i have the acer aspire d225 would this work on my netbook if i downloaded it off steam. It has windows 7 starter does that work??? thanks. (it has no disc drive)
HEEEELLLP!!! Ok I am gonna get an Acer Aspire One D150 with a 6-Cell Battery and 1.6GHz Atom thing. I would like to run a couple games just so when I'm bored on vacation or whatever I can type books and songs and play some games when I need a break or something. Is there anything special you need to do to play these games? Do I need to download something that allows me to run it or does it run right out of the box (or website cuz i mite dwnload it :P). THNX!
so i have the aspire1 like i bought it... i just wanna know if there are some drivers or something on Windows XP to increase the performances to play some games.... answer pls
@louisg7594 I know, they are not strong. But i think it was Compaq that made a netbook with a AMD CPU with 1 mb in cache memory. I think its pretty strong. But not cheap!
@Chrizler34 i am really pretty happy to hear that .. my friends are kinda obsessed by that game ... I am more into FPS ..so I bought MW2 and they keep playing dota..
@ExRools Maybe Steam uses up ram, get a program called Game Booster, it'll close useless processes that use up, thus giving you more ram space so you have more room for CS 1.6!
Hey i got conter strike and condition zero for my acer aspire one also and it ran perfect then all of a sudden none of my cs games run well, they are very choppy, and idea why?
i dont hav it through steam, i have it as a program file and a shortcut on my desktop (i right clicked on desktop 1 nd "set launch options" doesnt show) . what do i do then??
That is what steam is for, you can buy games online, download them, theyre connected to your account so you dont need cd`s, and if steam get deleted, you can download steam again, log in, and you can download your game again without a problem.
ORIGINAL cs requirements: 500 mhz processor, 96mb ram, 16mb video card, Windows 2000/XP, Mouse, Keyboard, Internet Connection. Counter strike source however wont run so well, but you can play on aim maps with caseys mod.
Was anybody of you able to play sme of the valve games using the new source engine, eg. Team Fortres 2? I know somebody who was able to run Left4Dead on his AAO.
RIFLE that's just not true. First though I'll mention that this is a netbook not a notebook/laptop. It's an itx mobo and atom cpu so inherently different. Many common notebooks allow dedicated graphics cards dvd/cd/ram/hdd/cpu upgrades. We don't all own compaqs you know. And for the enthusiast Asus sells the whitebook which is a build it yourself solution.
No actually most often its a simple screw maybe two and a cover is removed from the bottom and you insert the upgrade. Cpu upgrades are different but usually covered for free by the vendor. Asus whitebooks are modular by nature and can be "built" in no time flat.
if you run cs or any other online game the wifi card begins to crap out after 1 hour and neads a break for like another hour but just get a usb wifi card
(QUESTION) when you got yours did it have 1.5gb of ram or did you add the extra 512mb and if so did you try with just 1bg of ram or does it not make that much of a difference?
it actually came with 1GB RAM but i upgraded it to 1.5GB RAM. you can feel the difference by starting apps and exploring the Windows, RUNNING the apps there is not so much difference.
how do you add the extra 512mb of ram??? is it a memory card or did you have to do the thing where you take off the back and do all that stuff??? please respond!!!
It's not hard at all to install an extra ram module but you should take a lot of care while opening the PC and putting the parts appart, you have to look carefully where all the ribbons are connected to and have a lot of patience while doing it.
you can watch some guides for doing it on Youtube.
estimated total time for it is no more than 10 minutes.
Heh I Ran Need For Speed ProStreet On It And It Always Lags Until You Set Everyting On Low. BTW FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO WANNA KNOW HOW I DID IT ITS CALLED AN EXTERNAL DVD DRIVE TAPED TO THE BOTTOM :|
i also have a optical DVD drive connected to this kind of box that you find in a computer shop where you can plug an IDE drive and got a USB output to connect the device to any USB input.
well, actually it depends on the game your trying to play with, of course don't ever dream playing gta iv on this computer cause it won't just work, however, you could play games made before 2004-2005 without any problems :)
no absolutely not, you can also play games by having 1gb of ram, it's almost the same having 1gb than 1.5gb of ram, don't feel worried, you won't have any problem to run a huge quantity of games specially retro videogame systems roms such as n64 roms (they actually run quite well), snes roms, megadrive roms...

kiwiryannz 2 years ago
It will only effect CS. I think you need to right click CS in steam. Then under general tab, click "set launch options". Input this into the field:
-dxlevel 70
Then click okay.
If that doesn't work, try adding that to the a shortcut to CS on your desktop.
