Nicely spotted! The western digital green was on for 5 quid less too - in fact they have a few things a good amount cheaper - added an antec 1200 case, some arctic silver & a high def media player/enclosure on to the lot and it only just breached 300 squid. Never heard of them so hope they are...

When you say it barely fit in, what was it fouling against?

I'm afraid personally I have only got any in depth knowledge of Nokia's Symbian OS's, i think that for this sort of question unless one of the guys here happens to know you'd be best off on a dedicated mobile developer forum. Best of luck.

Ok first step would be a bigger case - looks cramped as hell - the cabling needs a good tidy up too - then better after market fans as opposed to those cheap kinds. (the bigger case would allow for larger while slower fans also) Is that stuck under a desk somewhere? Find a good open space with...

Welcome to HWF! No I doubt it, certainly not without a pretty clever third party application. And what would be the point, it'd be so small it would be pretty useless for normal day to day stuff. Necessity breeds demand an all that jazz. Thinking about it even it if it could be done (over...

Sounds like your the admins for your university have blocked the ports the game uses. Can any of your mates using the same connection play?

And you've rotated all the different ram sticks you have into that first slot to check each of them are ok? If so then its kinda gotta be the motherboard at fault then - weird one though.

I'd have to agree even for ATI, maybe a faulty card - strange that it can handle games ok though, maybe get it RMA'd and get yourself over to good ol' reliable Nvida :)

Can we get the rest of your computer specks too. Have you checked your idle/load temperatures recently? (Speedfan can do this - in sig)

Yet another ATI driver issue - do you think we should start keeping a tally of these vs Nvidia ^_^ I don't think you need aero running for smooth playback of media - it is just the frilly bits of vista.

That graphics card is really quite poor for games out now let alone in 2010 I'm afraid. That would definitely be the first thing to upgrade.

Did you check the voltages are set correctly for your brand of ram as I suggested?

You mean in 06? I thought that vantage was vista (dx10 only)

It could be a number of things I guess - perhaps that update or maybe something else. Have you been fully uninstalling and then re-installing the nvidia driver package every time you swap the cards. While often it seems to be fine while changing cards on a full re-installation of the driver...

Well if the drive is now in a 'raw' state you are going to need to get it out and into another machine ideally and run some data recovery software on it - this may not be possible with the drive in 'raw' and may require a quick format to NTFS - just make sure you don't do a full format if that...

Yeah this is certainly starting to smell very motherboard-esq. Have you checked the board for capacitor plague - interesting thing - nearly did my thesis on it: Capacitor plague - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I leapfrogged about half the league table last night - don't be counting you chickens so quick! ^_^

Very cool, crazy 1 day shoot and 2 years post production - that guy knows his stuff!

UPDATE: I found that it was the display window using 100% on core 4 of the CPU, closing it leaves my CPU happy to do other things while the GPU carries on doing all the hard work. UPDATE 2: I now have it configured and using the two cores on the card independently - is a huge fiddle/hassle but...

Hey guys, thought I'd alert you to this (you may already know but I just came across it) If you have an CUDA enabled nvidia GPU 9 series or better you can use a beta version of the windows client that folds using primarily the graphics card - which should be leagues ahead of any CPU based...
