Command and Conquer Game Speed

Hi guys, recently i bought command and conquer from the psn store for ps3, tried playing it and game speed seems to be stuck on very fast with no option to lower it. Game is difficult enough to play with a controller let alone at super-speed. Been looking around the forums and can't find a fix for this, has anyone managed to lower the game speed?

You can try deleting the GAMEDATA and redownload it.

Can I play Age of Empires, Command and Conquer & COD4 in Mac

I want to buy a MacBook Pro 13" with its base configurations having Intel HD 3000 graphics. Will this support the games I mentioned like
Age of Empires, Command and Conquer, COD4 & Fifa2011.

well intel hd 3000 is just a very basic DISPLAY unit, it wouldnt be taken into consideration when purchasing computers becuz wat matters is the GRAPHIC PROCESSING UNIT, in this case, the new macbook pro come with awesome amd radeon hd series, which is pretty darn good. however, i would doubt that 13 inch would satisfy ur gaming needs becuz face it, 13 inch is kinda small to play epic games

Mac book and Command and Conquer 3 (Mac Version)

I am going to be buying a Mac book the Basic Black model and I want to know will command and conquer 3 (mac version) run smoothly on it.

No the basic macbook has integrated graphics with the processor instead of a dedicated video card...ie most games just won't work on a macbook even in bootcamp with the windows version of the game. If you want to game and need a laptop, either bite the bullet and buy the lowest end macbook pro or get a PC laptop.
Thats my advice, being stuck with a macbook and wanting an upgrade!

Satellite A series switches off while playing Command and Conquer 3

Hello everyone,
this has happened to me second time. While I was chilling out playing Command and Conquer 3 skirmish, laptop suddenly switched itself off. I was running on external power and the battery was full. What is even more strange, it was impossible to switch it back on until I removed the battery and plugged it back in.
I bought this game around March and was able to beat the 3 campaigns without such attractions.
I suspect this may be caused by overheating, since after the shutdown the laptop is quite hot. What do you think? I bought it in January.
In my desktop I occasionally removed the fan and hoovered the heatsink, it tended to accumulate quite a lot of dust sometimes. It is not that easy in case of laptops. Any suggestions? Cheers.

Hi,
you should make a bios update, because I had a similar problem with my A100 and after the bios upgrade to the newest version (5.60) I had no problems anymore. Maybe it helps.
The other thing is, if you have a ventilation system which is clobbed with dust, then you should take a can with compressed air (you can get it in every electronic market/shop) and gently lead some air in short blows through the ventilation holes. (like 2 secs. blow then wait, 2 sec. blow then wait and so on; just make short blasts :) )
Then the ventilation should be clear.
Otherwise bring your machine to an service partner for a hardware checkup because some loose flat cables in the inner of the machine could be probably a reason that the machine does not power on properly..

Command and Conquer 3 game disc will not work

Hi
I Just brought this brand new. It got shipped to me yesterday and when I put the disk in my mac, it just spins around and then ejects. I put in dvds and cd's and the worked fine. But this will not work.
Can any one help? or is it a busted Game disc?

well, i'm glad that i'm not the only one with this problem. i got it for christmas, so of course i tried opening it and playing immediately. this didn't work though. just for kicks, i had my friend try it on his macbook pro. exact same model. his, however, worked. and i KNOW for a fact that he didn't have the patches. i downloaded both 1.08 and 1.09, but neither of those appear to have helped too much. i'm going to bed in the hopes that perhaps tomorrow morning it will magically work.
if anyone finds a solution overnight, i would really appreciate it

