Hi, well my girlfriends laptop was infested with viruses which made it awfully slow so i decided to use the recovery partition and just wipe the whole slate clean. After the recovery, the machine was still really slow, windows setup (choosing areas, languages) even crashed a couple of times...

thanks a lot guys! i've got it working now, you guys are a lifesaver.

Hiya, Please forgive me if I'm making a fool of myself, I've never really touched VB before until now! I'm making a program which will display a wind turbine's power output. I'm taking that data from a control box's log file which is, i think a Tab delimited text file. The output of the...

I like you attitude :) To be honest i don't see what the problem of porn is apart from turning us into horny men and lets be completely honest here. All men are horny. I believe that violent computers games are a method to relieve the stress and angst of everyday life. Seriously...

Hiya guys, I got FF1.5 and now, when i go to websites like gamespot/cnet/ign where you can select what you want to see with the numbers, the whole interface does not load. It's the same with google video. No video loads. Everything works with IE though Any ideas?

surely certain games have certain immoral issues surrounding it. For example, should we let our children shoot people in the head in F.E.A.R then watch their heads roll off? Some games even give children to fight against a certain nationality of people. Is that kind of exposure moral?

It seems recently that Violent pc games are being attacked by the government, media and angry parents. They are trying to ban the sale of these games to minors and restrict them to adults. Surely this sounds like as if they are trying to turn violent games into a sort of taboo like p0rn these...

look at my sig for my gamertag Good custom games: -bumper cars - players with vehicles try to splatter those on foot. those and foot cannot shoot -classic zombies - shotguns and swords -freddy vs jason - yellow spartans start with magnum but can't shoot and run away from the freddy and...

hmm could be a faulty cpu since it passes the memory check and it detects the graphics card. Sounds like when the computer is trying to access the cpu it can't, so it restarts

yep laptops are equally good when you're outside. Switch one on in the subway when you're cold and wahey, a portable heater

that picture with the folder and exclamation mark is the equivilant of the BSOD, only it's irriversible. The Hard disk is gone

would you believe it...i took the graphics card and gave it a good cleaning, replaced my zalman heatsink with the stock one, put it back and it worked. Strange stuff. thanks for the help guys

right i'll monitor the temps and try and see if something is wrong. I've lowered my core all the way back down to 360 and i'll try a couple of games to see what happens. Ram is at 570 Update: No luck, every texture is still messed up. The graphics card seems to be drawing random textures...

Hiya guys, I was playing some nfs when suddenly the textures messed up. lighting, colour and everything else were completely mad. I originally thought 'hmm must be a problem with nfs' so i tried playing a bit of quake 4, and the same thing happened. Here's an image of what it looked like...

Hi guys, i was trying to install itunes 6 on my computer and everything went well until when i tried to start up the program. It gave me an error message telling me that quicktime 7.0.2 is installed, but you need 7.0.3. I tried to search around the internet for 7.0.3 but i can't seem to find it...

normally, when i think about stability, i think about software stability. My system is stable when software never crash.

great job, the site layout looks great and i especially like the font, but here a couple things that you might want to think about: -the two toolbars at the top, one for the individual websites and one for forum, links etc seems to be clashing with each other. I reckon that it would look...

If you've got the dosh, then search for the lian li F1 table. It's completely made of annodized aluminium

halo 2 on live everyday my gamertag is in my sig. add me if you're good at big team

so you would be fine in using a nvidia geforce daiper Xtra?

yeh if you want to be sure, when you leave, just fill it up with filler and paint it grey/black or whatever the colour your stone wall is

or get a hammer drill, that'll certainly put some holes into that stone wall of yours

yeh 'nvidia banshee GTX' sounds awesome i think they should take some names off cool cars. how cool does nvidia nuvolari sound? ATI Cobra? nvidia Sagaris?

so the CPU has some kind of controller which can determine dependencies and reorder the code in the best way to maximise performance?

hey sorry, i was visiting japan last week so i had no internet access. Well i was reading the article on anandtech about PS3's cell processor. It's somewhere in the middle of the article where it mentions the in order/out of order stuff thanks

underrepresentation of races? here are a couple of examples black - GTA:SA, the upcoming 50 cent game asian - Jade empire, Ninja gaiden white - well you tell me... seriously...cnn has too much time on their hands. what happened to creditable journalism in the us?

heya guys, I've been reading some articles about multi core processors and the words In order and Out-of-Order cpu architechtures have been popping out. While i can kinda understand the idea behind an in order architechture, i am completely stumped by the out of order architechture. can someone...

aw damn, i guess i'll just have to wait till xbox 360 comes out. It just makes me wonder why we have tv cards everywhere with video in, but no hdtv card with it. oh well

Hiya guys, do you think that with a HDTV card (possibly a ATI HD Wonder), I can play games at HDTV resolutions through my monitor? I've seen the ATI HD Wonder, but it doesn't seem to have all the connectors needed. Thanks

might as well put it all in an orac3 case

well the mobo chipset is the communicator between cpu and video card, so you might want to try to put a passive heatsink on top of it and see what happens

oh my god.

if you're looking for a good burn in program for the CPU, then i'd recommened prime 95

lol, i was thinking about that. how the hell are you going to switch frequencies? with a jog dial?

yeh it looks great, though what are your temps like?

then you might want to add an audigy 2 ZS to your list then

Ok, my friend has reseated the heaksink, swapped his old PSU back in, but the temps were still at 40. We're both confused as why this has happened. He can't register to hardforums cos he's got on of those generic email accounts. So i'm still in need of help guys!
