  • What would you suggest that I update on my computer?

    I got a hold of a pretty nice computer, but I don't know what to do to make a platform game "evolutionary" (at the lowest possible cost).

    Here are my current features:

    Make/model: Dell Precision T3500

    MFG Date: 26/06/2010

    Processor: Intel Xeon W3540 @ 3.2 Ghz (Hyper Threaded image)

    RAM: 24 GB PNY @ 1600 Mhz DDR3

    Fans: Dell Stock

    PSU: 525 Watt

    Graphics card: Force3D Radeon HD 6450 (2GB GDDR5)

    Network connection: Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx series (Gigabit)

    Storage: 256GB OCZ Vertex SSD 4

    Anyone have any ideas? I think that the graphics are the biggest bottleneck.

    Future proof depends on how long into the future, and that your expectations about eye candy

    and performance. It may be these dogs running after the experiences of the tail.

    You can opt for another AMD card. Something like a 270 R9 or 270 x would give a helping hand

    for game performance. These cards are low/medium of mid-range, respectively.

    Power supply - depends on which of the two versions provided with this unit.

    The model 85 + money would be desirable, as a 525W PSU is close to the minimum capacity for a

    R9 270/270 X that has a minimum of 500W (suggested minimum of Gigabyte).

    -A good quality all about 600W power would be necessary with a 280 R9 or 280 X.

    You should read a few comments (material, not NewEgg or Amazon sites) to compare the performance between the above four maps, or the 260 series if you want something less expensive.

    Case - determine the case is deep enough at the back of the HARD drive to the back cage

    for the card to fit. Some cards can be very long.

    There is no "request" in itself, and according to which browser and the device is used, this could end by into a mess of different options of incorporation. So to save your sanity upload your files to a service like Soundcloud and use their built-in widgets and code.

  • Why do I suddenly have 2 editions of Word in my computer? And they have all my files listed. How can I delete one without losing all my files?

    When I open a file to someone else, yesterday, he downloaded a second edition of Word on my computer.  I deleted the icon, but she returned when I connected again, taking several minutes to open.  I can only find an edition of Word basics.  But the two icons take me to the Word program, and two, I see all my files.  What should I do, please?

    Hi Chris,

    I see that you have problems with more than a word icon. I'll help you with this problem.

    Please ensure that only one icon is present on the desktop. You can remove the icon of other words. Remove the icon will not affect documents that you have created.

    You need to right click the icon you want to remove and select Delete. This will remove the icon on the desktop and move it to the trash. You can empty the trash later.

    I hope this helps.

  • Downloaded 4 fonts on my computer and all the files unpacked, but says I have to wait until Windows is finished with the files

    Hi Clarissa Tan.

    1. What is the complete message you receive?
    2. Which site did you download the fonts on the computer?

    Method 1

    I suggest you to use the link below to download new fonts on the computer and check if it helps.

  • My computer deleted all my files of Documents

    When I went to sign in my computer this morning, I noticed that almost all of my files in downloads had been removed. No one touched my computer for several days, so I was wondering what had happened. I restarted my computer and when I did, everything was gone.

    All the photos, documents, music - it's all over now, and I don't know how or why. The background is over and is a black solid, and all shortcuts and documents/pictures/movies/files that were on the desktop are now also gone. Another thing I noticed, that I use the feature often enough, is that the small desktop icon in the toolbar (which minimizes everything automatically and displays only the office) has disappeared as well.

    I tried to do a system restore, but realized that my computer did not control points, so I have no recourse in this area either. It's really horrible, and I don't know who I should ask, windows or my PC manufacturer (Gateway), for help. I'm afraid that if I restart my computer once again, everything (programs, etc.) will be gone. Help, please.

    If you do not want to restart... disregard of the

    Newbie question.

    I created a page template master for a title page that I want now apply to all the files in my collection of books (about 5 books, files + 30).  How can I do this?

    The page has a picture full page and different margins.

    I would like to try force brute (re-create manually in each file) but it's almost a stroke of luck that I managed to do things at first.

    I see there is a way to import pages of reference - what template?

    Thank you!

    There is an inconsistency in the 'traditional' in the name: Master Pages are called "Layouts" in the import Formats dialog box.
