If it makes you feel any better, Im having the exact same problem. I have an athlon 64 w/ BFG 6800GT and performance in CS:Source is not upto par. Even if I run it at 640x480 resolution Im not able to get a constant fps. Im begining to think its the card, so I have ordered a x800 XT. Lets see...

getting a new setup is not going to be worth it.. cos I will have to invest in new Case and power supply, not to mention new Hard drives.

Hmm good idea.. I gotta take a look at that..

yeah Im sure I can get it running on a KT133a. The AOpen AK73 Pro supports athlon XP Proc. I already have 768MB 133Mhz SDRAM. Decisions... Decisions. Maybe I should go the cheaper route and buy a new computer when doom3/Halflife2 ships. Is the performance going to be that dismal?

I dont get it... how does it work?

I know this is a stupid comparison to make. But hear my dilemma : I own an Athlon XP1700, 768 Megs of 133 SDRAM, Geforce 4 ti200. As far as building a computer.. here are my options. 1. Buy a VIA KT133a Chipset Mobo for 35-40$. 2. Buy an Nforce2 Chipset w/ 1GB DDR RAM for 220$. Now the big...

Im looking for this case.. has anyone perhaps seen it. It used to be sold for nec powermate 8100 line. Im wondering if its possible to buy just the case alone. http://static.epinions.com/images/newworld/4862/I14743-tech.jpg THX

anything else guys?

I need a card that is extremely stable (has good drivers) to capture video. It doesnt have to be digital just an plain NTSC in. Any recommendations. Something not too expensive either :) Thanks

dont want to keep beating the dead horse.. but any other ideas guys.. Im gonna give it 2 days before I format and install new os ... sigh :(

I have the a-trend harmony which is also a yamaha ymf-744 card. I havent installed sp2 yet but I get digital output out of spdif port. No DD or DTS.

I found a program- www.registrytool.com that restores all entries except hardware.. it costs 150$.. Anyone know any alternatives?

Ok.. here is the background info. What Im doing right now is not for my machine but for my professor. He has a lot of programs installed and in each of these programs he has special setting that are stored in the registry. For example he has a program call matlab and that prog has certain test...

can anyone tell me if this will work. 1. I make an image of the hard drive and the restore on destination HD. 2. I reinstall win2k on the destination hd over the winnt folder 3. I back the the registry from the source computer and restore it on the destination computer. Will this restore all my...

any ideas on how to run sysprep? I tried just executing it and it says that changes will be made and then the computer will be shutdown. However it still fails to boot.. it hangs up during the 'starting win2k' part. ( ie the first load up screen' Also I dont know what drivers to specify.. Im not...
