I remember playing Pong and Hangman way back in the day. Played the hell out of Gauntlet and Galaga in the arcades. Used to sink $20+ a night into Gauntlet playing with 3other people. Doom was what got me hooked online on the PC and then I remember upgrading to a Pentium75 just to play Quake in...

I jumped on this deal and it is a nice upgrade from my BFG 6800 GT OC that I've had for almost 2 years. Couldn't beat it.

Just stumbled onto this thread. I was wondering what other people thought about Monarch. I just cancelled an order for a CPU cooler last week and I called verify that it was being charged back to my credit card. The rep said that it would be about 30 days. I thought that it seemed like an awful...

Here is more of what I was going for. The last one was pretty rough..stayed up too late.

Here is one that I came up with for you: Updated version.

Great site... Brings back some memories. I remember upgrading from a Matrox M3d to a Stingray 128. I stayed with 3dfx all the way up to a Voodoo3, then went to Nvidia. Still have my Voodoo2 somewhere around here.

I have the same board and am currently running a 512 stick in slots 1 and 3 with no problems. Good luck trying to run more than that though.

Raising the Bar is intended as a art/coffee table book. It was not really intended to be something you received with the game. It is an awesome book with alot of great concept art not seen in any of the games. It covers the story of Valve before they even started the original Half-Life. I would...

Well, I'm now able to play the game and enjoy it. Here's what I did... Went into the cfg(C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\username\half-life 2\hl2\cfg) and changed the following: snd_mixahead from 0.1 to 0 and sv_force preload from 1 to 0 Setting any audio option to anything...

Same problem here. Went from the memory leak error to this, but I can actually play the game now. Happens mostly when someone starts talking and when music starts. Great game so far, just kind of lose the immersion factor with the stuttering.

This fix worked for me even though I received a different error. Only took about 20 minuts to download new file.

The only thing overclocked in my system is the processor and I've brought that down 100mhz.

Same error here. Still at work. I'll leave it up to you folks to come up with fix by the time I get home. ;) I've had it pre-loaded for a while now. Had a voucher from like a year ago. Locks up at loading screen with error after choosing new game.
