007 Nightfire won't start in XP

relayerman

Anyone have any suggestions other than the one EA gives you for getting 007 Nightfire running on XP w/SP1 and all the updated drivers for Creative Audigy and ATI Radeon 8500DV? I'm bummed. I get the splash screen and then a black screen for a few seconds and BAM! back to the desktop.

fileshareing/mp3 news

ViolentGreen

I don't know if you all have seen this or not but a Federal Judge ruled that software companies who provide file sharing apps are not responsible for illegally trading of copyright material. This is a huge blow to the music industry.

"Recent" processors on ASUS A7M266

Shin_Magus

Hi. I'd like to know if relatively recent Athlon XP processors (like 2400+ and 2600+) can be used on ASUS A7M266. The page regarding that on ASUS' website hasn't been updated in a long while, so I don't know if 2200+ and up can be used on A7M266 after all (the page may merely have not been updated).

Black-white screen when trying to record with MovieMaker2

Lord

Windows XP Home Edition - Windows moviemaker2 When i connect my VCR with a S-video cable to my computer I get a black & white screen. No colors. The videocard is a Radeon 9600 ATX. Now, I've heard that the problem could be that I have to change the settings from PAL to nsct.

I would like to personally announce the release of CD-Text Manager and invite you to download a copy from What is CD-Text Manager? This program basically extracts the CD-Text from a CD in any drive on your computer.

[win2k] error BSOD when changing the pagefile size

rgodart

My win2k pro sets the size of the page file automatically. I wanted to give the pagefile a fixed value (250 MB) since there's only 128 MB ram in that computer, so when changing the size i clicked on set and then OK.

NT 4 PDC. I want a 2000 BDC for it Possible??? How?

duhmez

I currently have no BDC but I do have a 2000 standalone. I ran dcpromo but it seems to only work if there is AD on the network. How can I make it a BDC emulator for my NT 4 domain? I want my SAm backed up, and I want logon fault tolerance, and I do not want to upgrade the NT 4 BDC yet.

This is a cool trick for al those of you running Windows 2000 or XP and have at LEAST 512 MB of RAM (hint hint: time to shell out memory for that RAM chip you wanted). First of all, I must give credit to where i found this trick.
