Which one? I can almost guarantee Guitar Hero will run just fine on your PC. So what if you have to turn the settings down? Certainly graphics wont matter with GUITAR Hero now will it? lol

The third. Lol, that can be agreed. I'm not really worried about the graphics, just being able to play the game is all I'm looking for. You think it'll work with an HP Pavillion?

Their min specs is total bullshit, especially when Crysis requires less. Try downloading a demo or something to make sure it works.

The model number is a6200n. The req for the game? I would think so, those are high req. I don't think there are any demos available, but I'll look in to it. I've already tried and failed once with the game... Thanks again for the advice.

The minimum specs for GH3 for reasons unknown to me are very high (if it runs on a PS2 it can't be that demanding - and it runs fine too, that's the version I have). A 7600 is listed as the minimum card. I'm willing to bet you could get the job done on a 8400GS, but a 6150? I'm very very doubtful.

So you're betting it's not going to work?
I'll probably just wait for a demo to come out and try that before spending money...

I tried the game on my PC, and it doesn't run well. I can't run it at max, I have to turn the res down a lot. If that's the case, you can forget about running it on your PC. it's a crap version of the game too, get the console one, it's far better coded.

I mean there's no harm in trying, but if I were you, I'd get the PS2 version off ebay for cheap if you want to play Guitar Hero - that way you can get the older games too for some more tracks.

I'd love to do that, but I haven't got a ps2, so that's out of the option. Otherwise I would, I have played all of the games on ps many times before and enjoyed it a lot.

Lol can I be cheeky then and say get the PS2 off ebay too? They can't be expensive these days... especially if you get the old version not the slim.

Haha, I'd love too. But there's problems there too, which wouldn't make sense even if I explained.

They probably would but fair enough.
All is not entirely lost though about playing Guitar Hero on the PC, there's an open-source program out there called Frets on Fire which is a cut-down version of the same thing. It only initially comes with 3 sample tracks but you can download thousands more over the internet. of course, it won't come with guitar controllers, but it's designed to work using your keyboard. Additionally if you just buy a controller on its own with a USB cable, you can plug that in, and FoF should work with it.

Yea, I was considering that. It'll probably be on my computer by the end of the day.

these are the specs on my computer. i know pretty much the basics of computers, but i was wondering if i could get any input on ways i could improve this one
after reading a few pages of this thread i realize the graphics card needs a tune up. anything else i could change to enhance this thing at a relatively lower end budget?

You can get a new PSU and a new video card. Apart from that there isn't much.

You will not remove your integrated card, it's built right in. All you need to do is put in the video card.
Before you do that though, your PSU will need an upgrade.
