If you have no plan of gaming on that computer, you should invest on a workstation class card. Something like nvidia quadro or ati firepro. They will be better suited for your photography editing and video editing work.
sigh! sort of realize it has became a lost cause now. funny how my old nvidia 7100gs is still ticking while ati 4870 (after a year suddenly decided not to power the display) and 6850 both died from unnatural causes.
Until now I have never had any problem with this card. Started with crashing and showing vertical lines or grey screen when i played movies. Then progressed to showing only 640x480 and 256 color. I have tried to swap different driver, reinstalled windows (now driver doesn't install, and gfx card...

No current plan on updating my system, perhaps when octa core becomes main stream.
i am using international version of the galaxy s2, and fortunately i don't need any 3rd party app to enable hotspot. the functionality is built in. if you are using the same phone, check under, settings> wireless & network - more... > Tethering and portable hotspot. if you want to turn on and...
using galaxy s2 with v 4.0.3 android. I have yet to see the low memory message. most times i run 3-4 programs, and they switch to one another just fine. may be the problem you are facing is a handset specific issue.
i love the feeling of my sgs2's plastic body specially the back cover. too bad sgs3 didnt have such textured finish. i have dropped my phone several times on the floor hard enough to pop the back cover open but not even a scratch let alone any crack.
thanks for the response. unfortunately its warranty period is over. :( but i have already backed up the drive. i guess i will let it run as long as it goes.
Yesterday windows 7 displayed a message asking me to back up my data as the a drive is failing. with HD Tune i found out, my 3 years old Samsung 640GB drive is displaying a Raw Read Error. this is the screen shot of the error message. After that one time, i haven't seen that windows message...
i have the asus ms228h 21.5" display. its a great monitor, but the stand is rather odd as i can not set the display straight up on my desk, it has to be tilted back to some degree. i wished it was a regular no fuss stand. if you like the fancy stand, then it is a great display with very vibrant...
i have this problem using xfi titanium with windows 7, it happens when i use headphone plugged in to my pc, then the headphone settings are activated. some times after restart , headphone settings are still activated even when no headphone is plugged in. so after i switch between speaker and...
you might try to insulate the back bracket of your card, with insulation tape so, there is no direct contact between the case and the back bracket. i am using xfi titanium sound card, and the insulation has helped a lot in removing the background static noise.
just posting to say, after i was giving up on the hissing n cracking sound from my speakers, after i installed xfi titanium i came across this thread. so i took out a black insulation tape and wrapped the whole back bracket of the card with it. used washer between the screw and the back bracket...
another vote for Acronis, i used the Clone Drive option to clone c: drive (50GB) of my dying 640GB drive to a 80GB hard disk - and use it for a week, and cloned that drive again on the primary partition (75GB) of my replaced hard disk. worked like a charm. now i cant imagine installing and...
exactly what happen to my Sapphire 4870 1GB card. black screen and fan running in 100% when ever the pc is switched on. it happened to me just after 13 months of the purchase, local shop provided me with 1 year warrantee so i am all screwed up. :(
lol! yup! i have gone through that baking thread already. came across a local shop who do the repairing of mobo and gfx cards. i will try my luck there first, if it didnt work out, my 4870 is going to the oven. Yum! Yum!
it all started when, i start playing call of duty modern warfare 2 last night. while playing after 20 mins, my monitor suddenly lost power/goes into stand by mode. after a hard reset my computer, have no display and the gfx card fan running into full blast. i notice before there were 3 green led...

okey i finished installing the trial version of PS CS4 on my netbook. after clicking it takes around 10 seconds to load/open the application. this is how it looks on my 10.1 inch screen.

i have been using a HP Mini 110 with N280 atom, 2 gb ram and 250 hd for 2 months now. it came with windows 7 starter which i replaced with windows 7 ultimate. I have not installed photoshop in it, but i use ACDSee to view and edit pictures, and it opens and runs at a reasonable speed. as far as...
i saw a post about the Evony couple of months ago, signed in to see what was all the fuss about. been playing it for the last 4 months. and i am pretty sure i am addicted to it.
hehe! surprised to see no one mentioned it yet. 4890 has its own set of drivers which is different from 4800 series driver. you need to install driver for 4890. check amd's site for the latest driver.
