Now as some of you may know i made a thread a few weeks back about my laptop having a few problems and since then because of all the people who helped that amount of times my laptop freeze's has gone down a lot haha :) but I just wanted to say thanks for the help.
I have another problem I need to install a cd onto my computer so I can revise the theory tests and hazard perception videos there is no other way this can only be revised on a laptop/computer and I only have a laptop at my house at the moment.
On the back it says this..
system requirements:
Operating system : Windows Me / 2000 / XP
CPU Type and speed : Pentium III 600 or equivalent
Hard Drive space : 60MB
Memory : 64MB
DVD-ROM Speed : 2x or faster
Printer : Required for printing vouchers
Graphics : Any 100% directX 9.0c 3D compatible graphics card (800x600x 16 bit colour)
Audio : Any 100% DirectX 9.0v compatible sound card
Internet Access : Required for downloading updates access money off vouchers/insurance offer.
Now the problem is then when I put the cd in i can hear my laptop going louder and working extremely hard but then the laptop does not even detect the CD at all is this because I dont meet the system requirements or what I know i have windows XP, I dont know how to find out my CPU speed or type? I've definately got more than 60mb on my hard drive but I thought that and memory were the same thing? I dont know how to find out the speed of my dvd-rom, I have a printer and dont know about graphics but I have 32 bit colour im pretty sure, obviously have audio with the laptop and internet access so could anyone whos good with stuff like this offer me any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!