Musings: MVC Front Controller/Command and Controller Strategy

Hi,
I am currently taking my first shot at implementing the Front Controller pattern, the Command and Controller Strategy flavor, in Java. When applying the pattern, my chosen point of focus is achieving as much isolation as possible of Client-specific implementation details from the rest of the framework (Web-based framework Clients, Swing-based framework Clients, queueing-based framework Clients, etc.) However, I am running into a lot of (apparent?) inconsistencies when it comes to CCS discussions "out there", so I have a feeling that perhaps I have misunderstood the Front Controller/Command and Controller Strategy pattern. Maybe the MVC gurus out there would have some thoughts on the matter.
My issues:
1.) Some CCS discussions seem to assign View presentation (sometimes called "dispatch", or "rendering", or "forwarding"?) to an ApplicationController. It seems puzzling to me, since only a concrete FrontController should include any knowledge of a concrete View structure. Shouldn't only a FrontController perform a logical-to-physical resource mapping, thus encapsulating knowledge whether a particular View is a separate, stand-alone Web page or a compound, argument-driven Swing object, and how to "present it" (by either redirecting to a Web page, or bringing a particular Swing object into the foreground)?
2.) Some CCS discussions seem to introduce Client-specific implementation details at the ApplicationController level, for example "HTTP requests" or "HTTP responses". It seems puzzling to me, since I feel that every part of the framework, except for a concrete FrontController, should be completely independent of the nature of a Client making a request. Instead, I created a generic Request object w/arguments and have a concrete FrontController translate any client-specific details into such a generic Request, before delegating to an ApplicationController.
3.) In the light of the (2.) above, I am not sure what constitutes a "response" from an ApplicationController back to a FrontController. It seems to me that the only universal "response" is a LogicalViewEnumeration: what View to present once a command has been completed, in many cases a "don't care", or a "show the requestor", or a "show a home page" (not every request has to result in changing a View). Well, perhaps a LogicalViewEnumeration as well as possible View arguments (?).
4.) In the light of the (3.) above, I suspect that any failures in Request delegation, or Command execution, should be perhaps propagated back to a FrontController by exceptions only, since, say, a WebFrontController might want to show a click-through error page, when a SwingFrontController might prefer to show an error dialog box, a LogicalErrorViewEnumeration might not make sense at all in the context of a particular Client, for example a queueing Client.
5.) In the light of the (4.) above, there is the question of an appropriate Request interface (into an ApplicationController), an appropriate Response interface (back into a FrontController), as well as an appropriate ViewArguments interface (into a FrontController and later into a View). The problem with generic Requests is that they can be created with nonsensical argument combinations, so shouldn't Requests be abstract and force proper arguments in concrete subclasses, through explicit constructors (in a sense, degenerate Commands)? The problem with Responses and ViewArguments is that... well, I have not found any formal discussion anywhere as to what those should look like. In most samples I have encountered, Responses include Client-specific implementation details, as mentioned in (2.), above.
6.) Some CCS discussions seem to introduce a Flow Manager at the ApplicationController level. It seems puzzling to me, since the whole point of the Command and Controller Strategy flavor seems to be centralization of business logic execution within self-contained Command objects. Shouldn't Requests get associated with Handlers (objects capable of actually carrying out Requests) and transformed into Commands inside an ApplicationController, thus Commands themselves return appropriate LogicalViewEnumeration back to an ApplicationController, back to a FrontController? Let's consider a ShowMyShippingAddress request coming into the framework: unless such a Request is eventually treated as a Command returning a particular LogicalViewEnumeration, it is suddenly a Flow Manager "acting" as a business logic driver. I guess the question here is: except for a few special cases handled by a particular ApplicationController (authentication, error conditions, default behavior, etc.), should flow management be considered stand-alone, or always delegated to Commands?
7.) Some CCS discussions seem to include an extra Request argument that specifies an ApplicationController to use (Request.Action="create", Request.Controller="account", Request.Username="me-me-me"), instead of using a Router inside of a FrontController to resolve to a particular ApplicationController through a generic action (Request.Action="createAccount", Request.Username="me-me-me"). I am not sure about the reason for such a design decision: why should a Client or a FrontController be allowed to concern itself with an implementation-level structure of the framework? Wouldn't any framework state -dependent ApplicationController resolution issues be best handled inside a Router, used by a FrontController to resolve [obtain] an appropriate ApplicationController, thus preventing Clients from ever forcing the framework into a possibly inconsistent behavior?
Any comments appreciated...
Thanks,
Gary

The former is (normally) intimately tied to the actual view being used (HTTP, Swing, etc.) whereas the ApplicationController typically is not. Both are involved in dispatch and event processing. The former normally renders a view whereas the latter does not.

However, you can become generic to the point where your Request and Response interfaces are only acting as "marker" interfaces (think of java.io.Serializable). Writing a truly generic controller is possible, but personally, I have never found the effort justified.

