Can my T61 run Left 4 Dead 2?

Hi,
I want play Left 4 Dead 2 on this laptop. However, I'm kind of a novice at computers and stuff, so I don't know if my computer will be able to handle it.
Can someone please tell me if I can handle it?
Thank you

As mentioned, we'd need to know not only the game specs, but your T61 specs too, but if you have a T61, not a T61p, then you have one of two graphic cards, either the Intel integrated grapics, which will NOT play this game, or the nVidia Quadro NVS140m discrete graphics, which "may" work. They say nVidia Gforce is supported, so it may or may not work. I would post in the games forum or contact their support and ask them. If you open device manager and look at your graphic adapters, it will tell you if you have Intel or nVidia.

Is Mac Mini able to run Left 4 Dead well?

I'm considering getting a Mac Mini, which will be my first Mac computer, besides that one that's black and white and had the really fun painting application, beside the point though, looking to get a Mac Mini
I was going to get the less expensive of the two "basic" models and upgrade the RAM to 2 or 4 gigs, but a major concern for me is if it will be able to run a game like Left 4 Dead, or other games with similar requirements, I don't know why, but it seems to me the name just sounds like it's not very powerful... I went over the specs, but I don't know what's good anymore, especially not with video cards, last video card I had was a ATI 500 something or other, since then I've had the misfortune of working with laptops, and have never used a NVIDIA card before so don't know much about thier numbering scheme..
Anyway, sorry for the long winded post, I have a horrible tendency to do such things
edit just occured to me, this is in the wrong place, *wanders off to figure out where it needs to go*
Ok, new question, where the heck are the regular just... forum-y forums?

Wow, I'm so surprised that this is still on the front page AND has over a thousand views...
I suppose I'll give an update, considering I'm here..
I got the cheaper model, and it ran WoW well enough, 60 FPS in dead areas, 20 in Dalaran, unfortunately after a few addons/if I had ANYTHING running in the background, stuttering was very bad
As for L4D, there are times when I can tell it's having issues, but I was honestly having more problems with my internet connection not being up to snuff than the machine.
Last week I bought 4 gigs of ram, and upgraded it, I can now say that my mac mini is probably the ugliest Mac product ever, the bottom side of it has over a hundred scratches, leftover putty, and I'm pretty sure I messed up some of the pins (though, that could just be my imagination), if you can't handle a single scratch on your mini, I'd def get the pros to upgrade your ram
On the inside, the mini is really fantastic, the way they put all that in there, just amazing, pictures really don't do it justice, will say though, foam is magic for the small formfactor machines apparently, there was quite a bit of foam doing things such as reducing noise, vibration, and directing air flow. And those snap off connectors were awesome, I accidentally got the Airport's wire wrapped around something, and when I pulled the top part off, it actually pulled out, which led to several seconds of "omigawd what did I just do?!" then realizing it just pops back
I'm sorry, I just.... went off on a tangent there, but, haven't gotten a chance to try L4D yet, but now I get 60 FPS in Dalaran full of people, 30 FPS recording, but I that's what I capped it at, and this was in/around Dalaran as well, view distance 50%, Environment detail 100%, and I can listen to iTunes on the Mac Mini's speakers now, working slowly on upgrades for it, unfortunately due to various tech things dying on me it's slow going

Can you guys play Left 4 Dead with Forceware 175.97?

Hi, there! The problem is: When I double-click the icon of L4D, a window appears with the message:"failed to creat D3D device"
I guess it's the problem of graphic driver. But this is the latest driver I can get from lenovo. Did you guys meet the same problem? or
can give me some advice. Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi, thomas. Good news: problem solved! Here is the way: go to your L4D folder, open the subfolder called "left4dead", then open "cfg"
folder, open the text file called "videodefaults", under "setting.fullscreen" this line, change "1" to "0". save it. Run the game, the game will start with windowed
mode at this time, if you want it to run under fullscreen mode, then you can change to fullscreen mode under game options.That's how
to solve this problem. Have fun!
ps: As far as i know, seems all T61 T61p and R61 with Nvidia Quadro NVS 140m or Nvidia Quadro FX 570M have this issue...
pps: Sorry, I accidently chose your reply as solution.

