Hmm,overall, it's relatively good, but gets infuriating. Initial impressions is excellent and so much potential, but as you play on and on it starts dawning on you all the issues. As said, the damage model is veirtually purely aesthetic, stuff comes off yes but performance is unaffected (Finishing a...

Hey Fallen, does yours look grainier at all? The performance is definately better in the full game but can't help but feel it looks a little more jagged, probably more my system than anything else but just wondering. He he, my mates had one really retarded thing happen, was on a mounted machine gun ...

And here's mine

Do you have any hassles with applications? I'm not sure if it is backwards compatible or not, or if you require an interface platform? whats the deal? It's totally backward compatible with virtually any software you can think, and you'd be surprised how many programs have 64bit variants. Just have ...

Well Cyrsis has a 64bit mode aswell, according to Crytek it provides some performance gains but a Google or says performance is exactly the same.

Agreed with Wikid, besides it's all probably just marketing crap anyway. I really hope that the suit powers can be upgraded in the full version, the energy needs to last longer to be of use. Well it runs on my system, Athlon64 3200+ 2 gigs ram and a 6800GT, but all that crap that doomextreme posted ...

All Billion routers support half bridge and pretty much any router you buy will support port forwarding.

I got a Billion 7300G and very happy with it so far

What are you looking for? Comfortable daily commute? Something small? Something big? You want something fast and sporting?

Hmm,then its probably a routesentry problem. Never used it myself so sorry I cant help...

You should have straight cables running from the switch to the pcs, you get switches that autosense and adjust accordingly, but it makes life easier just to have straights. If you can ping the router it means your pcs can connect to it and your problem lies elsewhere. Also, you cant not be using IPs...

Havent the crossfire's already done this? I remember seeing a pic somewhere of three crossfire cards linked, I could be mistaken though. Might've been two cards and a physics card

Hi there all As the title says, I got a couple of questions and issues with Server 2003... First up, is there a way of having RIS running without a domain controller? I really don't want to set one up but want the RIS. I thought about doing a virtual server on my pc since the server will never handl...

Has the router got DHCP? If it does then just select both connections in windows and bridge them, plug everything in and let DHCP handle everything. Works on mine.

Hmm,think i'll chuck it in and have a listen and see... Only problem now is my international cap is finished and I need drivers

Hi there all I was digging around and rebuild some old pcs when I came across an old Sound blaster Live Value in the one pc. I'm running onboard AC 97 on my pc at the moment, I was wondering whether sound quality would be any better if I used the sound blaster instead? Only problem I see is that the...

Its SATA

Hi there Does anyone here use Zenworks? When trying to make an image of a Dell Precision 390 it picks uip the drives and then when you try and make the image it fails immediately with a segmantation fault. Theres no files it refers to or anything. The Dell is running Raid 0 but it picks up the drive...

The greatest optical illusion ever?

Is this right? Got a 4 meg line at home. Using openbrowse at the mo tho

Lookup a program called spiceworks. Not sure if its exactly what you want, just saw it and looks pretty good. It can monitor open processes, send custom alert and all that. Can even monitor ink on your networked printers apparently

I think the idea of wikipedia is great, the topics are left open for those who know what they're talking about to edit it and mistakes can be fixed. However its also wiki's downfall when you get the equivalent of "LOL first post!" or vandalised topics. On the whole I would say its not that...

Woo, was looking very interesting and wanted to go, then saw the price, R6500 minimum 8O I aint such a roller. You cant just go in day by day can you?

If you tune my car again I am going to kill you. You go girl Oh and apparently the Corvette C6 also runs on leaf springs amazingly enough :? He he, show in american Handling :o And yes I am acting militant because Golfs are passionate cars,Golf1's are everlasting - deal with it. Oh and another thin...

absolutely wrong - in 1984 there was no mk2 - the original gti was the mk1 and there was a mk2 gti later - the mk1 gti started the hot hatch trend - if you dont know about it then you dont know anything about cars and shouldnt see fit to add a beligerent 2c in a car post besides to learn about thes...
