Most games require that you have an ATI X800 or NVIDIA 6800 display adapter with 256 MB of RAM. Does this mean that I need to get a new video card or just a downloadable/purchasable driver or program? Please help me because I really don't want to spend money I don't need to!

i'm trying to create a program that will tell whether a string of characters is a palindrome. how could i assign the characters so that the first letter will equal the last letter and the 2nd will equal the 2nd to last and so on? if anyone knows how and could provide an example, that would be awesome.

Trying to make a spreadsheet where a column of "codes" need to stand for a dollar amount. example: TS=$5.00 and TB=$10.00. I need it where I can set up cells later, where someone can enter TS, TS, TB and it will figure out the sum, which would be $20.00 (TS+TS+TB). I know how to do the sum part, but how do I format the cells so that like TS, which is in cell A1 stands for the dollar amount in B1??? So that later when someone puts TS in a cell, it looks at it as being $5, and not TS. helllllllllllllllllllllp!!!!

Has any one heard of the above?
I've had the chance to use it this week! Fabulous stuff. this thing is virtually indestructible technology! Basically works on a server and client basis. saves a lot of money and really safe to surf any turf (and i really mean any!)
I've got contact with the person in charge of it. anyone interested let me know and if you have a virus that you think can crack that system pass it on or...come along....i've been promised a free return ticket to mauritius.....make it yours
anyway i think its one to watch! what's the views?
any1?

This is probably a dumb question, but I'm wondering if I can upgrade my NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 with a 8600 GTS series.

Now, I have a PCI Express x16 slot. What I'm thinking is the NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 is intergrated because I can't find a graphics card for it. Would I just uninstall the graphics drivers I have now and insert an 8600 GTS in the PCI-Express slot and be alright?

Other notes: AMD Anthlon 64 X2 Dual Core 3800+ 1.87GB Ram.

If you could also let me know if I'm able to use an 8600 GTS card with that, that would also be helpful. Thanks!

I just bought some RAM and my PC will not read it. The order form that came with my PC when I purchased it says my PC has DDR SDRAM 512MB (PC3200 Samsung) already in it. i wanted 512 more so when I went to the shop, and showed them my form, they pointed at some RAM for me to buy>D2PC400CL25-512MB (PC3200). i trusted the PC dude and when i got home and installed the RAM, my PC would not recognize it was there. this is very frustrating, i even tried putting the RAM in a different way and it made my PC not turn on so i just basically took the RAM out full of hatred and rage. is this the right type of RAM for my PC? did i get the wrong type?

I read the "EULA", agreement and there are parts that state, "you will allow third party advertisements".

Can any one please tell me if they know for sure that only "Joost", registry keys are installed. I don't wish to have packet of unknown spam registry keys installed at the same time "Joost", is installed in my registry.

Thanks in advance
