    FX5900 XT issues

    Make sure that the power dongle that you have connected to the card has nothing else (except maybe a fan) drawing power from it. I have a Gainward 5900xt in one of my secondary systems and it is still a great card. It runs all the latest games with no problems. And its a great overclocker.

    OCZ 512 Sticks Don't Play Well Together

    Try reversing them. Put the stick you had in slot 1 into slot 3 and the the one that was in 3 into 1. I had a similar problem with 2 1gig sticks of Crucial in my DFI mb. Blue screens would happen at various times while playing games. Sometimes right away and others after playing for awhile...

    Buying a CRT. Have questions before I decide on 19 or 22"

    You will be very happy if you purchase the NEC FE2111sb. I own one, and it is as good or better than the ones Sony used to sell.

    6800GT Shipped! Questions...

    Since switching between different sets of Nvidia drivers is reletivly safe and easy, try a few of them. Results seem to vary from system to system (especially with the Beta sets). Pretty soon you'll have formed your own opinions and find a set that works best for your system. For me and my lowly...

    MSI GF4 Ti 4800se

    Just about all made 4800's. They are I step above 4400's and one step below 4600's. I had a Gainward 4800se Golden Sample. It overclocked to 4600 ultra specs. Towards the end of the Gforce 4's run, the 4800's were by far the best bang for the buck.

    Did I get a lemon 5900XT?

    My Gainward 5900xt golden sample will run at near 5950 ultra specs, with almost any game I throw at it. The only glaring exception to this that I have tried is Doom 3. For Doom 3 if I set it to anywhere but a little higher than Gainwards stock enhanced setting, the lighting in Doom 3 goes haywire.

    Antec 550tp vs 350tp and my 6800

    The 550 true power is the best PS that I have ever used. I love the fan control. It has really quieted down my rig during less stress times. Especially at night when I'm trying to sleep. ;) ;)

    SP2 and Outlook Express

    When I click start and then click the E-Mail icon it brings up the Internet options box. Before SP2 it would bring up Outlook Express. I do also have a shortcut to Outlook on my desktop, and that works fine. So, this is just an annoying problem and not critical. But does anyone know how to fix...

    So It's Aug 25th......(SP2?)

My problems with SP2 that some programs would not complete thier install (Far Cry patch,Doom3 ) untill I removed...

    61.71 drivers leaked out....wtf?

    I have been running the latest SP2 with 9.0c for about 3 weeks. So far I am amazed how problem free it has been so far. But I would still only reccomend it for the brave. Unless you are one of Microsofts official beta testers you will not get any support for problems it may cause. When the final...
