1stpar and Eagletr. I really appreciate the offers   However, my pc is too dar gone to get fixed. I’m also not really the type to be beholder on anyone. I will figure something out and be back ASAP. A new pc isn’t in the cards but I’m looking into a gaming laptop. I’m hoping it might play AH.
  Again, I appreciate everyone who posted. I will miss you all!!! At least for a little while!

Shipper,

     I hate to see you go ship.  The work you have done over the years in the game has been much appreciated.   I'll say see you later instead of goodbye, because we all want to see you back as soon as you work through things.

     Take care and best wishes until your return,             One-eye   :aok

picked up an excellent mid range laptop for 600 recently brand new. 8gb ram, i3 3.0 ghz processor, UHD Intel graphics, 250gb SSD. Very average hardware nowadays and it runs the game like a dream @ 60 fps with graphics turned up.
.it's only the high end games you need a gaming pc/laptop for. Personally I wouldn't touch any of those with a 10 ft stick so long as AH3 is still alive and well.

BROTHER!!! We were 100% HELL YES! Done stuff like this DOZENS of times!!!! This situation is not any different! We all need Folk to shoot at :devil and its just an investment into our AH experience! What do you need, to make this an reality?

Sounds like we are losing someone who wants to play but can't due to a busted pc

Shppr01 wants to play and with his involvement with the game I think the AH family should try to help.

How can we get him a new computer?

Any ideas anyone? Money or computer parts?

Shppr01 are you in the states?

What is broken and what is needed to get you back in the game?

eagler, im trying to find something for him to use too.

shipper is the video card any good in that machine? can you handle taking it out?

I'm in!

This would be a privilege shppr. You would be beholden to no one, you would receive a blessing in staying active in the game you love, we get the blessing of helping a dear friend. Thats called a win/win. :aok

Yes it’s still in but it may be toast. I did a dumb thing and tried to turn it on. I saw less sparks on the Fourth of July. But I have no way to tell if it’s good or not.

Although I haven’t agreed to any of this, you all must know I have cataract surgery on my eyes coming soon.  So even if this happens( and I’m not saying it will) it’s still going to be a few months til I can even get back in.

You can look at it this way, when you have recovered from your surgery, you'll be ready and rarin to go.  :aok

Easy peasy.  I had the same operation on both eyes (with the *laser*!).  You're in pain for half a day, foggy for half a day, and then it's a whole new world. 

You'll also see what a lousy monitor you've been using.

Expecting you back soon.
