Well, we had these LAN-parties and everything worked out well until we decided to play Battlefield 1942 and other games. All my friends have Win XP Pros in english or Home in english and I'm the only one who has Home in finnish...I was able to download from their computers via the net but when...

What do you think of them? I think that they are great games in their "species" but with no realism at all and that is what is f*****g in the game...imagine, how could only one man destroy four tanks and kill dozends of axies in the front line and make his way through Berlin all by himself...

Just curious. How many pci-slots that card of yours covers so that they are unusable? By the pictures I guess 2....am I wrong? If it takes two, then it sucks. I need atleast 4 pci's and my mobo (ASUS A7V266-EX) has only 5 pci-slots.....maybe i'll go with Radeon 9700Pro when Ati's new cards come...

go to www.tweaktown.com and look for XP tweak guides (2), they include all kinds of neat things how to boost your system...

Ok, I just bought memory heatsinks for my card and have a little problem attaching them. Should I use superglue, "thermal glue" or thermal adhesive?

mulah=??? I'm from Finland (you know, the land of Santa Claus, sauna and Nokia...) and my english is not perfect :D

Otherwise it would be great, but whatabout if I get my comp. so messed up and have to take it to the firm where I bought it for fixing? It could be unwise to give them pirate XP Pro... On the otherhand I could just say: Just fix the f*****g computer! I'll deal with windows myself later :)

No I really haven't tried that yet....have to try, any other solutions?

There are always lower prices around the corner =) do your decisions now and don't look back...I bought my xp1800+ for almost 200? last summer and if I had waited 3 weeks the price would have been under 150? =( bad luck but things happen...you just have to take a ride and see what happens :)

Sorry. Mixed up format and defragment =)

Use the XPs own format...easy and takes about 25mins and your win is up again =)

Ok. More help needed here...it still doesn't work...I put up a net between my 4 own computers with xp home (fin), xp pro (eng) and 2x98 (eng). I can move files from comp. to another but when I set up a server in Battlefield 1942 with that Pro comp, I can join it with the 98s but not with that...

So am I...I can't figure what could be wrong, but what I've heard, the different language can be the problem...it isn't the cards 'cos almost half of us have the same card =).... An example: Me: XP Home Finnish I was able to dl files but couldn't join in their games because they did...

Well, I have 256 DDR memory, xp1800+ and R8500 card and the gane runs smoothly in 800x600 32bits, and if playing singleplayer I can use the 1024x768 with all the goodies and it works great... I think that updating your memory isn't necessary, 256 should do the job untill you get your new...

Well, I've had my copy of Home Edition about 6 months now and it has worked pretty well (not counting the innumerable updates and fixes =)) Me and my friends have these regular "computer-parties", gathering in a same place and putting all the comps. in the same hub for playing and...
