    OC gpu ruin mobo : /

    Yeah thanks I tried, but I got errors and that is when I realized the gpu's weren't being recognized during the boot up. Usually WinXP will give it a default driver and then I can update the driver, but now it doesn't recognize it to update it. I'm putting a new pc together soon and will...

    OC gpu ruin mobo : /

    Hi all, I OC my 8800 GT card and then it froze and BSOD during boot ups. I reinstalled Win and got rid of the BSOD, but now it's not recognizing the gpu at all. I even tried a 560 card and it did the same thing. I tried everything I could think of and it seems to me there is something wrong...

    cannot install need for speed most wanted

    Here’s a little hope. If you edit the registry to underground, most wanted will install. I can’t find the link I used or remember just what I did, but I found this link. I’m thinking it’s probably what I did. http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=158164

    smooth gaming with 7800 gtx??don't think so...

    I didn’t think vsync was useless. UT use to “play smoother” for me and some games had “tearing”, so since then my first choice was to leave it on. It would seem to me on would be the quality setting and off would be for performance. I always shoot for quality, to much in fact. Haha. Your...

    Yeah you’re right it doesn’t matter with vsync off. I’m use to having it always on. My bad.

    Game won't start

    It sounds like your video card and game settings aren’t seeing eye to eye. I think if you lower the video card settings you might be able to get back in. Like lower the refresh rate, no AA or anything else that will directly affect the game. You might get back in. If not uninstalling the...

    smooth gaming with 7800 gtx??don't think so...

    Just download and install coolbits2 here. Then go into the Nvidia display setting and look for the override refresh rate. If you can’t get any better refresh rate then you’ll have to use different settings to get the fps up.

    smooth gaming with 7800 gtx??don't think so...

    Your monitor doesn’t sound to hot if it can’t go over 1280* 1024. What refresh rate are you playing at? In the Nvidia display setting there is “override refresh rate”, but you need to install “coolbits2” or some other tool for this option to show. A good refresh rate for 1024* 768 would be...

    Game Section reorganization

    I think BigMac said it well. Its self explanatory and doesn’t get any simpler then that. General PC Gaming Console Gaming Handheld Gaming I also think there are to many out dated post and some worthless ones as well. Having so many subforums adds to the clutter. I think if things...

    Software section

    You can’t hold it against some of use for crying out smoke. You basically already said up front we needed 50 game folders for the 500,000 post and didn’t give us any hope you wanted or would reduce it.

    Software section

    Guess Steve didn’t like the ideal everybody was in agreement to go from 50 folders down to 5. Maybe we should of worked on a few folders at a time. :lol: The 500,000 post have to go somewhere. It’s like the forum is trying to be more like a reference then a forum with more than three million...

    Search Bug

    It must be on your end. It’s weird you get the first page, but not the other's. What browser are you using? If you tried different browser did you change anything that you can recall. Maybe firewall. I don’t know, that’s a tough one, but I would guess you changed something at one time or another.
