    DX10/Nvidia Drivers: XP?

    That's what I thought, though in some reviews of the GTX, I've seen people say "make sure you know how to install DX10 on XP"... though from what I've seen/heard here, you don't need it (and can't install it) to run a DX10 card on XP. So I'll get the same performance, just w/o the benefits of...

    DX10/Nvidia Drivers: XP?

    I'm making the move to the 8800GTX soon, but am unclear as to the DX10 situation with XP. Is DX10 needed for the card to run even if on a DX9 system? I've seen [H] do GPU reviews with DX10 cards using DX9... so I'm assuming it would work fine? If you do install DX10 on XP for the card, how...

    Which provides better CPU cooling?

    Thanks, but that's old news. Whether or not Thermalright was actually made any revisions to prevent the 775 problems is still up for debate. Some people are still having problems, while others are not. I need feedback from people who are using it, or know someone using it, to address the...

    Which provides better CPU cooling?

    I'm currently running a Zalman 9500 on my C2D and my temps are great, and I've been using this Zalman for quite some time. However, the fan/bearings are starting to go I think, so I recently bought the Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme to replace the Zalman soon. After my experience with the...

    Ventrilo Questions (Need Info/Help)

    I have a few technical questions about Vent from the perspective of running it that I cannot seem to find answered anywhere else, so I'd appreciate any info/help anyone can give me. I've never actually run it, though I've used it. 1) It can be run right off of my PC & IP addy with people...

    E6600 Temps on D975XBX2: Accurate?

    I recently installed the newer revision of Intel's D975XBX2 in order to install a C2D E6600 CPU and, if the temps I'm getting are correct, I'm shocked. Do the newer revisions of Intel's D975XBX (the D975XBX2) still read approx. 10C higher as the older version did? I'm getting two different...

    Odd Message Pre-Load Screen (Intel D975XBX2)

    I recently installed the newer revision of Intel's D975XBX2 in order to install a C2D CPU, and everything went fine, as usual with any of the many builds I've done, but I'm getting an odd message on boot: "No hard disk detected" - though it actually boots fine. It's when it's doing the sys...

    Best Current CD/DVD Burning Software?

    Thanks for the suggestions. I've been attempting to use v7, but: ...this is indeed the problem, so I might go back to v6, which could sometimes have serious bugs for some people... depending, but at least certain versions of it worked well-enough. I think Nero is "hit-or-miss" with a...

    Best Current CD/DVD Burning Software?

    Thanks, but those are all predominantly for multi-media usage. I'm just looking for a prog that I can use to simply burn data onto DVD, and don't need all the other multi-media capabilities.

    Best Current CD/DVD Burning Software?

    I'm looking for a new program (or more than one if necessary) for burning/ripping CDs and burning DVDs (as in backing-up system folders, not multi-media) because Nero and it's endless problems have finally gotten on my last nerve. Even if I need two different programs, once for music/CDs and...
