So I recently dropped Windows 8.1 on my gaming comp for Mint 16. After some trial and error I found a way to get the newest beta drivers up and running correctly for my setup and I thought I'd share. While I could go and fix the drivers to actually work, I followed these steps in order to just...

EDIT: Gone to ihmcguinness.

I've been posting around on different forums looking for the answer and getting no dice yet. Hoping someone has been able to do it and can help me out. Added the icons manually, along with the docktileplugin folder. All I get is a blank icon with the month and day still. Even tried with CandyBar...

Anyone try these out on their Macs yet? I probably wouldn't bother if I wasn't a tech. Kind of have to learn it for the sake of others. Boot Camp drivers are shoddy. Some work, some don't. Gonna guess we won't see an update to Boot Camp for some time...

Unsure where to post this so I'll post it here. Installed Windows Server 2012 Standard on my iMac today through Boot Camp so I can mess with Metro for the time being and find out if things actually work. My goal is to use it as a workstation OS and not mess with any of the server-side stuff...

I'm looking at upgrading the mobo for this PC and have settled on MSI 890GXM-G65. Are there any PSUs that fit that would supply plenty of watts for say, the X4 965 and an HD 57xx? Currently it's stock with an Athlon II X2 240 and I added a 1GB HD 5450 to it. Anyone put something nicer in there...

Anyone enjoying any of these? Real Soccer 2009 seems decent, for a DS soccer game anyway. The Art Style Series seems to be the real winners though. I have both Aquia and got PiCTOBiTS today. Both are interesting and pretty challenging. I saw that there are a ton of these Art Style games out...

WTF? http://shoguntotalwar.yuku.com/topic/44394/t/Empire-release-info-on-Steam.html Thanks Valve... :rolleyes:

Figured I'd start a thread for these since we don't have one and I'm hoping some other subscribers pop in with theirs. Information we need from you is a name and email address. I currently have 2 invites left and I will update this post as they go. :) EDIT: Hope all those that got...

Just bought one of these today along with a 2GB stick of RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16856101079 Its going to be used with a 200GB Seagate 7200rpm laptop drive that I pulled out of my Gateway. Basically going to be used as a NAS. Anyone buy one and have some...

Deal is dead and prolly never was alive. :(

I was thinking about this earlier today and also just now while setting up ALL of my email accounts on my treo. I could never go back. After having all the bells and whistles for awhile now, I doubt I could live without a smartphone. In fact if I could find a portable keyboard for it, I'd...

Never have I seen a minor update crash constantly on sites I go to everyday. Hotmail, Facebook, THIS FORUM all make it crash on a consistant but random basis. I could be going from Hotmail to Newegg and it will crash, or Facebook to here and it will crash. Is this happening for anyone else...

...Is frickin awesome. Highly recommend you guys pick it up off Steam. Frustration level can get high...especially on the last level of Ch. 1. One wrong move and the whole thing goes kaput. And thats what the time bugs are for. :)

I've been weighing my options lately and this is something I'd really like to get into. Guess a little background would help... - I'm 22 (23 in Sept) - Transferred to a 4 yr university this year and will be most likely going for a general CS degree. Have 2-3 years left total (as long as...

so i'm 22. not exactly the target age range for the Backyard games but i don't care. its fun stuff and really easy to pick up and play. anyone else play this or any of the other ones for other consoles? i'm still sorta disappointed at the lack of newer sports games but i've been out of the...

looking to play with some people from the forums if anyone still plays. posted my code in my other thread but this will be more organized Code: 137592201224 see you in game hopefully :)

been playing it basically non stop for the past few days. already finished all 4 classes with gold cups...(for some reason the 150 Mirror Banana Cup was the hardest shit ever and took me so many tries to get a gold). now i suppose i should finish with the missions. dunno what to pick up...

