yes u can but be prepared to have great lag time and frozen frames. reason being external increase access time and wht is the transfer rate of the hdd via usb, and i assumed connected by usb right? this will greatly reduce the game performance.....and while you are at it do u have the required video resolution for the game no built in vga on mobo will work either.

I dont even know where to start. A few weeks ago a variety of problems started after someone started fooling around with my computer. I think they were trying to make a static ip or something. I dont know if it worked.

I began having problems with my internet connection. I reset my modem and router but still had problems. I still am unable to access the Belkin page for my settings. 192.168.2.1 or 2.2 doesnt work. So if you can help wih that, I'd appreciate it.

Yesterday morning when I booted up a balloon popped up saying another network was available. I dont remember what it was, but it seemed legitimate, like Gateway Network or Microsoft Network or something. I'd never seen anything like it before. Anyway, I right clicked, but didnt select the option. I was able to work online for awhile then suddenly I lost all network connections. AOL, local, everything. I couldnt get back online for anything. Today, upon reboot I was able to get online for maybe 5 minutes. I still wasnt able to connect to Belkin, but was temporarily able to access my neighbors linksys. I can do that everytime I reboot, but I can never access my Belkin. The computer wired to the router still works.

Then in the middle of all this, I got one of those blue screens telling me I may need to turn of caching or shadowing in the BIOS. Of ocurse no one in the word …

the big myth on bottled water guy, look into this, if there are so many company bottling water from the "source" poland spring, maine, evian, fuji, do u really beleive companies are paying that great import tarrif to import water into the usa or any countrry for that matter. bottled water is tap water that goes throught a process of reverse osmosis. with all the bottled water dont you thing the "sources" would be dried up by now. here is some thing u can try. get a brita filter or any water filter for that matter. boil tap water, let cool to room temp or put in you refrigerator to cool then filter it. bam u got bottle water quality. its all a hype and a money making thing.

@ Hamu
i agree with you, especially when u are not even given the chance to prove yourself. and take for eg u have all the knowledge and degree to boost, but a friend or relative of the ceo will get the job over you some one who cant even comprehend the field or work, it should be mandatory that school find u a job before u graduate and stop focusing on sucking u pocket dry on tuitions. books and senseless graduations dress up which u have to pay for as if the thousands of dollors u pay was not enough u have to pay to graduate, they are the same ones who tell u will need a student loan to offset expenses. u earn the degree from blood and sweat from sleepless night, stress and for u to colle`ct what u paid for and earned u have to pay again. still no job at the end of the line.
