    What car(s) do you regret selling the most? (bring pics!!)

    I would SO buy that off you Tanya, if it were RHD :( Anyway, this is the biggest regret of mine - this isnt the actual photo as i didn't think to take one on the digital camera at the time (not while it was in gwo anyway): 1986 Ford Sierra XR4x4: although, here's where it ended up after...

    Crysis crashing during opening video... can someone help?

    260? Not worth it, at all. Radeon HD4870 = cheaper + better all rounder. And AMD now would be fail++ as the CPU's are possibly the biggest pieces of junk possible compared to the Core2's. You could put together a good Core2 rig that would blow it away for less money.

    Crysis crashing during opening video... can someone help?

    For crysis, you can enable most DX10 exclusive features, but there are still a few that are DX10 ONLY. I've seen plenty of bunk about DX10 on XP, but really, thats all they are - bunk. Oh i'm sure theres some kludge that cobbles bits and pieces together to EMULATE the featureset - but without...

    Crysis crashing during opening video... can someone help?

    Jesus - an XP? I'm surprised that it runs - the game engine somewhat expects SSE2, so i dont know if it'll even work without it. The minimum supported is a 2.8Ghz or higher - which means Athlon XP's just aren't upto the task. Athlon64 at minimum - and a Socket AM2 at that. And your GPU is also...

    So, who else is leaving facebook?

    I know i will be by the end of the week, if the old layout is no longer an option. I'm sick of being treated like some moron, patronised with 'you'll get used to it' when i complain about the new layout. 2 million people can't be wrong. Theres something called CONSUMER CHOICE and facebook are...

    9Ghz? Thats un-possible. 4.5Ghz sure, on water maybe. 4Ghz on air, possible.

    Wrong. Most boards with overclocking features these days have memory dividers and the PCI & PCIe bus frequencies are LOCKED unless otherwise changed, it's possible to change the CPU & memory speeds totally independantly of any other onboard device. And DDR2 ECC is expensive, and speed grades...

    Return that fireGL straight away and get yourself a Radeon HD4850 for way, WAY less money - all the FireGL features can be enabled through a driver hack!
