  • Windows Vista

    I'm going to be buying a new comp soon and the one I like has Vista. I have no accessories like printers etc, and I mostly want to play CivIV and other games. Will getting the dreaded Vista cause me problems?

        That's it? Kuci says no..and you believe him?
        Buy it with no O.S. and load XP, then wait 5 years.

          It's the 210. Think it will run CivIV ok?

            I accept what anyone says regarding comps.

            What you suggest requires me to actually do something besides load a game. That's bad, I could blow something up.

              Integrated graphics might be a problem. You should probably upgrade to a full graphics card (i.e. not Intel).

                The other option is to buy a Gateway on which one can have XP loaded for an additional $60 I think.

                    When you go through all the steps where you customize the components, just select a real graphics card instead of the Intel chip.

                              It's kickin my ass. I had no idea how out of shape I've gotten, and I'm almost 50.
