May I recommend a night at the holodeck then, Captain?

Quote from Stang70Fastback :

1. Yes, it is compatible. PCI-E 2.0 (which is what the 8800GT is) is backwards compatible all the way back to PCI-E 1.0.

2. Why would you need to flash your BIOS to use a newer chip? I understand flashing the BIOS with the latest firmware IS good practice, but why is it necessary for you to use a 6000+? You may be right, but I wouldn't think that would be necessary.

My mobo's BIOS is version v1.20, and 6000+ is supported since v1.40.

let me get straigth to the questions right away:

1.
I have a Asrock AM2XLI-eSATA2 link motherboard. I plan to get an 8800 GT. Will it be compatible or not, seeing it is an older board, and apparetly 8800GT is a PCI-E 1.1 card,while my mobo is an PCI-E 1.0. Or have I got it all mixed up?

2.

Since the CPU I was thinking to get, was an AMD Athlon 6000+ X2, I'll have to flash the BIOS to a newer version. On the Asrock support site there is an windows utility for flashing, and there is also an DOS version of it. Which one is better to use, and If I were to use the windows one, the best would be to use it in safe mode, with all unecesarry programs off(i.e kill the firewall, antivirus).right? or leave that to the pros(This one is the most likely one probably)?

Thanks in advance.

You...you LIED to me!!! You tease! You heartbreaker!

Now...(sob) now I will never know true love....

actually, polyphony doesn't WANT damage yet. I quote:
"we are not going to add damage to our games until we can do it in a way that is totally authentic"

They actually don't want half assed damage systems like other games

You actually believe PolyPHONY's bullshit? My god, you really are gullable.

F3 is to save it.

And if you did that, then I'm not sure whats wrong

Well it is fixed now.

Now I have another question:

How to make it look less plastic-ish and less shiny?

I have a problem: I followed the guide to the letter, but it does not save the render picture....it finishes the render, but when I go to the folder I selected for saving, the picture is not there....

I wonder, will that number ever reach over 9000.

Quote from joen :

Some time ago I came across a website where you could generate your own numberplate image. There was a big variety of numberplates from various countries to choose from. You entered your own set of characters and it would generate an image of the numberplate you had chosen.
I googled around but I can't seem to find it again.
If anyone has the slightest idea of which site I'm referring to, please do tell

this?
