Hey everybody!!!!! Just wanted to ask, I want to learn to play either Bass Guitar or Acoustic Guitar. So question ONE: Which one is easier? And question TWO: if it's my first one where's the most affordable place to get it from?

Background information:

I am an experienced piano player and music theorist who has done A-level music.

So umm... which one guys? And why is it easier? Oh and don't forget price range and any useful links :)

EDIT: By 'easier', I mean, which would be easier to start, and then faster to learn for a typical grade 3-4 standard.

I've bought Battlefield 2142 Deluxe Edition about a year ago now... registered the game on my Battlefield 2142 and EA account and whatever, you know.

But now I've just got a new pc and have installed it, it won't let me register the booster pack "Northern Strike" something about system error - Is it still attached to my profile? Or do I have to contact customer support (again)?

(P.S. The core game and the expansion pack in this case are the SAME serial code)

Just one thing, if you're already playing another MMO with swords and fantasy, then don't buy Guild Wars just yet. Just get Mass Effect for now. Also, Guild Wars also has a few expansions, so unless you're planning on spending more than $20, don't bother.

... updated to the newest drivers. or the screenshots you were looking at were mods... machiavell8x8

How the heck should we know? The info you give from your specs is useless. You diden't list any specific graphics card or processer.

The only thing I can "guess" is that it may be the CPU because its single-core.

Comrades! I seem to be unable to extend my Battle Lab's capability. I can run Red Alert 3 on high graphics, but not Ultra High graphics. (This also applies to CnC3 Tiberium Wars, as they use the same engine)

It seems I have a processor of 3.0GHz single core, with 1.5GB RAM, and 256VRAM that has 2.0 shaders/pixels etc... which all runs on a XP system.

I can select 'Ultra High' graphics on the game, but the gameplay slows down, and I don't get anything spectacular as seen on some videos and screenshots. The emphasised bloom effect, extra particles, and water smooth edges are non-existent and nothing has changed from 'High' graphics.
This also happens in TW, where the road seems plain and smooth, and not realistic (if you've played World In Conflict on high graphics, you'll know what I mean).

I was wondering, what could be the cause of this? Is it.. my processor? My RAM? Or my Video card?
