    Help needed with 7800GT

    I've got the same cpu, an agp 6800gt graphics card from xfx and also play most games at 1280 x 1024. I make sure that in my Nvidia control panel "Performance and Quality settings" the slider is set to high speed instead of high quality, to the left that is. I've used the auto overclock...

    Surround sound in media player?

    Probably, if there is such a program it will still be a poor sounding conversion. Enable SRS WOW when playing MP3's using media player, and it will already sound like surround audio. It's not much, I'll search the internet for such programs and get back to you when I find something...

    PC opens folders very slowly

    You should first try using the usual cleaning tools built into windows XP like disk defrag and disk cleaner. After that you could also use anti adware software, altough her computer might not have an internet connection now as you said, she had one before right? Her computer might not...

    Prince of Persia Sands of Time Card Emulation

    I can't help you with that emulator problem you're having but I can advise you a littlebit about graphics cards. An ATI radeon 9800 pro comes really cheap these days, and still is widely supported by a lot of today's games. It's hard to advise something if you don't know what kind of budget...

    I always wanted to do this!

    You think?! You'll probably end up developing claustrophobia in such a situation at that age :D

    What is the better route SLI or ATI Crossfire?

    SLI Remains Superior So why not recommend ATI's CrossFire? For starters, the whole external cable connector thing still really bugs a lot of users, it's nowhere near as elegant as SLI's implementation. And the fact that you have to pay more for the CrossFire Master Edition card than for the...

    Upgrading..

    That videocard is really good, but considering that there are already games being developed which'll support DX10 like Crysis it might not be such a good investement, but it really depends on what kind of games you'll want to play with it. If you just want blazing fast visuals on games of today...

    recommendations for dual chann ram

    Kingston and Corsair make good ram and Kingston sells ValueRam which is pretty good unless you're planning on overclocking it, since they're not built for that use. PC 3200 modules are good and the most populair, PC 4000 modules are also faster but cost much more. Both are available in...

    Did you actually click the link I provided in my post? It'll direct you to a productpage with led fans from Antec. Either way, other posters also mentioned some nice fans, most computer stores I know sell modding equipment too. Good luck

    Games are so realistic these days

    A dutch webstore says Bully's release Date is 31/05/2006, that's the PAL version, if you're living outside europe you'll probably have it much sooner than us. Greetings

    Fan issue - please help

    Antec has some nice fans available in different colors. I'm not sure, but fans with 3 pin connectors can all be monitored, 2 wires for power and 1 for reporting fan speeds. Someone with more knowledge should verify this to be sure. Greetings

    video card heat

    I don't know if an fx5200 has a temperature sensor, if it does you should be able to find a temperature monitoring option in the Nvidia control panel. Here's a link which directs you to another topic in this forum about overclocking Nvidia graphics cards. And it also contains the following...

    The latest Nvidia drivers include Mixed Vendor Support, so you just need the same type of card, not the same brand. Here's a website where you can find more info on that subject. Greetings,

    Too hot?

    Too bad those Zipzoomfly links give me a "page unavailble" error, maybe it's because I'm overseas instead of the US. Look for extra specifications on the notebook cooler's manufacturer websites if that Zipzoomfly doesn't provide that info. Maybe that's why it's cheaper? Less service means lower...
