    Holy bizzaro world, batman! No 1280x1024x85Hz for me!

    Well, here's the kicker everyone. The monitor drivers *are* loaded and everything was fine on the 7900GT. The strangest part to me still is that it runs at 75hz and 100hz on that res, but not 85... I'm running the latest 163.44s now and am still flipping coin whether to run 16x12 in...

    Holy bizzaro world, batman! No 1280x1024x85Hz for me!

    Ok... So I've been fighting with this for the last ohhhh, 2 hours. I just replaced my BFG 7900GT OC with an EVGA 8800GTS 320MB.. Problems = As soon as I changed resolutions in games to 1280x1024, the games wouldn't load.... or rather... They wouldn't display any graphics. All videos and...

    New System - ASUS P5ND2-SLi + PentD 930 - Issues, Need help

    Bump and further information... The system ran 10 hours of memtest86+ 1.65 with no errors. This was over 7 passes with all tests running on all memory. So, we can probably rule out memory. However, I have noticed even under XP Pro that I get occasional system hangs during 3d...

    New System - ASUS P5ND2-SLi + PentD 930 - Issues, Need help

    Conclusion = XP64 is not ready for primetime... heh. Or more probably - the rest of the world is not prepared for XP64. Running XP Pro w/SP1a now... System is rock solid :) However.... In order to get XP Pro to see the 4GB, I have to throw /PAE in the boot.ini, which in turn causes...

    New System - ASUS P5ND2-SLi + PentD 930 - Issues, Need help

    Nope, nothing useful in there... The only thing I can possibly relate it to is the audio. For instance, I ran a full 3dmark06 benchmark run (score was 4207 I think?) and it had no issues. But, I clicked Demo which has sound, and it hung once during the intro flight, audio continued...

    Cheapest AGP card to run Oblivion well

    I'm thinking maybe I should upgrade my 9500np (softmod..) Still running AGP here as well... Would there be a significant performance increase? I generally run games at 1024x768 or 1280x1024... The 9500np softmod OC's at 364/286..

    Scripting file transfer from logfile

    Calling all [H]Coders... I'm in the middle of a huge project to migrate terabytes of data and need to find a way to parse a log file in the following manner. Every line of the log file looks like this : (Some information changed) 12/17/2005 00:15:18 - DBG - 00104...

    Tech Support Gripes HERE!

    After having worked for M$ support (9x,NT4 Server and W2KPro) for five years, I had heard it all... But the one question that happened at least once a day, that just pisses me off has got to be.... "Double right-click?" WHEN!? WHEN!? Has there ever been a program that required a DOUBLE...

    Fast Archive Program?

    I usually am doing it that way, but it's not the extraction I'm questioning, it's the launch speed of the program, just seems abysmally slow sometimes.

    Fast Archive Program?

    Anyone ever notice how long WinRAR takes to open a rar set of 50+ files?? Is there a better program? I tried 7-Zip, but it would take just about as long, even on a CLEAN install.
