Re: Dunkirk film

Have seen it twice now on 70MM IMAX screens - absolutely great movie.

It's brought me back to dust off BoBII and get back into the air!

Re: Imageshack

For this same reason I no longer will view images at imageshack.

Right-click on an image and view the properties - if its at imageshack I do not click on the image link.

Re: Cliffs of Dover off to a shaky start

Its buggy as hell. IMHO its a disgrace to have been released in what seems to be an alpha development stage. No Force Feedback joystick support - and apparently no plans to implement it - ever . For the moment among many other bugs: No SLI or crossfire support Can not seem to adjust Anti-aliasing ei...

Re: New PC build project

On the Anti Aliasing settings try some of the different options in the NVIDIA control panel profile you create for BoB2 and look at the plane in outside view in game. Pay particular attention to how the wire between the fuselage and tail in exterior view looks. Higher AA levels will make that wire a...

Re: New PC build project

Sorry PC - the old 8800 GTX is going to my little nephew. I agree unless it was dirt cheap you are better off getting a newer card. I've always been an NVIDIA guy mostly because I think they are a little better with driver updates, etc. Quality wise I doubt there is a big difference between ATI or N...

Re: New PC build project

I'm confused at how you can watch netflix. Are you saying the monitor is connected to the video card and netflix shows VIA the video card?

Does the PC boot up at all and do you reach the main windows screen?

Re: New PC build project

OK, so I understand where you are at right now, did you reformat a drive and reinstall WinXp all from scratch? I don;t think there is a bios setting to change to install the video card, your mobo does not have onboard video if I recall so there is no need to go in and disable the onboard video to in...

Try this:
Go into options / gfx.
Switch "use windows desktop resolution (recommended)" to off.
In the line that now appears below, choose a resolution.

Also in the ATI drivers config (outside of BobII) enable anti-aliasing.
