Thus is AMD's achilles heel. No ONE chipset that when all else fail, that one still stands.

Loose cannon, and religious zealots. We see it all at Tom's

HE hit it on the head. AMD fans are like Apples. Getting almost cult like. Just like the linux community. If everyone joined thier cause then they would find something else to be affiliated with

its the VIa chipset you are using the south bridge that has known issues with SBLIVE. Try the PCI latency patch, or trying it in another PCI slot

I have owned the Santa Cruz, GTXP,LIVE and Audigy. Audigy best sounding card hands down

Lol. I got my first AMD when I bought a K6-233. Great CPU for cheap. THen after a few Pentium 2's and 3's I jumped ship........ to later drown in a sea of VIA.

You can also manually delete all Direct 3d files.

Thats a tough one. I beta tested this and its a ***** to remove. You can use the repair function on the 2000 CD, or you can use the GTA3 fix which might overwrite the newer files.

I meant Norton retail compared with other AV that are pretty cheap nowadays

Thats a good choice. Either way you go INtel has a variety of options

I owned 6 Via based systems I must like pain. I usually do my best work after a couple pints of my favorite brew, Guiness, but sometimes I don't Had to reinstall an OS once 4 times in a row cause I was hammered and kept making the same mistake. Fortunately my bro was too hammered to notice and was wowed by my technical prowess.

IM on chapter 3 and the game is really good

Is money is no object then RDRAM. If money is, then A good DDR board, and if you can find a 1.6A or 1.8A they both are known to overclock to 2.4GHZ

I used this on my Desktop with Windows 2000, and XP with no problems. I use it on my laptop now with no problems as well. Try compatibility mode? Also what chipset do you have? VIA, INTEL? If you have VIa you might want to try thier USB filter patch

Norton AV 2002. Easiest to use, tho cost a little more then others.

Sweet. I had better luck with Samsung hitting the 150 FSB mark. So My 2.26 GHZ @ 2.55GHZ w/Samsung 40NS PC800 does better in performance then my 2.26GHZ @ 2.4GHZ, with Kingston.

I think these things would liven up the Boards here: 1. International Babe of the Week 2. Linux Community Lie of the week 3. Beer of the Week O yeah, *** of the week. Pick the poster full of the most ****. You know I had to pick something I have a good chance of winnning.

Clutch and Admiral LSD said it best. When you manage you own Domain, in a very large enterprise situation you have a wealth of information and resources available to you. Microsoft sends out bulletins 1 months or more before an exploit is actually taken advantage of. We never got hit with anything. We had our servers patched the day the Security bulletin came out. Hackers have compromised every OS, and If you put 50 Million Linux boxes up you would have more Linux exploits as well. Like clutch says, Windows servers are so easy to manage, companies let poeple who are not qualified run thier Networks. We ran 1 PDC and 3 BDC's in Korea, mind you this was a DOD network with restictions, and the first thing we did was uninstall IIS. There is half the battle right there. A lot of idiots leave it on there even though they aren't using it. Microsoft has gone out of thier way to make a balance of easy to use and secure servers. Funny how secure they are when managed properly. And on top of that to use that as an excuse to steal software is just plain Bullshit. If you don't ****ing like MS products then don't use them. Why in the hell would you ***** about the cost then say the software is a POS only to steal the damn thing?

unplug the camera install software, then reboot and plug it in

Unlike Diablo you actually fight No whack it until its dead

We spent millions for a Site license for Windows 2000 PRo and Office 2000 Pro for everyone. Microsoft sent a team out to help us plan our Network, so they were a great help. I spend 300 or more a month on average for parts. I spend 150 once a year for a new OS, And I was lucky enough to best test Office XP so that saved me some money. Bottom line, pirates are thieves. **** cost money to develop. Poeple like you and me have jobs that rely on that money. If you dont like what something costs, then dont use it

add Neverwinter nights to the list

People blame the problems in the world on religion, terrorism, racism, plague, famine, locists or whatever..... bottom line is greed. "The LOVE of money is the root of all evil" ANd money brings power. What it is really all about. But blaming this on Corporate America is a bit unfair. Greed starts at the bottom, and goes all the way up Rich folks just have more to be greedy with.

Break out some artic silver.

Disable the nvidia driver help service after you install the drivers.
