Mixing RAM

I have a noob question! Woo! :D So, at the moment I have 2x1gb sticks of Crucial Ballistix (DRR800). I also happen to have 2x1gb sticks of Corsair VS (DDR667). I was planning on selling the VS, but as the price has crashed I'd lose too much cash, so I might just wait and try and sell it when...

BF2 "connection has been lost" caused by Dual Core

Hmm, that's interesting. I'm also using the nvidia nforce4 ethernet (I have the marvell disabled as I heard it was a bit sucky?) So you were also getting dropouts in BF2? (I should emphasise that the internet runs flawlessly 24/7, I never have any problems unless I'm playing BF2 (fixed...

BF2 "connection has been lost" caused by Dual Core

Yeah, weird. My system has been working fine for a few months now. I've had the 2 patches installed since the start, and have been playing BF2 fine. Lately however, I keep getting booted from servers with the 'your connection has been lost' message. After MUCH messing about, I started...

Wireless network dramas :(

I can't test it for another 6 hours or so (I'm at work), but the problem occurs when the laptop is literally right next to the router so I don't think its a strength issue. Thanks for the help though. Assuming the problem still occurs on every channel, do I have any options? It's weird...

Wireless network dramas :(

Hi, thanks for the reply. I've tried several different channels but nothing seems to help in that regard. Ah ok, that's interesting. I guess I need to try every single channel to try and find one that isn't so 'congested' :) It's probably the damn neighbours with a new phone or...

My SLI seems temperamental

Hi all :) I have 2 7800GTX in SLI at the moment. An MSI (default 430 and 1.2) and an XFX (default 450 and 1.25). As far as I can tell both cards are running at the higher clocks (those clocks are displayed when I check in the control panel). I've installed NV Silencer 5 Rev 3 on both...

Graphical glitches with MSI 7800 GTX. Help :(

Just got an MSI 7800 GTX yesterday and I'm having a few issues I seem to be having problems with the HardOCP Farcry benchmark. I get really bad corruption on the River benchmark. I'm totally clueless about nVidia drivers as I've always used ATI and the nVidia control panel has totally confused...

Quick nVidia control panel question

Hi, I've recently switched over to nVidia after being 'with' ATI for a few years. I'm finding the control panel good, but more complicated than the ATI equivalent and as such I'm having a hard time getting things set up the way they were. I've got most of it (took me a while to get videos...

Possible to use an Audigy 2 card and enable onboard at the same time?

Hi all :) Ok so the situation is this. I currently use an Audigy 2 Platinum, and it's great, no problem. I have a set of Zalman Surround Headphones which are plugged into the 3 appropriate plugs at the back of the Audigy. However, I also use an RF audio/video transmitter to watch files...
