    New Monitor, Bad Colors.

    Well thanks for the help everyone. Spent all day yesterday messing with it and couldnt get anything resolved. Took it back to the store, they didnt have a replacement, they refused to give me a refund, they didnt even offer to plug it in and have a look themselves. I was forced to use my...

    New Monitor, Bad Colors.

    Without drivers it has a max rate of 85 hertz. With drivers it can go up to 100 hertz at 1280x960 but the higher I set it the smaller the actual screen size is? The closest it comes to full screen is when its set at 75 hertz and it shrinks in size as I set the refresh rate higher. I have...

    New Monitor, Bad Colors.

    Yea, shouldve mentioned that. I did install the drivers and the natural colors program that came with it but it didnt seem to improve a thing. Photoshop wouldnt run the color profile that the software installed so I disabled it. Never needed any dell drivers as the old monitor always looked good...

    New Monitor, Bad Colors.

    Has anyone got a Samsung 21" syncmaster 1100p plus? It was kind of an impulse buy so I didnt do any research on it before the purchase but it looked good in the store. It has nice features and all but I cant seem to get any decent colors on it. Whites are really yellow and blacks are hazy...

    Internet Explorer and variants (MyIE, Avant, etc) discussion

    For some reason IE wont allow me to view source on web pages and doesnt seem to be caching anything either. I installed MyIE a couple months ago and it was working back then but now its doing the same thing as IE. All my settings match up with my other machine that isnt having this problem so Im...

    Didnt there used to be an edit button here somewhere? <looks around> Just out of curiosity, why did this only seem to affect photoshop? Nothing else has ever had this problem?

    photoshop icons snafu

    Heh ...yep I knew about the preview, like I said the files on the left are showing correctly. Just noticed this though, as mentioned above when I rename a file it snaps back to the correct view, but if I rename it back to what it was before, it once again shows the incorrect view? I dont...

    photoshop icons snafu

    Ive had this annoying little problem for ages now, even after many windows reinstalls. I kinda learned to live with it but am curious if anyone has any ideas? My saved photoshop psd files eventually end up using different file icons. (Some of which Ive never seen before). After installing...

    NEW Call Of Duty "Dawnhill" Demo (better)

    This was supposed to be an exclusive release for people who bought the December issue of PC Gamer. As usual though it somehow got leaked. Most sites wont be putting it up until sometime later since its not an official release.

    Opened the Valve, NO Steam!

    The beta is no more. The full version has taken its place. Theres several different varieties of the full version as well. A huge 700+ MB one that contains all the mod files, and individual mod versions of steam as well with a smaller size. The CS 1.6 Installer seems to be the one most people...

    If you have a problem with BF1942 1.45 patch read

    Im still using 1.4 as well. I always give it a week or two before switching over. But Ive seen tons of DC servers running 1.45 since the day the patch came out. Havent heard any complaining yet so I assume its working fine.

    HalfLife2 Will Still be Released in September

    Heh, the modders are already coming out in droves and the public SDK hasnt even been released yet. (although a few special people have it ;) ) Check out this link for a current list of mods already being worked on. Of course, 90% of them will probably never even get to alpha, but the ones that...

    LOL, As I was working my way down this thread, I was gonna recommend the logitech 2.4 cordless as well. But it seems you already have it so Ill just say congratulations instead. It really is a nice stick. Best Ive ever used.

    TV out wires question

    Your card should have came with an adapter. Just a tiny little thing that you use to connect the Svideo and RCA cables together for situations where Svideo isnt on the t.v. itself. If it didnt come with your card, Ive bought them at radio shack before, but it was like 15 bucks for the little...
