  2. Update your nvidia graphics card drivers to the latest version. This cured the same problem on my mates pc.

    drivers problem(urgent)

    What graphics card have you got installed, and what drivers are you using? Have you tried reseating the graphics-card? Also, have you installed VIA 4in1's? (I actually don't install these anymore since XP - but still)

    Quote: Damnit!! I hate building my own com cause i am damn lazy and i haf a ultra tight budget. bout $1200. i want the 6800gt!!!! FCK when will the videocard wars ever end? FCK nvidia and ati, For going so fast a ferrari cant catch up. Hmmm.. Contradiction in itself their buddy. Without the videocard wars, you would still be paying 2x the amount you might be now. I welcome the videocard wars, and am glad ATI have stirred it up with Nvidia.

    Typical BT !! They should know what you are using. The line is theirs, the dialup is theirs, and now the broadband connection is theirs. If you kick off enough you _should_ with a bit of luck get a refund, seeing as they supply you with everything. GL

    Mafia-debug problem in XP

    Hi Ando. The solution would be to apply a NO-CD Crack. The error you are receiving is because of the safedisc protection. Use google to search, as I am not allowed to post sites where you would be able to obtain such a file. GL

    When I return to the site a day after and click on '34 forum topics' to list the new/updated ones since my last visit, I receive a whole page, of at least 100 or so. This feature did used to work. It only broke middle of last month.

    I can't get my AvP GE working on XP HE

    I think he means Aliens Vs Predator 'Gold Edition'. I can't check for patches etc as I am at work. Gamesites = filtered EDIT: A bit more information regarding the problem wouldn't go amiss. What errors are you receiving? etc EDIT 2 : http://www.ntcompatible.com/cdetail8354.html Searching the actual site you are asking a question on would be a good start.

    For the old DOS gamers: OpenGL ports of CLASSICS!

    BTW, there is a mod for Doom 3 in the making that redoes Doom with Doom 3 graphics. http://cdoom.arqz.com/index.php?page=news Looks very very cool.

    Can't Install Half Life 1.0

    Well. I have installed it with SP2. The way you can do it, is to install steam www.steampowered.com, enter your HL key and install it through steam.

    Carmageddon 2 - Carpocalypse Now

    Woohoo...Great thread to resurrect. I can remember posting on this board many moons ago about C2. I could get it to work but not with a pad. Can't wait to try this sometime over the next week. (My time is taken up with playing 3 player gauntlet, Space Harrier, and Star Wars in Mame at the moment on my TV).

    WinXP activation

    Well..Actually, you don't have to buy a new license. You can call Microsoft and tell them you have installed it on a new Hardware configuration, and ask them to reset it for you. This will of course disable your other install from getting any other updates etc.

    I would also post your hijacck log on the www.spywareinfo.org forums. Theie forums are specifically for this kind of post.
  20. Just had another email: - ======================== Dear Customer IMPORTANT INFORMATION Latest update with reference to Doom 3 on PC. We now have email confirmation from Activision the game publisher, stating the following. “There is a limited edition launch on 13th August. This will be a normal scanavo case inserted into a premium card box outer. The premium box will be available for a limited time only (roughly 8-10 weeks), after which the card outer will be removed, leaving just the standard edition in the marketplace.” Would you like to keep your existing order with us or change your order? Please can you reply to this e-mail stating:- Limited edition requested (£24.95) Release Date 13th August 2004 or Standard edition requested (£17.95) Release Date Mid October 2004 ======================== Hmm..Bit stingy just having a cardboard cover...but still..I'd rather not wait until mid Oct.
  21. Both normal boxed versions of those games for me. I just find they take up too much room, so I put the boxes up out of the way, and just put the cd-case on my pc game shelf
  22. Re: The steel case, yeah it probably will be. TBH, if it was more than the price quoted I wouldn't have bought it. I just didn't want to wait over a month to get my copy. With the case thing, it doen't matter to me, I just want the game.
