flaming post huh? where's my zippo? wait I don't smoke Where's my Cyrix? wait. I don't own one Where's my dad's Packard bell? no, it doesn't burn. but it needs to be!

I screwed up and clicked on "do not open upon startup" when I was closing everything down for some benchmarking on my vidcard I just OCed... Rebooted, and it was gone...and I use that instead of the taskbar's tray. So I need it back. Anyone know how to get it back without reinstalling the stupid thing? (It'd take me 3 minutes to reinstall that part...but I'd rather not have to go hunting for my CD)

I have hte Startupd cpl that's how I turned it all off for the benchmark I tried the button and it didn't do anything the missing -b -l kept the bar from coming up

I'm building a second system..all I'm waiting for is my Celery I'll be running an 815 motherboard(no, not 815e , or ep-the original 815- an oem from gateway I got for 40 bucks0...and jsut 2 or 3 fans and a GOrb as long as it's under 120F, I'm not going to be worried. ------------------ My PC is warm. I think our fire wall is acting up.

At first I thought this was going to be another "Why is my system so dope" post...but luckily, cool meant temperature. Anyway.. you're running an AMD which will run hotter than an intel....cpu temp is around 100, on the lesser side of ti, and mobo is at about 80, lesser side of that That's pretty damned good to be honest. If you're going to go buy a HSF, I seriously recomend a GlobalWin FOP32, or 38 if you can handle noise, or the WKB series if you're willing to go with the dreaded Delta Black Label. Also, an alpha is a good choice too, be it the PAL6035 or the PEP66T the PEP66T will work fine since you have an Asus A7V--the abit and other similar mobos that have the cpu rotated 90degrees to the left have problems with this HSF. here's my system for comparison Asus CUSL2 PIII800eb@954 w/ PEP66T(&DBL) 256MB RAM PC133@159 2:2:2 5/7 Strong 8x4x32 Iomega CDRW, 6x40 Pioneer DVD 45GB Maxtor, 15 GB IBM >both UDMA100 7200 rpm nvidia GeForce2 GTS(OCed to 250/390) SB Live!

When @ at LAN party, I checked it, and I was running 80/81 in a room that was 78. (Fahrenheit)

My new videocard, a GTS, has replaced my old videocard, a 256 DDR. My old card was Creative Labs Annhilator Pro...and it came iwth a utility to enable sideband addressing. This new card is an oem, and I've yet to find the maker of it..so I don't have any utilities that I know of that will work Does anyone know of a registry tweak or something like that that will enable sideband addressing on a geforce GTS? ------------------ My PC is warm.

B2. The Introduction (Japanese version) A.D. 2101 The war began Outside Ship - An explosion occurs. Ship's Bridge Captain: "What happened!?" Mechanic: "Someone detonated bombs all around us!" Close-Up of Excited Communications Officer Operator: "Captain! Incoming transmission!" Captain: "What!?" Ship's Bridge Operator: "Image coming through on the main monitor." (CATS appears) Captain: "You... you are...!!" Close up of CATS CATS: "You appear to be preoccupied, gentlemen." (sarcasm) CATS: "Thanks to the cooperation of the UN forces, we've taken over all of your bases." CATS: "Your ship too shall soon be destroyed." Close up of captain & CATS Captain: "Im.. Impossible!" CATS: "We thank you for your cooperation." (more sarcasm) CATS: "Enjoy the remaining moments of your lives...." Ship's Bridge CATS: "Hahahahaha ...." Close up of Forlorn Captain Operator: "Captain!?" Ship's Bridge (ZIGs on monitors) Captain: "Launch all ZIG fighters!" Shows a ZIG pilot powering up Captain: "We leave it up to them..." Shows a ZIG moving into launch position Captain: "Give us hope for our future..." ZIGs on monitors, Bridge Explodes Captain: "We're counting on you, ZIG!!" The ship explodes. A lone ZIG zooms into view! [translated by WooJin Lee and two sheepishly anonymous persons.] ----- B3. The Plot as the Introduction Suggests Taking into account the three organizations mentioned in the actual Japanese translation, we're to believe three major powers control the spaceways in the year 2101. They are the United Nations, CATS, and a third organization - the one the hapless souls aboard that poor red ship belong to. Japanese animation and manga have been full of condescending references to the west ever since the end of World War 2, which leads me to believe that the third, unnamed organization is Japan. (Don't hold me to that) So you've got the UN (the west), Japan/Asia, and CATS (an alien race). So, in the year 2101 CATS teamed up with the UN and in a surprise move took over or destroyed ALL of Japan's planetary bases. For some wacky reason, the lone ship in the intro is the focus of the CATS leader's personal attention. The ship falls into CATS' boobytrap just as all the rest did, but a lone ZIG fighter manages to launch before the ship explodes. You are the pilot of this lone ZIG. You are to travel to the bases CATS took over and drive their forces away. It is up to you to wipe this menace from the galaxy, hopefully showing the UN the folly of their ways in the meantime. Can a solitary ZIG defeat this alien menace and reunite east and west in peace? "Move 'ZIG'! For great justice!"

