    Sticky Key's in W2K Poll Survey!!! Please read!!!!

    Sticky Keys???? Sounds to me like you guys need to cut back on the candy....or some other activities. I have an Intellimouse Explorer with Intellieye connected by USB and a PS2 keyboard and I have not experienced any sticky key problems. I don't know if this will help or not but every time I put together a system for somebody I always go into the bios and set the typematic rate to the highest it will go. My mobo is an Abit BE6R1. Windows 2000 Pro and AS run perfect. Games I am playing right now in NT5: Unreal Tournament Quake 2 & 3 Ultima Ascension Urban Chaos Baldur's Gate Half-Life & Opposing Force ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run

    New monitor, better preformance?

    It's not really the new monitor it's more the fact that you are probably using a higher refresh rate. ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run

    Tomb Raider III on NT

    You can't. Tomb Raider 3 requires DX6. NT4 only has DX3. I don't know if the DX5 hack for NT4 will work for that game. ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run
  8. Geesh..I don't know if I should even respond to this post...it is really irritating me! Let me get this straight. 1. You upgraded 98 to 2000. (BIG NO NO) 2. You then copied 2000 from your old hard drive to your new hard drive. (real big no no). If you were gonna do that you should have first copied 98 to your new hard drive and THEN upgraded to 2000. Almost any computer expert in the world though is not gonna have any respect for you unless you do a CLEAN installtion of 2000. ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run

    To all you "wonderful, l33t" Sr members

    Looking for S540 drivers? Go to www.savage2000.com *YAWN!!!* took me a whole 2 minutes to find 'em too. Anybody want me to find 'em anything else? BRING IT ON!!!!! Tip: For all your searching needs use www.google.com Tip 2: You get what you pay for. ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run

    Page File with 256 meg ram?

    Do a search of forum. Also just set the minimum to 512 or something and set the max to whatever the heck ya want. If you want a better way of wanting to know what size you should set your swap file size to. Get a swap file monitoring utility and monitor your swap file while using your computer. ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run

    Win2K Upgrade Question (from Win98SE)

    Don't listen to the guys who tell you to get the full version. GET THE UPGRADE VERSION. The ONLY difference between the FULL and the UPGRADE version of Microsoft's OS'S. Is that during the istallation process the OS will ask for a previous Windows installation be it Windows on your HD,CD, and floppy. If you want to blow $319 bucks then go ahead...but if you want to save ALOT of money then buy the upgrade version. ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run

    STB Velocity 128 ZX w/TV Out?

    The only way you guys are going to get tv out is if you go e-mail STB/3DFX. Nvidia drivers never have and never will support tv-out. ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run

    How to convert from NTFS to FAT32 in Win 2000 Pro?

    I do know know of any programs that can convert NTFS 5 to FAT16 or FAT 32. Supposedly Powerquest is working on a patch to implement this into Partition Magic 5.0 but I am not sure. The easiest thing to do would be to make an extra FAT16 or 32 partition or to stick in a second HD.

    Creative DVD 6x Encore dxr3

    Did you install the Sigma Designs Software first and THEN the drivers? It's been awhile but I think that's what your supposed to do. You can also go to www.dvd-utils.com and download Zone Selector. Zone Selector is a little prog that can: Disable Macrovision, Autorun your DVD, disable Sigma Design's Station software from detecting that Dxr3 is the wrong board. For some reason I don't have to use Zone Selector on W2K. All I did was install the drivers and software from Sigma Designs and everything works. I do have to use Zone Selector if I want to use STATION in Millenium though. ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run

    Microsoft Win2k Giveaway (did anyone else win a copy?)

    I won too (in the third round) but I live in the UK (DAMMIT!!) so I'll get it some ______. (insert time period here) ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run
  20. Nice board but BX boards are still better. I see these problems with that board. 1. Only 64MB / 128MB sticks of SPD DIMM modules are allowed 2. If more than one socket is to be populated, it must be in order such that the first socket has the highest DIMM module (ie. DIMM1 > DIMM2 > DIMM3 > DIMM4); Also, total mem size of DIMM1 + DIMM3 must be > DIMM2 + DIMM4 3. The motherboard is also very picky and actually differentiates between Single-sided DIMMs and Double-sided DIMMS. There is a table in the manual that lists out predefined arrangements to follow for users with more than 1 DIMM module. Furthermore, there are times where you’ll have to literally forego some DIMM modules once they don’t fall within those defined configurations (eg. if you have 1 Single-Sided(SS) + 3 Double-Sided(DS) DIMM config, only 2 out of the 4 DIMM modules can be used??) 4. As a side note, it should be pointed out that the MTH only officially supports PC100 SDRAM. Hence, even by using overclocked FSBs above 133MHz, the board will limit the SDRAM speed to a max of 133MHz. 5. Almost all benchmarks indicate an outstanding performance from the overclocked Coppermine system. However, on reaching the memory benchmark in particular, all rosy impressions turn gravely sour. Look at the graph below for its anomalous and faltering memory performance. Here, we witness the weakness in using the Memory Translation Hub of the Camino, where approximately 20% degradation in performance is incurred (compared to a standard BX system running PC100 SDRAM) owing to added latency from the RAMBUS-SDRAM adaptation. Do note that my SDRAM onboard is overclocked to 109MHz, which would then make the performance discrepancy even more pronounced. 6. However, whilst I’d love to warrant it, the intrinsic problems of the Memory Translation Hub inherent in the I820 + lower attainable overclocked DDR settings, are starkly manifested in its degraded performance. Also, the peculiarities of its DIMM configurations are questionable, and will probably confuse & diminish users’ confidence over anything else. To sum it all up BUY A BX BOARD!!! Only buy this board if you want to impress your newbie computers friends who know nothing about computer. Do not buy this board if you want to impress you overclocking tweaker friends....they will ROFL till they are blue in the face. ------------------ C:\Dos C:\Dos\Run \Run\Dos\Run

    uhhh...Why would it??? Unless you haven't updated it with the latest patch of course.

    Sorry, another stupid UT/W2k/nvidia question :)

    Ummm...DO NOT use 32bit color in games on a TNT1. The TNT1 is terrible at 32bit color. Just run some quick benchmarks between 16b and 32b on Quake 2 and Quake3 and you'll see what I mean.
