Video Playback on Multi-Screen Monitor

Ali

Hi everyone I use my Geforce Ti 4600 for a dual monitor (Expanded 2304 X 864) desktop, and i have lots of problems when playing Video files. the biggest problem is the Full Screen video. I don't like the way the nvidia drivers handle Full Screen Video on the monitor.

Final Fantasy 7 and Radeon 9600

Deth

I had an old(er) Nvidia card, and FF7 worked just fine. But when I bought a Radeon 9600 it no longer does. It runs just fine, but the graphics are all screwed up. Is there any patches out there to fix that? I already have the XP patch.

Tricking Windows 98 into mapping a local folder as a network drive?

shassouneh

Hi all, The following WILL sound silly, but it has an advantage to it, so kindly bear with me. I have a Windows 98 machine called Main, with a share on it simply called shared. Whenever I chose to map \\Main\shared as a network drive (N: to be exact) on a different machine, it works like a charm.

MP3 Player Recommendations

Christianb

Hi Gang, I'm looking for MP3 Player recommendations. Before you tell me about your favorite Mp3 Player and I'm sure it's cool (for you) let me tell you what I'm looking for. I'm looking for something that will record me and possibly double as a flash drive (though that isn't as important).
