Well, reading thru this thread has answered a problem that's been bugging me since last week as I too received one of these Spoofed Header "returned mails" and was thinking I had a virus although AVG...

Just an update....

I'm now using NVidia 41.09 Dets and VIA Hyperion 4in1's with no problems.

As a side note, I gained 250 3DMarks with the new drivers. I now get almost 8900 marks.

I know what you mean. Last year when I upgraded my system, I bought Crucial for the first time and within a couple months had one of the two sticks go bad on me. Was my first time buying namebrand...

Actually, it did give kinda what we needed...... Tells us that the proper video driver is not installed, Windows is using the generic driver. But it doesn't tell us what video hardware is in the...

To get back on topic.......

If you got the retail version, make sure you get the latest patch that came out a couple days ago, version 1.2.
It drastically improved the framerates and hit...

Fill up the bathtub (not too deep, just a few inches) with lukewarm water. Then your monitor can swim around in there for a while and you dont really have to do anything else. Monitors really enjoy...

Thnx NooNoo. Well, the card (from VisionTek BTW) came with PowerDVD and a coupon or something for PowerDirector. Maybe I'll have to send in the coupon to see about that PowerDirector software. ...

I was thinking about hooking up a VCR I have laying around to my computer via the TV-in/out S-video adapter on my GF4-Ti4600, and hooking my cable line to it of course. I was wondering if anyone...

On the subject of trojans, I've been using a free scanner program called "Swat-it" for a few months now. Not sure how good it is, but it seems to do the job (found a couple I had on my system).
...

Hehe, RD. That a Ti4600 by any chance? Also, what Mobo you using? Was just wondering cause your system is sounding like mine.

P4-1.7GHz
Shuttle AV40 Mobo
768MB Crucial PC2100 DDR
VisionTek...

Okay all, I just came across this game a couple days ago, but so far it has me hooked, and it's only the Demo! Full game is to be on store shelves in a couple days from now. What game you may ask? ...

Don't forget to make sure you've updated your 4in1 drivers from VIA. That may fix your problem as I haven't seen any mention of you having done them yet.

After having just looked at a map to check (never heard of the place) I see that Black Oak isn't very close to me. It's on the other side of Jonesboro and right by the AR/TN border. Yahoo Maps says...

Installed AVG early this morning and did a full scan of my home network with the only thing found being my virus game joke file that I forgot to backup somewhere (keep losing that fun little program...

Corrupted BIOS is Not very likely, but would usually be the result of one of the more vicious but rarer viruses. More likely if it's BIOS related, it would be a configuration of added hardware. You...

Well, ok. I've been hearing (or reading rather) that so many of you love AVG so I think I'm gonna add it to my system. I used to use PC-Cillin up until about 3 or 4 years ago, and have since been...

I'm basically the same. I use IE6 now with WinXP but I was a strictly Netscape user from '94 until Netscape Communicator4.7x. I still use Communicator for all my POP email and for newsgroups, but...

He's right. I think I heard that latency on Satellite is worse than 56k modem. As for storms....where I'm at, either we have rather nasty storms quite frequently, or DirectTV is very sensitive to...

I hear youz. I do have a couple comments though for the record. I have had pretty good luck with WD and Quantum drives and bad luck with Maxtors.

My biggest surprise was only a couple months ago...

Been using these drivers for a few days now with no problems so far. Upgraded to them from 30.30 Dets after about 2 months use after upgrading from 23.11 Dets that I installed when I upgraded system...

In your original post, you said you formatted the computer, twice even. Just to be clear, when you formatted, you did something like FORMAT C: from your C: Prompt, and when it was done your hard...

Sounds like an issue with your chipset and joystick. I'm guessing you're using the onboard joystick port and USB port built onto the motherboard. I would do as Radical Dreamer suggests and make...

I used to dual boot Win2K and Win98 as it seemed I just couldn't get some games to run the way I wanted them with Win2K. Even after hours and hours of tweaking and disabling services, I was never...

Unless one of the others here know of anything special with your board and system setup requiring a BIOS update, I wouldn't mess with it if you're not familiar with it or don't feel safe with doing...
