This may seem dumb, but which DVI port is your monitor connected to? Make sure it's connected to port 1, and make sure it's snug on both your monitor and card.

Quote from Jakg :

BTW - There is no "low power light" (that i'm aware of) - the only thing on the card that will show you anything besides the port on the back is the onboard speaker (on all 8800/9800 cards iirc) that shrieks when you don't put all the power plugs in.

This also applies if everything is plugged in to the card, but it's simply not getting enough amperage. Ball, I'd suggest finding a new PSU if you want to keep your 8800/9800.

Your Score Summary

Overall, you scored as follows:



66% scored higher (more stupid),
4% scored the same, and
30% scored lower (less stupid).

You are 30% stupid. This means...

You are kinda' smart. Many have done better, but you did much better than half the other test-takers! Good for you.

I'd love to grab $Bill Gates by his scrawny neck and slam into a huge pile of broken bottles for the distress he's caused people by not putting 2 little blocks of foam in the correct place.

When in doubt, blame Bill Gates. He's retired from Microsoft.

Man, i'd kill to be able to go to this.

Laptop GPU's are near impossible to change, and if you can, it's even closer to impossible to find a replacement. You should be able to send the laptop back in for a refund since you just got it.

Also, I have an old Ati Rage 128mb card in my server.

Here's me-

Wait! I'm making sure everyone sees the glitter on my face!

Serverside ads could be a real possibility. Instead of uploading them to LFS World, how about from the server itself? A person running a dedi would put their ads into an "Ads" folder, and connecting clients would download them directly from it. It could cause lag on servers with relatively low bandwith, but maybe the server operator could have an option on the max speed ad pictures are downloaded.

The 6150 has to go. Do you have an AGP or PCI-E slot?

Bit of a rant, but the Flat Earth Society imo are some of the craziest people i've ever seen, just short of the Phelps family. There's no debating with them on their forums, because all you will get back from them is "Read the FAQ", "The Earth is flat", or "Another victory for FE". The thing that really scares the shit out of me is that they are dead serious about this.

If you want to attempt to debate with them, be my guest. I guarantee you even Tristan will come back with his IQ down the drain.

Oh well. Maybe you could take a look at mine though

I think I may have an old Martinsville layout somewhere, let me dig it up.

EDIT- Here it is. Have to turn right though. You can edit it if need be.

Hey thanks for your query, I have checked out everything about you and I predict that your ideal job Jeremy Marsh is a Office Gopher. Good luck in your new career.

Well, better get to work! *burrows to office*

Try reinstalling LFS, and make sure you have Patch Y.

$4000 will get you the absolute best. Do you actually want to spend it all? Also, putting a computer together is not very hard, and gets much easier after your first time. Look on Youtube or Google for videos or guides on how to put a PC together.

For cars entering pit road under yellow, I'd suggest keeping the cars going in at safety car speed, and no overtaking going into pit road, or out of. The position you cross the line in will be the position you stay in when you reach the safety car. (Speeding up to reach the safety car from leaving pit road would be feasible, as not to cause incident from the safety car slowing in front of the cars that didn't pit.)

When the safety car was announced, not a single car slowed down a bit. I'm still waiting for a replay to look into, but until then I want to know from others why my car was spun and demolished. Other than that, great racing guys!

BST is the time zone you are in, right J@tko?

Thanks a ton! These are looking great so far.

Not working for me. I'm using Y18, so could someone make this into JPG format?

I tought you guys are running on a server of 500 servers?? Did you know that you can ask for a max of client slots (47) for a single event? Without paying more. We have 24/7, (23slots) 2 servers online from 500 servers. And they have told us that was possible if we needed that for 1 single event.

Cu on track

You can have 47 people in a server, but only 32 cars racing at one time. Count in the safety car and its 31.