comments that its legit....thinkin about downloading it........................hmmmmmmmm lol and if you're wondering, yes its english-only. EDIT: Download at your own risk since its an unofficial source. link removed -odoe

kinda surprised it hasn't been leaked by now if it has been released. been searching around for awhile and still can't find anything on it. guess we'll have to wait some more.... UPDATE: just as i post that i see it has gone RTM http://blogs.zdnet.com/microsoft/?p=1352 YAY

since I have an EeePC (and will have one for awhile), i've gone back to playing the classics. mainly because they'll run better ;) anyway, i'm about to finish Doom and start on Doom 2. was thinking about playing Quake as well...hell ALL the id shooters are a good place to start. then we...

didn't see this posted anywhere. its finally out of beta apparently. did i mention its free? :) http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/download_firewall.html?currency=USD&region=North%20America&country=US

I decided to last night after I stuck my VF700 on my 8800GT. hooked up my two case fans to the 5v connectors and hooked the vid card fan up to the 12v. cools nicely actually. i then toned down the C2D overclock to 2.33 and put the fan down to 50%. i'm in silence heaven and can still play...

Prolly gonna sell the rig in my sig eventually, but I figured I'd ask around for some opinions. I've found some decent old ultraportables for the same price of the EeePC on ebay. Problem is of course, no warranty of any kind with them, and they're used as well. With an Eee PC i'd be able to...

on openSUSE 10.3. I've narrowed it down to flash player being the cause but even after removing it and firefox for a reinstall, it still crashes. Opera has been a little better as the player just crashes and not the browser. pain in the ass. why can't adobe get their shit together? i...

i think i'm gonna get the boxed version.

Anyone actually use it? lol

Anyone still play it online?

it looks like some have mentioned timeouts. the solution is to flush the dns cache. but it seems you have to do this every hour or so. if you do it close enough to the time it resets, you can see there is barely anyone on the boards. just wanted to let you guys know if you didn't already.

Really tired of the BioShock threads so here is somethin different :p Looks like Steam will be getting it on the 28th which is good for me since I bought M2 off of it. Which btw, comes with a warning: With regards to what is in the expansion: anyone else excited for this too? Just...

so i had a win2k sitting around collecting dust and I have MS Virtual PC 07 installed, I figured i'd try and make a really small install and test it out with VPC. right now i'm patching it up (original disc was SP3) but the previous try I made always got stuck on the Saving Settings portion of...

So I'm pretty much dumbfounded right now over this. I'm not quite sure with update did it but when Windows Update ran on Tues and I rebooted, it killed the custom visual styles I had. Now I can only use the default stuff. I've patched, repatched, restored the originals and patched again the...

So i have VPC2k7 on my Vista x64 install. It recognizes the Network Card in both the VPC options and in Win2K. It just can't get an IP at all... Mind you last time i used VPC was on a 1st gen Mac mini and it worked fine with an XP install. But obviously, this is newer hardware. My...

edit: nvm found it...

Interesting article I caught over at TweakGuides that I'm not sure ppl noticed. http://www.opengl.org/pipeline/article/vol003_9/ It tries to get across 3 points: ^^^ In reference to apps that don't go full screen (i.e. Photoshop CS2). That can be rectified by just disabling visual...

Ok so I just received an email regarding beta ET:QW beta keys. It has about 10 listed. Problem is, there is no link to download the beta. Does anyone who signed up for the beta have the link?? Otherwise these are useless.

WHERE IS MY QUAKE WARS OPEN BETA?!!?! I don't want this damn FilePlanet membership I paid for to be a waste...errrrr

Is there a way we could get that put up for a week or two on the front page maybe under the latest headlines part on the right side? I think it would be a cool thing to do for awhile. If not thats ok. You could prolly photoshop it to get rid of the white and allow it to blend in more with the...

I have to say that was pretty quick. Popped up in Windows Update soon as I turned on my comp. Info here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS07-017.mspx

Yeah I'm pissed. MP just crashes back to the desktop no matter what. I've tried running as admin, making sure it was unblocked in the firewall, running it in and OUT of compatibility mode in XP. I dunno what else to try. Anyone else having the same problem? What I don't understand is why SP...
