I think that COD: WaW has the best campaign of all the COD games. It was great. I really enjoyed the game. It was even epic, in some parts. The action was unrelenting. Even sniper missions were action packed, because you had to keep pushing forward. The multiplayer is fun. The maps are quite big. And Co-OP is great to have as well.
In BIOS, you need to make sure that it is set to boot from the pci-express slot, not onboard. Also, what is your power supply make/model? Also list your wattage and +12v amps. If you are unsure how to check this, take off the side panel and look at the sticker on the side of your power supply. If you can't even get into BIOS, then you might need to reset cmos. Which is real simple, just remove the battery on your motherboard and replace it. This will reset your bios to its original settings. But the most important thing is to post your power supply info.
Well, it depends. Did you build this PC yourself? Or is it a Dell or HP that you upgraded the psu and video card for? I went on Newegg and put together a similar computer as if i were buying your exact parts. Now, I figure that these parts are probably higher quality than yours. And they are all brand new. Also, a couple of them are just plain better.(for instance, they didn't have an amd 4000, only 4400. And 4GB Ram instead of 3.) And it came out to $550. Now, since your computer is used, and the imaginary computer is new and a little better, I would cut at least $150 off that. It really depends on who you are selling it to. And if you are going to list it on Ebay or not. If someone has the technical knowhow to build one on their own, then they might be better off doing that. But if someone doesn't, selling it for $350-$400 might be a fair price. Especially considering the fact that you won't be able to find a pre-built machine for that amount with those components.
But you live in Australia right? Newegg doesn't ship there(i don't think). You can probably find the same thing over there though.
The reason I suggest this one is because it is a great power supply. Highest quality one out there. It doesn't get better than Corsair. Plus, if you plan to upgrade later, you'll have enough power to do so. The only concern I have is your case. A lot of pc makers make cases that only fit thier own propreitary psu size. However, I don't know if this is the case with your computer. Just a word of caution. Post back if you have any more questions.
I'm not sure I would risk it. They list 550w minimum for a reason. And that's the minimum, not the recommended. It's definatley going to be running at its peak most of the time. Which would degrade your power supplies performance. I would go with a quality Corsair 750w. I think that it's always better to play it safe when it comes to power supplies. A failing power supply could potentially damage your system. The older 8800GT/9800GT cards might be able to run well with that. But not these new power hungry cards.
I use Nvidia. Never owned an ATI card. But I will be upgrading soon and it will be a tough decision: GTX 260 VS. HD 4870. I don't know, probably will go with Nvidia again. Just because I haven't had problems with my current card.
