    Zone Alarm ruined my PC

    I'd just like to start this post off by recomending against anyone here using ZoneAlarm, ever. If you like to have your computer host servers for stuff, DO NOT INSTALL THIS PIECE OF CRAP. Okay, so, on to my actual question. I uninstalled ZoneAlarm, deleted every file listed on the...

    Config to play games

    No, you'd run CSS like crap (no loss there, it's an awful game) and WoW isn't something I'm familiar with, but the game also sucks, so you're not losing out on much there either.

    Video playback lag in certain parts of files

    When I play back videos, sometimes the picture freezes entirely for about 6 seconds while the audio continues to play, then the video "skips" back into sync. I played the same video on my friend's slower, older PC and it didn't do this at all. What the hell? Is it media player classic or post...

    Black screen with x800 pro

    I just checked to see if it was plugged in all the way, it was. Still not working. The thing is, it used to display stuff fine until I changed drivers, now it has stayed messed up ever since. With the official ATI catalyst 5.9's it worked. I installed the 5.10's or 5.11's and it broke, and...

    Black screen with x800 pro

    I'm not sure how I would test for sufficient power. I'm sure my nforce stuff is done right. I'm not sure if it's connected properly. I'm sure the latest drivers are installed, the catalyst 5.13's. How do I make sure I get a clean install?

    Black screen with x800 pro

    I thought it was a driver related issue at first, but now I have no clue what it is. My computer is making a black screen when I do certain video overlay effects in games like Doom 3, Fear, GTA 3. Any ideas? I think I might have a dead pipeline or something, but I really don't want to buy a...

    Dell Dimension 8200 BIOS lockup

    Well, we finally figured out why it was locked up in the BIOS...the printer and the mouse were both connected into USB ports on the keyboard, which were taking up all the IRQ's in dos functions. How did we figure that out? I don't even know. At any rate, thanks for your help. I flashed the...

    Powercolor x800 pro black screen during doom3, FEAR

    I'd love to do this, but it's too late and I don't have the cash. I spent so much on this piece of crap when it came out...485 bucks. Anyone got any ideas? Could I have dead pipelines or something?

    Dell Dimension 8200 BIOS lockup

    The BIOS is just completely frozen. I can't change or select any options, so this plan is not viable. I can't check the settings to set them back to what they should be, because I can't navigate the menus. Also, is it possible that the BIOS battery is dead, so that's why the BIOS is frozen up?

    Dell Dimension 8200 BIOS lockup

    Hmm, F12 doesn't do anything. It just boots up as it normally does. It said I can hit F8 to configure windows stuff and it goes to scandisk, so I rebooted it and gave up on that. Is that what F12 was supposed to take me to?

    Dell Dimension 8200 BIOS lockup

    I need to know where to get the BIOS files, that's the only problem. Do you have a link? Also I need a BIOS flashing utility, prefferably a windows one, not a boot disk.

    Powercolor x800 pro black screen during doom3, FEAR

    Hi. I'm having a problem where the screen goes black during games. I have a powercolor radeon x800 pro card, I just updated to the catalyst 5.12's and whenever I use the artefact in doom 3, watch the intro of FEAR, or start GTA the screen is black. Why am I getting a black screen instead of...

    Now that Ive finished F.E.A.R..... *spoilers*

    Stop comparing this game to Doom 3. Stop saying, "It's better than Doom 3". Can't you liked BOTH games? They're both fun in their own ways.

    Hello, I have a radeon X800 Pro and to my knowledge the Catalyst 5.9's with the control panel run best with my card. Does anyone have a download link for them with the CATALYST Control Panel? Also, if you know of drivers that run better for the X800 Pro, please feel free to share your...

    Ram voltage cause of crash when OC'ed?

    I just don't understand what HTT is, or where to find it. I've actually read that sticky before, it makes as little sense to me as what you're telling me to do does. I don't have a HTT setting, it's just not in my motherboard. I have a HT ratio, ram settings, CPU multipllier and FSB...

    Ram voltage cause of crash when OC'ed?

    My motherboard has no settings for HTT, it just has CPU clock multiplier 1-11 and FSB 200-300. I have a HT thing that goes up to 4...what should this be set to? I have no idea what this is. Also, my ram can be adjusted, but there's no HTT for the ram either. I'm confused. You're asking me...

    My specs: Asus K8n-E deluxe 3400+ clawhammer 1 gig OCZ platinum rev. 2 Hello. When I set my FSB clock to 220 (20 higher than the default) my games instantly lock up and crash. I am assuming this is a ram issue. 1. Would my ram voltage fix this? 2. What should I have my ram...

    CS:S reccomended settings got lowered...?

    Yeah the game does seem to run worse. I got the purple windows fixed just by starting the game up again, but still no dice on the FPS test or the reccomended settings thing. Could it possibly be my AGP apeture size? I have it set to 128 right now on a 256 mb card, does that sound right?
