D3D Black Screen

Milamber_NZ
I'm not sure about the Half-Life black screen issue on XP, it runs fine for me on OGL. But I do have the BLack Screen issue with Operation Flashpoint. The game is running OK, but there is just no display, since OPF has no OGL support, Im not really sure what to do.

Default Service Listing for XP RC1

JohnnyChangs
Hi I was experiencing some network slowness on my home network, one machine with XP RC1/WinME dual-boot, the other computer runs just ME. I decided to play around with some of the Services in XP, and now I can't connect to the internet at all.

All right people: READ THIS

DosFreak
Look in here: WTF does it say Worms Armageddon works in XP? As far as I know it doesn't. To verify I want each and every one of you who has Worms Armageddon and Windows XP to load it up and try it.

Madonion.com - Everyone over there about 14?

BladeRunner
All, Now, if you frequent the pages over at and you don't fall into the category I shall describe then I appologise. However I feel, like me you fall into the minority. Now, I'm really starting to believe that 90% of people over at the mentioned site are about 14 with raging hormones with their minds firmly on ***.

Task Manager In XP Home Edition?

Pikey
Ok, I'm looking to the future here for a possible upgrade when XP finally hits the stores. I'm running Windows 2000 Pro at the moment, mainly for the stability and superb memory management. A simple question to guide my upgrade to either XP Home or Pro (amongst many others), but does the Home Edition ship with a Ta ...

Why Doesn't New GUI Work For ICQ Buddy List

ShoeHornOPlenty
Just wondering why this is. When I say the new GUI I mean for your ICQ buddy list you know how to have the title bar at the top of it with the close and minimize buttons. That uses the old style GUI, similar to how it is with the Command Prompt, however the msg windows for ICQ use the full blown new GUI.

TFT Panels - Opinions please!

BladeRunner
I've posted this thread onto a couple of other forums I frequent, but I thought I'd get you guys to give some opinions. I'm taking a close look at TFT panels. A 17. 4 - 18 would set me back £1000. Fair enough, if I bought one of these babies I'd be using it for 5 years+.

You should see what i did. :)

HELLBRINGER
Well I don't have a picture yet. But I will soon hopefully for you guys. I took this old funle type thing from a old Sony VAIO PCV-150 computer. That took the air from the powersupply right above the heatsink and narrowed and focused the air onto the heatsink for cooling.
