Have you done that “delete the rad file” thingy, Madmax knows more about it than me but i had the same prob last week.
OR
is it a computer problem?
I’ve done the RAD file thingy in the past, but the problem always recurs eventually. Did not try it last night, though – once I crashed out I just couldn’t be arsed to go through all the malarkey. So it was downstairs for a beer in front of the TV for me.
I bloody hate PC’s too 🙂
Thanks chaps. So from your replies here’s my candidate list:
-
* Drugs & Hookers – Given the budget, I don’t think so. Also, not sure it’s something I could suggest my mother in law buy me.
* Electronic toilet seat – no mechanical arm is getting remotely close to my arse, thankyou very much!
* Leatherman – got one. Great piece of kit.
* Chess set – Not a bad suggestion. Been a while since I’ve played, but having it on display will make me look smarter than I am.
* Worms Open Warfare – don’t know what it is.
* VB2005 book – Nah. C# FTW!.
* Mini tripod – Got one. And three bigger ones too. Nice suggestion though.
* COD4 – Good one! I’ll add that.
* 24 DVD – Lost interest after the second series.
* DVD of Family Guy – never watched it.
* Electric condiments – Already got these. Complete with torch too!
* Charity donation – Oh, c’mon…. 😉 Seriously, family and self already do a load of that throughout the year.
* GI Joe/ Action Man – Sorry, waaay to gay for me.
* Neon’s Lucky Dip – How would I explain that to my mum? 😯 😉But keep’em coming!*
*unless you’re already bored by this thread.
It is indeed cracking stuff. I blogged about it here:
Pimp my pixelThere’s a link in the article that takes you to a demo that you can try yourself. Well worth a go.
Mugs – It might be worth checking that you’ve got the full AGP bus speed. If your card can do 8x, for example, but your motherboard only supports 4x then that will throttle the transfer of data between main memory and card and kill your benchmark. Or maybe your motherboard can do 8x, but for some reason has been set to a lower speed.
Poke around the display information dialogs to dig this out, and maybe your BIOS settings too.
Worth a check anyway, just to rule it out.
Absolutely Dutchy.
Can you imagine….NZ beat someone in a defense dominated final decided by kicks. On getting the trophy, they hand it back saying “No thanks, mate, we didn’t play wide. Rather you give it to the other team”. Yeah, riiiiggghhhhtt……
The fact is NZ choked yet again. And I pissed myself laughing when France beat them. Chabal facing up to the Haka was a fantastic sight.
Really good tournament this time. Some good upsets, a variety of games, and SA deserved to win. Never thought I would see England in the final, but really pleased they made it.
A few late ones there…… 😯 Brings back a few (painful) memories.
And people say it’s boring….
In a similar vein to Insane’s vid but with some actual play not just big hits:

Thank goodness for the description to the right in youtube to figure out what he did cause I couldn’t handle watching more than 10 seconds of him.
Indeed. Watching that shit is just a waste of my life.
…but you could say the same of being on XDC forums! 😉
