Never knew that Nvidia made media players...

[ripken204]

well what did u tell me before, completely forgot

[ripken204]

audio and video is now working!!!

gta san andreas works too.

that means for any of you that have a dfi nforce4 board and an nvidia video card, that this is fully compatible with your system

and winamp does work just fine, before i was just using the winamp from my main OS. now i just installed it on the xpe os and it works perfectly.

guild wars

city of heros

and these usefull apps

openoffice or equvelent

itunes (ipod support)

gaim (or trillan, any multi protical im client)

good to know this project is advancing

[ripken204]

You keep mentioning nVidia. Any chance us ATI folks will be supported in XPGE?

[gdogg]

of coarse ati cards are supported. just have to be tested

Well...you see...Ripken and me here are both Nvidia fans . Until I get a beta tester with an ATI card (and not a 9200 either), ATI cards will only be "potentially" supported, meaning it's possible, but we still have to implement it. So if you have an ATI card, or you're just interested in testing, IM me on AIM (check profile).

[ripken204]

warcraft II and starcraft work

and pretty much all new games will require me to reinstall them so that will take a while, but ill get it done...

[spazmire11]

k now how bout some recently aquicred games?

farcry

call of duty

call of duty 2

im sure ill think of more games in my next list to grill you on but still

thx for responding

[ripken204]

need for speed most wanted does work! what also sweet is that i have my xbox controller hooked up to my computer i have the drivers for that install with windows. using a controller for that game is soo much better than a keyboard.

i have cod2 but none of the other, if i can get my hands on a copy of farcry then ill test it out

half life 2 also works

[gdogg]

so, half life 2 with steam is working?

if so, the Counter Strike Source, Day of Defeat Source and that new half life will all work also

since they are all just mods, of the same game , half life 2
