    Which Driver for Radeon 9800 Pro?

    Omega's are overrated IMHO... 1. Use latest Catalyst (6.3 atm). Use only the display driver from ATI (no CCC). You could use an older version of the display driver with a card like the 9800 Pro but the performance benifit will be marginal to non existent, check this link from AT (it covers...

    Two replies? And one of them about a dead dog? Thought people would open bottles of champagne and dance naked in the streets... Well I'm gonna party like it's 1999! Wohooo!!! The only thing that could be better than this would be Monkey Island 5...

    Sam & Max fans, cross your fingers...

    I don't get LucasArts these days. They pull the plug on a game that probably would sell extremely well. But they don't hesitate to realese one crappy Star Wars game after another. Jedi Knight 2 was pretty good in the day but most of the recent titles just doesn't reach that high quality one has...

    The first review at IMDB sums up the movie in a perfect way.

    most essential 80's film

    though one... If we're talking american movies it is "Platoon" as far as I'm concerned. If we include international movies my vote goes to "Idi i Smotri" also known as "Come and See". http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091251/

    Which source of computer information do you trust?

    hehe... I noticed your presence on these boards a while ago. Almost the same strange nickname. What are the odds?

    Chemistry and Physics

    Can't speak about chemistry but I know a thing or two about physics... If you want something that resembles a university level you got to begin with math, algebra and calculus (Linear algebra... by David C Lay is quite good a starting point). Simple as that. It sucks, I know (been there done...

    ER-4P lacks bass.

    When I got my etys I experienced the same thing. As most ety newbies I shoved them as far in my eardrums as the would go. Still no bass and mediocre sound. The key to good sound is alignement. It is difficult to get it right especially when the rubber tips (I assume you use them and not the...

    Amplifier hiss

    It's not a detatcheble power cord. And it doesn't carry any earth. Normal swedish power outlets are non-earthed (of course power outlets in kitchens etc are earthed). I've checked the insides of the amp and nothing seems lose. Since I don't have a circuit diagram I just don't know where to...

    Amplifier hiss

    There's something strange going on here... I listened (again) to all inputs. The hiss was present on all of them. I have a cd player, soundcard and a dvd-player connected to my amp. The hiss was slightly less on the cd input. I disconnected everything connected to the amp. The hiss was...

    Amplifier hiss

    This concerns my stereo amplifier but I thought I could use the immense knowledge of the Head-Fi community non the less. Today I noticed a hiss coming from my left speaker. It's barely audible at low/mid volume levels but increasing the volume to mid/high levels makes the hiss extremly...

    The Fog of War

    Recently attended the annual movie festival in my town. I saw a lot of great movies (both fiction and non fiction). But the Fog of War was the cream of the crop. One of the best documentaries I've ever seen. Highly recommended!

    Why aren't there (or are there?) decent earbuds or canalphones for under $50?

    I own EX70, MX500 and E888(gold). In my mind there's no competition between these phones. The E888 win hands down! (Although bassheads might like the EX70). There's a bit of hassle to buy the E888's, but it's worth the extra effort. Bluetin has 'em for $41.6 + p&p. So you should be below the...

    Monitor setup...

    Arrgghhh! Anyone got any advice on how to setup a monitor. I have a Samsung 959NF (19'' crt). What I'm talking about is the parameter setup. Each parameter seem to affect at least one other parameter. (Pincushion, Trapezoid, Sidepin etc etc). Is there an easy way to configure these. It...

    Hello! No I dont have the money to aford a Remy Martin Loius XIII! (Okay perhaps I do but I wont spend that kind of cash on a bottle of booze). I'm really a "single malt" type of guy but I've tried several cognacs, including "Grönstedst Extra" (excellent Swedish blend) and "Martell Cordon...
