    Pinnacle Mobile Media Converter

    I just bought Pinnacle's Mobile Media Converter from CompUSA's downloadable software store last night. It installed fine but it requires a patch to work with Vista 32bit.

    Crossfire on an SLI Board

    I love my Asus M2N32-SLI-DX mobo and want to upgrade my graphics with a 2900XT. And I plan to get another card for multi-GPU gaming later on, but I don't want another mobo! Are there any driver hacks out there where I can enable crossfire on an nVidia chipset?
