Rfactor

[stig727]

hi,

 

just recieved rfactor for my birthday and went to install it. it installed fine but when i go to run it i get an error message asking me if i want to send the error report.

 

i have installed the f1 mod and patch and the march '08 skin pack part 1 2 and 3.

 

i am on windows xp and have installed direct x 9.0 from the rf disk (because it asked me to and yes the disk is legal)

 

how do i find out the rest of my pc settings like what ghz the processor is and what video ram i have etc? also the computer isnt very old so it shouldnt have much of a problem running rf.

 

any help always appreiciated

[stig727]

me again. i have 448 mb of ram where could i get a cheap upgrade??? (possibly by xmas)

[Hutch#331]

Download this CPUZ run it 4 times then select the tabs cpu, cache, mainboard and memory then screenie it

[stig727]

Whats it do? just dont like downloadign stuff ive never heard of, im not on x86 like the logo on the pages says.

[stig727]

Got this and this is what i got Results.zip and rfactor still wont run???

[stig727]

me again,

 

is RAM decided by what hardware the computer has or is it the amount of space on the computer? basically which is which RAM OR ROM???

 

also i need to get rid of and old chat instalation but when i go to uninstall it there is a problem with the uninstall.exe, should i just delete the files form the hard drive? i have tried removing it through control panel too.

A Sempron 2000 processor isn't very fast I'm afraid (4+ years old), and the fact you only have 448mb available means you don't have a real graphics card, but one that uses the main computer processor.

 

Also, your motherboard has an AGP slot, not PCI Express which means you are very limited to the graphics cards you can buy to fit into the computer.

 

By the time you've upgraded the parts to a decent spec you might as well have bought a new computer.

in other words, save up your money like i did and get yaself a decently spec'd computer custom built for ya.

[stig727]

Christ more money needs saving, 17 in a year, want plenty put away for driving lesons (ill need them)

[Lee]

15 in a year, if your that hard struck for cash then get a paper round and a part time job? then again you have school?

[Pedz 212]

download cpu-z and that will tell u all info about your pc spec and then repost spec m8 as that will help us

[Hutch#331]

Save up for a new pc or put it on your santa list as your pissing in the wind trying to make yours anybetter

[stig727]

[stig727]

have tried both resolutions and they both crash. he can get into a race but about 5 second in the monitor goes on standby and we have to ctrl alt del out of the game and close it.

[LittleLeech774]

AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 5200+ 2.70GHz

Memory(RAM) 1709GB

NVIDIA GeForce 6100 nForce 430 (Microsoft Corperation WDDM)

Graphics memory= 527MB

Video Memory= 256MB

 

Dont know what else you need to know tbh.

 

any help much appreciated

Cheers Craig

[F2sForever]

try turning all ur graphics down in game

 

[LittleLeech774]

didnt try that but i sorted it anyway

[wee dode]

its probably because its a crack...

[Lee]

if them smiley faces are all over it then (he didnt screenshot it so i dont know) then it most likely is one hence why it isnt working...

 

in other words everyone is saying spend that 20 quid and get the game properly (for it will be great fun to run you in when you do)

Memory(RAM) 1709GB - are you sure?

NVIDIA GeForce 6100 nForce 430 (Microsoft Corperation WDDM) - again, this is (or is at least the equivalent to) an onboard graphics card. Waste of time.
