RE: PCI-E and Onboard Multi Monitor?
Install the drivers for the on-board one.

RE: PCI-E and Onboard Multi Monitor?
I've got a similar setup, and it works fine. You will need to have both the card and the on-board chip installed properly [drivers and stuff] and it should be fairly easy to make your desktop cover more than one monitor. If you're using X, there wa...

RE: Problem with Winamp
Winamp seems to have problems switching between different formats, and that used to give me this dialog all the time [midi -> wma did this here]. Have you tried opening mp3 files? What does the error report contain?

RE: Changing the time code on digital photographs
It's just metadata. You can probably change that in a text or hex editor. I'd probably back the file up on your first try if you want to go that route. If you've got to edit a heap of files, that might be the best way. Does the windows shell allo...

RE: Processor Advice
You've got a 64 bit computer that can issue two billion instructions per second. What on earth are you doing to push that to its limits? IMO you could wait until the next AMD chips come out. If they aren't compatible, you will be sure to get a good...

RE: Does Vista comes with Java?
There isn't much need to preinstall Java. Software that requires it can usually be distributed with it, and if you're getting software from the web, there's little difficulty downloading the JVM from sun.com. I presume that, also, it's code MS d...

Ares FTW. There's something nifty about being able to check the source of a p2p tool.

RE: Confused
When you try to use the piece of software, it will probably ask for the product key. If not, it might be in one of the menus of the software [say, in the help menu].

RE: Beryl and desktop effects
the desktop effects that Ubuntu uses are not part of Beryl, so I don't see how they could work. Beryl has its own desktop effects, use those instead. For help on that, search for the Beryl FAQ.

RE: Disk Partitioning?
On this computer, hda1 [38 GB] = C: hdb1 [6 GB] = / hdb5 [512 MB] = swap It's no more difficult to make your non-boot partitions extended partitions rather than primary partitions, so there's no reason not to, even though it's very rare that most ...

RE: LCD Monitor Problem
I think what he meant was, some cards have small frame buffers that don't allow 24 bit colour at high res with some settings. Probably not the issue though. I'm pretty certain this is not a monitor problem, so you can hang on to that. At worst, it...

RE: HELP!, cant install vista over ubuntu
BTW duck, I had problems with Windows + GRUB too. Windows takes an extra boot to realise that it doesn't own the MBR. I mentioned this in my post here for new Linux users, and suggested you get a Super Grub Disk, which will fix the problem. EDIT: PS...

RE: Disabling scroll wheel on mouse
Unless you're interested in tracing and patching the driver, there's probably no way to do it easily on a closed source operating system. The simple solution for you might be buying a new mouse?

RE: Disk Partitioning?
It shouldn't make any difference. The only distinction is, you can only boot from primary partitions, so if you ever plan to multiboot, make sure you've got a primary spare. It's not really an issue though :P

RE: Flurry screensaver - OpenGL?!
Or ten years even, I had OpenGL support in 97 [lol, I would have been 11]. I guess there may have been some el-cheapo cards back then that didn't, but there was little point building D3D without OpenGL back then, and without either, they were essen...

RE: Flurry screensaver - OpenGL?!
Ok, I tried it out, and at first I got the black screen too. It seems it takes a while before it starts to draw the colour [felt like about twenty seconds on a 2ghz win2k machine @1024x768]. So it really does go slow, remarkably slow.

RE: What is the best Graphics card for a 22" LCD
More graphics power is good regardless of the resolution, or the size of the monitor, and since we can reasonably assume that you've already considered graphics power and your budget as the main factors on what cards you will be choosing, surely it...
