Hi All, I need some help with my PC,
I dropped my computer a few weeks back and am finally rebuilding it.
I now have the following Hardware:
- BIOSTAR Motherboard
- Memory 4 GB (2 x 2GB DDR800 RAM)
- On board Nvidia GeForce 7100 512MB / nForce630i
- Intel Pentium Dual Core E5200 @ 2.5Ghz (5.0Ghz)

I thought my Swat 4 would be amaizing with this spec but its crap!
Game play lags at first (not internet just user controls) and now it displays a "frame" work of graphics when loading game and no menu, so I cant even select the settings on swat 4 anymore!!!!
any Ideas...
- do I also need to get a designated Graphics Card aswell?
- Are there settngs that I need to adjust?
- Is the Hardware to good for the game?

Please someone help me...I want to get back on Swat 4....and kill you all ;-)
 
PC Should Work What Windows?? Driver Updates?? Directx Update?? If not then i will think later :) :P
 
Update every drivers and frames from your comp ...
Describe "frame work of graphic" and "crap"

Can you see the doors ? Or just weird flabby texture ? Can you run faster ? Can you lean ?
 
if i were u wouldn t buy this mother board becasuse its graphic card is not good for the future

processor : corei7 check this processor it s the best
 
i just bought today the same processor(E5200) coz it was cheap..i will overclock it, but first i need a good fan! :P
 
thanks for your replies,

Running: Windows XP Pro (service pack 2)
Driver: Direct X9.0c

"Frame work of graphics" = before Nvidia Logo appears an image of two buildings appear but they appear as lines only (black background - white lines) abit like a "mesh or wire" drawning before adding the textures.

"crap" = mouse actions and movments with delay at all times on game, even menus, alittle like when you have a computer that can just manage to play the game and you change the settings to "high" but your computer cannot handle a smooth play.

"No Menu" = once Swat has loaded and the menu for settings, join game...... normally appears, well I now have no menu or text, just the animated background - the menu is missing. and yes I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling over 5 times!! lol

thanks all.
 
Finally back on Swat 4!!
Got a new card - XFX GeForce 9400 GT
sorted my issues out instantly.

Thanks all for your help and support.
 
never use the graphic controller on your motherboard for games, it's shit, this is a good idea to get a videacard, even if 9400 isn't the best ;P
 
better graphic card doesnt help. If u play 1600x1200 with max all maybe but if u play 1280x1024 its the same. I had 1950Pro and bought a new one , a 4870 . It doesnt give me any extra in SWAT. In cod and other games its better. But since i have 3800+ cpu i cant use dx10. With new pc i would probably get more out of my 4870 card. Asus motherboard , 3800+ , 4gb ram and 4870 graphic card. Time to upgrade maybe , but its so nice and never gives me any problem :P)
