  1. Well, i looked more into it and i think this technique should make it work. I tried making another user account and then going to the admin account a right clicking but i couldnt find "run as", i could only find "run as admin". So after researching some more i found that i could just open the program in the other user using the command prompts. But i cant seem to make it work. I tried going into the command promp and it starts out with c:\Users\Ahmad89> i tried searching but i just dont get these command prompts. i got to c:\Users\Ahmad89>runas.exe/netonly/user: but i dont get what im supposed to put next. Also it asks for the domain name and i dont know what that would be.

     

    Help :P

  2. While I can understand that some people might run multiple instances of the same application, to this day I fail to understand why someone would want to do it with PC games.

    I posted this link: PC Split Screen , earlier and i have been trying to work it out. This would would allow me to play games that have LAN capability on the same screen. That is opening two instances of the same game and then clicking LAN to play against my brother, since we only have on descent computer in the house.

     

    This is however, my reason for wanting to do this.

  3. Im trying to find a program that would allow me to run a game twice. Some games allow me to run them twice, for example quake. But when i try to run PURE for example, it wont let me. All i needed to do for quake is put it in window mode and put it on my second screen and then click the quake icon again and it worked. However when i do it with PURE, it doesnt give me another screen. So i was thinking if thier was a program that would allow me to run two applications of the same game.

     

    THANKS

  6. Time for an upgrade.

     

    I have 2 GB Ram and i want 2 more. My computers brand is:

     

    1024 MB DDR2-SDRAM (PC2-4200 / PC2-4300 / 533 MHz) ["SMBUS:0:A0SMBUS:0:A0"]*

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    *Memory Size*1.00 GB

    *Memory Type*DDR2-SDRAM (PC2-4200 / PC2-4300 / 533 MHz)

    *Memory Manufacturer*Samsung

    *Memory Manufacture Date*Week 9, Year 2007

    *Memory Part Number*M3 78T2953EZ3-CD5

    *Memory Serial Number*030C64EB

    *Memory Revision Code*4533

     

    I have Two of the above. Now the new RAM, can it be higher than the PC2 4200 like for example :

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820134586

    or

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820134046

     

    If thier is a different brand or type that you guys recommend than go ahead, its just that i heard of kingstone before. im willing to spend 30$ total on the RAM.

     

    And also for the HDMI (YES, i got a 32" toshiba LCD!), my computer only has DVI, so should i buy a DVI to HDMI Cord or a HDMI to HDMI and a HDMI to DVI adapter to connect to the LCD. It doesnt have DVI input. I currently connect it through my VGA cord and VGA to DVI converter. Or should i even bother with the HDMI. Here are some that i saw:

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16812339007

    or

    HDMI to HDMI

    adapter

     

    Again other considerations are welcome.

     

    From what i see on newegg, the cords come as cheap as 10$ so im not really aiming for a top of the line cord, just one that can have a big jump from the vga. Not that it is bad, believe me its a jump from my old tv with s-video connection. 30$ a max.

    If i need an adapter i think 10$ is enough.

  7. I think I'll just go with the X-540, might choose the X-530 since the remote doesnt really bother me much. And I'll keep my sound card since it can do 5.1.

     

    I have another question. When i first bought my computer, it came with a remote for the media center. But i cant use it for say vlc media player, is their a way to fix that to make it work with it. If i have to google it i will, just thought one of you guys might know.

  8. How about the sound card. Do i need to buy a new one. How do i know??

     

    The only thing i didnt like about the 540 is the return policy. I looked at tigerdirect.com and they even have it for a cheaper price. Circuit city also has it so i might get it from their since its close to my house and return policies thier are great. I got a 500GB Hard drive from thier a month ago. Im loving it. It was only 120$.

  9. Long time no see, i have a break from exams so i thought id post :D

     

    well, ive been thinking of getting my self some surround sound speakers both for my room and and living room. Ive come down to three:

     

    COBY CSP94 150 Watts 5.1 HOME THEATER SPEAKER SYSTEM

     

    Logitech X-530 70 watts RMS 5.1 Black Speaker System

     

    Logitech X-540 70 watts 5.1 Speaker

     

    If anybody recommends anything else, i would appreciate it. Dont give me something thats for 100$ or up. I would prefer if it was under 70$ (i didnt graduate yet).

     

    Another thing is that these are 5.1 SS. Does that mean my sound card has to be 5.1 compliant. I tried looking in the "Hardware Diagnostic Tools" but all i could find is the driver information and the fact that it is "realtek high definition audio". In my settings for the audio i have the option to change betweeen 2.1, 4.1, 5.1, and 7.1. Im lost. How do i know if it is a 5.1 compliant card or not.

     

    Ohh, and im glad i chose the 8600GTS b/c with those new 9 series cards, im glad i didnt buy that 8800 :(
