AFAIK that would require the use of two soundcards, IL2 routed through the better one and TS through the other. Practically speaking I am not sure it is possible though. This is why many use USB headsets that have their own virtual sound card, again I have never actually tried it...

Bloody hell, he can write too!

Welcome m8, good to have you aboard (good for us that is, not sure if it is good for you though )

Which pictures and where? I got IE7 here too, but Firefox 2.0 is much better, it ignores missing graphics so I don't feel guilty!

Did you completely remove the drivers, and run driver cleaner?

...and maybe you haven't either! On the IL2 home page:

Bloody hell M8, what a nightmare! Been one of those weeks I guess. When I upgraded the wrong site, thinking I was uploading to this site...doh! Bloody tabbed ftp explorer. For once my backup routine worked, operating on a 'don't change anything until it's backed up and then back it up when done' is good policy

That's better. Now if I type microsoft it works, but .microsoft it doesn't. And how about 'Microsoft'. Could post by the way Sunflower, that is quite a gotcha there isn't it!

I'm going to have to fix that word censor, aren't I?

Nice...is such an ineffective word

I guess that is what is meant by 'NTL Hell' M8. Could be time to consider an alternative ISP unless you are locked into a contract. You are on ADSL right? In which case you may well be on ADSL Max already, or about to be upgraded to it. Be advised that you will experience increased latency as they will 'interleave' the packets to improve reliability, a good ISP will turn interleaving off...but I'm not sure NTL fall into that category. Also if going to ADSL Max you will experience frequent time outs and slow downs as the line tests and stabilises itself, normally over a ten day period.

Let us know how it goes at your daughters. Post back here with result, I get an email for any post in the help section....sad bastard that I am. There are several reasons why a drive will do this, first step is an alternate USB port... After that we roll our sleeves up

Dxdiag looks good. Only thing to experiment with is sound acceleration, having it accelerated is taking CPU cycles. If it sounds OK on 'Standard' and you get a lift in FPS (following Bblokes test guide above) then great. To lower it run the Dxdiag tool, and lower acceleration on the sound tab. SB Live vs nForce....performance wise the same, quality wise I'd say the nForce is better.

I for one could be arsed to read your Dxdiag for you m8 So post away!

CH have released a new version of their CM. [ftp=ftp://ftp.chproducts.com/pub/CHCMv4.1_32bit.exe]CM 4.1[/ftp] Trying it now, 4.0 was buggy for me and often went on CPU resource eating binges LOL well spotted Jim, right link wrong tag....it's ftp so wont work in an http tag! Fixed

Thanks guys. In true DangerDogz style I started my birthday with a hangover, but only a mild one as I had to sample the bottle of whisky I got from the missus @ 12:30

Ah...the K9 Exorcist has joined us

That's because he was born in 1861....according to his profile. Who am I to argue? Good spot m8!

I cleared out my cache. A lot of them were corrupt or 0Kb size. IIRC this was a known issue in days of yore, and there was a recommendation to clear the cache now and again....

My Other Hobby? Well I guess you're posting on it...

:notworthy: :notworthy: Thank you guys. Calendar? Why on earth would any one resort to clicking on the calendar Colin? @ Kelly: 46....as it says on the Calendar

TY Bbloke!
