    CRT Monitor Software Degauss !

    But my motherboard is 760G series AMD chipset. Can I install the Intel Extreme drivers? Wouldn't it cause conflics etc with the AMD Catalyst driver? Would this even work with the Digilite AMD motherboard, I mean degauss.

    IMDB Authentication

    Isn't there some way to exclude IMDB, having the same problem :( These mobile call companies are pretty smart, if you register for DND, they choke up useful messages too like this one and if you don't register they send loads of AD messages everyday which one has to keep deleting.

    2GB RAM Shows as 1.5GB..

    OK I will change the UMA Frame Buffer Size to 256MB in Bios later, there is no problem now as such. Didn't buy these upgrades with the intention of playing games, I am always been a casual gamer till now. Games released up to 2007-2008 should work fine I guess. Thanks for your help friends...

    2GB RAM Shows as 1.5GB..

    So I have 128MB onboard memory and I should set 128MB from RAM as shared memory (total 256MB) in Bios instead of my current setting of 512MB (total ~700MB), is this correct. Bit confused here, 256Mb is enough for HD3000.. but what if it needs more at some point. Is this memory consumption...

    New Samsung LED SA300 Tilt & Viewing Angle

    Thanks Anand, the monitor stand does kind of suck considering it's a new model. I placed a cut sponge piece from the monitor packing under the stand so it looks a bit better now without showing. Under the link I quoted in the first post, Tech Specs > Stand > Function > Tilt. What is that ! False...
