  1. I wouldn't of got the Powercolor X850XT 256mb, since a 7800GT and even the GTX isn't much more expensive. Other than that, its a pretty good system, though i would have got an AMD 64 since its cheaper than Intel Chips, runs cooler and is better for games.

  2. My computer has problems on microsoft.com, having a background, and running for more than 2 hours. What`s wrong with it

     

    I don't think anybody will be able to figure out whats wrong unless you give us a better desciption of the problem (ie. What browser are you using?). As Agozer said, try a full spyware and virus scan.

  3. Case: Antec Super Lanboy

    PSU : Antec TruePower ver 2.0 550W

    CPU: Athlon 64 3200 venice (939)

    Cooler: Gigabyte NeoCooler 8 CPU Fan

    Mobo: Abit AV8 3rd Eye -> Soon to be replaced by Asus A8N nforce 4 SLI

    Video Card: Gigabyte 6600gt -> Soon to be replaced by XFX 7800gt

    Memory: 1 gig (2x512) Gell Dual Channel Value Ram

    Harddrive: 2x 80gig Seagate SATA Hard (Raid 0)

    Optical: Asus DVD-RW Dual Layer x16

    Liteon DVD Rom 16x

  4. Well I decided to use Nvidia Riva TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro, the one that I'm using right now.  When I try to play Call of Duty, it brings up an error message saying that my video card is missing a function, something like that.  I know my computer meets the requirements for the game and have also played the demo. 

     

    Don't know the exact requirements for Call of Duty, though it may need a card with pixel shaders or hardware transform and lighting. I dunno if the tnt2 has any of those.

     

    Also, just because you can play the demo fine doesn't neccessarily eman you can play the full game properly. My 6600gt played the FEAR demo pretty well, but is seriously struggling when i play the full game on the same settings.

  5. Its definately not his powersupply, since that card doesnt use that much current. If it was the PSU, the entire system would be unstable all the time, not only during games.

     

    The latest drivers won't be too much help for the card either, since they have stopped supporting it since the old detonator driver days.

     

    Did you install the drivers over the top of the old ones? If you did, that can sometimes stuff it up so try uninstalling your drivers and then run driver cleaner to remove all registry instances of the old drivers. Then reinstall the new ones.

     

    And if that fails, weirdy is right, get another card. Even an ATI 9550 would give you a massive increase in fps, and they retail at around 80 dollars australian, around 50 bucks US.

  6. I get around 6k a second for most downloads. I can also play Half-life 2 on local servers with around 190 ping which is pretty good for dial up.

    Tips: When ever possible, find a local mirror for your downloads. Also if your connecting at anything less then 40kbps, complain to your phone company and tell them to fix it.

  7. Is there an english version of this movie? All ive been able to find is the version with subtitles. Subtitles tend to ruin jokes so id prefer an english one.

     

    If not, then i guess its subtitles for me!

     

    Trust me, the subtitled version is better, at least it was with Shaolin Soccer. The english version of that movie sucked big time.

  8. There is nothing on Nintendo that i really want to play.

    I hate Mario to death, i dun even know who Zelda is, and I have enough cutey, smiling faces.

     

     

    i feel sorry for you. so so so SO misguided.

    was your first mario game, mario sunshine by any chance?

    That'd kill a man for not knowing the true historical awesomeness of Mario.

     

    I pity those who hate/dislike/refuse to play Nintedo games because they're to childish.
