OT: GDI objects

Gambler FEX online
You familiar with XP's task manager? Ctrl-Shift-Esc. Under View, select columns, add GDI objects to the list. THen sort by GDI objects. Is anything using a ton fo GDI objects? The more GDI objects a program uses, the slower your system will be.

Need help with TV-out with GeForce

reppy
I recently installed Windows XP, and overall, it's been really good to me. . . Except, I can't get my TV-out to work. I've tried every damn possible driver I can think of, and the only one that gets me close makes me restart my computer everytime I want to switch between screens.

Fast switching...Problems

emthompson
Ok, I enabled fast switching for my computer since I have a couple people using it. The switching works in my account , administrator, but it doesn't work well in the other acounts. I thought that this was because they weren't administrators so I changed the user accounts to be admins.

Don't use DISKEEPER 7!!!

DrX
This is NOT A FINAL PRODUCT! The one I got was a beta and wasn't labeled as such, I ended up corrupting my RAID array and had to reformat. I didn't know the problem was Diskeeper 7 at the time and proceeded to reinstall it only to have my system corrupted again.

Do they make AT form factor boards anymore?

ArchWeenie
I have an AT style case that I customized and would hate to give up. The problem is that I can't seem to find any AT style boards anymore that can hold more than a k6-2 cpu. Does anyone know of any company that makes these boards? I would love to find one that is socket A.

front page layout

ark
Hi, I'm not really steaming with anger, but I would like to see more news items per page on the front page. Why? Because you guys update it so often and there is always plenty of new articles, unless I'm looking at your page all day long hitting a refresh all the time, I'm bound to miss some news.
