Also right click swtor launcher and go to comparability and disable windows theme, run as administrator and disable the thing right next to windows theme.can't think of what it is atm And turn off shadows

Also people... I actually have been thinking about getting a new computer. Would upgrading the CPU, RAM, etc. actually give me what I want for now and a year or two down the road or should I just buy a new one? This one is already two years old. I could spend 2-3k on a new computer but I have NO IDEA what to get. Of course I want a gaming computer but I have no clue what the good computers are for that price range. Help anyone?

If I was to buy one for about 2k-2.5k could I get one that would run this game about as smooth as you can? Also.. I need some guidance. What are some good gaming computers in that price range? Dude you can build the best gaming PC (just tower) for like 1200 if you know what your doing. For an easy build google "the PC gamer rig revisited"

There isn't a windows theme or anything next to it under compatibility. Here's what there is: Compatibility mode (check on or off) I have it off. Settings: (you can check or uncheck these..they are all unchecked) run in 256 run in 640x 480 Disable visual themes Disable desktop composition Disable display scaling on high DPI settings Privilege level: Run as admin or not. Those are the only things under the Compatibility tab
