We must know if it is compatible...The only way to do that is to find the exact model of the motherboard...
If you could ...download/run the system info utlilty from the link in my sig.
Follow these directions to save a log file in ".txt" format

-- and post it here at your convenience.

Will try it later when i finish work !
Many Thanks

If you can... just post the Hardware parts of the log-- That app will show you more than you know about your PC... we don't need the full report.

I will also say this... bargain-basement machines can rarely accept really high-end video cards ... a middle-ground one will probably work.
The rest of the hardware cannot keep up with what that card can do.


This is very difficult-- video games evolve-- at a fantasic rate.
You can build a smokin' fast (expensive) gamer rig-- and in 3-5 years it's old/unable to play the latest stuff. Gamers all try to plan for future upgrades to allow for this.
I am not trying to discourage you-- I am just saying that Video-Gaming is the most stessful thing you can do on any PC.
Building a Gamer-rig is best done from the "ground up"... not by conversion.
You actually get better performance at a more reasonable price-- by buying separate parts and building-- because there is no waste-- and you get better quality to begin with.... and everything is planned to work together from the beginning. Which, like anything--- is not as simple as it sounds.

Cheers i as i say i will do that when i get home , i have been told i can get this (i hope you will be able to confirm once i send the report)
PCI-e GeForce 8600gts - oc 256mb ?

Hi-- you did not save the report as a logfile-- I am unsure how with Belarc Advisor.

Go to this page:
SIW Download
click on either one of the English Versions (it is free )

Then follow the directions on this page SIW LOG

Save the file in ".txt " format
copy and paste the file in your next post.

Must have detailed hardware list to check compatibilty.

Will do , many thanks .
