Thanks guys. The SW version i think is 4.0 and i have got that off the net. My joystick is the older version apparantly, with the green light. Anyway the effects still dont work with xp so its really annoying. Do you have the same version as me chizow? I am sure i have the latest version i can...

Just upgraded to XP home and guess what? No forcefeedback effects in il2 Forgotten Battles or anything else for that matter. The joystick works fine and i have tension in the game but no effects, like firing the guns etc etc. I have had some problems testing it in the joystick properties. The...

Ok so i dont have a motherboard capable of it. But i have been having a dicussion and i want to make sure i have my facts right. So what does it mean in terms of graphics speed? What does it mean for transfer speeds between the gpu, cpu and ram? and of course anything else i have missed...

Thanks again for the replies. Looks like i will have to wait until next year and get an uber rig when doom 3 comes out. "whats your UT2K3 frame rate? " Havent played it yet and due to living abroad (in gibraltar) i have no internet access so i am not likely to soon. They have just got...

Thanks for getting back. I will peruse those articles. I think i might have read one before. Maybe i will upgrade. I think you are right my multiplier is looked on the cpu and i have no option to change the fsb. Its just i am off travelling next year for six months and any upgrade would...

I know this is another one of those boring complaints posts. But this is soooo low. Does it sound right to people. I am not on the pc right now and my home pc is not online so i cant check on the 3dmark website. I have an athlon 1Ghz Athlon, with 512 meg ram running win 98, a gainward gs 4400...

How much does it matter though. I have an athlon 1Ghz Athlon, with 512 meg ram running win 98, a gainward gs 4400. Using 3dmark 2001se i only get around 7500. I get a bit more if i overclock the card. I was worried it was a bit low but after checking on some other forums i was told my cpu was...

Thanks guys for the replies. You have all put points that are in my conumdrum. Firstly i do not want to upgrade because of just the 3d mark score. Its how games play. all play ok at the moment but for how mcuh longer? So many other questions if i do decide to upgrade. Do i buy a xp now or...

Thanks tenoc. Yeah i was sure that would be an issue. I cant overclock easily as it would mean breaking and setting new multiplier manually on cpu. I cant increase the fsb in the bios. So no overclock for me unfortuantly. I might upgrade soon. any other thoughts ta Rossco

Hi guys. Sorry to post such a similar topic. But i am a bit confused. I am running a 1Ghz AMD 512 Meg Ram Gainward GS GF4 4400 o/c to 294/350 win98se rivatuner 3dmark2001se So anyway i thought this was a bit low. I have been all over the madonion forums and tried loads of things, which took...

Someone must know. I have been looking but it doesnt seem to be anywhere!

Come one someone must know Pretty please.

Thanks for the informative reply. I know i feel disgusted, cheapened in fact. But now i have got this far, i feel i should finish the job or my cpu will have been deflowered for nothing, So do you know the answer??

Hi there, I have just unlocked my cpu. I have a 1GHz AMD Athlon, AK12 A v3.0 mobo, 512 meg ram. IT all went well. I just dont see where the option to change the multiplier is. so 1) will i need to flash my bios to have the option? 2)change any mobo settings in order to see the option...

There is no option to change my fsb on my current bios. Award Software version 6.00PG. I have one more thing to check. if that doesnt work i will flash the bios. Then i have to think about unclocking the cpu. I wonder how easy that will be? i have never tried it before.
