So forza 5 60FPS, and this is 30 FPS? Pullleeeze

Does the same happen if you hook up an external monitor? Could have damaged something internally.

So much for Wii U being twice as powerful as xbox 360. Nintendo will never learn.

Got a USB cd drive that you can test with? It could be drivers, but i would lean more towards an issue with the CD drive itself. The windows boot floppy should have loaded a proper driver when you attempted that. Thats what leads me to believe the drive might be bad. That win 98 cd is bootable?

try hitting f11 or f12 during boot to see if it will give you a boot menu. That is an OLD laptop. Will really chug along. Those came with pentium 233 or so MHZ processors and 16BM ram if you are lucky :)

Many laptop cd drives can be removed. If yours is one of those, try re-seating the drive. Take it out and slide it back in.

jtt283Script kiddies throwing tantrums and fanatical Islamic extremists are two entirely different beasts. But if you put the two together, then you have a problem.

Or go to a command prompt and run chkdsk /r on the drive. Upon reboot it should run a thorough scan and attempt to repair any files system issues. EDIT:House beat me to it!

This is why PC development will continue to take a backseat and console gaming will not die.

The sad part is my current gen PC I just upgraded will still outperform and be well ahead of this when it releases. But hey if your 12 this is great news. Oh and my specs are: 2700K @ 5ghz 16Gb DDR3 1600 2 GTX 580s 3Gb versions in SLI 2560 x 1600 Resolution (that blows away 1080p boys) IPS...

Its going to happen so just embrace it. Hopefully it will give devs a good reason to make multiplatform games that much better for the PC elite. But I want facts! And i dont want a weak next Gen Console.

IF the next xbox cant do what the new unreal engine demo showcases, then i will be dissapointed.THough i doubt it will be able to touch it.

MEh, only a handful of devs know how to make decent games for this thing. And even veteran devs dont get the full potential out of it. Look how long Gran Tourismo took, and it has horrible aliasing and screen tearing, and doesn't even run 1080p natively. It plays a mean Blue Ray though.

Anyone notice those swollen capacitors in the pic? RROD anyone?
