Dam sweet looking case Lezend, like the others guys mentioned your logo is phat!!

Yeah happy B'day Rick

Dont know of a fix for this problem yet, although I did read an article that M$ were looking at a SP to fix the way OE defaults/opens emails. Without OE automatically opening them as soon its highlighted, giving you the option to choose what to do with unknown mail.

Congrats Xper, good to see that we will have a new member to take over from you in the future

LOL to both....Hahahaaaa

Happy Birthday FthrJACK, make it a great one

Dam now I'm going to have to go through them all individually

I get that sometimes as well, says that there are this many new posts & X number of threads. But when I "Click here to view all new posts", I get the same messege as Conan.....not blocking any cookies from this site

Happy Birthday BW, have a good one

Yeah your banner isnt blending into the main background, only slightly thou. the banner needs to be a little darker

You should have a look at the new Volcano 9 designed for AMD Athlon XP up to 2600+ and Intel Socket 370 & AMD Socket 462 I like the Volcano 7+, check it out here Volcano 7+ Heatsink If you really want to get serious go for a Zalman's CPU Cooler, something like a CNPS3100-Plus series Zelman Coolers

What version of FS2002 are you running, and did you choose to install maximum or minimum install. When you first start FS2002, choose settings at the bottom> make sure that you have enable joystick on, and then choose to calibrate j/s. This should take you to game contollers box. If your getting all this then it should be fine, I didnt worry about updating my software for my sidewinder as I have the same compatiblity issue that you have with the software under xp. let us know how you go

Im running a Dragon Orb 3 fan, in my system...If my cpu got that hot I think I would freeek and think that it was going to melt or something. The max temperature for those AMD cpu is about 90'c anyway.

I have a sidewinder precision pro j/s and have used it successfully in Flight simulator 2002. Mine is connected via usb, and was set as default straight after installing FS2002. Although my software that came with the j/s isnt compatible under xp. You should still get it working without the additional software. Have you tried it in other games, with the same j/s. Have you checked that properties of it under control panel>game controllers make sure that its listed in there.

Yeah I got sick of having it change over everytime I checked my emails using OE. Changed the configs in both so that only MSN messenger would sign on and start everytime I logged in, but couldnt find a work-around for OE so I just went back to normal messenger

Your a sick sick man XPerties,LOL now this threads getting interesting

Never heard of it either, looks good though keep us posted FthrJACK as to what its like

Ditto to that, I dont see the point in wasting all this time on research into how to stop programs from being hacked/cracked. When at the end of the day they will still make their money on a high percentage of users buying it. They still make money on bundling it with other hardware/software etc..Its only a smaller percentage of users who use or obtain it illegally so they should just give up on producing anti-piracy protections that end up being cracked before it hits the market:huh:

I did the same with my old Geforce 2 MX 400 card, the crappy old fan just croaked one day and I was stuck so I picked up a Crystal Orb fan and stuck it on. They work like a treat and run very smooth, so Im thinking of putting it on my mobo to replace my northbridge fan which is starting to make some annoying noises

Here are some of the Benchmarking comparisons that Extreme Tech posted: Radeon 9700 Performance Settings - 1024x768x32 with 4x FSAA NHL 2002: Geforce 4 TI 4600 - 100 Radeon 9700 - 89 Dungeon Siege: GF4 TI 4600 - 100 Radeon 9700 - 132 Jedi Knight 2: GF4 TI 4600 - 100 Radeon 9700 - 123 UT 2003 !!!: GF4 TI 4600 - 100 Radeon 9700 - 198 The god dam thing has a 256MB (DDR) memory output, man this card is impressive

LOL thats whacked pia

Sounds abit like Guard IE, does it have a lot of the functionality of guard ie. I will give it a try and see if its better then Meaya thanks

Yeah just call M$ up and they send one out to you as long as it is a legit copy, I didnt have to supply a receipt of purchase or anything when I damaged mine, they just took my details from my activation records and sent me another copy within a week

How do you use that mouse Rick, just looking at gives me RSI of the thumb. Ive tried a friends a couple of times, and its like trying to p*** after sex....everywhere but in the bowl. I guess its just a coordination thing and patience, seems too much work for me

Happy Birthday again Sed, all the best for your 21st :bigok
