    Age of Conan not running in 64bit mode in Vista 64...?

    32bit apps are limited to 2gb total without adjusting the image file as mentioned or adding switches. I know a lot of people started running into this with programs like exchange 03 when he had these servers with lots of ram but it wouldnt put it to use. Here is a guide that details the...

    Server 2003 and XP64 SP2 Released

    applied to a test server and it did not break anything (and i would hope so since it isn't much more than previously released patches) however it DID regress my patch status and i believe 7 previously installed critical/security patches needed to be re-applied. Reading around others have seen...

    ..and I still didn't have to reactivate Vista

    thats the same experience i've gotten when reactivating office2k3 at work after formats as well. they never seem to hassle you. with office it seems you dont even always have to speak to a person, occasionally using the automated system works by itself.

    re-installing vista (msdnaa) version?

    i dont use the AA version of msdn but i did have to reinstall another msdn version. Do not call the regular activation number for help on this if it wont auto-activate online, you'll be wasting your time. You need to call your MSDN support group and of course they are not open 24/7.

    Dual boot with XP installed after Vista

    i followed the instructions from the MS article back in november. works great. vista was installed first, used comp management to create a new partition for XP, ran that install and then ran the BCD commands to get the bootloader working.

    ..and I still didn't have to reactivate Vista

    bios flash on my 965-ds3 gigabyte mobo caused a reactivation. Switching my harddrives to AHCI after inistalling the OS in regular mode caused reactivation. followed the MS kb article on how to do this and they made no mention of it requiring reactivation so i was a little annoyed. and...

    8800 Vista Drivers?

    nothing yet. vista has been available from msdn for a while now but i dont think OEM went live until today? i would expect drivers to be out shortly.. especially since 8800 boxes advertise as being built for vista

    Samsung 205BW Owner's/Review thread

    picked up this monitor yesterday - dont really have the video card to power it in games until my new system arrives but in windows it is great. i have a slight hatch pattern effect as well, like you can see the pixels or something compared to a poor quality crt. its very minor though and not...

    DVI Cables from Radio Shack $12.49

    Nice.. I've been using a freebie DVI cable that was left over at work from a dell ultrasharp. I was wondering though, is there really a difference in quality from the cheapies and the $130 monster cables? Reading customer reviews on various shops hasn't really helped much.. some say their...

    fx5700 overclocked doesn't work?

    Yeah I doubt Asus will respond but we can hope. I figured I just had a lemon but clearly a number of other people have experienced the same problem.. with cards from different manufacturers at that. It's as if the card inadvertantly underclocks itself with any recent driver. I would be fine...

    fx5700 overclocked doesn't work?

    I've got the exact same problem with my LeadTek 5700. With the 56.xx drivers and below overclocking works great, I can easily get it from 425/550 up to 470/610 and all is well, and games run decent. Any driver after(i.e., anything that has came out this year pretty much) that and my FPS...

    Yet another 710T thread

    I had apprehensions about getting an LCD as well.. as far as clarity and cost goes but after readin this board I went with the 710t (despite vinny, lol) and it's awesome. I was really blown away by how sharp it is with DVI and with the one game i play, rainbow 6 3, i dont pick up any ghosting...
