I installed the 64-bit and everything has been smooth except for one sort of problem with gpu throttling. I've got an Nvidia Geforce 260 and under XP it would clock down to 300MHz (576 is normal) pretty much anytime I wasn't playing a game. I could even have a windowed game in background and it would clock down until I brought the game to the top. Anyway, under 7 it will throttle to 300Mhz for a short time after boot. But eventually once it gets pushed to 576 it will not go back down until a reboot. During all of this my E8400 will throttle fine. I've putzed with power options and a pair of diff drivers. Anyone else seeing this? Not really sure if it's 7 or the nvidia drivers.

Oh My Science posted:One problem I am facing is the use of my G15 keyboard. I read online that I should be able to use the vista x64 drivers for the drat thing, but so far no luck. Whenever I start the installer it simply states that it cannot be used with this operating system. Extract the files from the installer and run the .msi file directly. grrowl posted:Any ideas why my computer occasionally makes a random "Device removed" sound? I'll just be hanging out and I hear the familiar dee-doo when i haven't touched anything (or even when i'm running with no peripherals at all (laptop). Would this be in a log somewhere? Do you have a wireless card? Windows will shut it down when it's been idle for some amount of time. phosdex fucked around with this message at 08:23 on May 21, 2009 |

Mozzie posted:I don't feel what you guys are going all crazy about. I've been using it on my secondary computer and it just feels like what is expected from a computer. Nothing about it stands out as fantastic (besides being a replacement for the vista abortion and looking modern). I've been using OS X for a while now and I am completely underwhelmed by Windows 7. My mac is so awesome, I can't believe you guys use PCs.

queztal posted:I installed Windows 7 (build 7100) without AHCI enabled; if I enable it, obviously Windows won't boot since the driver isn't enabled. How simple is it to manually enable the driver for this to work? I found a post which explains how to do this, but if I enable the driver and Windows 7 won't boot for some reason, should Windows start without any issues if I disable AHCI in the BIOS again? That method worked for me to enable AHCI.

Martytoof posted:I have it set to sync to a time server in "Internet Time", but I'd like for this to happen on bootup if possible. It doesn't seem to do that. Is there any way to force it to sync when the system boots? The sync is done via Task Scheduler, modify its trigger in properties to sync at startup.

Does anyone else use recent builds of Media Player Classic - Home Cinema? A few builds ago they had a memory leak which supposedly was fixed with a more recent build. But ever since then, even if I go back to old builds (pre-memory leak) the leak persists. I can't figure this out, the program is just 2 files and I've even reset my .ini settings but after watching just 2 shows memory usage in Windows will climb over 3gb and I have to reboot.

8-bit Miniboss posted:Huh, when did Synergy go paid? I think it's been a couple years now. If you dig around enough you used to still be able to download it for free, not sure if that page is still on their site. I donated $5 a long time ago and got a lifetime key.
