My computer wont even recognise the game. Why?

this really sucks, I just finally got the game....

Beirut 01:36 03-19-2007

Do you mean your machine isn't reading the disk at all and you can't install or the game crashes as soon as you start it?

Motep 01:38 03-19-2007

[quote=Beirut]your machine isn't reading the disk at all and you can't install quote]

That one

Assuming your DVD reader works when you try other disks in it, I think you have to try the game in another DVD reader to see if the DVD itself is FUBAR.

My dearest Lord Motep of Kendermore... are you trying to read a DVD in a CD reader?

The good part is you can get a DVD reader pretty cheap. And you will need it in the future. (As well as right this minute it seems.)

!@#$

What country are you in? Maybe one of our esteemed members can offer some sound advice that befits your financial situation.

The U.S of A

Motep 01:59 03-19-2007

It will cost around 20 bucks....more than we will have in a few weeks

now its just a question of returning the game, or holding out for god knows how long...

Beirut 02:35 03-19-2007

Well, maybe one of your fellow Americans has a good idea for a cheaper option.

Might as well hold on to the game. You'll need it.

Csargo 02:54 03-19-2007

You could always save up your lunch money for a week or two and not eat at school.

BlackAxe3001 04:13 03-19-2007

Or just steal it from the other kids...

(not recommended)

Also, take a loan from your parents. Feed them some crap about being responsible with money or something and that you want to show them that by taking a loan for $30 or whatever. Do whatever it takes! Owning m2tw but not being able to play it is just wrong!

Husar 13:04 03-19-2007

19 or 20$ shouldn't be all that much, you may really want to ask your family whether they could help you out and loan it or so.

I pay 40 cents a day. Great way to get four dollars.

They dont have $30 either. Besides, that crap fails on them.

They have decided to get one in about two weeks

BlackAxe3001 13:42 03-20-2007

Good deal. Another question for you Motep: Since you don't have a DVD drive, are you sure the rest of your hardware in your computer has the horsepower to run m2tw? I just want to double check. I hate for you to spend money on a DVD drive and then the rest of your hardware wont be able to run m2tw.

I barely meet the minimum...

Judge 19:15 03-20-2007

We are kinda poor. Its not like my mom does not make alot of money, it's just that there are 6 people to provide for, heavy doctor bills, house bill, and other @#$%ed up bills. I'd be lucky to get a $40 vidio game for my birthday, let alone a computer.

Caius 22:54 03-20-2007

Heh, his mother wont let he mod.

BlackAxe3001 23:17 03-20-2007

Hey man, why don't you post your specs and we will tell you what you could upgrade for real cheap to make it better. At least have a wish list or something...

Motep 01:12 03-24-2007

Eh...im sick of loking for them now. Anyways, the wish list thing is always blatantly ignored.

Slug For A Butt 14:36 03-24-2007

Dude, post your specs. I may have a mobo, processor and ram coming free in a week or so. And if they are better than yours now, you are welcome to them. They run M2TW at the mo, so they maybe of use to you.

Caius 19:53 03-24-2007

Talking about M2TW

I had read about requirement and I dont meet the lesser than minimum.

Motep 02:38 03-25-2007

Oh @#$%! I only have half of what the game needs (minus hard disk space)

Ram:256
64 Mb
128 DDR
300-some gigs hard disk space

Slug For A Butt 09:48 03-25-2007

I'll be having an Athlon Thouroughbred 2000+, Asus A7N8X-X, 1* 512Mb PC2700 and 1* 512Mb PC3200 and a PSU coming free soon. If they are any good to you I'll post 'em as long as the shipping costs aren't a killer (heh, maybe not a good idea to send the PSU then

)
Maybe someone else may have an old dvd rom or graphics card rotting away in a drawer somewhere?

PM me your zip code and I'll check it out.

How much that will cost?

Slug For A Butt 14:25 03-25-2007

Nothing. And I'll cover the postage as long as it isn't crazy. I just hope some other people may have stuff left after upgrading too.
