could be the fact that you're still running windows 3.1 on your 486?
machine specs would help...

I just bought a new computer with one of the sassy new athlon 64 bit processors, 1 gig of ram and XP professional. The demo works fine, but the real program freezes before it ever gets going.

AMD = AID(s)
but really, check to see if your video card is one of the supported ones, it's listed on the box somewhere..if you're talking about q4 that is

GTR bah! LFS is the way to go, join me!
And as far as FPS go, I've never had more fun than good 'ol Marathon on the Mac. :wink: Ok, it sucks that you can't jump. :lol:

HAULN-SS Wrote:AMD = AID(s)You win the ignorant comment of the day award :roll: . While we are making biased comments without explanation, Intel chips are overpriced pieces of crap built upon an inferior architecture that frequently leave users with little to no upgrade path.
Hunter: Did you build the machine yourself or buy it from a vender?
I would try to update your video card drivers - would probably help out.

No upgrade path? Upgrade what? Why would you need to upgrade before the next gen processors were out anyway? It's pretty silly to upgrade from say 3.4 to 3.6 GHz

I find it quite nice to be able to almost double the processing power of my computer in 2 years time without having to buy a new motherboard. I went from a 1.4ghz T-Bird chip to a 2400+ on my last motherboard, and right now I'm running a 3500+ Athlon 64 in my system. When 4800 X2 chips (out right now) and faster drop to $150 to $200 price levels in 2 years I will have a nice upgrade path.
