  2. Hey I got mine working. This is what I did. I disabled the old drivers by going to the device manager. Then shut down. Next, I installed the new card, booted into safe mode and then installed the new drivers. It rebooted and Windows opened. Finally, I updated the drivers from Nvidia's site, now everythings working. Hope in someway this helps.
  3. I'm having the same problem with that same card. I sent it back to Newegg and they sent me another but I have the same problem. I'm running XP with an AMD 4400+
  4. Cable came before potatoes?
  5. who make it more standardized? or do you standard across distributions.. which will never happen, too many opinions. Windows its own standard(they even rebelled against ISO standards), Linux in most cases follows the RFC's and other international standards. The biggest Issue is hardware, in that case it with hardware that does not follow the standards. or there is no standard. I know people do not care when its the Hardware and not the OS, but we can vote with our money. I only buy hardware if they support Open Source or at least have a driver. This is hurting me in my recording studio as
  6. Don't get me wrong, I love XP. But after 6yrs and $6 billion in R&D, Microsoft has released a bloated, unfinished and limited compatible product. Instead of coming out with 6 different versions for hundreds of dollars, when they should have made a stable usable Home or Pro versions. It will take years for businesses to be able to integrated with their company programs. Where I work, people who have bought new laptops, have so many problems, that they end up having to wait to use a workstation in the office. I agree with you that Linux isn't the most user friendly. But if they get their "st

  8. This is weird. I just upgraded from a 3700+ Single-Core to a 4200+ Dual-Core. I won it in a bet. Spurs/Suns game 1. Go Spurs! Anyway, it's alot better CPU than the old one. I recommend it
  9. Thanks. How long would it be good for. It's a small case. So I can stack it on top of my Windows machine.
  10. What would make a decent Linux box. I want to run Ubuntu. I'm thinking about piecing on together. I am thinking an AMD 3200+, 1GB of RAM and a Nividia 7600. Would it work with stuff like beryl running?
  11. Q: Is chocolate bad for me? A: Are you crazy? HELLO Cocoa beans! Another vegetable. It's the best feel-good food around!! Does he take Medicaid?

  13. I had to go back to Nero 6 because Nero 7 never worked.
  14. I tried the 64 version, 6.10 but it won't install on this computer. It will load on my roommates computer.
  15. The joys of trying to destroy your daughters date. My brother raised me since I was little and was always overprotective. He freaked when I wanted to start dating. He has used most of these rules, plus other creative ways of assuring sabotage of my dates. Some of my favorites: 1) Having friends over for "gun cleaning" parties. 2) Same friends, asking to see a drivers license. Each taking their time to study it and memorize full names and addresses. 3) Start playing video games, watching sports, going to look at his car. Anything to get date to not go anywhere and "just hang out at the ho
  16. A friend gave me a Ubuntu 6.06 disc and showed me the basics. I know the disc works because we tried it on my roommates computer and it loaded. The problem is when I try to install it on my computer, it gets to the install screen but after you select the install the screen goes blank then reads something to the effect - Linux kernal unpacking. But it just stops there. The disc stops spinning and there is no HD activity. Before coming here I tried Google but can't really find anything. I'm thinking it might be a hardware issue with my AMD Athlon 64 CPU. I don't know. My system specs. are: AMD 3
  17. A woman accompanied her husband to the doctor's office. After the check-up, the doctor took the wife aside and said, "If you don't do the following, your husband will surely die". 1.Each morning, fix him a healthy breakfast and send him off to work in a good mood. 2.At lunch time, make him a warm, nutritious meal and put him in a good frame of mind before he goes back to work. 3.For dinner, fix an especially nice meal, and don't burden him with household chores. 4.Have sex with him several times a week and satisfy his every whim. On the way home, the husband asked

  19. Real Friends Are you tired of those asinine "friendship" poems with decent intentions, but never actually come close to reality? Well, here's a collection of promises that actually speak of true friendship. 1. When you are sad - I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad. 2. When you are blue - I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you. 3. When you smile - I will know you finally got laid. 4. When you are scared - I will rag on you about it every chance I get. 5. When you are worried - I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it coul

  22. TWENTY WAYS TO CONFUSE SANTA CLAUS 1. Instead of milk and cookies, leave him a salad, and a note explaining that you think he could stand to lose a few pounds. 2. While he's in the house, go find his sleigh and write him a speeding ticket. 3. Leave him a note, explaining that you've gone away for the holidays. Ask if he would mind watering your plants. 4. While he's in the house, replace all his reindeer with exact replicas. Then wait and see what happens when he tries to get them to fly. 5. Keep an angry bull in your living room. If you think a bull goes crazy when he sees a li
