Thanks for your helpful reply birdpup. I will start on these tests tomorrow.

Hi all, In recent weeks my computer has started freezing, seemingly randomly, about once every couple of days or so. After a reboot CHKDSK would run, and sometimes clear up a few files. However, now everytime I restart normally (no system crash or freeze) CHKDSK always checks one partition...

Okay, thanks for posting.

Thanks for the replies. Just to clarify, there's nothing wrong with the actual visual quality of static images; it's just how fast the screen is being updated. Are there any things you'd recommend I try, such as certain BIOS settings for instance? I've been looking at the advanced timing...

If you're referring to why I'm thinking of installing another card, I can't really explain it any better than I did in that initial post to which I linked. It's quite hard to describe to somebody if they don't experience it themselves, but it's a bit like using Windows in Safe Mode, when 2D...

Hi As my 6800GT Golden Sample is so poor for 2D work (discussed at http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=47503 - I'm 'Danger Mouse') I am considering installing a cheap PCI graphics card into my computer solely for 2D use (please see signature for current specs). I only use one...

Have you looked under Edit > Preferences > File Handling > Maximize PSD File Compatibility? If that is already set as it should be (Always or Ask) try saving a Photoshop PDF version. Depending on the version your friend is using they may be able to open that.

Hi Nocturnal Who is your host? Does your hosting package use cPanel or what?

Thanks very much for taking the time to answer those queries Navid. Much appreciated.

Thanks skyking, but I'd need access to both drives at the same time for backing up.

I'd like to set up two WinXP environments; one clean and stable for work and one which I can update with the latest drivers etc. for gaming. Have searched this forum for info on this topic and have found quite a bit of useful info which has saved me asking some questions I otherwise would...

I'm sure I've recently read that the K8T had some issues, but that the K8N with the nForce3 is fine. Will try and find where it was and post the url(s). EDIT: Got it: http://forums.firingsquad.com/...e&message.id=12895 See Trogdor's (Jarred Walton @ Anandtech) comments. However...
