there's a good chance that i'm mistaken but i applied it and it now seems like in XP opposed to several days ago when uT just couldnt connect to a certain number of peers in a good amount of time.. now it looks perfect.. it's all up to cmedia and ati now.. thx Spooky

right.. but slows u down making all those connections..

just like WBHoenig said, it's possible.. u can get the content of the site with <? $f=file('http://google.com/'); for ($i=0; $i<count($f); $i++) $content.=$f[$i]; ?> then u just need some regular expressions and stuff like that to get the info from the tables.. i've done a similar thing for a torrent tracker system which gets each torrent's hash, uploader, size, name, category by having access to the html code only.. it's not impossible..

i think it's normal.. it does the same here.. but it hibernates fine..

readyboost devices dont serve as another piece of memory.. they're just used as a "faster for small I/O" pagefile..

it's not just that i think.. readyboost helps windows to reduce the frequent HDD access.. so people with more RAM can still find it useful

the same thing happened to a month ago.. i was reducing the amount of active services and thought software licensing is useless, so ..

there's no patched tcpip.sys file for vista..

10 half-open concurrent connections is too little in todays world.. 30 - bearable, 50 - why not, 100 - just perfect, 10 - ffs, it's not 1980

i like this one: http://62.253.162.11/burnatonce/misc/fontfix.png the best, except for the overlapping http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?act=At...st&id=15825 looking at that makes me think that your settings are not bad too, although not much different from the default..

u could've just said "i hate windows, i hate microsoft, i hate the world..", u hater!

yeah Spooky, 40% of the time (or even more) my hard drive is reading something.. it never stops.. when i close firefox, it frees 100-200 megs and vista gobbles ram another 10 minutes.. my PC usage is pretty active, closing/opening stuff all the time, so it looks like it never stops..

u were.. it wont..

it doesnt get the job done.. try CS1.6 in opengl, and it says: "this mode is not supported, going down to software mode"

kartel, that's with superfetch disabled, right? there's no way u can get that by default

try running CS1.6 in opengl mode instead of direct3d or sth like that to see if it works..

lol give us at least 2 screenshots showing the same thing with and without the patch so that we could clearly see a difference.. right no, i would vote for NO.. segoe UI looks like a nice font to me.. i've been using it a lot since several months..

Maybe but that takes 44% of your 2.2GHz processor. that's his memory usage.. it takes 18% of his CPU though..

i'll try to be short as i'm not in the mood of writing novels right now: 1. superfetch sux - great idea, poorly done.. 2. inconsistencies, a bit too heavy 3. no tcpip patch, they've messed everybody with their opengl/d3d stuff.. opengl working as an emulation based on 3d or something like that.. ffs.. 4. no easy way to share your files over the network, just like in XP 5. it could've been done better.. just like superfetch 6. never had a problem with that.. after all, vista is great except for these shortcomings..

u could've copied the links.. anyways, it's unusable.. it's created just to show the others what vista's DWM is capable of and how can it be utilized..

what i immediately saw is that radeon 9550 is now supported what's new: nothing.. same s***.. no opengl, no crossfire will waste time upgrading: no, not before opengl drivers are released anyways, thx for the news.. it's a pity u bought an ati card again, kartel..

his law is about to expire in 2010 or so i heard.. i may be wrong about the year though

LeVeL, your comment on superfetch was lame.. most of the linux distros cant run on 32mb.. in fact, they're heavier than windows.. 32mb? lol.. linux is more aggressive at caching than windows, so if u give it 4 gigs it will make use of them the best way, pretty much like vista does..

Fatality's looks most usable to me..

i agree with u on superfetch.. nice in theory but still sux.. in an effort to cache everything i might use it doesnt stop using the hard-drive.. when i start a game it has to free several hundred megabytes for it.. when i stop the game, it has to cache everything again.. and constantly using the hard-drive is not the worst part (the sound is annoying but, ..), it degrades performance.. if i start an application at the moment of superfetching, it seems like superfetching is getting a higher (or equal) priority to it, and it slows it down.. couldnt have they figured a way of determining when is the PC "idle", so that superfetch can gobble memory? even i can do that.. with their advanced PC monitoring apps bundled, they know the hard-drive's utilization, the lan-card's utilization, etc.. that's just lame
