<0> or liquid nitrogen
<1> are there any apps or games that take advantage of these dual core processors? i don't see a difference in performance so far
<0> neoimp, i think q4 might... but all games atm are gpu limited, not cpu limited
<1> oh yea
<1> of course :P
<0> so you wouldn't see any diff anyway, unless you are running them at ver low res (in which case, it would be well above your refresh rate, hence unnoticable)
<2> rendering programs, encoding programs, most of the adobe suite, games like Q4, upcoming stuff like ut2007, oblivion, etc
<2> theres a good bit of software out there
<0> he asked about games...
<0> and as i said, its all gpu limited anyway
<1> oblivion eh
<2> no, actually he said
<2> <1> are there any apps or games
<0> so if your computer is a game machine, that extra money is better spent on vid card, not cpu
<1> ut2007 o.O
<1> ok
<1> 7800gt
<0> im blind ;p
<1> good enough
<2> get a 7800gt and a x2 3800
<1> i have x2 4200
<1> and 7800gt
<1> evga
<1> free cod2 and quake4 :D
<0> 7800gt should be good for any crt
<0> or lower res lcd
<0> at the moment that is ;p
<1> yea i stick to 1280x1024 or lower
<0> i can't stand playing games on lcd below native res... hence why i dont play many games recently ;p
<1> the black bars eh
<0> no
<1> pixelation?
<0> i can play without blackbars
<0> yeah if thats what you wanna call it
<0> if i run anything less than 1920x1200, it doesn't look crisp
<0> it doesn't look bad.. but im not happy with it like that
<1> i c
<1> brb in a few....hours need to reinstall windows

<2> BILL GATES pledged $900 million from the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation to fight the scourge of tuberculosis (TB).
<0> pimpage
<3> when i was in jail they told me I would get TB
<4> hey
<4> "ask it" the thing is i posted the question on a site
<4> and i really need help.. is anyone here who can help me out ?
<0> whats the damn question?
<3> then post the question here
<3> geez
<4> lol
<4> its long
<4> ok ok guys relax
<4> basically
<4> im getting static after a few mins with teamspeak
<4> so i was thinking its the sound card right
<4> some old creative pci 16 bit or 32 or i have no idea
<4> basically
<4> i knew it would happen, just thought i can fix it
<4> i tried re-adjusting it in its pci slot
<4> then when the compute rloaded
<4> i had a "new hardware wizard" for "Multimedia media controller" and it didnt get to install its drivers it oculdnt find em
<4> and i know that multimedia media controller from the past i remember having it but the sound worked without it so i figured WTH
<3> sounds more like a windows question
<4> well sure if theres a channel for that..
<4> not really
<4> because u see, im in safe mode now
<4> and how i got into here is because i tried to uninstall the creative drivers and then disconnect the card, load comp up, then close it reconnect plug in and install drivers
<4> but when i removed, there were 2 entries, 1 of em froze so i just closed it then deleted the creative folder in program files
<4> then restart and wadda u know, windows doesnt load up
<4> so im guessing its trying to call the sound drivers but cant find em :-\
<4> and i tried installing the drivers from safe mode but to no avail
<4> SBAudioSetup_W2k
<4> thats the installation
<2> lets hear it for scifi friday
<2> :D
<4> anyone ?
<3> if it was installed before it would be in the \system32 folder
<5> If there is some problem with cpu/memory and you try to turn on a atx motherboard, does it power up or does it just stay dead?
<4> depends
<5> on what?
<4> like
<4> maybe cpu yes
<4> but the memory if u have 2 sticks for example
<4> or if only one of the modules there is bad
<4> etc
<4> whats your problem ?
<5> well I had an old computer
<5> Socket A with amd tb processor
<5> ddr 266mhz memory
<4> k..
<5> and then I got some hardware hangups
<5> so I bought a new computer
<5> but now recently I bought a new motherboard
<5> since I figured that what was broken
<4> wait if u bought the new computer
<4> what do u need that new hd for ? te old one ?
<5> nevermind the new computer :D
<4> lol ok
<5> I am trying the fix the old one
<5> So I bought a new (old) socket a motherboard
<5> and now the computer wont even power up
<4> psu good ?
<4> all connections checked and double checked ?
<5> I ***ume so since it worked before with the old motherbaord
<5> this is what I think might be wrong
<5> cpu might not be compatible with the motherboard since its amd tb, and it might only be compatible with XP and duron
<5> the memory...pc2500 might not be compatible
<5> although it should work with 266mhz
<5> but the weird thing is that I dont get it to power up even though, not even the psu-fan starts
<5> and you should get that pc-speaker errorcode even though something isnt compatible
<5> right?
<0> one of several things,,,
<4> hmm
<0> psu bad, mobo bad, switch bad, cpu bad, or psu is not turned on
<4> ya it might be a compatibilty issue
<5> psu is turned on =)
<4> check em all online
<4> all the stuff
<4> lol
<0> you can see if the switch is bad by manualy jumping it
<5> yeah I've tried to use the sleep button swith, reset switch and the power switch
<5> I guess one of them should still be working =)
<5> and the mobo shouldnt be bad since its brand new
<0> id guess (in this order)... psu, mobo, cpu
<0> and just because something is new, doesn't mean it is good
<5> yeah thats true
<5> damn
<5> I had a similiar problem before when I bought a new computer
