    So... is MW2 actually fun? (Flame-free please. Looking for actual opinions...)

    Hosting like this isn't possible for a normal FPS like this. The game is like all other shooters out there, except you can only create listen servers. There is always 1 host and other people connect to him. That being said, there are enough fast & low latency home connections out there that...

    So... is MW2 actually fun? (Flame-free please. Looking for actual opinions...)

    It is a blast if you are on a fast enough connection that you are always chosen to host. It is less flexible than Call of Duty 4, but is a great game and definitely very polished. However, if you are not on a great connection or don't have control over your networking situation, I would not...

    Future Mark Game

    I really like the looks of this game. For that price, I picked it up instantly. This is the best "shooter with a gimmick" I've seen in a while.

    Really? I feel like a moron now. Will be patching ASAP.

    ATI Catalyst 9.10 Released

    Thank you for this. I'll try it when I get home. I like Windows' new, modern security that happened with Vista, I just wish that there was an easy way to always get superuser access like in Linux for when you want to force things. I just found out today that the shortcut to launch things as...

    ATI Catalyst 9.10 Released

    Definitely not. On my 4890 in 9.9 it still had the black terrain problem, and now on my 5850 with whatever beta drivers it used the problem is still there. I have not installed the 9.10s yet, I'm hoping that they fix it. It is hard to force the game to go DX9 because Windows 7 doesn't wan't to...

    ATI Catalyst 9.10 Released

    So this is a widespread problem? My 5850 does this if I set the clocks manually at all. I get large amounts of flickering on the display connected to the second DVI port even if I manually set the clocks at stock or lower. I cannot use overdrive at all. :( Also, they still haven't fixed Anno...

    XFX 5850 w/ Apple 24" LED

    Yes. This is not my main monitor, it is a friend's display. I'm using it until he finished his i5 build, he is hoping to be able to use a 5850 with it. I don't know how he plans to solve the brightness problem, it drives me nuts. I was the test platform, we assumed that if my 4890 worked with it...

    XFX 5850 w/ Apple 24" LED

    I am using the exact same cable that you posted to go from a Diamond-branded 4890 to a refurbished LED CD just like you are. I never got the drivers working to adjust brightness, though.

    XFX 5850 w/ Apple 24" LED

    It's not an ATI driver issue. I use an Apple LED Cinema Display with my 4890.

    fallout2 vista

    Apparently just my machine. There's a limited group having some crashing to desktop issues with Fallout 3. They seem to be sound related, theres a thread in games about it.

    fallout2 vista

    Fallout 3 however, does not. That means I'm sticking to Fallout 2 for a bit longer :). Hopefully Bethdesa can patch their way out of this one!

    fallout2 vista

    I've got it working just fine, but I bought the Gog.com version. I'm not sure if vanilla fallout 2 will work, but I'm having no issues on Vista Ultimate x64. Just finished a play through, in fact.

    Here we go again....

    From my experience, Crysis is very sensitive to overclocks. Are you running any overclocks at all? I generally get nvlddmkm messages when my memory is clocked too high, artifacting when my shaders are clocked too high, and crashes when my core is too high.