Left 4 Dead 2 on MacBook Pro ?

Hey i'm planning to buy Left 4 Dead 2 on steam, and i have the 13 inch macbook pro,
Here are my macbook's spec:
Processor : 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory : 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Startup Disk : Macintosh HD
Graphics : Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
Software : Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2
Can it run Left 4 Dead 2? Thanks

I don't know about the 13 inch model. That machine is known for having less-capable graphics hardware. Of course, L4D2 isn't exactly a cutting-edge game, either, and it's based on an engine that was used in older games as well. (Not that I mean that as an insult, I think that all of Valve's games based on that engine are great... the graphics are quite good, the physics are great and, most importantly, the gameplay is awesome.)
Here's what its system requirements are:
OS: MacOS X 10.6.4 or higher (Snow Leopard Graphics Update required)
Processor: Dual core Intel processor, 2GHz or better
Video Card: ATI Radeon 2400 or higher / NVIDIA 8600M or higher / Intel HD Graphics 3000
Not supported: OS X 10.5.x, ATI X1600 or X1900 graphics, NVIDIA GeForce 7 graphics or Intel graphics less than Intel HD 3000
That does seem to include your machine, so it may be worth a try.

Can a T61 with a Santa Rosa platform run Vist 64-bit, or do you need a Penryn platform?

Can a T61 with a Santa Rosa platform run Vista 64-bit, or do you need a Penryn platform?
I have been told that the Santa Rosa platform cannot handle Vista 64-bit.
Thank you!

I thank you very much, Steve and Don!
I had been speaking with a Lenovo tech support agent earlier today, who had advised, "a Santa Rosa platform cannot run Vista 64-bit".
I know. It did not make sense to me either. I guess the Lenovo agent was a newbie.
I appreciate the clarification!
PS: I wish that I could have both responses marked as solutions.

Satellite L500-1ZC - Left 4 Dead 2 is lagging

Hi, I was wondering if anybody can help me fix my lag in Left 4 Dead 2.
I have an average fps of 10-20 on all maps. I run it on the lowest resolution, lowest settings and even tried using files that help with the lag. I do not have this problem on any of the other Steam games, only on Left 4 Dead 2.
Can anybody suggest anything? Thanks.

Hey,
You know that your model is only equipped with Intel graphic card?! I mean such Intel cards are not designed for gaming, they are only a good choice for Windows and mobile usage because they dont have much 3D performance
Everything what you can do is installing the latest display driver and using lowest graphic settings of your game. Furthermore you should choose the High Performance mode for playing games.
Unfortunately I think your graphic card is not powerful enough for this game :(
Check the requirements of your game!!!

New Left 4 Dead game server

As my Infinity broadband is so much better than when I was with Virgin I decided to run my own game server on my line.
I am now hosting a new 22 slot l4d game server, so if anyone here plays l4d give it a try.
[United]22 C0-0P Left 4 Dead[HM]
Or you can check out my new forums at gamesunited.eu
I Also have player stats installed.

Welcome to the forums!! Glad to have someone enthusiastic around!
And yes, you're in the right place to make gaming announcements. All we've been hearing about the last few weeks has been about the Sims 3 from Dorothy (she gets really excited about her games).
So, yeah, welcome again! Have fun checking out the forums!
Don't take what I say as being absolute. There's always room for improvement.

"Computer restarted because of a problem" crashes when playing Left 4 Dead 2 and Portal 2

My MacBook Pro 2011 keeps on crashing and restarting itself when playing 15 minutes or so of Portal 2 or Left 4 Dead 2 through Steam.
I get a warning saying something along the lines of "The computer restarted because of a problem etc..." and then the MBP boots back up.
I've verified and repaired the disk and its permissions and I reset the PRAM (as recommended in a couple of blogs I found).
I just loaded L4D2 up and 5 mins in the crash happens again. This time the system rebooted without the warning screen I mentioned before.
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening or how to prevent it? I can't seem to find any conversations directly related to Steam or the 2 Valve games causing this crash.
I used to run a Windows partition on the MBP through Bootcamp. That never had any issues running games but I recently removed it to free up some space.
I'll post my error report below in another post if that helps.
Thanks!

