    Windows 8: No sound when emptying Recycle Bin.

    Just before I saw this thread I emptied my Recycle Bin. I am using the Sailing theme from MS and the empty sound is dropping something into the sea. Made me smile.

    Windows 8 - Bad for both Noobs and Power Users - The Proof

    Not going to read through five pages of arguing but if you are not aware it is possible to boot directly to the desktop. The two things I do to avoid Metro, I do use it occasionaly but I have Win key for that. 1, disable the setting in PC settings that forces you to log-in after waking from...

    Dell U3011 coming soon.

    Just got mine. No stuck pixels, no lightbleed what-so-ever. Even with a black background. Got a good one, lucky since I didn't get one of the good deals on it. MicroCenter had one so I bit.

    dedicated physics worth it?

    I have a GTX 580 and it seems to handle the PhysX very well by itself on Batman. 60 fps with vsync at all times so far at 1920 by 1200. Just got around to re-downloading some games after all the new mb revision things I had to go through, reinstall mainly. Haven't had a chance to really test...

    The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings ann.

    GOG version. Patch 1.1 Ubersampling with motion blur off might be playable now. 1920 by 1200. FPS went from 11 to 20 up to 21 to 25. Just running around Flotsam, no action, but it is a little smoother now. Doubt if I will try it but it looks possible. Ultra with uber off went from 45 to 60 up...

    PCMark 7 results?

    About the same as I got. I'm at 4.3 and got 5526. What sucks is I just got a 580 GTX yesterday and I got 5400 with it. Ran 3D mark 11 and it told me I could do better. Latest drivers. Ran Heaven 2.5 and matched what Legit Reviews got on a 580. ??? Edit: Had an old 9800GT I installed for Physx...

    B3 P8P67PRO will not stay asleep or hibernate

    Haven't had any sleep issues since I reinstalled OS. Everything is running fine now. Cpu is even running about 4 degrees cooler than it was before. Had a nice even coating of TIM when I took the cpu out of the old board. Can there be that much difference between Artic Silver and Noctua's own...

    B3 P8P67PRO will not stay asleep or hibernate

    Reinstalled Widows 7 and that seems to have fixed the problem. Didn't want to go through hours of that for nothing, but it seems to have worked. So far everything seems to be working fine, fiddled with some overclocking but haven't really stressed anything yet.

    B3 P8P67PRO will not stay asleep or hibernate

    Did that. I tried all of the sleep fixes that have been posted here, even if the sleep problem they fixed was different. haven't seen my specific problem anywhere. Trying to avoid an OS reinstall, I just changed the motherboard and hoped. Didn't have any problems with the B2 board after the...

    B3 P8P67PRO will not stay asleep or hibernate

    Just installed my replacement board yesterday. No major problems except one. If I put the machine to sleep or hibernate it starts back up after a couple of minutes and stays running. Found it running once with a frozen black screen and had to manually shut down and restart. Tried all the various...

    Asus P8P67 and AI Suite II

    I had trouble with Windows not keeping my sleep settings. Uninstalled all of AI Suite, had to manually delete some folders to get rid of some leftover processes, and no more sleep problems. You can set everything through UEFI anyway.

    Asus P8P67 Pro issue - Getting very close to returning it

    Since I'm having no problems at all now I'm more worried about exchanging boards agetting one that has problems. I fixed the last of my sleep problems by switching off EPU and uninstalling it. Then I uninstalled all of AI Suite, All together I went from 72 processes to 52.
