    ATI 3.8 drivers and lockups

    Ever since I installed the 3.8 drivers my machine does something really weird, only after it comes out of a screen saver. This little box appears in the upper left hand corner, looks just like a TV tuner picture thats scrammbles, then the monitor kicks off, and it hard locks. Anyone else have this? my specs are here: http://home.hawaii.rr.com/sapiens74

    ATI 3.8 drivers and lockups

    Been there, done that Seems the VPU thing is the devil at least for me All seems to be well, for now GOt this other wierd problem though with RTCW Enemy Territory Anytime I reboot my machine, the game comes up in safe mode with all the setting lowered. The game itself never locks, and If I play it over and over without rebooting it works fine Does this with 3.7-3.9 Anyone else have the issue?

    Computer Case Recommendation

    ANy of the Antec series, here's mine here http://home.hawaii.rr.com/sapiens74 Case looks nice and is tough like a tank. You can buy them pretty cheap too, plus ANTEC makes great PS
  14. Some can and some can't You have a compatibility tool built in that lets you run some programs in WIn95,98,NT like shells. Your best bet is to try a test machine and see if the programs work

    ATI 3.8 drivers and lockups

    Did those things in reverse order No lockups since the VPU thing turned off. I thought it was a service, but I guess not.

    advice on raid/storage setup?

    Quote: Well, for stability, RAID 0 is worhtless. I'm sure you know that if one drive fails, you lose everything on both drives. For stability, you might be better off with RAID 1 on the two of the drives. That way you'll get some redundancy if one drive fails. You could use this for Windows and your apps. Your games and other not so critical files could be put onto a RAID 0 array made of the other pair of drives. I guess it will really depend on how much disk space you need for each. A disk failure in raid is no different then you primary disk failing. Either way you lose data, unless of course you ALWAYS BACKUP Then you can get perfomance and not worry about losing data No way I would run my Windows and games on anything else then my dual raptors

    advice on raid/storage setup?

    [/color] ON my setup I have my Windows and all programs installed on the raid drive. ON my backup drive I have all downloads, drivers, and music. Best performance is running everything off your raid setup

    IP Address Not release after expiration

    THis may be caused by having the exact amount of IP addresses as your computers So for instance you have IPs of 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.10 and you have ten machines then when an IP is released by a machine, and its IP goes back into the pool, it asks for another which happens to be the same one it released, thus getting back the same IP If the lease times are set for example a 24 hour period each machine is probably on a different schedule, so no 2 machines release at the same time.

    proof that there are stoners working at M$

    I agree they should update some of thier older icons. I don't like seeing them on my LCD with cleartype enabled.

    VB.NET Return Active Directory UserNames

    I misunderstood the questions. I thought you were trying to query AD for specific users. With Server 2003 you can use DSGET command But since you are talking programming, thats not my thing
