    have you tried running the setup in w2k compatability mode?

    SB Audigy

    nope it will not happen. Creative has too broad of a market to ever end up being like 3dFX. Now with one unified OS then creative will make sure their newer cards have the XP support that the live! cards didnt have for 2k.

    Via KT133A or AMD AMD761???

    if you buy a **** motherboard you will have problems. That is why if your buying motherboards you go with Abit or Asus. I have never had a problem with mobos from those companies. They might be a bit more expensive but its worth it.

    Sound card options

    Either get a Hercules Game Theater XP, or a Santa Cruz, both are excellent sound cards. I have a SC and it is a great card.

    Via KT133A or AMD AMD761???

    If you are looking at a VIA chipset go with the Abit-KG7 raid or basic. I recently built my friend a system pretty much similar to mine T-bird 1.33 and Abit KT7a. Out of the box the thing wouldnt get farther than 3 mins in windows, then i went to VIA hardware and checked the KT7a FAQ and updated the BIOS to 4r and turned P&P OS Off in the BIOS and now the thing is rock solid stable. No SB Live! issues or GeForce 2 issues. So the problems with VIA have pretty much been sorted out you just need to update the BIOS on the boards.

    SafeBurn vs. BurnProof

    burnproof/safeburn are a gimic. They work yes but if you know what media to buy and what the top burn speed for your media is you should not run into problems. I have a Sony 12/10/40, and i have only burned 2 or 3 coasters using it but that was because i tried burning a CD at 12x using media certified for 8x. So in the end it doesnt come down to the burner that much anymore but it comes down to the media. Good media = Good burn Bad Media = Coaster.

    Am I the only 1 who thinks EA are ignorant sluts?

    i agree with you guys on EAs stance about games. I could understand not supporting it when 2k came out because many people didn't believe that 2k was going to be a popular gaming platform, but now more than a year after its release 2k has become pretty much standard on all gamers machines. Most software companies have realised this and are now support 2k out of the box for newer games and for older games they are releasing patches. EA has done none of this, they have even gone to the point of making games work on XP but still not on 2k, i will never buy an EA sports game in my life or any EA game at all.

    Disabling Product Activation

    why do i want to crack it?? Easy. I change hardware out of my computer at least 2 or 3 times a week, especially when im working on a system it changes a lot, so that would require reactivation at least 2 or 3 times then you have to call. Im sorry i don't feel like calling someone to sit on hold for 20 minutes to get a new product key and have to go thru the same rigamarol again in a month. Thats why people disable activation. Why do i help people that support vvarez?? Because im a nice person and i don't care where the product came from i treat everyone here with the same level of professionalism and respect they deserve pirate or not. My job is to help people and that is what i come here to do.

    Holding the ICON settings in XP folders

    set the preferences for the folders you want then go to folder options and hit make all folders like current one. Then it will save them. Or when closing out the window hold down ctrl and go to file-->exit

    Disabling Product Activation

    the lines DO NOT disable product activation. They just disable the popup balloons. And BladeRunner, who cares where they get the product and what they use it for, we are here to help people not ***** about where the software came from. If you choose not to help people with software 'obtained from irregular channels' i will.

  14. I like XP a lot. Most people say that its just 2k with eye candy. Your wrong, XP is faster, more stable, and easier to use than 2k. Not to mention the new features XP has such as better driver support, better compatability, and better game support. I like 2k but when i use it the speed is just not there, its an extra 1 minute or so until the OS is fully usable, the OS is IMO a better refined version of 2k.

    Anyone use HPT370 under XP

    i would get the kg7-raid better than the kt7&7a because it doesnt use a VIA northbride only a southbridge, VIA is by far the worst company when it comes to south and northbridges, so i am never going to buy another VIA made board again. But the KG7-raid is a damn good board, its hard not to be able to beat it.

    New Window Blinds XP build out

    no you dont need object desktop installed. I wouldnt mind it but i can never find a crack or full version of it. If you go to different websites such as www.wincustomise.com or some other sites you can find different WB themes

    RC2 and no QuickTime plugin

    its also well known that sometimes MS breaks quicktime on purpose.
  21. ThC 129

    RC2 and no QuickTime plugin

    not MS's fault. Dont rag on them. Its Apple's Fault for not making Quicktime work with IE 6. Flash 5 works fine with IE 6, so do most plug-ins. Its not up to the browser maker to make things work with their browser, its up to the browser maker to make a new browser then the companies to update their products to work.

    Plus! for XP?

    all XP plus is going to do is add some new themes and maybe a new media player and movie maker if updates for them are out by then. No reason to buy it. Its not like what Plus did to win95