Well, perhaps a LogicalViewEnumeration as well as possible View arguments (?).A given service (if you ascribe to SOA) should be the fundamental unit in your architectural design. A good application controller would be responsible for determining how to dispatch a given Command. Whether a Command pattern is used or whether service methods are invoked directly from your FrontController, the ApplicationController should enforce common service aspects. These include authentication, authorization, auditing, orchestration, validation, logging, error handling, just to name a few.
The ApplicationController should ideally offload these aspects from a given service. The service would indicate how the aspects are to be applied (e.g., strong authentication required, x role required, fetching of existing process state, etc.) This allows services to be developed more quickly and to have these critical aforementioned aspects developed and tested centrally.
Your FrontController, in contrast, is responsible for transforming whatever input it is designed to receive (HTTP form data posts, XML-RPC, etc.) and ensure that it honors the contract(s) that the ApplicationController establishes. There are no cut-and-dry decisions though about when a given piece of functionality should be ApplicationController or FrontController. Take error handling. Should I emit just a generic ServiceException or allow the FrontController to decide what to do with a more concrete checked exception? (The FrontController, in any case, should present the error to the user in a manner dictated by the protocol it serves).

Yes. However, the ApplicationController could easily 'hide' details about the failure. For example, any number of exceptions being mapped to a generic DataAccessException or even more abstractly to a ServiceFailureException. The ApplicationController could indicate whether the failure was recoverable and/or populate information necessary to speed up production support (e.g., mapping exceptions to error codes and/or providing a primary key in an error audit log table for support to reference). A given FrontController would present that information to the user in the method that makes sense (e.g., error dialog for Swing, error page for HTML, etc.)

Nothing, however, stops you from requiring a certain sub-type in a given service method. You can still pass in the interface and validate the proper type by an assert statement (after all, in the vast majority of situations, the proper service method should get the proper instance of a given Request object). IMO, the FrontController would create the Command instance which would be passed to the ApplicationController which would dispatch and invoke the proper service method. A model response would be received by the FrontController which would then render the appropriate view.

For example, orchestration (or BPM) is properly at either the service or ApplicationController layers. However, determining which view to display is properly at the FrontController layer. The ApplicationController should receive a Command (with a populate Request) and return that Command (with a populated Response). Both the Request and Response are fundamentally model classes (within MVC). The FrontController is responsible for populating the Request and/or Command and rendering the Response and/or Command. Generic error handling is usually centralized for both controllers.

However, it seems to be the method by which commands are dispatched. They are in effect allowing a FrontController to dictate which of n ApplicationControllers should receive the request. If we allow a FrontController to directly invoke a service method, then the ApplicationController is simply a centralized framework that should always be invoked for each service method (enforced via AOP or some other mechanism). If there is a single, concrete ApplicationController which handles dispatch, then all FrontControllers communicate directly with that instance. It is really just a design decision (probably based on your comfort level with concepts like AOP that allow the ApplicationController to exist solely behind the scenes).
I might have totally missed your questions, but those are my thoughts on a Monday. Best of luck.

What SDK for board and card games dev?

Hi,
I'm creating board and card games as a hobby. I used Windows
GDI in the past, but my experience is that my creativity is limited
by the difficulty in manipulating sprites, transparency and
scalable graphics. I don't care about 3D. I do care about
synchronization between audio and video events. I'm currently using
MS Visual Studio 6. Games available on shockwave.com surely use
some sort of SDK to help carry these tasks, but I don't know if
they all use the same or there are many flavors available. In
extra, I like the fact you can easily develop online versions and
play online with others. Can it support Mac? I can't spend a lot of
money and time on new development tools, but maybe there is an
Adobe product that would allow me to do exactly what I have in
mind. Can someone tell me which product would best suit my need and
what should be my expectations.
Thanks,

I tried to look for clovertown processors, and they are still around 250 each plus there are different models....could you give some models of processors that will work for sure on my 1st gen mac?
Regarding the video card:
I tried to use the diamond 1Gb, and on the 8X slot it works basically at half the speed of the x1900 (3dmark 06 gave me 4200 for the x1900 and 2250 for the 4650); so the gain is close to 0
Under macOs does not work at all; and when i tried to swap the 2 cards to boot the pc and use the 16x rail on the 4650, basically Vista decided to not recognize either card, leaving me with 1 monitor off and one on, without being able to recognize the video card.
I wonder why the PCI utility on mac does not allow to set which slot will get the 16X....the only place where the x1900 fits is slot 4, so even if the card would work fine , i would have to swap cards and connectors everytime that i wanna play in bootcamp, and this is not the best choice
Last attempt: tried with a 4870 and looks like the flashing does not always work (read trough 26 pages of a post on another site); so since i don't want to pay 350 for the apple version, i've got a 3rd party 3870 for less than 200 dollars (shame that the 4870 for pc cost the same price), that form the links that you guys gave me, seems the best choice for pro apps and games, compared to the 8800 (and the plus that under bootcamp i can get a second card and use crossfire is a huge plus, especially when the price of this card will go further down!).
Thanks everyone for giving your suggestions, and hope that this post will help other people that, like me, were trying to update their machine to a better video card

Will a more powerful processor increase my GMail and Google Apps speed??

