if there are more available in your area (Tabs are localised) then Open the main Messenger window, and near the bottom on the left is a small picture of 3 tab windows if you hover the mouse over that it should say show/hide tabs just clik that and select what you want.

must admit I only installed it to watch the HALO 2 trailler

no its definetly a bug in WMP9 just tried it there with a movie I made, and you can only skip once the next time it goes to the beginning, Plus the Total Running time was way off, 345 hrs instead of the 90 minutes it should be :'(

i just downloaded it from http://download.microsoft.com/download/whistler/SP/SP1/WXP/en-us/xpsp1_en_x86.exe]Here Its a MS Server and everything went well in the Install process. Seems to be the final code (i think)

no overclocking on the system.

hi, i forgot i had posted this i had defrag'd the drive no joy, i managed to fix it by rolling the system back 2 weeks.

hum strange, it said Conflict/Desert Storm (SCI), then underneath that one it said "Conflict/Descent: FreeSpace (Volition Inc./Interplay)" when i first saw it, but it now only lists your post. Oh well.

On the Latest Results page you have Conflict Desert Storm listed as working for XP, any idea where the person got a copy because the game ins't out till September, and the Demo is next month on the UK Offical XBOX Magazine (no idea when for PC) it also says "May require 1.06 patch available from " theres no patch either The only 2 sites i know about for the game are Offical Site and the 1 fan site i know is the one i am developing (slowly) Fan Site and neither list any PC Demo ect. Thanks guys

2 Questions today 1) Not sure if this is a fault at my end or my ISP's but since Wedensday i have been experiencing some really slow http browsing sometimes upto 10 minutes to get a single webpage I use IE6 under XP Pro, and have Norton Personnel Firewall (no difference to browsing if enabled or disabled) i have a 512K NTL Cable Service. I think the problem is more at my end because my Laptop shares the cable Modem via a wireless network, and that access the pages at the usual fast rate, plus if i use Opera on the Desktop i can access pages really fast. But i haven't changed any settings so have no idea why its started doing this. 2) Not too important though i used to use the tabs in MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger in the main window down the left habd side there used to be tabs with options like Expedia, UK Goverment and MSN Money/Stock Tracker those have now disappeared on my copy, any ideas on how to get them back, the help files said there is an option under Tools but its not there on mine. Any Help appreciated Thanks.

got the latest BIOS. as far as i remember i installed the Intel ini files, maybe i never did cant remember 100% now UPDATE: In device Manager the Intel® 82845 Processor to AGP controller has a driver date of 01/07/2001 singed by Microsoft Windows XP Publisher so guess i never installed the ini file

retail box set dont get me wrong all applications run fine and no crashes ect just abit worried about the high temperature, the fan seems to do 4400 rpm's constantly. Checked the HSU (man its a pain to get in there ) seems to be sitting on the CPU ok, cant move it and its locked down good, tried removing and resitting no luck there. Would a better HSU help?

i only have the heat sink that came with it and the Main fan in the case at the back and a small one at the front. Saying that the case is sold as a P4 compatible case but everything is really crowded. Someone suggested the heatsink is on the wrong way but i dont see how, it is pluged into the board and attached o the CPU and Retension Mechannisms

Hi have a small problem with my GA-8IRXP and Geforce 4 4400 from creative, i dont get good frame rates Ran the following benchmarks 3D MArk 2001 SE and got 4400 and GL Mark gave me an average of 21 FPS. Using FRAPS in flashpoint i get 14 FPS, Jedi Knight 2 only 18 fps and comanche 4 gets me 20 fps. demo for SOF 2, and the columbia map plays fine at 20-30 fps but the ship one plays at 1-4 fps outside and 10-15 fps inside Now i usually run with all options enabled, and at 1024*768*32 I have a P4 1.7 with 512MB RAM and shutting everything down doesn't help at all. I have XP and the 28.32 drivers. Soundcard is a SB Audigy. Any ideas on improving performance? i was getting better results with my Geforce 2 Pro! Thanks

ouch! i have a P4 1.7 and a GA-8IRXP and the CPU runs at 60-65 degrees constantly :'(

other alternative is if you dont plan to play online is run a firewall and set MOH:AA to Blocked, as far as i know this is a known bug in the game which they either cant or wont fix based on reports from just after the games release.