Ever since the systyem upgraded me to 3.6.6. I can not even run one eight hour day without firefoc either crashing or locking up which requires me use C/A/Deleate to close the program. I used to be able to run 8 to 12 windows at a time and NEVER lock up

Ever since the systyem upgraded me to 3.6.6. I can not even run one eight hour day without firefoc either crashing or locking up which requires me use C/A/Deleate to close the program. I used to be able to run 8 to 12 windows at a time and NEVER lock up or crash with the older version. Is this problem being looked into and or being corrected. I use Firefox with Google and my system is XP Pro 32 bit. THIS IS REALLY making me MAD. My email is [email protected] and would appreciate a response to this ASAP. I have tried a couple of items from your help section and nothing works.

'''''Hanging'''''

'''''Hanging at exit'''''
'''Kill Application'''
In Task Manager, does firefox.exe show in the '''Processes''' tab?

'''Causes and solutions for Firefox hanging at exit:'''
[[Firefox hangs]]
[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs#Hang_at_exit Firefox hangs at exit]
[[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
'''''Safe Mode'''''
You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes '''before''' starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
See:
'''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
'''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
'''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling '''one at a time''' until the problem reappears. '''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change''' via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

Left 4 Dead 2

I recently purchased a 13" MacBook Pro. It is the 2.53 Ghz with 4 GB of RAM. If I install Windows XP using Bootcamp, will I be able play Left 4 Dead 2 on it?

I don't have the same config as you do but I just loaded Win XP Pro and then Left 4 Dead this weekend. It really plays amazingly well on my machine. In fact I can't wait for L4D2 and Diablo 3 now!

I get a blue line that runs left and right only on the games section, what is that?

I got a blue line that runs left and right & viceversa when I m on the games, can somebody help me? I don't know if that is a virus....I never got one so I don't know...

You do not have a virus. It sounds like you have turned on Switch Control, which can be turned back off in Settings > General > Accessibility. You probably have the Accessibility Shortcut feature turned on, causing a triple-click on the home button to activate or deactivate that feature. You can disable that shortcut in the same Accessibility settings.

How can I label my rows on numbers so I can keep a running count? Dave

How can I label my rows on numbers so I can keep a running count?
i would like to number from 1 to 150 by highlighting and use a function command
Dave
               Name               Address          Email
Ex      1
          2
          3
          4
          150

Add a column to the left of column A (it will become column A).
Assuming you want to start with the first "name" in Row 2 (and NOT number the header row):
Two methods:
1.
In cell A2, enter =ROW()-1
Grab the Fill Handle (small circle, bottom right of the selected cell) and drag down to fil the formula into the rest of the cells in the column.
If the formula is placed in ALL non-header row cells in the column, it will automatically fill into any rows added to the table.
If rows are inserted or removed, numbers below the inserted/removed row will be automatically adjusted.
2.
In cell A2, enter a 1
In cell A3, enter a 2
Select both cells.
Grab the Fill Handle and drag down to the rest of the cells in the column.
These are fixed numbers. They will not be automatically filled into new rows added to the table, nor will they automatically update when rows are inserted into the table or removed from the table.
To add more numbers, select the last two cells currently containing numbers, drag the Fill Handle down.
Regards,
Barry

Left 4 Dead 2 with Bootcamp on iMac i7?

I have run L4D2 on my imac with bootcamp. It really ran great I played L4D 1 all of time it looked great ran great. Steam updated something and L4D2 stopped working for a lot of people, hopefully they'll patch it soon. But it plays great sounds awesome. I dig it.
