    COD:Advanced Warfare................

    COD Ghosts was a horrible PC port (even for a COD game) -- the stuttering/ lag etc...never got fixed. Total rip-off. Can anyone playing advanced warfare confirm for me that this years iteration does not suffer from these issues?...or is it another badly done port? I did see TB's youtube...

    Building old computer for 1990s games

    I keep a Win98 box -- all on vintage hardware. CPU is an AMD 64 2200+ something or other. Mobo was based on a Via K8t800 chipset. Using the fastest (and last) AGP card supported under Win 98 ---> the ATI x850 xt. using SB Live sound card with a gameport. Using a GDM FW 900 --- all...

    Man, Call of Duty Ghosts really sucks

    I gave the game a try running it on a pair of sli'd titans and a 2600k@ 4400 with 8 gigs of ram --- the game ran like total crap with frequent lag, stutters etc... regardless of drivers, game settings --- single card or SLI --- worthless garbage. What little I did get to experience of the actual...

    TiTAN and DSR? (under Windows Vista)

    never had any problems with Win Vista/64 -- not worthwhile for me to upgrade to 7 and don't like what I heard about 8.1. will probably go for Win 10 next year. If DSR is unsupported in Win Vista, not a big loss.

    TiTAN and DSR? (under Windows Vista)

    The issue for me is that I don't think DSR is supported under Windows Vista --- I think that's why I don't have DSR enabled with my Titans?....but I can't find any documentation about this from Nvidia.

    TiTAN and DSR? (under Windows Vista)

    Just to let folks here know---> According to some posters over at the nvidia forums it seems that DSR is not supported under Vista (please don't start ranting about using Vista, I know already) --- but I didn't see Vista mentioned as a limiting factor with respect to DSR in the release notes...

    TiTAN and DSR? (under Windows Vista)

    did both as suggested above --- nothing worked, must have been a bad driver install. will reinstalll and see how that goes. Thanks for the tips.

    TiTAN and DSR? (under Windows Vista)

    I thought the most recent driver (344.48) rolled out DSR support for cards below the latest 9xx series. Yet, after installing the driver I don't see any options for DSR in either the NV control panel (general or program specific settings) or Gforce experience (where you supppsedly may have the...

    Dumb things that PC games should not do by 2013

    absolutely agree -----> QTE's are horrible --- the other thing is pathetic scripting (mostly seen with COD and a few other FPS's) wherein passing an invisible barrier causes enemies to either stop spawning or continue to spawn until the next line is crossed.

    Backup software for Windows 98?

    Yes, I have been following that project with interest. However, at the end of the day I thought it would just be easier to build a legacy box as I had so many old parts available including an ATI 850XT PE AGP card --kind of hard to find (with an AGP interface). Fastest video card supported...

    Ok, thanks...I'll give it a go - and I do see that it supports FAT32, so maybe it will work.

    Backup software for Windows 98?

    Thanks lxskllr...I was unfamiliar with Clonezilla. One question though-----> it seems that using Clonezilla you cannot restore an image to a smaller disc (known limitation), however, what I am not clear on is can I "image" the primary disc (40 gb, with ~ 7 gigs of data) to a smaller disc...

    Backup software for Windows 98?

    I recently built a legacy box for Windows 98 (for a few select old games). Does anyone now of any currently available software (free or paid) that is compatible with Windows 98 that I can use to make an image/backup (similar to Ghost or Acronis True Image)?...thanks.

    Ubisoft wants to improve relationship with PC community

    Yeah you need both. It was listed in the requirements so I knew -- I just assumed they had worked this stuff out. For most Uplay (for those who got the game through Steam) just pops up with little annoyance and you go right to your game. But for those who run into problems you are left...

    Ubisoft wants to improve relationship with PC community

    Ubi can eff off. I have avoided buying anything from them for years due to their draconian drm. But after all the glowing reviews for FC3 and that they allowed uplay in offline mode I bought FC3 through Steam -- played for an hour. Now unable to get the game working again due to Uplay issues...

    Quick (n00b) Question About SLI

    Does the Nvidia control panel that shows the installed programs have to recognize the game as being installed for SLI to work or is SLI automatically enabled with you start the game/.exe? Just asking because some (all?) Steam games don't seem to show up under installed programs in the control...

