ok, I thought it'll be a nice idea to compare each other systems:

mine is 43% of the systems scanned by the Game Advisor rank higher in performance than your system.

What is your?

go to http://www.microsoft...or/default.mspx and click of system scan to see your results.

NOTE: the website Requires the use of IE and the install of an ActiveX, its MS, what do you expect :wallbash: ?

Can't we just list our parts? I dislike IE, and I harbour a blantant distrust for ActiveX.

yes you may, its just to see your system compared with not only this community, but worldwide :dry:

Hehe, mine says:

Internet Explorer 6 required
Windows XP Game Advisor requires the use of the Windows 98/ME/2000/XP operating system and the Internet Explorer 6 browser

guess microsoft says 100% of the systems are better than mine, eh? They dont seem to like Fedora Core 4 and Firefox 1.0.6 :)

[Nodlehs]

Your system is among the top 8% of all systems scanned by the Game Advisor.

I go dual boot for things just like this, as well as windows gaming :) Normally running linux though... I actually had to update my windows to run that thing though.

My work PC: Your system is among the top 21% of all systems scanned by the Game Advisor.

/me is going to uninstall that stupid ActiveX component that was just installed

Bah, installing ActiveX would be a waste of precious Bandwidth. I have a 2800+ running on an NF7 with a Radeon 9600. I am upgrading to a 3500+ on a K8-SLI with dual nVidia 6600s, each with 256mg of RAM.

Your system is among the top 12% of all systems scanned by the Game Advisor.

Processor AMD Athlon™ 64 2203MHz
Display Card ATI RADEON 9600 Series
Memory 512MB
Display Card Memory 128MB

My PC was the cheapest I could find, I bought it more than .5 years ago in a german discount supermarket :) (I dislike hardware and I didn't even know my configuration, probably is the microsoft thing just lying to me)

[NomadRock]

I've got an Athlon XP 3000+ and 1GB memory at 400GHz on an NForce2 board. I use an Nvidia 6600gt with 128BM video memory

after reading the specs above, I feel shy posting my system specs :sad:

AMD Athlon XP 1.6 GHz
512 RAM
GeForce 4 MX 64 MB

I love my machine 'cause I mainly use it for old-school programming and gaming so, yeah, I can say my machine is the best!

I love my laptop:

266 MHz
96 MB ram
4 GB hd
no gpu...

Its buried in the basement somewhere, but it played Unreal Tournament almost OK. Hated to use the mousepad for that, though...

Ouch!

[Methulah]

Nomad, you have the exact same system as a my friend and partner in game development crime.

[Rydinare]

I think we can agree that my work system is the worst. I went to the run the ActiveX and it crashed my computer. LOL.

I have a feeling it would've said something like "bottom 10%". My work computer is a P3, probably very little ram, terrible video card, etc... :closedeye

[SpreeTree]

Wow, I am the bestestest ever machine!
