Hi Guys.

It might be a good idea for everyone to post your system specs, and how you get EAW to run on your rig.

I recon this info would be of great help to all Newbies, as they could check this thread, for a similar rig to their's, and read what solution worked for each different machine.

Here is my rig specs:

Hi Maj.

And you run EAW in D3D or Glide?

None of them Col., i've the screens/briefings problem but in game is running just fine. Since i don't care about that minor problem i am running EAW without them.

Cheers

Running 1.28e in D3D and Glide. (Glide has better FPS.)

i got the exact same specs as AO...so any EAW exe was never a problem, except its now an 8 years old Dimension 4600 series, seems like i can't run more than 1 program at a time now-a-days or the pc gets...

HP Media Center PCm7170n purchased in December of '05
Intel Pentium D (Dual Core) runs at 3Ghz
4 Gigs Memory
ATI Radeon HD4800 Saphire 512MB DDR3 Cataylst 10.3 Driver Packaging Version 8.712-100302b-096975C-ATI
Windows XP 32-bit media center with SP2

I run EAW in d3d using 24bit Multi-Skin Squadrons at 40-60plus FPS and test 8-bit using Zacks Glide wrapper
(it doesn't run as fast for me that way. But, still works very quickly).

You cas see my spects,

Never could get it to run with the glide program.

Runs fine in D3D, Runs in glide mod, Using D3D program.

OS : XP-SP3-Pro
Chip : celeron 2.1GHz
Memory : 2.00Gb RAM
Vid card : Nvidia 7600GS 256Mb
Driver set : 6.14.11.6375

I use the d3d mode and the D3D-windower which allows me to fly anything from 1.2 to 1.28E. Without the windower I can't fly 1.2 at all and get messed up half screen maps with the 1.28 series but can fly other than that.


cheers,

HP Pavillion dv6500 laptop.
Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit Service pack 2.
GeForce 8400M GS video 128 MB.

HP external monitor 1920*1080 max.
This card/driver combination does not give horizon fog so I use the nGlide Glidewrapper and never run in d3d unless testing exes.
Normally I set the resolution to 1280*960 and effectively run in a 4:3 window.
