HP dv2000

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Hey Guys,

I just purchased an HP dv2000 notebook from Best Buy. The specs are as follows:

ATI Turion processor 1.9ghz
2 GB RAM
160 GB HDD
DVDRW/CDRW super drive w/ light scribe
Nvidia 7150M Integrated graphics w/ up to 156 MB shared memory.

I installed Neverwinter Nights 2 on the system which it runs pretty poorly. To get it playable you have to run it at 800x600 resolution with just about every effect turned off. I wondered if the integrated graphics system in the computer is really that poor. I currently have it set to share up to 128MB or memory for video, would giving it more memory increase performance.

From what I have read the 7150M being integrated isn't a gaming card by any means but it should run older games, like Neverwinter Nights 2 decently and supposodly runs games liek Guild Wars and WOW very well. Any ideas? Think the laptop would even run UT3?

u have a very decent-to-very-good laptop. clean up ur comp configuration (startup processes/services), get a faster drive whenever u can and it will not let u down

browse the net on "tweaking performances" and apply to it where u see, and it will fly for u

cheers ...
