Hipshot

I have the strangest of problems, well, it's strange cause I have never seen it before =) Every time I stick something into my usb, I need to install it - again - even though it has been installed before, several times I should add. For example, I several times a day plug in the 360-controller into the comp (for various reasons I can't have it in all the time), also the wacom board, some times a mem-stick and so on. All these things need to be installed, you now the process, "search on the net" or "manually" and so forth. The process for the wacom board is insanely tiering, since it has so many driver parts it needs... Is there a setting that controls this? It's XP Pro, latest updates on a "new" dual core 1.6. I don't have the problem at home and have never seen it before. Thanks in advance.

Hello. (might be wrong section, sorry if) This is a "Xp Home" thread. Sometimes I help my neighbour with her computer. This time, it was kinda hard. Norton internet Security 2004, broke (don't know why), so it needed to be reinstalled, the problem is now, that I can't uninstall it, because when I try, it says that I need administrator rights, I have that, so what's the problem. The computer is without any protection right now, because I can't reinstall it because I can't remove the old one. Odd.

Yes, I can delete them, but I don't want them to be created by the app by default. I hate them, and I don't need any FP exts. I still like FP 2003 though Thanks in advance.

Quote: The lan bandwidth + the hard drive bandwidth + everything else on the PCI son't be close to full, even when doing a highres video capture on a pci card, you still have plenty of room. nothing is fast enough to tax it. If a pci card didnt do bus mastering right and was making your cpu wait alot, then in theory it could slow it down. In practice thugh, it should not. Still I dont know why the 10Mbit nic dont slows the computer, when the 100 does...

Ok, but Im not talking firewall here, just plain old LAN with some friends and no security Also im pretty sure I've seen speeds faster than 8 on my NIC, cause 100Mbit would be 12.5 MB as a peak, when I was on Dreamhack (Major LAN (5000 people) in sweden) I had numbers on like 10-11MB/s. You must agree that there is a sagnifient slowdown when somebody copies from you, right? And I suppose this is because all HDDs, system and then the NIC on top of this is using the PCI bus, the PCI bus is capable of 33mhz, 133MB/s (I think) but since a normal (P)ATA drive today only can read/write from 24-55MB/s the NIC would use a bit from that, then the system and so on, all this would slow down the system pretty much, and this is also why when using a 10Mbit NIC the system isnt getting slow, cause they peak at ~1MB/s, that is very slow. This is just what I think, since I havent got my KT600 or my Western Digital Raptor, I cant test it, and maybe I have wrong Im no expert, but I build alot of computers and have a good general knowledge so the ide cant be totaly crazy

I got a 5900 to, and for that price I'm amazed, it rocks the house. Must say that the FX5700 Ultra, 5900 series, and the 5950 really brings Nvidia back, since the 5700 U is faster than a 96Pro/XT and a 5900 is better then a 9700Np/Pro in many fields. Of course the ATI cards might perform better with DX9 and AA and AF, but thats just because NV didnt work to well with MS under the development of the FX series, thats why the FX5800 sucked so much. I belive that the NV40+ series will be better then any radeon, even the new R420 in every aspect, but you never know, maybe nvidia is suppose to be second in the super-top from now...

Hmm, as everybody knows, the IDE-bus goes through the PCI subsystem, but the SATA on the KT600 is native and goes direct to the southchipset. Normaly when you are on a LAN and your friend copies a very large file from you, the system is getting slow, cause, I think the network card, which also goes though the PCI slows the HDD, as they are limited to the same bandwidth. But in the same situation, I would use a SATA drive, connected to the native SATA on the KT600 board, I suppose I wouldent get the same slowdown? True or False? Hope you understood what I tried to say. Im not very good at english.

When I used the 40xx version I had a reg file that unlocked the drivers so that I could overclock through them. But now I dont think that file will work, anyone know how I can do? Just picked up a FX59 and that card seriously rocks my house, but I want to test the limits a little. Thanks in advance

Hmm, that is a word I can use, never thought about it actually... looks good to

hmm... it would look strange, if I wrote just textures and then photoreal... I think I'll write non-photoreal

Hmm, if I make a texture myself, what is that called then? I mean, if I shoot a picture with my digiacam, and make a texture from it, then it can be called a photorealistic texture, but what should the one I make with a brush in photoshop be called? Artificial?

Sorry, but this might be a stupid question, but where can I download the program, or is it included in xp pro already?

ah, hmm, ok. But I dont use that hehe Can I just switch the keys, so that select last file will be on f2 and rename on space?

when you select a folder or file in windows, and presses the F2 button, then you can change the name, but I want to use the SPACEbar to do that, hwo can I change, and would there be any problems or conflics if I change? (When I select a file and presses SPACE nothing happens, so I thought I might just remap the key to the same as F2, just to make it easier for me)

Where might I find that? I got one for windows XP, or are they the same?
