Troubleshoot Computer Problems with Games

0

Video games have come a long way since 1947 when the first computer game was invented. The years of plugging in your console and tapping remotes have taken a side seat to the all-inclusive personal computer.

Today’s personal computing devices such as a desktop computer or laptop computers have given a new light at which people can play large complicated video games. In fact, people can actually play these games against opponents who are located across oceans. Given the fact that these games require the majority of your machines computing power just to play, sometimes, as you can imagine problems with the program and your machine may arise.

Understanding Your Games Demands on your Machine

Just because your machine has a name brand tattooed on its hood, doesn’t mean it’s the best machine for your game. Every Game purchased today tells you exactly what it needs to run seamlessly. Whether it’s the amount of system ram or the amount of video memory, each game demands a different set of criteria from your machine.

Most the time video game manufactures understand the types of systems that are readily available when they push a game out to the market. With this being said, it’s important to know how old your machine is. This can give you an idea as to whether or not your machine will have the specs your desired game requires. Keep in mind this is not a tried and true method but it can serve as a good technique if you run across a good deal on a game and you don’t have your machine specs memorized.
Video is where it’s at

Rest assured today’s pro gamers wouldn’t be nearly as enthusiastic about playing their favorite game if the games didn’t have the visual effects that they have today. Your video card in your computer is a lot like the tires you place on your car. Manufacturers wouldn’t place mud bugger tires on a formula one race car just the same as they can’t and won’t place the graphics chip in your cell phone on your new i8 laptop. This being said it’s safe to say a new i8 lap top wouldn’t need to be adjusted for a new game but an older game may not work with the great graphics accelerator that came with your new machine. It’s OK to match the necessary resolution or your machine to the games specs even if it’s quite less than your machine can handle.

Use the WEB

Most pro’s believe this is the most underutilized source for assistance. In fact most people who call in company help centers could find the information faster and more reliably if they had just gone on the company’s web site and searched for frequently asked questions.

Blogs pertaining to specific video games can most likely pin point exactly what the issue is and assist getting you up and playing in no time.

If you still can’t figure it out

Ok, every once in a while even the pros can get stumped. The truth is machines are still machines and not to be without fault. Sometimes the best thing to do is just start over, try uninstalling and reinstalling the game. We know this isn’t the most elegant response to how to get a game to work but sometimes it beats the old 5 pound Sears hammer you have out in your garage. There have been many cases of people restarting a computer to find the most serious errors just fixed. No explanation and no trace of anything ever being wrong.
