Going to try these. I'm still using 270.61's with no issues but time to move on.
Out later today through EA's Origin is a free legends car and track pack with 2 new driving modes, Drag and Standing Mile.
My understanding is there are 3 ways it's offered to accomadate the way Shift2 was purchased- 1, retail dvd, / 2, EA download, / 3, third party download.
The time it's...
Just a heads up to those playing Dirt3.
The Monte Carlo DLC is available through GFWL market place in- game.
It cost 800pts[$10]. I've only tried the first rally and it was good. Narrow streets and looked great. Wish the game had more rally like this upon initial purchase. Anyway I'm glad...
GOG is now selling some good old EA titles including the above mentioned Privateer and Dugeon Keeper, and Ultima Underworld 1+2. Other titles, 25 in all so far, will follow too.
I think this is great

I fell out of my chair on to the floor and the chair fell on top of me playing Shift.
I'm getting beat be my "rival" in a one on one race and I'm so frustrated the guy is beating me I'm trying to body english [Hard] right, too hard, around a curve and the freakin phone starts ringing! I know...
After the recent Avast problem I decided to go to the MS security essentials program recommended here.
Installed it on my i-7 Vista64 box and it seems fine. Installed it on the wifes XP Pro 32 bit and all was okay until a restart and there is no icon in the notification area of the toolbar...
A friend asked if I knew how to open a 47 mb file that has a .qxp extension.
I found that it is a "Quark" file that can be opened by Adobe In Design or Quark software.
Both are expensive and the file needs to be opened only once so it's not worth the $ to buy either program.
Anyone got any...

Works for me. I installed it and happened to place 2nd and 1st in an event and got my Euro B license . Also hired my first teamate!
fyi Asus has released a new bios, 1701 for the p6t deluxe-[ version 1] that claims improved memory compatability.
I flashed from 1611 with no problems.
Was playing CoD 5 when the screen went black.
Thought maybe it was my oc[i7-920 at 3.360ghz] or the new nvidia 186.18's but after trying a lot of stuff I exchanged the 22" with the wife's 19" and her's worked and mine still didn't.
Google shows this as a transformer failure starting to...

Picked it up at Gamespot here [Ma. and Ct]
Lovin it. Escape From Butcher Bay is redone and looks great.
I just started Dark Athena and am playing the tutorial.
It has multiplayer but no one is out there- at least I couldn't find anybody yet:(
I created a game for laughs and walked around...
Runs good on my old P4 system but I get a black screen trying to play the game upon leaving the menu.
XP32 and XP64bit same thing. It's patched to date. Latest Nvidia drivers.
Only thing different is my hardware.
Is anybody else playing this on a i7 box?
Thanks
In the last few weeks I noticed that when I try to download a game patch from Fileshack and some other files from other sites that upon download the patch is no longer an .exe but says it can't be opened, do i want to search for a program to open it?
When I do Windows says it's a MIME file.

Had the game for a while now but haven't played it in a few days.
Got the 7600GT in sig configured to run 1280x1024/auto/85hz in the games config menu plus just about everthing in the video options set on high or full-no problems.
Today I go to play it and won't run=error.
After reinstalling...
Got the game today at EB's. $29.99
If you liked the first one [ I did ] you're going to like this one!
Looks great. You must have a Shader 2.0 compliant video card with at least 128mb ram minimum, 256 better.
Running it in 1024x768 maxed except AA AF on a 6600gt.
Runs great. 2.8c @ 3.2.

I know a lot of us are waiting for some new games to come out soon so what is everybody playing in the meantime?
I just picked up Jedi Academy for $9.95 at BestBuy. I had skipped it but for that price I grabbed it and it's a lot of fun.
Richard Burns Rally is really good and I just won my...
Bought the card in December and just decided to take a look at the way the hsf was sitting on the chip.
Yikes!
There was no "thermal paste" between the chip and the hs but plenty all around the edges and on the pcb.
It looked like Elmers glue had dripped all over the place.
The copper hs had...
Maybe old news elsewhere but I just got it and it's great.
While I'm a big CMR fan, RBR is more a sim than Colin McRae.
It's hard but a rewarding challenge.
Graphics are excellent. Running 1280x1024 with 2x/2x.

Just got this.
Interesting.
The top of the box says it all, " Think Max Payne, wearing tight skimpy leather" -Next Level Gaming. Good thing it's a girl, Angie Prophet.
Only got an hour in so far. the screens are from a dream/tapping into a security guys thoughts sequence.
First section...
Playing it again. This time with a 6600GT [GF4 before] and I actually laughed out loud.
I was in the basement of the prison, Nova something, and the big lizard/ monster thing was chasing me around and I couldn't kill it. I unloaded all my weapons into it, threw exploding barrels at it etc.
I...
Is another mans treasure.
Tonight I got running the 2nd box someone threw out.
This one's an Asus P3V4x mobo inside a sturdy case with an Asus badge on it.
The power supply was burnt, you could smell it, awful! and the 10 gig Quantum Fireball was loaded with spyware and probably viruses too...
Just got this yesterday and I must say I'm very happy with it.
Best one since CMR2 in my opinion.
Looks great with 6600GT, everything maxed.
No problems so far and I'm on the third rally, Germany.
Playing with a Logitec gamepad and everything is working flawlessly.
There is a patch and I...
I just accquired another BE 6 that I fixed up with a GTS pro vid card and 320 mbs of memory etc. The problem is it's got a 466mhz Celeron in it and I have a P3 650 I want to install instead but the bios is pasword protected.
I cant' flash it cause I can't set it to boot from the floppy cause I...
I had a real hard time with this game when it first came out but it's become one of my all time favorites.
Here are some screens at 1280x1024 detail maxed for what it is.
I think I only have 4x AA on, no AF. I will change that!
I kept the completed game on my hdd and these are shots of...
