    30 Days with Vista @ [H]

    i think there's a rule against trolling... but i'll respond anyway since the admins here apparently don't mind your rudeness. you openly admit vista has at least 5% less performance (certainly understated purposely)... well factor in SLI which you don't even use, the auto-adapt which takes 2...

    30 Days with Vista @ [H]

    wow, TheRapture hasn't gotten perma-banned? read some of his posts, wow :O flamebaiting troll... I still use the vista for my home theatre pc, on media center full time... so not a complete loss. In my experience vista+sli 8800's+current drivers gives subpar performance compared to an XP...

    30 Days with Vista @ [H]

    i purchased vista ult when it came out to get the learning curve out of the way so that when it became a viable gaming platform with all of the dx10 capabilities i'd already be set. After about 3 months or dealing with horrid drivers for the sli 8800's i bought i ditched it and went back to xp...

    Computer Program Can't Lose at Checkers

    he developed a database of all possible checker moves (500 billion billion). chinook simply calculates all possible moves from that point and can ascertain the outcome, as each piece is moved it narrows the total number of moves. It just can't lose, though it can admittedly be tied. its just...

    Nvidia Monitor not allowing temp drop down pane

    yes i leave game resolution and desktop the same (2560x1600) all the time... the font DPI large simply allows ease of use, this is the only program i've seen with this defect.

    Nvidia Monitor not allowing temp drop down pane

    solved. retracing my steps, among the things i tweaked on the install was the DPI font settings(desktop right click -> personalize -> left pane) because of my enormously huge monitor using 2560x1600 resolution i set the DPI font from normal to large (helps me read in game text) apparently...