I might be wrong, but doesn't it require DX 7 or around there? NT4 doesn't have anything more than DX 3 or 4(not sure) does Q3A run in NT?

Score! Gotta get one! http://www.cafepress.com/tlmom http://www.cafepress.com/tlmom2 get the mp3 here http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/190/the_laziest_men_on_mars.html ------------------ My PC is warm. I think our fire wall is acting up.

Leave it on whenever possible. You may decide to use sleep modes...but most of us just turn the monitor off and walk away. It's more a problem of sound than it is of the computer...my parents tell me to turn it off so they don't have to hear it...

The Coolbits oc utility registry hack that works for the GeForce series....does anyone know if it works for the TNT2? Parents have a TNT2 Pro...it could use some OCing to get them into the 60s in UT... ------------------ My PC is warm. I think our fire wall is acting up.

Success I've taken them from 143/166 to 160/185 ------------------ My PC is warm. I think our fire wall is acting up.

IN A.D 2101 WAR WAS BEGINNING Captain: What happen? Mechanic: Somebody set up us the bomb. Operator: We get signal. Captain: What! Operator: Main screen turn on. Captain: It's You!! Cats: How are you gentlemen!! Cats: All your base are belong to us. Cats: You are on the way to destruction. Captain: What you say!! Cats: You have no chance to survive make your time. Cats: HA HA HA HA! Cats: Take off every "zig." Cats: You know what you doing. Cats: Move "zig." Cats: For great justice. ------------------ My PC is warm. I think our fire wall is acting up.

I was going to edit it to say nevermind.... but I thought I'd just answer my question in case it can help anyone else. in the Microsoft Office link in the Startup menu, click properties. in the target, after the "D:\Microsoft Suites\Office 2000\Office\OSA9.EXE" add a -b -l to the end of the target, making it, like this "D:\Microsoft Suites\Office 2000\Office\OSA9.EXE" -b -l All Your Base Are Belong To Us ------------------ My PC is warm. I think our fire wall is acting up.

I paid 150 for it(shipped) I got it off of ebay, but the package said merkur inc...so I think it's a company selling them I can give you the email address of the guy I bought it from, maybe he can help you find more. kittens@home.com (And don't spam the guy!)

Hey, I like this thing! I went from 200MHz core clock, 333 MHz DDR RAM clock stock, to 250MHz core and 390 MHZ DDR RAM clock OCed the GeForce2 Pro is 200/400mhz. The GeForce2 Ultra is 250/460. Not bad for an as-of-yet-nameless OEM board, huh? For the record, there is no change in video cooling...though I am thinking about putting on a BlOrb and a some ramsinks All Your Base Are Belong To Us ------------------ My PC is warm.

They Set Up Us The Bomb I got mine here when it was posted at hardocp http://www.dayvid.net/allyourbase.swf I've been playing it for the past hour or so and dancing

I checked for one first thing, but it doesn't show one not sure if that's because of my monitor or not...it might be displaying it before my monitor is warmed up....but that wasn't the case on my 256...I saw it say Creative everytime I did a warm boot

yep. the processor it the thing holding it back I just ran a series of benchmarks in Quake3... my highest FPS in Q3A was 139, at 640x480. It's either my CPU or card holding me back there...didn't get opportunity to check it with my old 256. Although your setting isn't one I used(1024x768 and 1280x1024, I did), I'd have averaged about 80 FPS at that setting (I have a PIII 800eb @ 954, 256 133, 2k, 159mhz fsb. udma 100 7200, CUSL2)

No, I just install SP2(beta) and the SP1 is taken care of.

to me, the pictures are a lot clearer, and the thing is just easier on my eyes in general. My old monitor had a problem of glare, and this monitor fixed that problem This is a fullfledged CRT monitor, it's not an LCD display.... Also, these monitors seem brighter in general..

if it was, there'd be people complaining or whinging aobut it not working, and others saying it works fine so far, the only SP2 we have are betas

I had originally intended to put an ATI Xpression PC2TV as a secondary card in one of my 2K boxes for the TV-out. However, I found out that I cannot do this due to something about BIOS initialization. So, now I'm wondering if anyone here knows of a PCI or ISA videocard that works fine as a Secondary card that has TV-out(Composite and/or Svideo). Not a V3 or anything relatively new...I'm looking for something I could reasonably expect to see under 30 bucks. ------------------ My PC is warm. I think our fire wall is acting up.

That'd work great! Do you happen to know the model of the card?

I bought a new GTS, and intended on putting my current 256 in my K6-2 system(K6-2 450, and a Gigabyte GA 5AX (ALI chipset)). It doesn't work in there it works perfectly in the other 3 computers I've owned and tried it in(I'm running on it right now), but this thing just won't work. I tried other vid cards, they work. power supplies, no good changing cards aroung, no good any ideas? And, since I don't need this card(AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY), anyone want to trade it for a V3 3500? ------------------ My PC is warm. I think our fire wall is acting up.
