    Trouble with Acer A231H, help?

    I am pretty stumped! What I end up doing is unplugging both the power and DVI cable from the monitor and plugging them back in until, eventually, the Acer logo appears on the monitor and it works. But, I believe it's just getting old. I think I purchased it sometime in 2011. I'm going to try...

    So... Rome: Total War, looking for some help.

    Thanks for the link Tark, buuuut... I believe that Microsoft is wrong~ Blade - Well! I thought that I looked through the whole menu with the compatibilities, but I did overlook the desktop composition, somehow. Either way, I checked that and started Rome and it played pretty flawlessly...

    So... Rome: Total War, looking for some help.

    Thanks for the response! Either way, I downloaded each of the patches and installed them one after the other, starting with version 1.2... Then 1.3, and finally 1.5. After each installing I attempted to start the game, but the same thing I mentioned in the previous post continued to...

    What does a System Management Controller do?

    All right, thanks for that website Joe, that will help me out with a few other things. :) I'm going to stick with the drivers from the NVIDIA site. Though, is there any specific process that requires uninstalling what drivers are already there? Or will new chipset drivers simply overwrite...

    What does a System Management Controller do?

    Hmm... I believe I am going to need another opinion . There's a chipset driver for my motherboard's nForce 750a on the NVIDIA site... However, on the Asus site they too have a chipset driver download called 'NVIDIA nForce MCP72/78 Chipset Package Driver V18.12'. I have the later driver...

    What does a System Management Controller do?

    I was looking through my device list earlier and I noticed that one of my items there, the 'NVIDIA nForce System Management Controller', had an exclamation. I went into it's properties and apparently I don't have a driver for it. What does this do and where can I find the driver for it? I...

    riot8ap: Yes, I have SP1 as updated as can be, and I'm not overclocked. Thanks for looking up that thread though! Made this problem of mine a tad bit more ominous than I thought it could be. x) zaxour: I'm embarrassed to say that I didn't have the latest nVidia drivers, but I have...
