Networking Support thread for the unemployed: Spring 2014

This is a huge shot in the dark but I may as well try. I'm going to be graduating next year with a BS in biomedical engineering with an emphasis biochemical engineering from ASU. I'm looking to gain industry experience beginning this summer. If there are any opportunities for me to pursue in AZ...

Vista SP1 Final - Available to the Public Now ?

My boot time actually increased after installing SP1. I haven't experienced any performance increase (that I can tell) or observed any new features that make me look forward to SP1 RTM.

2x2GB or 4x1GB?

Im sure all of those will work well. Personally, I have two sets of the corsair XMS2 (8 gigs total). Running my G0 Q6600 @3520 MHz. The performance is pretty amazing and I have not had any problems so far. (using an IP35 pro)

Not to hijack this thread or anything but I'm kinda new to intel cpu's and overclocking... I just got my G0 q6600 from newegg - got it to 3.5 @1.41 vcore. I cant seem to make it to 3.6 despite pushing to 1.48v. My temps are fine, at 3.5 im idling at 35 - 38 - 32 - 36 (coretemp). At 1.48v i...

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl

I just istalled the game, i get pretty crappy performance as soon as I go outside with dynamic lighting on. Is this normal? It's practically unplayable on my rig: FX-60, 4 GB pc3200, 8800gts 640 (latest drivers), x-fi- though I am running vista ultimate.

Vista's sleep and SLI

It happens to me in both XP and vista? :( Does anyone know of a possible work around for this? I did a search in the ms KB and found this article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937500/en-us I wonder if this hotfix would help my problem but i doubt it as it only happens when SLi is...

Vista's sleep and SLI

The sleep function is by far one of my favorite features in vista. The problem is, I just cant get it to work properly when SLi is enabled (works fine in non-SLi mode). When my computer wakes from sleep mode I see a black screen for about 30 seconds until the vista log-in screen shows up. I...

Vista Ultimate upgrade worth 195?

Im still running on XP though I did buy the full retail version of vista ultimate when it was 60% off at closing CUSA stores. I'll use it when my SLi works and creative actually releases a good driver for my x-fi plat.

8800GTS a worthwhile upgrade?

It feels as if my graphics cards are the limiting factor at 1920x1200. There is definitely room for improvement in some games. Currently, im running an FX-60 with 4 GB ram, so im going to hold off on the cpu upgrade until next round. So my question is will i see much of an improvement...

Sound Blaster X-fi Vista Driver Issues

I dont know about the regular xfi, but if you have the platinum version like me you can kiss your audio console switcher good bye. Vista creative drivers are in an absolute piss poor condition- I'm greatful i can hear sound at all. Almost all the software that worked in XP is borked in vista...

Windows Vista, worse than Windows Me?

Vista Memory

go with the 1.5, though i think that's still not enough ram for vista. You wont notice the difference in timings. Edit: I wasn't happy with vista performance even at 2 gb, which is why im up to 4 now, and I couldn't be happier.
