I've been using Vista since it launched I love this OS.
It seems to be however that my vista machine is slowing down. The only example I can think of is opening WMVs in Media player. The last time I formatted my drive (about six-eight months ago) it opened in about one second and played...
I'm trying to figure out what would be better for my new game setup. After look at my budget and finding out there isn't any way I can afford a a 40-46 inch 1080p TV (might as well do it right, eh?).
So now I've decided to keep my gaming in the office/computer room. Where I now game on a 22"...
I subscribe to comcast cable internet and I use a Linksys WRT54G ver 3 router that is about two-three years old.
Here is my problem, every other day or so (sometimes sooner, sometimes longer) my connection to the internet closes through the router. I can plug into the modem directly and it...
Hello everyone, I'd really appreciate your help on this. I've tried googling this but I'm not sure I understand this very well.
I have a BenQ 22" monitor (link below). I have it hooked up to my PS3 and X360. The PS3 is connected via HDMI and the X360 VGA. Now here is what I'm confused...

Like thousands of other gamers I'm eagerly blasting through Bioshock on my Xbox 360 (second repair three months ago) and equally eager to let the Halo 3 DVD spin in the machine next month.
However I'm worried that my Xbox is about to show me a deady red ring any day now. Last night while...
Is this happening to anyone else? I've been using Vista since official release but I've noticed this problem coming up a lot lately.
For example it happened tonight when I tried to start the installer for the Metal of Honor demo.
I start the installer (it has a security icon on the lower...
Hi.
I am looking for a gaming TV solution for my gaming room. What I want to do is have a 20-26" HD LCD TV for use with my PC, PS3, and Xbox360 (and maybe Wii if I ever find one).
What do you all recommend? Something else to ponder, I've seen a few LCD 23" LCD TVs and while they look...
Hello!
I am thinking of upgrading my X1800XT to an NV 8800GTS. Please check sig for other specs, my concern is my processor, it's a P4 3.6 stock which I purchased about two years ago. The question is, should I wait until I can afford a new computer (with Core 2 Duo)?
The thing is I don't...

Anyone have this problem? No matter what I set my windows settings to (group by, window size, icon size, etc) when I boot up they are all different from what I set before shutdown.

Anyone want to drop some tips for faster gaming in Vista?
Just about the only thing I do now is disable the Desktop Windows Manager when playing games, that seems to give a performance boost. Anyone else?
Hello. I am contemplating upgrading my X1800 XT 512. Recently, it has been acting out a bit, meaning from time to time there will be green (and other color) flickers across the screen. Other times the screen will have like a green sheen too it (can't explain better than that). Nothing really...
Hey all.
I'm getting these errors everyone once in a while, maybe twice or three times each session of using Windows.

I installed Vista Ultimate but it won't recognize the Dell 1450 Wireless USB adapter OR the MS MN-510 USB wireless adapter.
Anyone have these issues, or am I going to have to buy an ultimate (lol) long ethernet cable?
THANKS!
Will 32-bit drivers work with Vista 64bit? I'm specifically asking about the driver for a Dell USB wireless adapter used to link the computer with a wireless router.
Also, I currently have the 32-bit version of MS Office 2003. Will this install and work on my computer if I install the 64...
Has this happened to anyone? About three hours after playing FF XII on my PS3 (35hours into the game) I boot up the PS3 and FF XII. At the load screen it tells me there are no memory cards inserted and the game needs memory cards to save.
A single drop of sweat later...I hurry to the XMB...

I am contemplating the purchase of an Nvidia 8800 GTX to replace my ATi 1800 XT 512.
I was wondering if my current processor is going to basically bottleneck the video card so much that it wouldn't be worth the current price?
Should I prolong my purchase...

Does SONY offer an extended warranty on the PS2 (and PS3 in the future) the way Microsoft does for the Xbox and Xbox 360?
I owned three PS2's as one broke down after the other, most of the time due to hours of DVD usage combined with hours of gaming. Which kind of makes me not want to buy a...
[H]ello,
I was wondering if there are any benefits of have virtual memory turned on when it comes to game performance?
