Hey Minerel, time for a new thread :P I'm just about to run out to get the bus for work, so I can not respond now sorry And my mate did contact Microsofts support, and they were the ones that told him he activated too much.

NO support for OpenGL? I have UT2004, and it has DirectX, OpenGL and even Software rendering . . . And yes, Quake I,II and III all have Linux binaries that you can download to make the original Windows-compatible CD you bought work (you install the binary you download, and copy some files...

I had this a while back, infact, a reformat did not help properly. The problem will most likely return unless you find out what caused it. Are you using a legal version of Windows XP? Have you checked your RAM? MemTest After about 2 reinstalls within 2 months, we switched to Linux. No problems...

I have a Pentium 4 2.4GHz 512MB RAM SiS Integrated graphics for my family main PC running SUSE 9.1 Professional. The decision was after a non-l3g4l copy of Windows XP Pro died for the 2nd time, and were not paying about £120 for XP Pro, it's just too much. It is serving us well, OpenOffice.org...

My case is specially modded Car-paint finished case with some very special scratches that transportation in a car to a LAN party is responsible for. . . . As for the noise of my case, its as loud as my hoover. It also heats up my bedroom so my room is nice and warm when I get off my PC and go...

Another thing to try is to move your Temp folder somewhere else: Control Panel, System Properties, Advanced, Environment Variables, and edit the TEMP and TMP options. Theres the ones for User and the ones for System. The BF2 patch program is probably extracting files to the temp folders, which...

I had the same problem, however I got round it by deleting junk. . . it's a major flaw in the BF2 patch. My Windows is installed to the K: partition and BF2 to the L: partition. I guess your gonna have to move some big folders away, patch up BF2, and put back all the big folders. It's the only...

Nice! You're giving me ideas now . . . :P

Main reasons people don't like iPods are due to the fact they are so bright white, and can attract muggers. Also they need to be loved and looked after to keep them looking new. I personally don't know about the quality of the iPods though, but a guy I know from college says the iPods are the...

WinCleaner Ultra has an option to move installed programs over, but its a comercial program http://www.download.com/Ultra-WinCleaner-One-Click/3000-2094_4-10263995.html I got my version free with a magazine I got Use the trial to move stuff over I'm not advertising, im helping :P

Doesn't work for all games since alot require registry entries. Quake III should cope with that though.

There is quite some difference: 8 bits to a byte 1.5Gbps = 187.5MB/s 150MB/s = 1.2Gbps

I thought my S-ATA was 150MB/s (or is it Mbps?) while normal IDE goes up to 133MB/s Is it Bytes or Bits?

Best use two 512MB DDR400 in slots 2/4 then If you have to use all modules at DDR400 try running them at DDR333 speeds
