    COD:Advanced Warfare................

    COD Ghosts was a horrible PC port (even for a COD game) -- the stuttering/ lag etc...never got fixed. Total rip-off. Can anyone playing advanced warfare confirm for me that this years iteration does not suffer from these issues?...or is it another badly done port? I did see TB's youtube...

    Building old computer for 1990s games

    I keep a Win98 box -- all on vintage hardware. CPU is an AMD 64 2200+ something or other. Mobo was based on a Via K8t800 chipset. Using the fastest (and last) AGP card supported under Win 98 ---> the ATI x850 xt. using SB Live sound card with a gameport. Using a GDM FW 900 --- all...

    Man, Call of Duty Ghosts really sucks

    I gave the game a try running it on a pair of sli'd titans and a 2600k@ 4400 with 8 gigs of ram --- the game ran like total crap with frequent lag, stutters etc... regardless of drivers, game settings --- single card or SLI --- worthless garbage. What little I did get to experience of the actual...

    TiTAN and DSR? (under Windows Vista)

    never had any problems with Win Vista/64 -- not worthwhile for me to upgrade to 7 and don't like what I heard about 8.1. will probably go for Win 10 next year. If DSR is unsupported in Win Vista, not a big loss.

    TiTAN and DSR? (under Windows Vista)

    The issue for me is that I don't think DSR is supported under Windows Vista --- I think that's why I don't have DSR enabled with my Titans?....but I can't find any documentation about this from Nvidia.

    TiTAN and DSR? (under Windows Vista)

    Just to let folks here know---> According to some posters over at the nvidia forums it seems that DSR is not supported under Vista (please don't start ranting about using Vista, I know already) --- but I didn't see Vista mentioned as a limiting factor with respect to DSR in the release notes...

    TiTAN and DSR? (under Windows Vista)

    did both as suggested above --- nothing worked, must have been a bad driver install. will reinstalll and see how that goes. Thanks for the tips.

    TiTAN and DSR? (under Windows Vista)

    I thought the most recent driver (344.48) rolled out DSR support for cards below the latest 9xx series. Yet, after installing the driver I don't see any options for DSR in either the NV control panel (general or program specific settings) or Gforce experience (where you supppsedly may have the...

    Dumb things that PC games should not do by 2013

    absolutely agree -----> QTE's are horrible --- the other thing is pathetic scripting (mostly seen with COD and a few other FPS's) wherein passing an invisible barrier causes enemies to either stop spawning or continue to spawn until the next line is crossed.

    Backup software for Windows 98?

    Yes, I have been following that project with interest. However, at the end of the day I thought it would just be easier to build a legacy box as I had so many old parts available including an ATI 850XT PE AGP card --kind of hard to find (with an AGP interface). Fastest video card supported...

    Backup software for Windows 98?

    Ok, thanks...I'll give it a go - and I do see that it supports FAT32, so maybe it will work.

    Backup software for Windows 98?

    Thanks for the linkage -- however, unless I missed something it doesn't appear to support Win 98.

    Backup software for Windows 98?

    Thanks lxskllr...I was unfamiliar with Clonezilla. One question though-----> it seems that using Clonezilla you cannot restore an image to a smaller disc (known limitation), however, what I am not clear on is can I "image" the primary disc (40 gb, with ~ 7 gigs of data) to a smaller disc...
