Merc, does this translate into any worries for the two cards I just purchased? They will only be used for nice business systems - you know, AMD XP 2100+ and up.

Smells like over-priced propaganda to me.

Thanks for your input, I just went ahead and purchsed two of each and we'll see how it goes.

By the way, the non-Sapphire one is the cheaper card.

blakerboy, I usually sell MSI GeForce cards. I haven't had a failure yet, and they work well with the KT266A and KT400 boards that I use (usually those are Soltek and Gigabyte). But, I would like to try something from ATI. I've used a couple Radeon 7000 cards, but they're not very special (as...

What would be better for a business system (maybe a minor game like AOE) in the ATI arena: Radeon 9000 64MB DDR Sapphire Radeon 9100 64MB DDR How would either of these two cards compare with a GeForce4 MX440-T 64MB DDR Memory? The pricing structure for me is very similar between the two...

What's the refresh rate on that Blake?

Alas, in the Northern hemisphere, summer will be coming soon, and the Bartenders crunching power will slow down. But cheerfully, there are still a few months left of reasonable weather. I think Tea and the Bartender should just trade off crunching for the same ID.

I find it amazing at the different stories we report on this forum, I suppose that is the beauty of this place. The problem that Tannin explained with ATI I just had with nVidia. It was a Ti4600 and Windows XP installation. I removed the nVidia card, put in a ATI Rage Pro temporarily, went...

I just had a customer come in with a dead WD800JB - no spin. His first response was, I don't want another Western Digital. Indeed. He was also concerned with hard disk drives in general, so I sold him two SP8004H and a Promise FastTrak TX2 card; I created a RAID 1, and away he went. (Well, it...

I don't have a van. :D

Between Coug, Tannin, me, and Mercutio, I think Tannin is the only one with a retail store front.

Yes, SJC is a nice place to live, and thank you for the compliments about my website. Ortega Hwy. has seen plenty of automobile accidents and more then its fair share of weird happenings.

Only a few miles south of you Mubs - San Juan Capistrano. See the URL in my profile.

What is the Peg?

Welcome to Southern California USA. I see that at least 8 months out of the year. :(

How come that Clippymeisters daily score is so low?

Well I suppose there is a tradeoff for Canadians with their peace, clean living, and decent weather.

It's a good deal, but low on the memory side. Hook that machine up to your network, somewhere in a cool, dark corner, and just VNC to the machine. It would make a nice little dev server (after more memory is installed).

From what I can see here, this toothbrush is powered by a USB connection. If anyone can read the site, it would be funny to see what it says about this device.

Those are great stories you found Mercutio - I laughed through all of them because I've seen the same thing.

Ok, we've contributed a PIII 667EB to the Clippy Fold-For-Your-Life-Foundation. There may be more to come - to be arranged. :shake2:

What sort of helpful information did the resource kit bring you?

What? Oh . . . don't yell so loud. I'll see what I can do.

Let's see your cats play with those sticky pads! :D

No problem fool, I'm sure we've all made that error.

It looks like Tea has her Friday blues avatar up. Why the sad face Tea?

As long as diesel stays below $2.00 :D Oh sorry, you're trying to be serious. :(

My mistake gentlemen. The ATI Xpert 2000 uses the Rage 128-bit engine and is thus not a Pro. However, the Xpert 98 uses the Rage XL engine (even though it is only 64-bit) which puts it in the Pro family. Here is a quick list from ATI: RAGE 128 PRO: ALL IN WONDER128 PRO RAGE 128: ALL IN...

This news was brought to by the INQ, and can be found here .

The Xpert 2000 is a Rage Pro 128.

In order to get below 50.00 AUD, I'd have to go with the ATI Xpert 98 with 8MB of memory. In the 50.00 AUD to 60.00 AUD range, I could sell the ATI Xpert 2000 with 32MB of memory and a 128-bit data width. The ATI 7000 with 32MB of memory and TV Out would be a few dollars more.

:D

I like the News articles posted in our Computer Forum and the frontpage, however, if you click on the comments link on the frontpage, it takes you to the comments section there. How about linking that to the thread related to that news article in our Computer forum?

We are happy that you're here Merc man.

You're . . . . OT . . . in almost . . . every . . .

A little OT in this thread Bartender?

Nice. :lol:

That is what the Bartender tells me. I think the OT:Polizei agrees with him. :D

Handy, you're not the first person to call me insane. :D

Coug, I'm sorry to see that your crunching strength will lessen. But I can appreciate the priorities that you've outlined for yourself. I think we all appreciate the dedication that you put into this project.

What seems to be the problem with statsman.org? They've been down for a while. Are they going behind the scenes and changing everybody's scores around?

Twenty is certainly young, as is 30 and maybe even 40. Well, okay, maybe 40 isn't exactly young-young, but it sure isn't old by any means. Don't forget we have Tea, she is only 3 (if my memory is working properly).

That is still a decent suggestion mubs. I would also run a virus check.

Any problems noted in Device Manager? How long has this problem persisted? What events happened when this problem began?

Is there a lot of disk activity when using, opening, or closing Word?

Speaking of old and cranky, Tannin hasn't responded to this thread. :D Tea is too young for any of this.

So, Word isn't closing properly (not responding). Have you run Scandisk?

How big is the pagefile? How fragmented is the partition?
