Is there a way to check what kind of video card, etc. you have in your computer because I only know what kind of graphics card it has, and I'm a noob when it comes to computers. :P

Do you got to "computer" and stuff?

Also, what's the difference between Windows 7 and Vista? I mean, Vista wasn't garbage like everyone said, and Windows 7 just seems bigger when it comes to things and stuff, lol.

Sorry for my silly question, I'm a console gamer, so I'm not aware of these things. :P

Vista/7: Click on the Start menu and type "dxdiag" in Start Search. Hit return and
off you go.

XP: Click on the Start menu and click on "run". type "dxdiag" in the box that pops up. Hit return and off you go.

Right click on the desktop and go to properties.
Click on settings.
The name of the card should be under the display section.

Or if that doesn't work do this.

Open run on the start menu.

Type in dxdiag

Click on the video section. It should tell you.

If you want more infos about your system go to system informations (start menu - all programs - accessories - system tools - system informations)

Vista had a bunch of core issues that were fixed in 7
