Yearout

This might not help but I have a G4 and if I use any drivers higher than 44.03 there is no Pixel Shadeing. If I use 44.03 its all there and Morrwind looks great.

Go for it! Now on my computer is way faster then XP. To buy it for a gaming pc would be stupid. As for games running test it for your self, so far I have read about alot of games not running yet the ONLY one that quits is FOR ME is Vietcong, which runs fine just quits about 20min in the game. Like BF, I just play it and it played fine. Me I got WinNet free.

Sorry guys but this game sucks. Why? well we went in to this house and my buddy starts shoting while the getting shot at. So I'm standing there watching as they get shot about 150 times yet no one dies. This was not the 1st time. Some expansion.

Quote: I usually like TDK as well, but I would like to throw out a warning - their newer drives (48x and 40x) are not nearly as good as the old ones. My roommate bought a 48x, and about every third disc he burned was bad. Also, my 12x TDK was ripping cd audio literally five times faster. It's no wonder then that you can find the TDK 40x and 48x drives for around $100, yet the 32x still costs $150... lol I should have put that in there that mine is 16x.... Thanks I will remember what you said about there newest ones..

OMG I can almost see it.....the bsod, it was caused by just one thing Now if someone could help me and find out what that one thing is..

Pop-up stopper. Its the best. I have never had ONE ad slip by. I also use Fast Browser which has a ad stopper with it.

Quote: Hi, I have Windows XP Pro installed on my computer and just now I've reinstalled my NFS games (3, 4, and 5). None of those seem to work, are there any patches available for this problem? Thanks in advance BaRaBaS For Need for speed high staks I found a "nfshspatch450" and the it worked great. And PORSCHE just works great. At 1st I tried compatibility and it worked but man it was slow. I turned if off and now every thing works...

Well I'll put my 2 cents in, I love the TDK. Never ever had a problem burning anything.

I was just reading somthing about the new NV30 http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=5833 I am not sure how ture it is but wow..

A good place to try is http://www.3dsoundsurge.com/drivers.html#Recent%20additions They keep it real good...

Well I have Nvidia GF2 and GF3 and VIA and Radeon and all work great. You need to look into it your self. Your always going to find someone for and against.

Sorry but it is not DirectX. I'v got a Geforce3 and a SB Audigy and Nascar 4 runs super fast. I know for a fact its the Sound card because philips, Herc, and a old SB live. When the SB live is in everything goes slow. The others work great.

Sorry bud, {Geforce} For WinME and now WinXP with 3d glasses. I should have put that in there. 3D Glasses.

WOW
