    Best Steps to Upgrading Video Driver

    Hey all, I get mixed answers on my researching of this subject. I have a X800 GTO video card and would like to see if updating a newer ATI driver will help in playing Neverwinter Nights 1 (for some weird reason NWN1 and X800 architecture do not play well together; this is well documented)...

    Neverwinter Nights 2!!!

    Deuce Traveler, your post comes at a most opportune time for me because I have been seriously considering buying this game, but I have a few questions for you: 1. What video card do you have? I have an X800 GTO 256 mb DDR3 but only with 12 pixel pipelines and since this is such a graphics...

    I bought my daughter a new laptop and it has Vista Home Premium (and it is running fine with Office 2003). Is anyone utilizing the 32 bit Home Premium and if so what anti-virus program are you using besides Norton and McAfee? Thanks!

    I didn't even know this! I'll have to pay closer attention when Spongebob comes on again. ;)

    Console Sales: May

    I am surprised that they are still selling Game Boy Advance in high volume. Isn't is hard to even find new games for this handheld?

    A Question on SLi Motherboards

    Please excuse this totally noob question, but I am unfamiliar with SLi and I was wondering if a SLi motherboard needs two vid cards to work properly or do they do fine with just one installed? (I told ya it was "noob"! :cool: )

    Recommend five (and only five) fantasy books

    Lyonesse: Suldren's Garden - Jack Vance (superb high fantasy; Vance is a true wordsmith)) Sweet Silver Blues - Glenn Cook (Film Noir meets Fantasy) Nine Princes in Amber - Roger Zelazny (his voice is greatly missed) Something Wicked This Way Comes - Ray Bradbury (another true wordsmith)...

    Burning MP3 Lists from WMP: What Am I Missing?

    Yes, I am talking about playlists. These are downloaded from the internet and are currently stored in Windows Media Player library. I've attempted to point Nero to the MP3 files but I can't find them.

    Burning MP3 Lists from WMP: What Am I Missing?

    Before I continue I want you to know that I did attempt to research my issue but I couldn't find what I was looking for and I haven't really burned that much other than Data CDs. My son has a list of MP3s saved under Windows Media Player. The thing is when I bring up the lists and go to...

    Fortune Magazine: How Nintendo is beating Sony and Microsoft

    I remember when Nintendo (and I am not a fanboy by a long shot) first revealed the Wii and how the naa sayers replete with gaming Wisdom 1) said it couldn't compete against the XBox 360 and especially the PS3 because 2) that the Wii was for "kids" while the other two were for "adults and teens"...

    [June] What are you playing

    Divine Divinity is actually pretty decent and the areas are HUGE. There are a lot of neat ideas like the teleportation offerings in this RPG and though it often is a hack & slash fest it is much more as well. I also like the idea how you can customize your character as well as freely put your...

    [June] What are you playing

    After 4 years I reinstalled Divine Divinity and I am enjoying it. The graphics are okay but I find the gameplay better than the Dungeon Siege offerings and the plot and numerous quests are pretty decent. The voice acting is definitely better than many of the newer offerings that have come our...

    Anyone Running Comodo Firewall?

    Four versions of Sunbelt Kerio Personal Firewall and contiunous BSODs due to the ever nightmarish fwdvr.sys driver. A fifth version is out and I have been reading of people using it and getting BSODs from, you guessed it, fwdrv.exe driver. So how is Comodo and is it hard to configure?

    Modem Gone Crazy: Dying or Something Else?

    Wonky is right. Today I didn't have one issue. Weird. I am going to keep an eye on it and see if it happens again. I think you are right about checking the AC adapter.

    Modem Gone Crazy: Dying or Something Else?

    In the past few weeks I have noticed that on occasion my internet surfing would suddenly stop or pages wouldn't load. When I looked over at my cable modem I noticed it shut down and then the lights would come back on and I could continue. However, today it has consistently shut down and come...

    OK, I ignored my own advice and decided to be stupid...

    BOZ, Kaspersky has a free online scanner and it is very good at finding pesky items. I think it cleans as well. TrendMicro has a indepth - free - online virus/malware/adaware scan as well and I know they clean; they also have a free CW Shredder that I strongly recommend running as well. If...

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo to Publish Howard, Moorcock, Gygax and (?)

    Okay, now I am embarrassed! :heh: I love jack Vance; I have read almost everything he has in print except the last five years. I never knew Nifft was an approved Vance pastiche though I remember reading it and I never saw the tongue-in-cheek style in Nifft the Lean. And, Erik, "pastiche"...
