I sent off for some free stickers as described above. This morning I got a CD packed with information on AMD's 'Breakthrough 1.33ghz chip' and new 'AMD-760 MP' chip. I guess I'd better go and buy a sticker. All I'm after is an Athlon one to put on my system case.... which currently has a SuSE sticker on it. Dilligaf

I bought this card yesterday - (As it was going very cheap) and is a lot better than my old gf2mx. Anyway - I noticed as I was putting it in my pc that the onboard fan has three wires. Which suggests to me that it can read the speed of the fan. My question is this. Does anyone know of a utility that can read the fan speed on the card? Cheers Dilligaf

This may sound silly - but what about the reverse. I want to use Mandrake 8.2 as a Router Box..... I have two Windows XP machines. I must be honest I have no experience of Linux :-( It installs ok on the router machine - I can go on the internet and everything just fine... But the other ethernet card is disabled. I've swapped the cables over to see if the card works in linux and it's ok - so it's gotta be a settin in windows OR linux that I don't get. Any help would be MUCH appreciated. If you need to ask any questions please do. Dilligaf

It is quite a nice burner isn't it? Also a great step up from my old one 8rx4rw (put it in my wifes pc - she hasn't noticed) I think the best thing i've done with it is create video cd's. My old samsung 709 dvd doesn't read cdr's and the only way i can do a vcd is by doing it on a cdrw. The 12x rewrite is briliant. Dilligaf

I am still undecided as to what phone to get next.. at the moment I'm quite happy with my Samsung A300. I use it while i'm out with my pocket pc too. Dilligaf

Ok - Here's a weird one... I have three Machines at home 2 with windows XP and one with Windows2000 The problem I have is with the windows2000 machine. Specs are K6-II 380mhz 64mb pc100 ram (more on this in a momemnt) 2xNIC cards 1xWestern Digital Pipeline 2mb vga PCI card I use this machine as a router for the other two machines. The 2mb card performs ok for what I use it for... Unless I add more ram. Yup - I nicked an extra 64mb out of my wifes machine and put it in my router taking it up to 128mb ram. As soon as I did this the gfx settigns fell to 16colours. Normally the card will run at 32bit in 800x600 (which is all the monitor does) but as soon as I add the extra ram the properties state the gfx card only has 256k ram instead of 2mb. Aside from buying a new gfx card - which I don't really want to do as it IS only a router - does anyone have any ideas as to what's going on here? Don't get me wrong it works OK with 64mb - but I was wondering if there would be less HDD use if it had 128mb. Dilligaf (thanks for your time)

I bought a Liteon 40x12x48 cd writer :-) And a nice new leather chair. I had more fun putting the chair together........ Dilligaf

I played with this for a couple of days and gave up in the end. Seeing as there was hardly anything on the hdd anyway - I reinstalled Windows. Dilligaf

I've got a problem With my Media Player.... If I open a window with audio in it - eg my mp3 folder and double click then theres no problem - Media Player pops and plays the file. If - on the other hand - I try to open a file from Media Player it immidiately locks up and hangs untill I terminate it from task manager. Does anyone have any idea how to get it working again? Due to a new Hdd - This XP is a pretty new installation - I've only got MS Office XP and Dungeon Siege on here so far. Dilligaf

I've downloaded these drivers... Everytime I run the setup it says that it could not detect any Sound Blaster Audio card in my system. I have a Live 5.1 Any ideas what's going on? Dilligaf

Thanks for that :-) Dilligaf

Thanks for that Hykster - This is the problem tho - I change the settings in the control panel and 2 or 3 reboots later it is back to 2 speakers!!! Dilligaf

Hello again!!!! Yep - you are all being so helpful that I've got another question I have a Live 5.1 sound card in my system hooked up to a set of 5.1 speakers. About every 3rd or 4th time XP restarts the sound only comes out of the front 2 left/right speakers. I'm using the XP drivers. Any ideas? Dilligaf

You could install Tclock - i have it in on my task bar - seconds and all :-) Dilligaf

Pardon - I couldn't hear you past the NOISE :-) Dilligaf
