| charl | crowthorne in midrand | 14:04 |

| Kilos | lol wine has crashed me a coupla times | 14:06 |
| theblaze | Nit sure hey | 14:06 |
| charl | yeah no i don't want to touch it | 14:06 |
| charl | i used wine a few times with varying results | 14:07 |
| charl | besides, i prefer to drink beer :) | 14:07 |
| Mezenir | hi all | 14:07 |
| charl | especially if it's belgian beer | 14:07 |
| theblaze | Kilos, Charl: that sucks. Was hoping I could use Linux for gaming | 14:07 |
| theblaze | Only play open source then I guess | 14:07 |
| Mezenir | valve confirmed they are working on a steam client for linux | 14:08 |
| Kilos | theblaze, lots of guys do but im still on 10.10 | 14:08 |
| Mezenir | so it is coming | 14:08 |
| Kilos | so old wine and all | 14:08 |
| charl | theblaze: you can try steam if you want https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_under_Linux | 14:08 |
| theblaze | Yeah I know about steam coming. Ea too I think | 14:08 |
| theblaze | Still don't have a PC :/ | 14:08 |
| Kilos | eish | 14:09 |
| theblaze | Yeah. Motherboard replacement costs r3500 | 14:09 |
| charl | that's quite expensive just for a motherboard | 14:09 |
| charl | 350 euro? you could buy a whole new pc for that | 14:09 |
| theblaze | 3500 Rand and I know | 14:10 |
| Kilos | wow | 14:10 |
| theblaze | Going to get CPU and ram from laptop then build a pc | 14:10 |
| charl | brb | 14:11 |
| theblaze | Pity I can't save the graphics card ... but it was nvida anyway | 14:13 |
| Kilos | lol | 14:13 |
| theblaze | Does anyone know if intergrated graphics are part of CPU or motherboard? | 14:14 |
| smile | theblaze: you don't need nvidia ;) | 14:14 |
| smile | theblaze: it's integrated on the motherboard, I think :) | 14:14 |
| theblaze | I know :) shit | 14:15 |
| theblaze | Gina need a goodish motherboard then | 14:15 |
| smile | theblaze: I have AMD :) (ATI) | 14:16 |
| theblaze | Cool. Intergrated ? | 14:16 |
| smile | no. A card :) | 14:17 |
| smile | & Intel integrated graphics, I think | 14:17 |
| theblaze | OK. I don't think Intel intergrated graphics is too bad is it? | 14:19 |
| theblaze | At the moment I can probobaly spend r500 | 14:20 |
| smile | theblaze: no, it works fine. :) | 14:21 |
| smile | I only need the video card for my bad monitor, which needs the RAM inside the card | 14:22 |
| theblaze | Good. And the prices? Can I get one under r500 | 14:22 |
| theblaze | Lol | 14:22 |
| theblaze | I want to be able to play waste land 2 | 14:22 |
| Kilos | theblaze, what does your mb do exactly | 14:29 |

| Kilos | here and there | 14:30 |
| Kilos | what happens when you try boot | 14:30 |
| theblaze | It switches on but doesn't display anything. It starts fan etc but not the screen. Then it switches off after about 5 secobds | 14:31 |
| theblaze | Seconds *: | 14:31 |
| Kilos | and if you go into bios and leave it there does it also switch off? | 14:32 |
| Kilos | or only after bios has loaded | 14:33 |
