LOL at the LOLRUS!

Yep you will since you will need to install the sata controller when installing windows, or it will bsod. Also having a floppy disc with some partitioning tools on it like fdisk often makes the process easier

Probably a dodgy rip or something that you 'obtained' Don't know what to say really to help. Might be aswell to just buy the game..

if its a dns issue, here is the ip: http://216.239.57.99/

Both google.co.uk and google.com are working here.

my first job was washing dishes in a kitchen. was the worst job because the place served about 200 people for lunch each sunday (which was the only day i worked) and it was just me washing all the crap from these people. terrible job but worth it since it paid for the majority of my pc in my sig...

When I went to create my first hotmail account years ago, I tried duffers at hotmail dot com but it was already in use. Btw my last name is Duffield and alot of people call me duffers for a nickname. Well i tried duffers1, 2 etc until about 6 when i decided to go for 20 just to see if it was...

Looks like it yields a fair performance increase. Thanks for the info.

Aren't the hydravision drives for multimonitor functionality? You should check that you have the latest Radeon Drives for your mobility gfx chip. If my memory serves me correctly, they have an app that will check to see if the mobility radeon drivers are compatible with your gfx chip.

just google the name of the codec and try and find a codec pack.

Daemon Tools ftw

Cool!!! Should be good to have a read. Yeh systems are pretty expensive, just worked out that its gonna cost be about £550 for a new mobo, psu and gfx card! Pretty damn expensive, but worth it.

Yeh I remember reading in cpc that no matter how high they set the graphics settings, it didn't make a difference on performance, even at 1600x1200 with 8xaa and 16xaf in hl2, it ran at like 80fps with all teh other settings on high. They are damn powerful cards and the only reason I think i...

I find that NEP (North East Peripherals) is the best local place for pc stuff. Thats where I bought the parts for my own pc when I first built it (Athlon xp2600+, 512mb ddr333, geforce ti4200 etc.). They are pretty good, just at the top of George street, not the John Lewis end though. I tend...

Em, not all of us overclock our hardware that much. The FX-57 used in teh test was cooled with dry ice and clocked at about 3.6ghz and the gfx card was also cooled witih dry ice with the memory running at almost 2ghz and the core at 900mhz. Now thats extreme overclocking and you can't really use...

I'm sure if you really wanted to, you could buy an old card from ebay or something and then enter.

Yeh thats what i'd do, raptor for games, apps, windows etc and a larger drive for mp3's, app installers, videos etc.

I only use PC World for ink cartridgdes and stuff like that. Other than that, I don't go in there for pc stuff. The workers are the worst ever apart from the odd decent ones (or atleast thats what its like in aberdeen), they don't have a clue about stuff and also they try and get you to buy the...

Thats what I think I will do then in a couple of weeks, get the 7800gtx, the seasonic psu and a asus a8n-sli mobo! I mean if i need to, then I can always save up and add a 2nd gfx card in sli if i need the extra performance boost!

My mate who has a fx5900 tried out some 81.** beta drivers and he said that he experienced some dodgy black spots in css. Anyone else found this yet?
