:lol: Tea, you sure are funny. Besides, you spelt testicles wrong—it's T.E.S.T.I.C.L.E.S. Ask your dad what they are; after he's had a few ales. :mrgrn:

Didn't win the lottery :cry:

<MORE FLAME> Great deals, mail in rebates (120GB hard drives for $20 etc). We've heard of them in Aus. Never been able to get them though :x </MORE FLAME>

I thought that as well then read it as meaning 2500+ and the author not knowing the difference. Either way, it doesn't say a lot.

BTW, I've typed spyware as "spayware" three times today. Maybe that's what it does to you :)

Needed to find this to get Tea/Tannin's spware removal script.

just your average gaming machine really :roll: Hasn't converted me to believing in 3DMark either. It really seems pointless as a tool.

20something to Merc What's a phone? 8)

Then the answer is BTX :mrgrn: <ducks> <dons kevlar suit>

No. And I'm about to lose one of the X2's :( Might also lose the S745 :( Even worse, my internet dropped out last night so I have a number of WUs waiting to be submitted and no crunching is being done... I'll trouble shoot when I get home.

I just built a S939 Gigabyte NF4 board (K8NF) with Maxtor SATA drive. I did not need floppy/special drivers/special builds. I think Tannin or someone mentioned that NVIDIA and Intel SATA don't need special drivers but that others do.

Yes, the folding is strong in this one! You are proving most elusive :)

I wish it was my new sports car! Only if I win the lottery tonight :(

I read half of that list but I would take exception to the term "goon" The wiki list described it as ..."cheap cask wine, also can mean the bag containing the wine also know as a goon bag."... In my day (80's), a "goon" was the 2 litre glass flagon, a cask was a cask. But language is an...

Has anybody seen/know anything more about these ATTO PCD-e X4 U320 SCSI HBA's? Prices, availability? http://www.attotech.com/press/UL5D10.05.html

reads Tony's reply. :shudders:

Tony, are you sure that somone wasn't reading this: http://www.rinkworks.com/stupid/cs_piecing.shtml and decided to pull your leg? :lol: :eekers:

The Vista interface will (from my understanding) degrade gracefully if the video card isn't DX 9.0 capable. What that means is that you (probably) won't get the fancy 3D graphics/icons. And that won't be any great loss. And as for the second bit, I hate ATi and NVIDIA for saying part X has Y...

Thank you for your kind words. Bartender, drinks all 'round!

And I shouldn't be posting at 2:30 AM my time!

You know, I really have to get a life. I shouldn't know where these articles are at the drop of a hat. :eekers:

Photoshop? see here http://www.techreport.com/etc/2005q4/mem-latency/index.x?pg=6 top graph, top two bars. Short answer—Nope!

According to this source: http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/cpu/display/athlon64-e3-mem.html The E Stepping A64 (Venice 512KB, San Diego 1MB) can use 4 channels with double-sided DIMM's @ DDR400 (though I think it defaults to 2T). Single sided can be run in a 4 x 1T config. The D Stepping can...

How is it that Apple gets the new Intel chips (Hans Solo or some such :mrgrn: ) before DiLL? IMO, this makes a Dell/AMD announcement much more likely. http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=28955 Or are we talking the prisoner's dilema? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prisoner%27s_dilemma

:rofl:

:rofl:

There are already female cat fight sites—usually pay-per-view—and possibly involving latex, mud, jelly... :mrgrn:

FX-60 will be the fastest S939 chip. Faster chips will be on Socket AM2 http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=2668&p=1

Nah, I can't keep up the pace. I currently have 2 X2's (4 cores), S754, P4 1.6, XP1800+, P!!! 600 and the P2 400 Smoothy box folding. One of the X2's is a build for a friend, and when he gets around to bringing his K6-III 400 around, I'll transfer files and say farewell to the box. Someone...

From a link at "Stooples" http://www.job-hunting-tips.com/interview-center/interviews13.html

I have corresponded with MS since at least 2000. He doesn't like to advertise the Dr. bit.

That would be 3G :oops:

Found this in my travels http://forums.luxology.com/discussion/topic.aspx?id=4050 3rd post down by Spotty Instead of a 2GB/2Gb split, with 512MB or more of the OS stuff disappearing I'd try the 3G switch first, as it's basically a freebie, and then go back to 3GB total if that doesn't work...

You could try the 3G switch in boot.ini as well, this might free up a bit more, but the absolute maximum you will see (out of 4GB) is 3.5GB. You could also try a real 64-bit OS :)

This is a Windows issue. The OS grabs some of the RAM (in 4GB systems) for PCI/AGP mappings (memory mapped IO devices). How much is grabbed is sytem dependent http://support.microsoft.com/?id=279151 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;555223...

Thanks Merc. If worst comes to worst, I can always write something I guess.

I have a number of source files that I want to normalise the audio for—some are too loud and some are too soft. What I want to be able to do is either grab the lot (files) and find the loudest and softest and then adjust the audio on each DVD/MPEG2 file—preferably saving the DVD/MPEG2 file with...

Solved. I needed Nero Ultra edition—with a plugin for Nero VisionExpress in order to author AC3 DVD files.

THey are non-standard VOB files. There are no IFO or other files so Shrinks re-author utility won't work.

I have the (most recent) K-Lite codec pack installed, and looking at the Configuration menu, it looks like the AC3 codec is installed. I tried setting the Use AC3 Filter for options to PCM and MPEG Audio (all the other options were already ticked) but no joy.[/b]

I have a couple of VOB files that I want to add to a DVD—except the VOB files in question won't play with audio. If I use MPC on the computer, or Nero Show Time, the files play just fine. When I use Nero VisionExpress to author the DVD, the files play but ther is no audio. As near as I can...

From Aus :)

Here you go http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/storage/display/dvd-4burners.html

That page only appeared after AMD launched their legal action against Intel. The IT press has covered this page and it is common knowledge that there is no direct link to it on SuperMicro's site—you have to know the URL to get to it. SuperMicro are still firmly in Intel's pocket.

Abit found fame with BIOS overclocking & th BH6. Nobody was doing it at that time. But in a couple of years everybody had caught up, and Abit was still charging a premium, for no added value. EPoX springs to mind as offering the same features at a better price point. Then most of their...

The exploit uses vulnerabilities in WMF and (possibly) EMF files. IE is automatically vulnerable, FF users have to do something stupid. Opera users are (apes) ignored. :) Sorry Tea. http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=28590

Living in Aus has some great points, but it can be a little tiring at times too... I think I'll change my name to Franz Ferdinand. :eekers:
