    Help Please

    Why 7Zip instead of RAR Roger, in a short easy to understand explanation. Sorry for the hijack.
  2. You know, I always thought it was an inside joke about Painless, but now with this photographic evidence. O- well to each his own.
  3. Happy Birthday mate, many more to follow.
  4. Hi Gambler, I have sitting next to me a computer I put together for friend and its nearly what you have planned. I have ran CoD and it looks fine to me, the 69xx cards are showing 2 blue lines on the horizon, but those on the forums say a fix from ATI is coming. I went with the Intel i5- 2500K over the 2600K, cheaper and for gaming its suppose to be as good as the 2600, just lacks some threaders that have nothing to do with gaming. Motherboard is an ASUS Sabertooth P67, as for GPU, Radeon HD6950, again a bit cheaper, it can be flashed to the same specs as 6970. Have fun, I love putting them together, the suspense to see if it fires up is quite a rush.
  5. I've made two purchases from Just Flight, all very easy to follow and set up. On the second purchase of CoD for a friend computer I even received a discount on some points I earned from the first purchase, about 5$ off.
  6. May all your Birthdays be happy and your landings be safe... Pooka

    Videos Won't Play

    Tried the "Run as Admin...", didn't help. I'll try the compatibility in a few different modes, messed with that before but will try again. The games are any where from three to five years old, I've had this problem on about 10 different games (CDs). I'll Dl some older and newer drivers, let ya know soon.
  8. Nice TOAD and doesn't appear to be to far away. From what I saw its at the Columbia County Airport a little over 150 miles north. Good luck on a closer look see.

    Videos Won't Play

    Hi Guys, I put a computer together for a grand daughter, it works fine except for the most important detail, it won't play video games from CDs or DVDs. The machine is way over built, I only know how to build gaming computers. ASUS P8P67 LE, Intel i-3-2100, ATI Radeon 5770 with Cosair memory and PSU (650), Windows 7(64). It works fine but when you try to start "I Spy" the starting advertisement runs, it asks that you type in your name and when clicking to proceed the screens becomes black and the game stops responding. Other games do just about the same or flash that the game is 32 bit and we should consult our vendor for a different format. I've messed with the compatibility settings and screen resolution to no avail. Anyone else had this happen or think of a solution? Thanks.....
  10. Shoot, I been out of town for a few days, did you all have a good time at the party? (Slight southern drawl so he'll understand) Many more to follow T O A D.

    Got Me A Trojan

    I've had the best luck fixing friends computers, since I never visit those sites, ughm... Malwarebytes and SpyBot and sometimes I've had to go to Safe Mode and then run them, but these two have always found the culpert.
  12. Happy Easter to all, and hope to do some flying. Will stop by the Zoo tomorrow and maybe on Sunday too for a while.
  13. I'll be there, but will leave for a time, Dr Appt.
  14. Thanks Brando, I'll give them a go.
  15. I think its more of just turning some applications down or off. The ground was a lot more detailed prior but still looks pretty good.
  16. The next class is having its first gathering today , called SEPS, they explain what will come and make sure your computer is set up correctly. The first class will be Wednesday. I'll send a Email to Painless to see if he can find out if your in this class or the next. Sent a message to Painless, I'm not sure he'll be able to find out ahead of time on who is in each class. If you just signed up a few days ago I doubt that they'd get you in this quick, I waited a month or longer. Anyway he knows of this post and should get back to us soon.
  17. This new computer has a HIS HD6950 Turbo 2GB graphics card. I'm not that familiar with this new a card, I'm using a 4890. Could someone that has a card in this generation, send me your settings that you use in the CCC. Thanks
  18. Got it all squared away, now to straighten out some graphic problems and its good to go. Thanks
  19. OK, I think I'm a little closer, no JSGME file in my current V4.10.1m So what I need to know is where do I find the JSGME stuff. On my computer I have an old file UP201, might it be in there? Hopefully in Coops today, someone will break through the blockage in my brain.
  20. Hi Mates, A friend I was in the Marine Corps with and the person that introduced me to IL-2, commissioned myself to build him a computer that will fly IL-2 online with the Dogz. Should BG find him worthy. I have a pure copy of 4.09 saved in a file by itself in the C drive. I then took another pure 4.09, added the no crack mod and dled 4.10 patch, now when the game opens now it shows V4.10m, I'm guessing that I need to add the latest patch to get to V4.10.1m Next could you tell me what step I go through to get the JSGME Mod Enabler into the game? Thanks for any help, here is what I put together: Cooler Master Sniper Case ASUS P67 Sabertooth motherboard Intel i5-2500K CPU HIS Radeon HD6950 Turbo GPU Corsair Vengeance 8GB RAM Corsair HX850 PSU WD 300 GB Raptor Hard Drive WD 750 GB Hard Drive Windows 7 Premium 64 bit OS Thanks for any help or suggestions...
  21. I've got one on pre-order Jim, if you require a disc I can put in for another and get it to you as soon as it arrives here. (Meet you in Detroit) GoGamers
  22. Hey Bucky, the cheque arrived. Not bad, for the Postal Services, a letter delivered in 26 days. Terry Fox could have brought it here faster than that. Thanks for taking those off my hands, hope you enjoy....
  23. Way to go Bojan, those few days of flying with the Dogz put the razor back on your edge. Good for you mate.

    Holy Sh*t!

    If it had been a 38 then its Fenrir, but with the Wing Smoke its just Jedi screwing around.
  25. Bucky, on my last build, about 7 months ago, I went with a Intel motherboard from ASUS. On such a board you can use either AMD or NVIDA for a graphics card. The CPU had to be Intel, but the graphics could be either manufacture, SLI or Crossfire didn't matter. So if you want to go with the 6970, your still able to use either type MoBo. This is what I'm using: ASUS P6X58D Premium MoBo Intel i7-920 CPU HIS Radeon 4890 Turbo+ GPU Mushkin Redline Memory 6GB Western Digital Hard Drives 300 & 74 GB Raptors Corsair 850HX PSU CoolerMaster Hyper 212 CPU Cooler Windows 7 Home Premium 64 I've got the itch again since you & BG started this, its a lot of fun to build yourself. I had someone that knew what they were doing watch over while I put it together, but have built two since. Not that hard mate.
