WOOHOO!
« on: February 18, 2008, 10:13:01 »

Well to be more specific with the woohoo. I have now got a decent graphics card that can run ship ship 08 and on high graphics  ;D.

I have bought a MSI NVIDIA GEFORCE NX7600GT 512mb (agp8x) and it works like a charm.
 I have been waiting for this day a long time and i could actually see the water. (finally  :-\)

Cheers, Matt

Hi Matt.

Glad to hear that you've got the card now. I assume the installation went without problems as well?

If not and you had any obstacles to overcome, please let us know as others may benefit from your exepiences.

Anyhow, enjoy the game!

That's a connection issue usually Matt, it may help to use a Download Manager, something like GetRight ;)

I'd recommand DownThem All, which is quite similar to GetRight, except it works only for FireFox ... But it is freeare !

Hmm....the CPU maybe ??? ;D

Joking aside, you would need to check which model of Motherboard you have, because the specs of that will determine what your board can handle ;)

Very very soon I will be the next one to use the terms (WOOHOO) Now I have the same MSI NVIDIA GEFORCE NX7600GT 512mb (agp8x) But will change very soon to the new one with 1gb.

The quality today is good.
My problem is not on the Questviewer and SS is with the HYDRA with VTS system, Digital radio system and weather system all in the same program.
