Well, even with xfire my computer is still having to encode the video to stream it and that's the part that's killing my performance. Here's my hard drive: Western Digital Caviar Blue WD5000AAKS 500GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive I've only got the 1 hard drive, but...

Win7 8GB DDR2 1066 Ram Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 Conroe 3.0GHz EVGA GeForce GTX 275 Superclocked Edition 1792MB EVGA NVIDIA nForce 780i SLI Motherboard I've only a single harddrive however: Western Digital Caviar Blue WD5000AAKS 500GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive...

Hello, I'm trying to share my screen/audio data with another PC over the network so that I can have the secondary computer do the recording (FRAPS). I'm doing this because running fraps on my Win7 machine seems to kill my FPS too much when attempting to record at a high quality. I'd like...

Hello, I'm looking for the best way to broadcast the video on my screen from my Win7 machine to my XP machine over the network. I'm also curious if this will eat up a lot of system resources, because the whole reason I'm doing it is to record gameplay video without hurting my FPS. I'm...

It's not really a gaming question though, I'm just trying to share my screen over the network. I'll look into logmein and VNC incase they're what I'm looking for, thank you!

Since no one seems to have the answer, can someone please point me towards the right section for me to post this question in? Is just setting up a remote desktop over the network my best course of action? Can I even do that between a win7 and winXP machine? If there's anyway to do it, I...

Here's my dilemma, I want to FRAPS or stream my gameplay footage at high resolutions, but when ever I do my FPS gets utterly destroyed. So I'm looking for a way to record my gameplay footage that won't drastically lower my FPS. That said, there has to be some low resource way to stream my...

Thank you for the detailed response. This is exactly why I visit these forums.

I already knew that, which is why that wasn't part of my question. I appreciate the info you've provided me and I'm thankful, but it would be nice if you stopped making so many assumptions about my knowledge level and answering questions I didn't ask. Again, I'm thankful for the quick...

I'm aware they're both image formats, hence why I accepted the file. The part that makes me curious is the fact that it's a .png saved to look like a .jpg if both carry the same risk factor. Thank you for the AV advice though, I'll give those (and the ones in the sticky) a whirl when I get...

Can any malicious software be piggy-backed on a .png file? Someone sent me a picture named 'photo.jpg.png' recently, which didn't cause me any immediate alarm because I only saw the .png at first and assumed it was safe. After I noticed the .jpg on front it made it seem like someone was...

Option 1: Canon PowerShot A1100 Option 2: Nikon CoolPix S560 It's a gift for the lady friend (hence the color), but I wanna make sure I get her a nice sleak lil camera that's both good for outdoor nature shots, and indoor party shots. She's leaning more towards the Nikon due to it's...

Correct. Each comp will always have an active 22" LCD display. The only thing I'm trying to swap is their 2nd display output, which will just be a cloned display. The issue I'm concerned with in swapping between USB + PS/2 is that I'll be using a w-less USB dongle for a mouse/keyboard...

Any KVM guru's out there? Or anyone who can point me in the right direction at the very least?
