Hello fellow players!

Today i will demonstrate how easy it is to identify our PC Hardware using freeware CPU-Z auditing program. This program automatically audits and validates your system specifications making Visual Pinball and Future Pinball developers life easier to optimize the software.

TUTORIAL:

1- Visit the official website or download your program [HERE]



2 - Install the program following the installation wizard steps.

3 - Run the program from your start menu and follow the steps below:





4 - Wait for the report page to be displayed on your browser like mine shown below:



5 - Copy the BBCode infomation embeded in your validation page to your forum signature:

CODE

If everything was done correctly you shall now have a userbar displaying your system specs. just like mine!

I sense there is very little interest about sharing your PC specifications to software developers. Don't complaint about choppiness or glitches in the future.

I ran it on my rig. It's a good idea, now I don't have to keep posting my specs. Thanks.

Cool idea to post as signature. Can it show any thing about vid cards?

I was asking if Rawd could share his PC specs!

I have to put the program onto a USB stick, transfer it to my cab, run it, then copy the info back and post it on my desktop. I will get around to it eventually. It is a good idea.

If the software requires the internet, it will not work for me.

Rawd, your cab is not hooked up to the net? That must kinda suck.

No it's not. I don't really see a reason to have it hooked up, other than this instance.

To each his own I guess. I can't see being without the net on my rig. But I also play MAME on mine, so I am always getting new games off the web, as well as tables, UVPs, etc.

I usually use a USB stick to update once a week. I am thinking of putting in a wireless card just so I can drag and drop the files easier. I wanted it offline, so that I don't get hounded with windows updates. I also turned off the firewall and Virus settings for optimal performance.

Ok, all done and for what it's worth, my 4 year old rig runs almost all VP9 tables @ 1600x1200x16 bit without issue, only on a few with hi-res textures force me to lower the resolution or use the lower-res texture table alternative, always with HR on.

More details here...
