  1. 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 :)

  2. 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

  3. 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.

  4. 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 :)

  5. "if it can be programmed it can be cracked"

    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:

  6. 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

  7. Here are some of the Benchmarking comparisons that Extreme Tech posted:

    The god dam thing has a 256MB (DDR) memory output, man this card is impressive :)

  8. 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

  9. 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 :)