Will a more powerful processor increase my GMail and Google Apps speed??

I take it that you know the processor in the iMac G4 is not upgradeable. It's soldered to the logic board. The 20" iMac G4 had the fastest process of any G4 iMac--1.25Ghz-- so you're maxed out there.
Do "About the Mac.." from the the Apple menu to see how much RAM is installed. Sluggishness can be due to too little RAM.
Sluggish performance can be a too full hard drive. Single click your hard drive's icon then do command i to see the values of Capacity, Available, and Used. the space Available should be no less than 10-15 percent of the vaule under Capacity.
For comparison, I have a G4 tower with a single 1.25Ghz processor and the same bus speed and video RAM you have, and it is not at all sluggish with anything other than Office 2008, which is sluggish all by itself. My G4 has 1.75G RAM and a bunch of free space on the hard drive.

IS there an easy way to execute a shell command and capture its output...

From an application? I am thinking of using fork and then waiting for the PID to finish and write the output to a file which I then read, but this seems clunky. Also there are big warnings about frameworks getting hosed if you use fork, although the "Forked" process will exec the shell command and the one that gets the PID the original process might be 'safe' from this framework corruption. I am not certain of this, it is just a guess.
If there was something like a process class where I could specify the executable and parameters, and read from it's std out until the process completed, that would be better. Or even get a callback when the process exited and an asynchronous callback for each line of data it produced.

