Setting refresh rate above 60Hz in Opengl?

Zwine

Yes, how is this possible? In w2k I can do it with nvreffix or by regedt32 but nvreffix doesn't support WinXP yet and it's no longer possible with regedt32. I have to boot to w2k to play opengl games with >60Hz.

IIS5 running FTP

Dredd

I am trying to run a FTP Server with IIS 5 and not having much fun. I need a few users to be able to have read and write access while the rest will just have read access. I can't figure out where I need to go to set it up so that this is possible.

OCA has posted a review on Max Payne by Remedy Entertainment. Installation is pretty straight forward, however Max Payne comes with some steep system requirements. Which is actually refreshing for a change.

Guys, Last weekend I took the plunge and installed win 2000. I tried to install on a brand new 30 gig disk. When installing win 2000 created a 2 gig partition and that was it so all I see in win 2000 is a 2 gig disk.

Game over, MS / XP wins!

SnapperOne

From the recent posts on XP, it appears MS has bought everybody off with game compatibility, stability, etc. . . . as a means of pushing product activation down everyone's throat. If everyone is prepared to trade off control of their computer so they can play some lousy game,.

Anyone using a logitech cordless mouseman optical?

rgodart

I really don't like this mouse, especially the scroll wheel. Is it a malfunction of my mouse or do all mouseman wheels feel so loose. i mean, normally a wheel clicks while scrolling and it scrolls only when clickig (at least on my good old MS wheelmouse).
