I really like this new gigabyte mobo... I wanna keep it, but I'm still going to ask asus to replace or fix the asus mobo. Cause now with win 98 running on it, it tells me win xp should work also. I read a post where someone just took the hsf retention bracket off the asus mobo and used an exacto knife to cut a little channel between the 2 solder points that were accidently making contact and it solved his problem. It no longer shorted and the cpu was able to pass the self test. @chems, although it's been rough lately with all the pc troubles, I also feel good in a crazy way that

welcome back there chems, hope you had a nice vacation.. wtg on those exams. I have managed to make some progress w/ that little project you left me off with, it would've been done by now if it weren't for all the troubles w/ the new pc. My appologies. My friend jhereg told me it's possible there's a corrupted file on the xp cd he gave me. So that might be what's stopping me from installing it. He had me try installing win '98 and that worked fine. He's sending me another xp cd so I'll be able to try it again later on this week.

better late than never I always say. Chems should be back today actually. an update to my ongoing computer nightmare: I can get into the bios but I can't install windows xp due to my ram being incompatible w/ this new gigabyte board. Someone figured out the problem w/ the Asus board. They removed the heatsink retaining bracket.. , it's that square piece of plastic that the retaining arms hook into, and found a solder point hadn't been cleaned during the manufacturing process. This leads to it being smushed down when you apply the pressure of a heatsink fan. It flattens out and hi

hey stalker, just cause I'm of a curious nature, could you tell me how that 2nd word is pronounced in english? Does it sound like an english word. Like I've heard what sounds like danka shay or danka shane.. is that how sehr should sound?

Danke sehr stalker , hope I said that right..hehehe

I'm a noob when it comes to computer building, a friend who's an IT specialist actually built the pc for me at my house while I looked on. He made all the necessary settings in the bios. I don't think he adjusted the memory and cpu settings but I could be wrong. Cause when we ran sisoft sandra, the memory was showing up as pc 3200 which was incorrect. It's 3700. But I think by default, the bios usually starts out w/ conservative settings. Anyway, it wasn't anything that my friend or I did wrong, it's the mobo. I know there's a lot of people using the asus p4c800 and haven't had any t

expecting a new mobo today. Let's hope this one works better than the 1st one so I can get back to work on this mod. It's a Gigabyte GA-8knxp for all you computer builders out there. The the 1st one was the Asus p4c800. It ran great after the pc was built. I was very impressed.. until I shut it down and found that it wouldn't start back up again.

It's the new pc, monitor works fine with the old computer. Would the failure of a hard drive cause me to not get a signal on the monitor?

A friend came over and built my pc on Sat. It was an all day affair. Finally had it up and running with all the hardware installed and the os installed. He then downloaded some bench marking software. Sisoft sandra and future mark 3d. The score on sandra was in the ball park compared to similar systems. score = 5765 I ran the burn in on sandra over night. This afternoon I stopped it after 14 hrs. I clicked around in xp checking out the menus and stuff.. my 1st time seeing xp. I shut down the pc. I set up a kvm. Started my old computer and the kvm worked fine. When I star

It say's "Hopefully Shiver and Jack will keep the thread bumped and give you any info on there little bits. "

A friend of mine came over yesterday and put together my new computer for me. It was an all day affair, the system is pretty complex. Afterwards we ran some benchmarks. On future mark it scored 5765 which was pretty much in the ball park compared to other systems. I set up a kvm today and everything has turned ugly now. The new computer only makes a loud pitched noise and won't boot, no video signal as well. Can't even enter the bios.

sorry, chems is the boss... but I can tell you that the layout of the map is suited well in my opinion for not only sp missions but mp as well and for me, as far as maps go, it's going to be better than anything else I've done so far but this is only my 2nd real map. Chems came up with the design and I'm just trying to match what he had in mind as well as possible, I've tried to embelish it in some ways as well..

I see, so, yesterday, when you said you had a virus, you meant your computer? Here I am thinking you're sick. Btw, the new cpu is for the new pc I'm building. Possibly will be working on it this weekend. Once It's done I can return to working on the map.

ah... I thought redsun had been released. Thanks and good luck with the project.

ah! so there's actually a word for what I've been doing for the past 7 years.

I've been chatting in chat rooms and posting on message boards for about 7 yrs now and it's very embarrassing to say that after all this time I still don't understand what that term "bump" means.

Harntrox, normally isn't you that has the responsibilty of contacting those modders whose work you wish to use? I've seen other modders propose similar kinds of projects and make similar announcements saying unless you contact me saying you don't want your work used I will assume I have your consent and will credit you. Other modders would then jump in warning that the modder needs to contact those whose work he wishes to use because it's not the content creators responsibility to know what other modders are planning to use their work for. It doesn't involve me, but if it

just to expand on deleyt's very detailed help, regarding the boolean part of the operation, you can do this with textured objects. I did it with a tree that was already textured and took a smaller tree that was textured and booleaned it to the larger tree. It worked fine. edit: When I say tree I mean trunk, I didn't boolean anything that was grouped.

patience everyone...

Me? no way...I suck... but maybe someday, yes...someday NAAAA!!!!!!! What the hell was I thinkin!? :punk:

starship troopers hasn't been released yet so none of us can get it but you'll need ghost recon to play it. chems, the special thing that you're talking about, is that the thing you showed me? The one where I told you I said "Oh! Oh! Oh! WoW!" If so, then I think everyone's gonna be in Shock & Awe when they see what it is... I meant to tell you that earlier but forgot. I have to say , you are really amazing, I wouldn't be surprised to see you get offered a job with a game company...and to think you've only been at it a short while.

thanks rocky.

rocky, can u look up how MW4 Mercs "Rates" on the system .. thanks,

do americans use that word? I've never heard it before. why is chems laughing at me ?

nice job so far.