    Dirt 3 flickering?

    Playing on vista 64 bit with 580's sli'd The actual game plays fine under dx11. However, during the menu's I get occasional flickering (damn annoying) -- the game is through Steam and is fully patched (I think there was an earlier update that addresed a related problem?). Anyone else get...

    A computer desk for a GDM FW 900?

    I do have a 27" TN panel for "modern" games -- but still fire up the ol' GDM from time-to time for win 98 games. Sure there are plenty of desks/tables etc... but nearly none of them post weight capacity (and everythign these days is built for lap tops and LCD panels) and I don't want to pull the...

    A computer desk for a GDM FW 900?

    I am having a very difficult time finding a desk and/or table --- of any sort --- that I can use for a GDM FW-900 (weighs about 98 lbs). I need one without impediment in the foot-well (to place pedals for driving sims and/or leg room). I had been using a round (very) sturdy wooden dining...

    Just finished Bad Company 2

    I only play SP -- I thought the campaign was great ---and still replay it once in a while. Hope thay make a sequel -- however, I can't believe these were the same guys that offered the SP in BF3 --- the SP in BF3 was a steaming pile of QTE and just completely sucked. I hope BFBC2 has an SP...

    Dell U3011 and non native resolution

    For those who own this monitor how is it at displaying non native resolutions? In particular I'm interested in 2048 x 1536 (yes I know it is a 4 x 3 resolution) -- but can it display @ 2048 x 1536? Just curious as I have an old GDM FW 900 that can display at this resolution, but the only...

    After my experience with Origin with BF3 I will never purchase another game that uses Origin --- already uninstalled and deleted BF3. Stopped buying games from Ubi for their draconian DRM, looks like EA may be next.

    Should I add a third GTX 580 (1.5)? 2 in SLI is amazing, but..,

    I too was recently thinking of adding a 3rd 580. I have had 580's sli'd x2 for the past 6 months and they absolutely rock (I game at 1080p). However, the scaling across 3 gpu's and the occasional problems that might crop up gave me pause. The second reason is that I upgraded from...

    Old AGP card nostalgia - which one is faster?

    if it matters --- if you want Win 98 support --- the fastest AGP card was the X850 xt pe. There were faster AGP cards, but none had Win 98 drivers/support.

    Is it bad...

    Buck up mate --- don't feel bad. for what it is worth last night I played "viper racing" (from 1998) on an old Win 98 legacy box as opposed to BF3 on an oc'd 2600k, 580 sli rig. Old games = good!

    Call of Duty MW3

    I think on the PC you might be able to disable the music for MW3 (at least for sp) by renaming the miles folder to "dismiles" --- have not tried that yet though to see if it works. But that would be a big plus for the PC version (assuming you want to even bother with the sp portion of the game).

    Anyone else disappointed with BF3?

    I was dopey enough to buy BF3 for the SP --- the SP really is a steaming pile of @#$%. Major disappointment.

    Got my GTX 580 :-)

    Actually, I feel as if I definitely got my money's worth with a pair of sli'd gigabyte 580's SOC. Everything, just plain works (yes, there are exceptions) -- but a way better ownership experience from a pair of HIS 5970's crossfired that gave me nothing but headaches --- please note, I'm not in...

    So did EA pull a UBI with BF3?

    Just tried the following: Origin does indeed need to phone home first. Only then can you go offline. Once you are offline you can physically disconnect from the internet and play the game. At least Steam gives you the option to start up in offline mode...so I think EA has pulled a bit of...

    So did EA pull a UBI with BF3?

    Still not fully convinced though that the answer is no in that I think Origin has to phone home first and then it lets you go offline? --- not sure about that yet. But that would still be UBI-like.

    So did EA pull a UBI with BF3?

    Actually, as I noted above, it appears that you can play SP "offline" -- at least I could after re-installing Origin and the game this morning. Now I can bypass Battlelog and go right to the SP campaign (offline). However, one thing I have not tried yet is yanking out my connection while the...

    So did EA pull a UBI with BF3?

    UPDATE: This morning, I reinstalled Origin and BF3 --- they fixed this (SP/offline issue). I can now start Origin, go "offline" and when I then click on the game icon/launcher, the game will, by default, bypass battlelog (yeah!) and go right to the SP campaign. This was not working...
