Thread: Little Help for L4D2 on PC

I recently purchased Left 4 Dead for my PC, but it doesn't run it very well and just has a black screen and freezes, is it a video card thing? Or what? I need help and don't want to waste my money Thanks all!

Oh and if it is a video card thing whats the cheapest one that I can purchase for it to work?

What's the graphics card?

You didn't post your GPU, which is basically the most important part of your PC for gaming

I may be looking at something else, but I just popped up an HP G60 on Google and it had integrated graphics. If you have a separate graphics card, then I'm just seeing something else. If you do have integrated graphics though, it'll say like up to 1309 mb total available. Unfortunately, you can't do much with the integrated shared graphics, so if I'm not just looking at the wrong specs, that's likely to be your problem. As far as getting a video card, if you can even change it in a laptop, it probably won't be worth the cost.

If what Fvr said is true, you really wont be able to play much of any games and your best bet would be to buy a new pc.
You can get a decent gaming desktop for $600, if you need a laptop it may be a little more expensive, and do research on the graphics card and processor before you buy them as well. Read reviews and make sure it's powerful enough for what you want to play for as long as you are going to own that computer before upgrading.

hope that helps X_X

Dammit Thanks everyone ha looks like I have some saving to do
