Hello Escapist Community My goal in life is to become a pro-gamer, I also have problems with my weight, so to help kill two birds with one stone as some people say, I will be punishing myself for bad play by exercising. To do this properly I am making a chart that I will be hanging up...

Hello Escapist Forum I have recently upgraded to a smaller keyboard, I'm not used to where the keys are which winds up leading to a lot of typos when I use a normal sized keyboard for a while, I was wondering if anyone knew of a program to get the fingers used to the key locations. Any...

Final Post on this subject, I figured it out! The cpu was not given power, novice mistake which will not be made again. Thanks for any help given.

Okay, I made a bad mistake, I did not notice that I had to plug the power supply in to a slot a tad above the CPU to power it, I did that and now there is a red light on the side of the motherboard. Here is what it looks like now.

I tried to listen for beeps but heard nothing, I've tried both of the connecters but no luck, I moved the ram around and only put one in and that seems fine. The graphic cards fan is spinning, I'm not sure if it has enough power though, and I don't know how to tell if the processor is running...

The motherboard doesn't have a built in video card to begin with so yes,I can verify that, this isn't the first computer I've built also.

Hello escapist forum I've been building a computer over night and I am having issues with the fact that I have no video, the fan on the graphic card is spinning but it's not giving out a signal, any troubleshooting ideas? Here is my build--

The hard drive was only purchased 3 months ago and it has a TB on it so I am sure it will be fine, if there is a problem we will just order a new one. Thanks for the check, she doesn't seem to worry about the price because after I sent her the cart she asked me to include a new monitor hah...

I'm not sure how to post it but I'll wait for your check before I send her the list.

Can you confirm that all those items will work together?

Read the post underneath yours. Thanks for the reply.

Here's the deal, a big reason she wants to upgrade is because her younger grandchildren want to play some pc games but the computer can't handle them and I don't want to get personal but the only way they could play the game or two they've bought would be on her computer. I also visit her two or...

Hello Escapist Forum, I have been working on a cart for my grandma, she seems to always have problems with her 6 year old Dell computer and she wanted to upgrade. She doesn't want to spend much so I went for the cheap but up to date material. I already have Windows 7, a spare disk drive, and...

hmm I played the other Mount & Blade games, the problem I had with them is that they'd end up feeling like the same thing over and over in an artificial rpg system. Not sure if this game makes things a bit less of the same thing over and over, I'll watch some stuff on it. Thanks for the suggestion.

I agree, that's why it's on my "I own" list. Makes me wish I saved the game to play now.
