    Networking Support thread for the unemployed: Spring 2014

    This is a huge shot in the dark but I may as well try. I'm going to be graduating next year with a BS in biomedical engineering with an emphasis biochemical engineering from ASU. I'm looking to gain industry experience beginning this summer. If there are any opportunities for me to pursue in AZ...

    Vista SP1 Final - Available to the Public Now ?

    My boot time actually increased after installing SP1. I haven't experienced any performance increase (that I can tell) or observed any new features that make me look forward to SP1 RTM.

    2x2GB or 4x1GB?

    Im sure all of those will work well. Personally, I have two sets of the corsair XMS2 (8 gigs total). Running my G0 Q6600 @3520 MHz. The performance is pretty amazing and I have not had any problems so far. (using an IP35 pro)

    P180 Replacement considerations

    can't go wrong with lian li. I've easily spent over a grand on lian li cases over the years, I'll never buy anything else ;)

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl

    I just istalled the game, i get pretty crappy performance as soon as I go outside with dynamic lighting on. Is this normal? It's practically unplayable on my rig: FX-60, 4 GB pc3200, 8800gts 640 (latest drivers), x-fi- though I am running vista ultimate.

    Vista's sleep and SLI

    It happens to me in both XP and vista? :( Does anyone know of a possible work around for this? I did a search in the ms KB and found this article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937500/en-us I wonder if this hotfix would help my problem but i doubt it as it only happens when SLi is...

    Vista's sleep and SLI

    The sleep function is by far one of my favorite features in vista. The problem is, I just cant get it to work properly when SLi is enabled (works fine in non-SLi mode). When my computer wakes from sleep mode I see a black screen for about 30 seconds until the vista log-in screen shows up. I...

    Vista Ultimate upgrade worth 195?

    Im still running on XP though I did buy the full retail version of vista ultimate when it was 60% off at closing CUSA stores. I'll use it when my SLi works and creative actually releases a good driver for my x-fi plat.
