The upsides were limited (I now recognise), for the games I enjoy, and the cost is prohibitive to getting a replacement. The cost of repairs is also extortionate.<br /><br />Of course, my laptop's battery is now non-functional, and so I'm limited to playing it as a pseudo-desktop. Life is full of bitter irony....<br /><br />I hope your new computer beats the challenges of New Eden for a long long while :)<br /><br />Rob K.Rob Kaichinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17972854173258346444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4159840807393856856.post-18522972738612445652015-08-10T12:47:26.143-04:002015-08-10T12:47:26.143-04:00When I was reading your last post about your lapto...When I was reading your last post about your laptop and the troubles you were having, the first thought that came to mind was "this sounds familiar..."<br />I was having the same types of issues back in March with my gaming PC, and in the end the problem was a dying (and eventually dead) motherboard. I ended up replace the motherboard, CPU and Ram, since my motherboard was fairly old (9 years or so) and I was still running on DDR2 Ram. Got a new modular power supply while I was at it, as I'd wanted one for a while, though replacing all this took me a while as I was unemployed at the time. It meant nearly 2 months of no Eve online as my laptop couldn't run the game at lowest settings and get anything better then 10fps. I had a feeling your laptop was heading down the same path as my computer did, and it seems I was right. Glad you were able to get your situation sorted out in a much faster time then I was.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16805065761222694665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4159840807393856856.post-85973555131718513392015-08-10T12:14:07.940-04:002015-08-10T12:14:07.940-04:00I'm in a similar situation.
