I remember playing Pong and Hangman way back in the day. Played the hell out of Gauntlet and Galaga in the arcades. Used to sink $20+ a night into Gauntlet playing with 3other people. Doom was what got me hooked online on the PC and then I remember upgrading to a Pentium75 just to play Quake in...

I jumped on this deal and it is a nice upgrade from my BFG 6800 GT OC that I've had for almost 2 years. Couldn't beat it.

Just stumbled onto this thread. I was wondering what other people thought about Monarch. I just cancelled an order for a CPU cooler last week and I called verify that it was being charged back to my credit card. The rep said that it would be about 30 days. I thought that it seemed like an awful...

Here is more of what I was going for. The last one was pretty rough..stayed up too late.

Here is one that I came up with for you: Updated version.

Great site... Brings back some memories. I remember upgrading from a Matrox M3d to a Stingray 128. I stayed with 3dfx all the way up to a Voodoo3, then went to Nvidia. Still have my Voodoo2 somewhere around here.

I have the same board and am currently running a 512 stick in slots 1 and 3 with no problems. Good luck trying to run more than that though.

Raising the Bar is intended as a art/coffee table book. It was not really intended to be something you received with the game. It is an awesome book with alot of great concept art not seen in any of the games. It covers the story of Valve before they even started the original Half-Life. I would...

Well, I'm now able to play the game and enjoy it. Here's what I did... Went into the cfg(C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\username\half-life 2\hl2\cfg) and changed the following: snd_mixahead from 0.1 to 0 and sv_force preload from 1 to 0 Setting any audio option to anything...

Same problem here. Went from the memory leak error to this, but I can actually play the game now. Happens mostly when someone starts talking and when music starts. Great game so far, just kind of lose the immersion factor with the stuttering.

This fix worked for me even though I received a different error. Only took about 20 minuts to download new file.

The only thing overclocked in my system is the processor and I've brought that down 100mhz.

Same error here. Still at work. I'll leave it up to you folks to come up with fix by the time I get home. ;) I've had it pre-loaded for a while now. Had a voucher from like a year ago. Locks up at loading screen with error after choosing new game.

Here is the error I'm getting: "The instruction at 0X241F8977 referenced memory at 0x010AF5C0. The memory could not be read". Same exact spot everytime. I downloaded off Steam.

I'm getting a different error, but I'll try the workaround when I get home from work. Was hoping to play a little bit this morning before work, but received the error. Didn't have time to troubleshoot. Hope it works, thanks!

I get the same thing whenever I start a new game. I never get any further than selecting a new game. It then locks up at the last loading block everytime during the loading screen. I have to alt-tab to see error on desktop. Running latest drivers, etc. and have absolutely no other issues...

I've been using a C4-NGen for a while now and it rules. Couldn't be happier. Better than the everglide I had been using for the past 3 years. The wife has the everglide now...still a great pad.

I think this issue was acknowledged in the original read me for the game. I had the same problem with my soundstorm chip on a NF7-S. Re-installed my Audigy and haven't had the problem since. There are many posts regarding these issues already.

21" Sony trinitron flat screen

No problems here what so ever.

I know its blasphemy here, but I bought my E***glide like 5 years ago and haven't needed anything else. Just clean it with a little pledge and its good to go.

Hey yeah, it looks like Ron likes it, nice job

That looks sweet, nice job.

Didn't the D3 leak run better on ATI cards than on Nvidia cards? Seems to me that Nvidia just did they're homework to make sure it performed.

My 6800 runs the beta great. Didn't DH have problems with Nvidia a while back?

1 CPU 1 chipset 1 vidcard 1 slot exhaust under vid card 2 front intake 1 side intake 2 rear exhaust 1 top exhaust 1 in PS = 11

Been running my 2500 mobile at 2400 mhz with a Volcano 11 right out of the box. I won't go higher than that without a better cooler.

blah, blah, blah, who cares. Thanks for the extra fps Mr. Carmack. Kyle posted this tweak the day after Doom 3 came out... old news.

Thanks! Worked great here.

...you remember playing on inferno(id's quakeworld server) with a 28.8 connection and no 3d card, getting your ass handed to you because you were still only using the keyboard to play quake...the memories

Switched from an ATI 9500 Pro to a 6800nu. Great card. I'm very happy with the switch. I've always had Nvidia cards since my last 3dfx card. I've always tried to get the best bang for the buck. I'll be really happy if can open up those 4 other pipes using Rivatuner.

I believe Greg Coomer at Valve originally posted these screens at the halflife2.net forums. Straight from the source. :) This game will no doubt kick ass. Doom 3 kicks ass. People should just enjoy the games and quit bickering. The one thing I do miss in D3 is the double-barrel shotgun. Boom!

Looks like it's coming along rather nicely... http://half-life2.com/secret/shots/ ...back to getting my ass handed to me in Doom3

Great post...so true

Same problem here. Running Z560s through a Soundstorm. Cuts out and sometimes just alot of static. Seems to be fine when running through headphones.

I remember playing shareware Doom on my 486. The only reason I upgraded to a Pentium 75 was to be able to play Quake...in software. What a blast.

4.1 logitech z-560 THX going through Soundstorm onboard.
