ChicagoCubs720 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 I opened the mailbox door and produced a small, light package. I took it inside and opened it up and was excited to see what was inside... it was my new, GeForce FX5500 PCI video card. My anticipation mounted as the time came near to open the box... I opened the box and found a large computerchip, covered in a tinted bag. It was time. I disabled my integrated graphics and turned off my computer. I opened it up and slid my video card into the last available PCI slot. Everything was ready. I turned on my computer and waited for the screen to show. It didn't... O, silly me, the VGA plug wasn't in all the way. Nothing. no screen. no nothing!!! I restarted my computer. my palms were sweating. would it work? If it didn't, I just wasted 70 dollars. . the screen loaded. Everything was fine. I loaded up MVP 05 and was happy to see Big Z taking the mound against the Cardinals with Helmet Reflections ON and a beautiful view of the game, with only a little bit of lag. thanks NYM91 for suggesting this card. It works great! I hope you all enjoyed my little story bring it on MVP 06!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirate Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 It's is a scary feeling when you slip that card in and start up the comp. It's like stealing the computer's virginity. I hope you can now enjoy my stadiums in full beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
