My laptop is only 2 years old, but it appears to suck when it comes to games, even games a 2 or 4 years old. Can I tweak it at all? Dell cant seem to make up their mind. Some folks say it is integrated and others Dell tech staff say it's not. I think they are all *****s with 3-ring binders chained to their wrists.
I usually play a first-person shooters, typically stuff that is a year or 2 old so I can get it cheap of eBay. Currently sitting (unplayed cause my 2-year old computer can’t play them) are Riddick Butcher Bay, Thief Deadly Shadows, and Assassin’s Creed. Would like to upgrade my Inspiron E1705 Laptop, but Dell says impossible with their integrated video cards.
Budget: $100(in U.S.)
1. Motherboard - Dell 0FF049
2. Graphic interface – Mobile Interl(R) 945GM Express Chipset Family – 224Mb
3. Memory – DDR2 2Gb RAM
4. CPU – Intel Mobile Core 2 Duo T7200 @ 2Ghz
5. CPU Speed - (CPU-Z shows it flipping between 1997 and 998 Mhz every second or so)
6. Power Supply Make/Model - I honestly see nothing with this info on the bottom of the laptop? Do I need to take the thing apart?
7. Watt output/Amperage – Ditto above.
Currently running XP.
Can it be done?
Thanks,
Allec
