    USB device problem in Windows 7

    Ok, just an update, but I fixed it by accident. A friend suggested plugging it into a USB hub and Windows picked it up as an HID-compliant game controller. And to add another wrinkle to that, if I boot up my system with the HitBox already plugged in (into the USB hub) it registers as an Xbox 360...

    USB device problem in Windows 7

    I bought a multi-console HitBox to play fighting games with and it uses a PS360+ board. I tried plugging the HitBox into my computer, but I always get a "USB Device Not Recognized" message. After that Windows 7 installs a driver for "Unknown Device" and is listed under USB Devices in Device...

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Announced for release on 11/11/11.

    Hmmm...just noticed something strange. The sun was setting so the shadows were long and while I was running in the third person mode, I noticed my shadow didn't have a head. It only seems to happen with an Ebony Helmet equipped. With all other helmets or no helmet at all, my character's shadow...

    GeForce 290.36

    Same issue with me except I'm using a single GTX 570, not SLi. I am using two screens at 1920x1200, one for games and the other as an extended desktop. My main screen was fixed by going to 1920x1080 and back like you suggested, but my second screen wouldn't change. When set to 1920x1080 it...

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Announced for release on 11/11/11.

    Hmm...got a small download for Skyrim on Steam. It was 18.6MB and people are saying the only thing changed is the TESV.exe. I'm not sure what changed about it though.

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Announced for release on 11/11/11.

    I've got a couple of quick questions: 1. Is it possible to make all followers dual wield weapons, or is it specific to certain followers? I can't get Aela to dual wield weapons (I've tried all combinations of sword/dagger/axe), but she does use a weapon and shield. 2. I completed The...

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Announced for release on 11/11/11.

    I ran into a strange bug after I finished the main Thieves Guild quest line, so I wanted to see if anyone else had this.

    Gears 3

    Does anyone know if stats/unlocks are stored locally or server-side? For example: if I have to format the hard drive or use a friend's XBox with my gamertag, will I be able to recover my stats/unlocks?

    New Betas avaliable. 285.27

    In the full release notes (not the short ones usually post with the drivers) it says there's some issues with fullscreen HD playback for Flash. It says it's fixed in the 11.0.1.83 or later version of Flash, so I installed the newest RC for Flash 11 and it worked.

    New Betas avaliable. 285.27

    Yeah I'm always wary of using stuff like driver sweeper. Nvidia's drivers have a "clean install" function anyway and it works.

    New Betas avaliable. 285.27

    Anyone else have any problems with YouTube or other flash videos? It seems that when I change to fullscreen it goes down to 10fps, and then it can only be fixed by clicking a different position on the tracking bar. I did an install over the old drivers so that it would keep some profiles, but...

    The Modern Warfare 3 Thread, No BF3.

    So after reading your question about one subscription for multiple platforms, I did a little digging for info since I was planning to get both the PC and xbox versions. I mainly play on the PC, but I have lots of friends who are on the xbox also. Here's a link to Dan Amrich's blog. He's...

    The Modern Warfare 3 Thread, No BF3.

    After a quick search on Google, it looks like there will be some sort of Elite version for the PC. A couple of results that came up from the search are saying that there will be no Elite beta for PC users, and that we'll have to wait until the Elite launch on Nov. 8 to try it out. Going to the...

    Starcraft II

    Yeah I know we can play people in other divisions depending on how well we're doing, but it was a weird night. We do fairly well against Gold teams, and can hold our own versus plat and diamond teams. In our first match (which we won) we got placed against a Silver team. The next match we lost...

    Starcraft II

    Hmm. I just got playing some 2v2s with a friend and tonight wasn't so great (we went 1-3) but I noticed something odd. On our last loss, we lost no points. I know this can happen if you're at the bottom of your division, but we're at the top of our gold division right now. Does that mean...

    Brink, thoughts?

    So for the others that ordered BRINK off D2D, was there only one key for you? Like no extra key for the pre-order stuff? I added my key to Steam, but was expecting another key for the extra stuff.

    Mortal Kombat (2011)

    Oddly enough, I enjoyed the story mode quite a bit. Getting to play as various characters was definitely fun. :D Finding the hidden characters in Arcade Mode is such a PITA. I happened across the hidden Klassic Reptile easy enough. I happened to be on the Pit (Night) stage and saw a...

    XFX Radeon HD 6990 Drawing!

