  1. Ok, this has bothered me for some time, how do I get more TABS to show up in Windows Messenger (I know trivial but its been bothering me for some time now). My only choices are Microsoft .NET Alerts and MSN Money. Any help would be appreciated.


  2. I wouldn't recommend compatibility mode. The problem lies in the processing power of the audio card. I haven't used reason in a while but i know that in Rebirth you could select DirectX Output or Waveout Output. With my old SBLive card I found that using Waveout skipping was less frequent.

    Also, the SBLive Audigy apparantly processes audio better than the old EMU10K1 SbLive Cards.


  3. I had the same problem in Win2K. The problem disappeared when i went to Dual processors. I suggest upgrading to WinXP Pro, it seems to handle audio programs a little better. YOu should also look into purchasing a professional audio sound card. Something from Yamaha, or maybe even E-Mu Systems (the E-Mu APS is an excellent card).

     

    I do alot of audio recording. If you want to ask me any questions you can ICQ me at 19901838 or MSN me at fear_machine@hotmail.com


  4. Its a cool idea. Its nice to have alternatives out there. For once someone is doing something totally innovative (I don't want any "windowsXP is innovative" replys. M$ has a big big budget to work with where as other companies do not). I have a soft spot for the underdog. Who knows maybe in 15 years Lindows will take the lead in the desktop PC market. Speaking of alternatives has anyone used QNX or AmigaOS 5? QNX has by far the best clustering service around (its the only "realtime" os around. Or so they claim). I think Each operating system has its own little thing that it accels in over other desktop/server operating systems.

     

    Can't wait to test drive Lindows.


  5. I have an ASUS CUV4X-D motherboard with the latest bios 1014. The problem I am experiencing is that when every I try to run REdhat/Mandrake/SuSE Linux in SMP mode the OS will hang during the initial boot. The only way I can get SMP to work in linux is to disable MPS1.4 support. The question I have is there any benefit to having MPS enabled or disabled? Will there be any performance or compatiblity issues in WindowsXP Pro if I change this setting? Also, what the hell does MPS do?


  6. I had problems with this as well. The easiest way to fix it is to download the *fixed exe file (used so you can play YOUR backup copies of Hot Date). Upon installing the fixed exe I was able to play with no problems what so ever. If you need this fixed exe email me at jmeier_meier@sasktel.net or MSN Messenger @ fear_machine@hotmail.com .

     

    **Note: THis is not wa*rez as users are entitled to make backup copies for their own use. If you are reading this post I am assuming that you own a legitimate copy of the software.


  7. Nero 5.5.5.1 with the MPEG2 Codec will automatically encode DivX files to VCD/SVCD files before it burns them to CD. If the DivX movie is over 60 mins then I cut the divx movie in half using virtual dub and burn the two avi's to two seperate cds, once again, using nero.


  8. Same problem here. All opengl games fuk up when i exit them.

  9. The game refuses to start. I tried using the command line -safe to enter in safe mode but it still won't run. Tried changing from Direct3D to Software Rendering still no go. I'm using WindowsXP 2600 Corporate.

  10. I have noticed the same problem with my machine as well. I'm running WinXP Corporate. This probable only occurs at random. When the problem does occur the only icons that do appear are the ones showing my active network connections. The programs are running they just don't appear in the taskbar. Only solution i have found for this is to log off (no user switching) and log in again. I find this extremly annoying. Another problem i noticed is that when exiting out of certain games all my icons and web content (in folders) has disappeared.
