    Windows 7 World of warcraft - win7 64bit. vs vista 32bit

    Vace, For some reason I didn't get notification about your reply until yesterday... Anyway the Affinty mask tells WoW how many layers or masks it will spread across your CPU's. Some people notice that WoW will use all available cores, but one more than others, and cause FPS issues. Again I...

    Windows 7 Logitech G15 Keyboard

    I don't know if someone correctly responded ot this as I didn't read through everything, but I had the same problem. Its UAC. If you turn it off or run the G15 software as Administrator the G15 keys do not work in games that you aren't running as admin (maybe even that you are running as...

    Windows 7 Windows 7 Installation Problems Solved!

    I wanted to add an installation issue I had, and I didn't see it here, but if it is, forgive me. This is kind of a 2 parter, but I had issues installing to a 500 gb Seagate as well as my 2 new 64GB SSD's that were raided. They where both the first device on the list, disk 0, but when I tried...

    Windows 7 Nvidia drivers!

    I just posted on someone else's thread, but for best performance get the 185.20 forceware drivers. They have windows 7 drivers built in, but nVidia has removed them from the site. you can google them though and they popup as its very popular for 7 and Vista. I think also in the hardware forum...

    Windows 7 Windows update not finding Nvidia update

    What nVidia drivers are you looking for? If you need video, DO NOT get the drivers from windows update, get the 185.20 drivers which are linked and sticked to the drivers section of this website. If you are looking for nForce drivers, well, there are no new ones. I have found that...

    Windows 7 Default Sound hardware is changed by Windows7 each time I reboot

    I have the same problem any time I have reinstalled windows 7 It appears to constantly reset it for the USB device as the default audio but it really is not saving your change to default. What I had to do was right after a fresh boot, set my surround sound as default, then I changes some...

    Windows 7 World of warcraft - win7 64bit. vs vista 32bit

    WoW is kind of backwards when it comes to scaling. Most newer games use GPU before CPU, not WoW, it does CPU then GPU, I don't know all the technical bits behind it, but it makes upgrading videocards before processor pointless for WoW. Now, there are some tricks for improving performance in...

    Windows 7 updated NForce Drivers?

    I was just curious if anyone had any updated nForce drivers, as the windows 7 update ones as quite old and the Vista 64 doesn't have the windows 7 embeded like the GeForce drivers do and Windows 7 kicks out the vista ones if I try to manually install them. Just curious as I don't like seeing...

    Windows 7 Will not boot OS unless DVD is in the drive

    Well I fixed it but it doesn't make any sense. I had to switch it and my other HD places in the SATA. First off I tried going into the command prompt from the install repair utility and run bootsect /nt60 c: that said it did it correctly but nothing happened. I remembered for some reason it...

    Windows 7 Will not boot OS unless DVD is in the drive

    I did the chkdsk, it didn't take too long, but it did not fix anything. Found no problems, so I did the boot diagnostic from the repair menu, that found no problems as well. So now I am at a loss unless there are more ideas or anyone knows how to "rewrite" the necessary boot files.

    Windows 7 Will not boot OS unless DVD is in the drive

    Yeha I have been meaning to do that since for some reason my second HD greatly out performs the first, but they are both the same seagate model and worked the same in Vista Ult 64. I also read on here that there are boot checking tools on the install CD if you boot in and select diagnostics...

    Windows 7 Will not boot OS unless DVD is in the drive

    So far things are great. I am really loving this OS and figured out a few tricks and tweaks, but one thing is bothering the hell out of me. When I need to restart, if I take out the DVD, I get an error of no boot disk. I put the DVD in, ignore loading from the DVD, it works fine. I checked...