That was just in response to OrangeKay implied accusation that I was some kind of hard-core Microsoft programmer that sneered at apple programmers.
You may want to book mark this, I will go over a brief history which should clear a lot of things up, about me, and about what I am doing.
Lets turn the clock back to 1998: I graduate from a university with a BS in Computer science. I had been interning at a local defense contractor writing missile testing software. This was on a proprietary hardware and so there was no "Microsoft" involved. At this point I think Bill Gates = Satan. Microsoft = Kingdom of Evil.
I get a job as a video game programmer. I write code from the Playstation, then the Playstation 2 and Gamecube. I do this for several years and again I have zero interest / knowledge of the Microsoft world beyond it being the OS which I am forced to use to play my games on. I had fought this by trying to use OS Warp and other things, but eventually since I mainly had a PC for games I had to get a windows OS, the first being NT 3.51 and then Win98 cause NT4.0 didn't support past directx 3 and everyone was using directX 5 or 6 (I do not remember).
As video game companies go, they do not last. Everyone wants to write video games, anyone with some cash wants to start a company. 1 in 1000 will make it 5 years. Needless to say, as our company began to tank, I got laid off, along with my entire team. I have cash in the bank, no big deal, right?
Well the economy started to suck, video game developers were closing down like crazy so the market was saturated with x-video game developers. 2 Years go by, no job, and almost no money. Then I get a call from some guy who wants me to come for an interview about 75 miles away. It is in a place I do not want to go. So they interview me, and ask me a bunch of general programming questions.
I leave the place, and by the time I get home there is a message on my machine asking me if I would take the job at a ridiculously high salary (I live in an area where the cost of living is very low). Well I am about out of money and its a job offer with a huge salary, so I take it.
I get there and guess what? I get to work on this "agent" that runs on windows boxes. I have NO IDEA how to program on windows. Windows is evil, why would I want to taint myself with this vile Microsoft APIs? I really have no choice, I have to learn how to develop on windows. I get to use visual studio 6, which I do not understand because I used the Borland compilers (Borland != Microsoft).
Well I start to slug through it all and get familiar with MSDN and CodeProject and CodeGuru. As the years pass, I begining applicate the examples and detailed documentation that MSDN has. I have a start page on MSDN which covers every category of operation which will take you through a tree of choices and lead you to the exact area related API calls you will need to use to do whatever you want. Now I do not think MS = Evil anymore. I switch to DevStudio 2005 which is really nice. The debugging, IDE, and everything is great.
Now the other half of this application resides on a server. That server is a Linux box, and the server app is written in Java. My stuff is still C++.
One day, I get a request, and a eMac with 10.4 PPC to make a Mac version. Now I am at the point of Mac programming as I was with Windows when I started. I didn't know anything about it. I was looking for CodeWarrior cause I used that in the past, but alas, CodeWarrior is no more. I get XCode. I see all sorts of options to make a project. BSD project, Carbon, Cocoa, etc... What the heck any of these. I can guess the BSD one is very basic, but I do not understand Carbon vs Cocoa.
So what do I do? I make a basic carbon app and make a basic Cocoa app. The carbon app looks like some kind of C++ framework. The Cocoa app? "Is this another language like Java or C#? It doesn't look like a C++ language."
Guess which choice I make. Carbon. I struggle through this looking at the docs, posting on CodeGuru and whatnot until someone finally tells me about these forums and warns me about how unfriendly people are. So I make an account and start asking questions. I eventually get my app to be multi-platform to run on windows and Mac by using some API abstractions which are easy to do since I had abstracted the Windows API by my own class wrappers.
I ask a lot of questions, very few are ever answered because I am not asking about simple things, like making windows and how to get button clicks and that stuff. I am asking stuff like, "How do you change the DNS? or How do I know when a user is about to log out?" Currently on my side list as I type this, I have 27 unresolved questions. I probably found workaround for most of them, or figured it out eventually.
On this forum mostly people are helpful when the do respond, except for OrangeKay. He definitely has a chip on his shoulder.
Over the past few years my Opinion of MS has improved greatly while my opinion of Macs (from the programmer's point of view) has dropped considerably. XCode still isn't as good as VS6 which is like 15 years old, never mind Dev studio 2005 or 2008. The documentation is scattered, not easy to find, occasionally wrong, or simply missing. The examples may not even compile or contain non-existent functions. It is unbelievable how bad it is.
If Steve Jobbs wants to really get a large coder population he ought to spend some of those billions (or is it trillions) of dollars on a team that will re-write the current documentation in a correct, easy to understand, with full examples, arranged in a logical manner for everyone to use. He should say, "See MSDN online? I want something like that, only better, it has to be MUCH better." Then he should say to the XCode team, "Look at DevStudio 2008. XCode should do EVERYTHING that does. Once that is done, IMPROVE XCode even more to make 2008 look like a joke."
To bad the Developer aspect of the "Apple Experience" has not gotten "End User" treatment. Then it would be a joy to develop on Macs.
So here I am asking for help on certain things. You wonder why I do not use Cocoa. Maybe I should, maybe I shouldn't. My first look didn't look promising, and a quick look at the docs is all about GUI's. My app has NO GUI. Again, Cocoa? Maybe it will still work, but the examples and stuff I see are all about GUIs.
When I get time, I will look at cocoa even further. MFC on windows is MOSTLY about GUI stuff, but there is a small section of it that does not deal with GUIs. CString is a great MFC class. I had to get rid of it though cause Mac's do not have a similar class. I use CStdString which is a platform agnostic CString replacement.
I hope you are all a little more enlightened. BTW my Application which runs on Mac's and PCs on no less then 3 MILLION Machines has not crashed ONCE in the past 2 years. There have been bugs, but nothing that crashed it. The bugs were mostly unforeseen situations, like what if the guy has 15 network adapters that are all LIVE? I didn't plan for that, there were complications, the server got some strange data, but it didn't crash (My app, not the server. It crashes on occasion still). Are there bugs in my code? I am sure there are, but I do not know of any, because if I did, it would be fixed.

Games speeding up randomly!

After installing a K7N420 mobo with 1900XP proc. and 256DDR ram I find that occasionally, games speed up (around x 5 speed). The games in question are IL-2 Sturmovik and Warcraft III. I have heard of someone with the same mobo getting this problem on Sturmovik, but didn't find out if this issue was resolved.
Restarting the game fixes this problem, but was wondering if anyone has encountered this?
(My graphics card is an Asus V7700 Geforce 2 Pro)

I'm in the process of obtaining Win XP, so hopefully this problem will disappear. The reason I haven't switched already is that I've had little or no problems with Win 98SE and if it aint broke, etc.
(By the way, I'm using an external modem)

Ghost Recon Fast Game Speed

Anyone know about the problem with Ghost Recon with nforce boards? It send the clock speed through the roof and the game is unplayable as its so fast - you can run the length of the map in Anyone any experience of this problem? Would like to get back to playing GR now that I have upgraded MB but doesnt seem likely at the mo.