    I've had a couple of XFX cards and they always ran great. Now the 6990...two GPUs on one card, and the fastest single card out there now? Hell yes! :D

    Mortal Kombat (2011)

    I also found the controller to be easier to use than expected. This is most likely because the Street Fighter games require quarter/half/full-circle motions for move inputs. Using your example of Ryu's hadouken, you have to hit down, down-forward, and then forward. Hitting all three points is...

    The Portal 2 Pre-release Thread - Now Decrypting!

    So is the early release only going to be for Steam? I pre-ordered (the PC version) at GameStop because I happened to be there already and it was 10% off. Oh well...I'll wait for it either way. I've got a bunch of work to do this weekend anyway. :mad:

    The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings ann.

    Wow, this looks amazing. Though I'm tempted to go for the Collector's Edition, what is the best place to buy a regular edition (digital download preferred) in the US?

    Official Crysis 2 Thread

    So I just finished the game on Post-Human Warrior difficulty (second time through, first time was on Normal). I spent time collecting things my second time through. After my first playthrough I noticed that my found weapon attachments was at 12/13. On my second time through, I started picking up...

    A lot of what happens (or has happened) is explained towards the end of the game.

    Official Crysis 2 Thread

    Is anyone else having problems with your nano catalyst count? I started my second playthrough (on the hardest difficulty this time) and was planning on upgrading the rest of the suit abilities. I had about 1500 and was going to upgrade something which cost 1600 nano. After killing the first Ceph...

    Official Crysis 2 Thread

    I'm playing on a 24" monitor and the default FOV is 55 (vertical). I tried 75 and 90 (I liked 90 the most), but like I said in an earlier post, there's camera clipping issues with high FOV. Do you have that problem with your FOV in Eyefinity?

    Official Crysis 2 Thread

    Well damn. Setting a high FOV (I tried both 75 and 90, since Crysis seems to use vertical FOV) results in the camera clipping into the environment at the edge of the screen. It happens when you approach the designated "cover spots" where Alcatraz will point his gun up and you can use the mouse...

    Official Crysis 2 Thread

    Well I just sat through an hour of EA support chat and I still can't start the game after patching. The rep told me they're sending my issue on up because it's more "complicated". It sucks that I can't play the game at all.

    Yeah I've got the same problem now. Neither the regular exe or the launcher will work.

    Dragon Age II

    Yeah I tried High DX11, but I was still getting an average 30-40 fps, which I thought was odd. Are you using SSAO also, or no? I'll probably try a clean install of the latest beta drivers when I get home.

    Dragon Age II

    I wish nVidia or BioWare would say something about the DX11 performance problems. I'm playing in DX9 with high-res textures (which is fine), but I'd like to play at the maximum if possible.

    Dragon Age II

    Alright, thanks for that. I'm using a GTX570, so I guess I'll be playing on DX11 High detail until new drivers are released. I'll probably run it in Highest just to see how performance is anyway.

    Dragon Age II

    Can anyone using a GTX570/580 tell me their performance with the latest beta drivers? I was browsing the Guru3D forums and some people were having ridiculously low framerates with a GTX580 on DX11. Since I won't be getting the game until tomorrow, I can't test it out myself.

    Dragon Age II

    Does UPS ever drop off the package at an apartment office if a signature is needed? I know FedEx will take it to my apartment office. Oh well, I guess I'll be waiting until tomorrow to play.

    Dawn of War 2 Retribution

    My Steam ID is [email protected] if you want to add me. My friends name is currently hkEvo, so it should change to that once you send the invite. I'll be pretty busy until Wednesday, so I'll probably be playing the campaign mainly until then.

    Dragon Age II Demo - Feb. 22nd

    They've actually said that DX11 wasn't done for the demo which is why there are so many problems with it. It's done in the final game though. http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/294/index/6151799

    Dragon Age II Demo - Feb. 22nd

    For those having problems with DX11, from what I've read on the DA2 forums, DX11 isn't completely implemented in the demo. It will be in the final version though. I had extremely low framerates and graphical glitches in DX11, but switching to DX9 fixed everything. Unfortunately DX9 is limited to...

    Dragon Age II Demo - Feb. 22nd

    Well, the demo's up now, but the server is pretty much overloaded (which is isn't surprising). I'm downloading the Shogun 2 demo in the meantime.

    The Boy Who Stole Half-Life 2

    Very interesting story, but what Gabe was doing was not entrapment. Entrapment is basically making someone commit an illegal act that they would have otherwise been unlikely to commit. Gabe wasn't trying to get him to do anything illegal.
