  1. jaclaz, what you talk about is called 512-Byte Emulation (512e), I'm aware of it. "A hard disk that is configured with 4K physical sectors with 512-byte logical sectors, the so-called 512e, comes out. It is coupled with 512-byte conversion firmware so that the 4K physical sectors used in Advanced Format are translated into 8 traditional 512-byte logical sectors compatible with host computing systems." However - "The Windows versions supporting 512e hard disk are as follows: Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2". I don't see Windows XP on that list.

  2. To sell more DX12 graphic cards? I dunno. What I'm sure of, it doesn't need DX12 with those graphics, agree. DX9, at best.
  3. Very old disks (500GB and the such) have "usual" 512kb clusters, and the newer ones - "advanced format" with bigger clusters. And by that I mean physical, hardware clusters. EDIT, prolly the board isn't tailored well enough to work with the old ones, but could also be the firmware bug.
  4. No. Star Wars: Battlefront is a series of classic games that was launched in 2004. (twenty years ago!) In 2024 they just added an artificial block to fend off windows 7 and below. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars:_Battlefront https://store.steampowered.com/app/2446550/STAR_WARS_Battlefront_Classic_Collection/ That's why it makes sense to post here.
  5. STAR WARS: Battlefront Classic Collection Genres: Action, Shooter, First-person, Third-person, 3D Companies: Pandemic Studios, Aspyr Media Requires Windows 8 and above
  6. If it's a laptop, won't work due to the missing Optimus.
  7. Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VI REUNION, Genres: Action, RPG, Japanese Companies: Square Enix, TOSE CO., LTD. This game requires Windows 10 and up.
  8. Yes, I deliberately omitted column No. 3 from the Forbes article for obvious reasons you've just proved to be right. In fact, I even wanted to help you not to land up in a funny situation like this, that's why I didn't quote that column. In English, we have two absolutely different meanings for "famous" and "talented"! Fame has nothing to do with talent. There are a lot of famous folks on insta, it doesn't automatically make them talented or actors.
  9. You're right, Browsec is especially not recommended, for one example - it includes the infamous spying Yandex Metrica API plugin.
  10. Now the column No. 2 that specifically targets the main weak actors (which is my opinion, also): "2. Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya do their best, and it’s not enough." https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2024/03/03/the-5-biggest-problems-with-dune-part-2/?sh=16521e2613ce "Not enough" because they simply can't do better, if it's not "weak acting", "poor cast", "miscast", "misfitted actors", I don't know how else to translate it to you. And again, those are *not* "attacks", those are film critic reviews and personal opinions, you don't like them? Ignore, you don't have to reply to everything.
  11. OMG! Use the internet, see tons of negative reviews. Those are *not* "attacks", those are film critic reviews and opinions, you don't like them? Ignore, you don't have to reply to everything. Overall, nothing in that "C" grade film that deserves to be discussed that meticulously. "The 5 Biggest Problems With ‘Dune Part 2’" by Erik Kain. "1. The emotional connection does not connect." "4. Dune Part 2 is too long and too rushed at the same time. And it ends too abruptly." "5. The Harkonnens are just cartoon villains now." https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2024/03/03/the-5-biggest-problems-with-dune-part-2/?sh=16521e2613ce
  12. That's a very personal insult to everyone involved with MSFN. I don't agree with your offensive statement.
  13. @XPerceniolmade his "triple-posting" in a row because each film belongs to a different genre. 1 2 3 And no, @XPerceniol doesn't look like one of "only half of your accounts", in my opinion, but several others unnamed profiles are.
  14. Interesting, were the characters intentionally weak, or was it do to just poor script writing? https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/6r0dve/what_are_some_great_movies_with_intentionally/
  15. What is the definition of 'bad casting' in the context of film/TV? https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-definition-of-bad-casting-in-the-context-of-film-TV
  16. No, those all are written very differently, especially the last one - which is rather emphasising on the subject of time. The first one is by me, I still consider only the main actors cast to be questionable. The second one is by another member, where he thinks the whole cast is poor. I'm very sorry, you don't feel the English language like it was your mother tongue, it's very obvious, even to the naked eye of the topic reader. And I'm not trying to "imply" anything, I'm laying out my personal, very obvious observations.
  17. Somewhere around late 1.5x versions.
  18. Seems very logical since it's a Dutch tradition, and New York was founded by the Dutch. New Amsterdam at that time.
  19. I was just making sure. From what knowledgeable people tell, that series of drivers can't be modded due to the fact that 3050ti's BIOS recognition model is missing from the driver files. Inf modding won't help.
  20. Why they sent you their German version notification, then? Probably you used a VPN located in Germany?
  21. I shouldn't trust Brave these days. I discovered it requests "GetFirmwareType", GetFirmwareType - "Retrieves the firmware type of the local computer". https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winbase/nf-winbase-getfirmwaretype Why would a browser that declares itself "privacy oriented" want to know your exact firmware? Yes, it's for only one purpose, to bind your account to the PC you're on. More and more sophisticated tracking.
  22. Hadn't Supermium declare itself portable? It would then be able to hook up with it from its root folder.
  23. You're indeed a very lucky one! Many users report the spiking issues, esp. when using browsers, so it's not only Supermium, but I thought win32 would be able to somehow fix the issue. "I'm having the same issue with a 3070. Spikes to max all the time while idling or browsing the internet." https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/user/747572/