GO to the ghostrecon.com page and tech support forum.

The problem is with the nForce chipset, which was not available when GR was being tested. We have notified nVidia about the problem, and a fix should be out shortly.
Read the Ghost Recon FAQ!
I am not aware of a fix yet and am surprised no one here heard of this problem.
I checked the FAQ but the link is dead so thought ask you guys for advice.
I used Live Driver to d/l latest VGA driver (29.19 I think) but it still goes wappy. After shutting down GR it still runs at break neck speed like my computers on crack!

While attempting to run a game in bootcamp on a rMBP, the CPU gets hotter until it throttles and the game stops working. Is this normal? A machine like this shouldn't have this problem. I haven't touched it and fans are maxed with CPU still at 90 degrees.

All right, here's what's going on. I have been trying ot run a very graphics intense game on my Macbook Pro with Retina Display through bootcamp on windows 7. When I start the game up, it runs beautifully.... for about ten minutes. Five minutes in, the fans start to whirl loudly. By ten minutes in, performance begins to degrade noticibly and the game starts to stutter. I live with the stuttering until it becomes completely unreasonable and I shut down the game. When I come back to my computer several hours later, the process repeats.
Here is what I believe is happening. When I start the game, the CPU immediately begins to heat up, as CPUs do. Ten minutes in, the CPU has heated up past the safety limit and begins throttling itself back so as to protect itself. Over the course of the next little while, it continues to throttle itself until it finally doesn't have enough power to properly run the game at any reasonable speed, at which point, I get frustrated and quit. My concern is this. I understand that mobile rigs aren't necessarilly the most game friendly, however, this computer should be more than capable enough to handle some light gaming. (Mind you, I'm only playing ten minutes in when the game starts to lag.) Is this something I need to bring into Apple? Is this normal?
Thanks for your help!

Did you download and install the Apple drivers onto the Win7 system when setting up BootCamp? Without them, Windows will have no way of getting the fans to do their stuff when things get hot.

No MSI info and MSI clock speed flags in display properties

My problem is really curious. Several days ago I bought new harddrive and made clear instalation of Win98 SE. After that I installed VIA 4 in 1, on-board audio drivers, the new DirectX and then DetonatorXP drivers for my G4 Ti 4600. My problem is that in display properties I miss two flags descrabing my nVidia card - MSI information and MSI clock. System has detected card correctly. In advanced display properties I can adjust OpenGL and Direct 3D settings, AA settings, etc.
My system is stable in every game and benchmarks, so it means that card works correctly. Powerstrip detects core and memory speeds correctly, under adapter options in this program I see 128 MB video memory, AGP 4x enabled, fastwrites enabled - everything is correct.
But in display properties I do not see MSI information and MSI clock speed flags. Why ??? I have also reinstalled VIA 4 in 1 and Detonator XP drivers - it did not help.
Before byuing my new harddrive (80 GB Seagate,7200rpm) I had 30 GB IBM,5400rpm. Windows 98 SE installed on this harddrive detects card correctly too including MSI information and MSI clock speed flags. Now I miss it. Any idea ???
On both harddrives I have installed DetonatorXP 29.42 then I have updated to 30.82
My system:
MSI K7T Turbo 6330 3.0
1,33 GHz Athlon T-bird
512 MBRAM
G4 Ti 4600
80 GB Seagate BarracudaIV 7200rpm
Win98 SE

I installed the MSI Drivers from the MSI cd. All ok but the clock and info tabs were missing. I upgraded the driver from msi site to 3000 and no tabs.
X(
Before the GF4 i had a gf2 and i realized i forgot to uninstall the nvidia drivers before installing the new card's drivers. I uninstalled them and reinstalled the msi driver 3000. But no clock nor info tabs.
Can someone help me? Are those tabs needed?
I'm using xp pro, intel p4 1.8 on motherboard intel d850md, 1gb ram.
Also the 3d turbo experience gives me msivga.ocx initialization error.
Thanxs.

They are nVIDIA drivers with the added MSI tabs and logos...
But there is no real reson to do it.
