Description of XP Powertoys In-Depth

sounds cool where do i get it? -
P3 800 and P4 1.5GHz have same performence?!!!?!?!?
Four and Twenty replied to Ali's topic in Hardware
it has been said that the 2 ghz + p4 chips is where we will see the performance increase over the compediors. If you have ever seen dual p3 1ghz and win xp you will absolutly **** ur pants when u see what 2 p4 2ghz are gonna do with win xp optimized for the new instruction set. *sits and imagines a dual p4 only to awaken from his trance sitting in front of his p3 500, someday the dual p4 will be mine, someday* -

Four and Twenty replied to Ali's topic in Hardware
hey brian there is one thing about the p4 that u are missing here. Intel can't make a better one without developing them. software has not yet been optimized for the p4's 20 step instruction set (or whatever u call it) anyway p4 does suck right now but it is not a mature technology it will be the sh1t very soon *smiles as he sits back and hits the bong and drools over the thought of a dual p4 2.5 ghz computer with a gig or 2 of ram and some scsi raid* -
true

ok just making sure that wasn't it i have had this b4 with windows 2000 not installing when a matrox card was in the box. put in a crap ati and it worked fine
-
are u refering to the sketch pause at the begining of the insatall? screen goes black and seems frozen. cause i get that also but if i just wait a minute it installs fine.

Dell Stops Offering Desktop Computers with Linux
Four and Twenty replied to Philipp's topic in Feedback
this kid was telling me the other day that linux is going to take over the desktop from windows and i was all baked so i was like whatever and i lauged a lot i guess he was wrong (like i didn't allready know that) lol -
quick time still sucks but that is cool that u figured that out (at least it is not as bad as real player)

can't be done with nt give up now

cant clean install RC2 2526?!?!
Four and Twenty replied to cipher's topic in Customization & Tweaking
yeah setup is a win32 app i beleive winnt.exe is the dos setup program all the times i have installed fromm dos with 2k/xp i ran winnt -
i installed object desktop first i was under the impression that that was needed but i could be wrong about that. this build of windowblinds with rc2 works really well
-
quick time sucks
-
note that the spacing didn't line up in the last post so if u are editing the inf it is kind of a bad example. but basically u need to replace and refresh rates u want with spaces. It is very important that the remaining refresh rates are lined up as they were when u started

Edit the .INF file of your TNT/TNT2/GeForce drivers (AFAIK it only works with the NVidia reference drivers (this includes all the misc Win2k drivers from NVidia themselves, Asus, AOpen, etc.), it might not work with any Creative or Diamond custom drivers). Look at the end of the file, all the different card types supported by that driver are listed there under the section "[strings]". What you need to know is the codename of the card, i.e. "NV4" for TNT1, "NV5" for TNT2, "NV10" for "GeForce" and so on. Assuming you have a TNT2 (="NV5"), search for a rather large block of lines looking like this (note the "NV5_Modes" string which indicates that these settings are for the NV5 cards): code: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 640 480 60 70 72 75 85 100 120 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 320 200 60 70 72 75 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 320 240 60 70 72 75 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 400 300 60 70 72 75 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 480 360 60 70 72 75 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 512 384 60 70 72 75 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 640 400 100 120 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 800 600 100 120 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 1024 768 100 120 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 1152 864 100 120 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 1280 960 85 100 120 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 1280 1024 60 70 72 75 85 100 120 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 1600 1200 60 70 72 75 85 100 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 1920 1080 60 70 72 75 85 100 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 1920 1200 60 70 72 75 85 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 1920 1440 60 70 72 75 0" HKR,, NV5_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "16 2048 1536 60 0" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This has already been edited by me. As you can see, you need to overwrite the undesired refresh rates ("60 70 72 75 85" in my case) with spaces, so the desired refresh rate at a specific screen resolution is the lowest refresh rate number in the according line. Here, I've deleted all rates below 100Hz for 640x400, 800x600, 1024x768 and 1152x864, and all rates below 85Hz for 1280x1024. Note: there are multiple blocks of lines for different color depths: 8, 16 and 32. Listed above are only the 16bpp modes. You should do this for all three color depths. Then reinstall the driver with the new .INF file. This should solve the OpenGL refresh rate problem. If you need higher refresh rates for DirectDraw/Direct3D games, run the DirectX Diagnostic Tool (DXDIAG.EXE) and switch to the last tab ("More Help"), click the "Override..." button and enter the desired refresh rate. I'm using 100 here, too. This should solve the DirectDraw/Direct3D refresh rate problem.

why not just mod the inf file in the det drivers and delete the frequencies that u don't want.
-
can u see the problem here ur gforce is an agp card it needs to be controlled by something if u don't have drivers installed for the CPU to AGP controller what is gonna make it work
-
i forgot about the 10.80 that is the only driver that works for me all around except for one thing. there is a little white square just below mid screen when i play need for speed. that is however the only issue with these drvers. i would use the 6.5 but those ones don't work with alpha blending at 32 bit for me and i use the desktop alot more than i play games.

after reinstalling up to twice a week during the win 2k and xp betas has made reinstalling a pretty common quick and easy task. It is all about not using cds. Make images of all your software that uses cds and put it all on a big hard disk and install from there. i can install office xp and photoshop and a handfull of other apps at the same time aswell as play mp3s and it all works fine. since i moved to hard disk only it takes me about 2 hours to install a new build all my programs and a handfull of reg tweaks and settings changes. It isn't that hard to get it down to a science. Besides to me it is worth it to have a nice clean system.

right now there are no good drivers for me and rc2 the 8.03 drivers lock when exiting opengl games and all the drivers 11 and up give me bsod about nv4disp.dll or something right now the drivers suck *** for tnt2 in xp

number of upgrades where i was happy with the outcome = 0 number of clean installs where i was happy with the outcome = countless upgrade if u want it's ur machine wtf don't i care
