Thank you very much for the responses. If I was sure about picking up this computer, then I wouldn't be asking these questions. I wanted to pull from others experiences. I know that a review posted in October doesn't necessarily apply totally at the end of January. Things change and new issues...
I read those reviews. They talk mostly about 1920 x 1200.
I plan on playing MW2, BFBC2, the new Mechwarrior game when it comes out. I don't plan on OCing. I just want something solid that will give me as much of the eye candy as I can get. I want to know how much of the eye candy I can...
I am considering buying this computer. I just don't have it in me right now to build another one and I want something out of the box. I have been reading through threads and reviews here and other places online, but I am not finding much on the 5770 at 1680 x 1050 resolution. The one linked...
That's the survival edition and it's a lot more expensive. I have the CE and it was worth every penny. The bobblehead is on my desk at work and the lunch box is on the shelf behind my desk.
I am loving the game. I also realized what an evil bastard I can be.
Found the drug addict hooker in the shack. She offered me 100 caps to not tell the guy she was hiding from where she was. I agreed and then she sat down in the chair. I used VATS and hit her in the back of the head with my...
Took some searching, but I think the video card is ok.

It's a deactivated item, but the tech specs say HDTV out. Give it a look and let me know what you think please. :D
I plan on buying a HD TV soon and am going to run a cable from my PC to the TV. The monitor was just going to be in the mean time. Probably about 3 months because I heard the prices will be going down over the summer.
I just installed the new Sony Blu-ray drive on my computer.

I installed the software that came with it which is Cyberpower DVD, it's version 7.3...

Does anyone have any experience with this? I am considering this purchase for my PC and would love opinions or reviews. There aren't any reviews on Newegg on it and nothing is coming up that is substantial with my googlefu.

The first link is to an article about Flagship Studios having subscription problems. People have been charged for subscriptions and are not receiving the benefits of the subs. People from Europe being...
Silly question, but thinking of picking this up again. How well does it work on widescreen monitors? I have a 22 inch LG. I don't want to do this if it's going to look like crap.
I ordered Armed Assault from sprocket yesterday. It's bascially the sequel to Operation Flashpoint. It gets released in the US in May, but you can buy it from a couple of places.
I downloaded last night and am trying to run it under Vista 64 Ultimate. Install runs fine and when I try to...
Sorry but when was the last time a game snuggled up with you and kept you warm at night?
It's all about balance. Gaming is just gaming, but a relationship is real life. I enjoy gaming, but RL is much more important.
With the DFI Lanparty, I still could only read 3.25 gig on Vista 64 bit ultimate. I ended up having to go into my bios and enabling the 4 gigs. There is a setting which said enable MB to read more than 4 gig. I enabled that and it showed 4.1 in the bios and Vista 64 is now showing 4 gig...
Thanks, but I thought there was also a problem with Itunes and Vista. Compatibility issues with Vista corrupting the Itunes program and music libraries. You are correct in your answer about which problem I was originally asking about and thanks.
I want to buy an IPOD and am wondering if they have fixed the problems with Vista Ultimate 64 and Itunes yet? I haven't seen anything on it in a while now.
Ok now I am getting frustrated. I went to punkbuster.com

I downloaded the files for the player.
wc001294.htm
wa001375.htm
pbsec.htm
I put them where it said to put them in the instructions. Any suggestions on what I am doing...
When I did that, the format part flashed for a second and then was gone. It appeared to format it while doing the install. I don't know if that is right or not, but it's how it appeared.
I checked on the EA support pages and couldn't find anything that would fix this. Basically, Vista Ultimate 64 is not playing nice with punkbuster. I keep getting kicked out of the game. I got BF2 to work though so it's confusing me. In BF2 what I did was find the exe file and clicked on...
Geez, I didn't mean to start all of this.
I am not concerned with that stuff because the only thing I plan on upgrading on this computer is the video card to the R600 when it comes out. If I do more upgrading than that, then I will end up building another beast ;) and getting another OS...
I decided to do the Vista Upgrade Anytime thing. How long does it take to upgrade? It's been going over an hour now. I am upgrading from home premium to ultimate and going through the best buy site. At the bottom of the screen it says it could take several hours to upgrade.
It looks like it...
