i'm sure the xp coa is a sticker on the unit, so he wouldnt charge any less without it (aka he doesnt want to take it off)4/7/2006 7:02:22 PM |

what do you need to know about the system? the res is 1024 * 768 currently, I assume that is the max but it may go one step higher. 4/8/2006 1:24:11 AM |

What is the condition of the batteries?
Do they come with the TV-out adapters? 4/8/2006 4:20:30 AM |
garfus99 All American 3984 Posts user info edit post |
all the batteries hold a full charge, no I do not have the TV out adapters with these laptops. 4/8/2006 9:53:21 AM |

Shared or dedicated video ram? 4/8/2006 1:41:44 PM |

SXGA Screen with 32 MB Dedicated video memory
30-day warranty, they are about 2.5 years old. 4/8/2006 7:59:52 PM |

Is that video card, or even just the video memory, upgradeable? I need 128MB. 4/9/2006 5:02:20 PM |
garfus99 All American 3984 Posts user info edit post |
I doubt that a video card upgrade is worth the effort, sorry but you better look elsewhere. 4/9/2006 8:57:06 PM |

^^no you dont. The amount of video memory on a laptop has virtually nothing to do with it's performance. 4/9/2006 9:07:54 PM |

^^Yeah, it was a long shot. Good luck and here's a free bttt.
^When the requirements for CivIV include 128 MB video RAM, I surely DO need 128 MB of video RAM. 4/10/2006 10:51:59 AM |

Civ4 will play on something with 64mb dedicated video memory, the wonder movies will just stutter... and odds are it will play on this laptop, just not smoothly. 4/10/2006 12:40:11 PM |

I tried installing it on a system with 32MB, but the faces wouldn't render. All we got were the eyes. It was creepy. Anyhow, as I have a choice in what I buy, and I'm really not a big fan of choppy video, I will go for the recommended specs. I'm patient, and I realy ought to be writing my thesis rather than wasting my time with CivIV, so I'm comfortable waiting around for the right system to pop up. 4/10/2006 1:17:10 PM |
