Nforce Dolby Digital Question

I currently have a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz soundcard hooked to my Sony Dolby Digital receiver using the digital output. It plays DVDs as true Dolby Digital, however Mp3s and stuff are two channel through that output. No soundcard out now can encode to Dolby Digital and send it out the SPDIF...

Turtle Beach Santa Cruz 61.00 shipped

If you are sick of Creative Labs crummy support then do yourself a favor and jump on this deal. Turtle beach has had excellent driver support all along on this card. It was one of the few companies that let you download beta drivers form their site when Windows XP was still called Whistler. The...

Win XP good and all.. but..

I can almost guarantee that if you hook the printer up and have it on while installing that it will work automatically. GTXP has a single main problem wiht Windows XP. If you have MORE then 256 Ram it may cause problems so stick with 256 until they figure it out.

Windows XP pricing: Home/Pro Upgrade - $99/$199, Home/Pro Full - $199/$299

I know of at least one game that was broken under 2k and works fine on XP. Black and White had totally messed up unplayable textures under 2000 on my system and now works fine under XP. Undying runs MUCH smoother under XP. I have no idea why this is but it seems to be running much better then 98...

Windows XP RC1, Microsoft did it right this time......

The combination that is usually problematic is SBlive and a VIA AMD Athlon system. If you are running Intel far lower chance of having a problem with SBlive.

XP - How bad is the performance hit?

Actually I just switched to 12.41 Drivers instead of 12.40 that come with RC1 and the speed boost was significant. Under Quake III and UT I got MORE frames then under ME. I fired up Undying 10x7x32 with full details cranked through the roof and it ran much smoother then under ME. That is with a...

WinXP and Voodoo 3 3000

Unfortunately noone is really responsible for supporting your Voodoo 3000 anymore. Using it with xp is really pushing your luck it might cause all kinds of problems. You can get a nice Hercules Prophet II MX card like I have for under 100 dollars now. It is a great card for the money and it...

PLAY PLAYSTATION ONE /w LCD & ADAPTER IN YOUR CAR FOR $174

The LCD is usable with anything including a dvd player or whatever you could use it with a Dreamcast if you wanted to. I really doubt that Sony is gonna price their screen at 40 bucks think about it how can you sell an lcd for 40 bucks even a small one it is impossible.
