Speaking of advertising, companies used to broadcast their ads inbetween frames. You can't conciously see the frame, but your subconcius records the information.

Unfortunately, it was banned, as it caused some people to, err... kill people.

>.<

I think I've seen Stefan say once that the server with 2001, Classic and N-Pulse on it is in the US.

I was goin to get a GForce GFX Card, but it wouldn't fit into my motherboard when I tried to install it... So, it was either get a specialy made one, for more money and less gfx, or get a new mother board, with more gfx, but alot more money... Anyway, Diablo II takes a full Gigabyte, so if Graal takes mor then that, wer all in some serious **** >.<

Actually, Excalibur, I am perfectly running Diablo II on my rather bad Pentium III 450, and it's running perfectly.

Bah. You people!! Maybe you guys haven't seen it run on a regular "old" system...? Because you wouldn't notice it because it still runs okay, just not as fast as my old computer's would.

Indeed, XP seems to have slowed down my Graal too.

Hmm.. might be a while before I can get my geforce3 card.

Slow on my 1.8 GHz Processor and the only way to speed it up? Run another app like Paint Shop Pro or Multimedia Fusion?! Umm is this a bug with the way Graal's memory is distributed or what?

It really doesn't matter how much speed you have. Its about how much RAM and what Video card you have. If I don't update my video card I am slow on graal, when I upgrade I am SUPER fast.

i have p4 1500+ mhz
ATI Radeon 7500 64mb
256 megs of ram
cable connection

and when i go full screen it runs superslow

Questa · #16 03-07-2002, 05:22 AM

Voodoo cards ARE nice. I love em, even though they are old

Try turning off firewall, ZoneAlarm is slowing Graal for me while I'm using it.

600MhZ Celeron
256 Megs of RAM
RAEDON ATI 32 Meg

That is MORE than enopugh to run high end games like CounterStrike, and Command and Conquer: Renegade. Something is wrong.

[edit] Forgot to mention, this is on a cable connection.[/edit]

Im using XPPRo... with 932MHz
1 GB of Ram
Cable - Road Runner
Geforce - Siluro ( i think) forgot wah...
and i dont lag on anything
