    My brother put the GeoForce 5000 3-d video card on my old computer. I partial solved the mouse freezeing problen by removeing in the control panel system the PS2 mouse thing and only useing the HID mouse thing. Also diableing open app seem to help.

    The big problen is the overactival Sun which is more active sent out more powerful solar flares than record by science. The sun for the last 3 or 4 year supose to be in the low solar actively cycle. Tese solar flare can effect senstive electron gadget like computer.

    :roll:

    So, it was the solar flares that caused me to work a 20 hour days in last week? Wow, I'm sure that my boss will gladly pay my overtime when I tell him it was just a solar flares.

    How about you just take that computer of yours to someone who can actually fix it.

    I know, it is actually quite funny to read (or try to) what he responds.

    The Sun is than powerful EMP generator in it own right. They are only fine out now. The Solar Radiate can knock out comm satile and other satile ability to work, it can effect radio comm, in North West terr of Canada one solar flare that hit the Earth melt afew thousand mile of powerline. Only simple thing like electric stove and refigator arenot effect at all. It also make the Northen and Southern light stronger, it can effect weather also.

    Death at the door: Nothing Charles said in his last post warrants mockery. Its all pretty much accurate. Except for the whole "solar flare that hit the earth" bit... solar flares don't actually 'hit' the earth... I'd laugh pretty hard if one did though... I mean, if I wasn't on fire or melting or anything...

    No, I just love how he switched from GeForce 5000 to astrology/physics. Plus, I do own a GeForce FX.

    Yeah, that's true too. I got the low-performance one and it's FX 5200. Hey! At least it had FarCry bundled!

    Well it could be worse, think about the combination of S3 ViRGE and a VooDoo card (that is voodoo 1), actually someone who I know has still that kind of combination and he tried to get some new game to run with that.

    But then again, with that kind of people around it is easy to make some money.

    I remember my Voodoo 3. Damn, that was the only thing Ultima IX could run on...
    Seriously, though, people menaged to run Doom 3 on Voodoo 2. Shitty results but hey, it's possible!

    I beg to differ. My GeForce FX 5200 is no better performance-wise than my old Hercules GeForce 2 GTS I replaced. The only difference is that it did not support bump-mapping and not all reflective surfaces.
    However believe me I'd buy a Radeon 9600 XT if I could.

    Amen, Matah. Charles why aren't other people suffering from your solar flares. It sounds as if the problems with computers should be universal not limited to you.

    :eek: Some people got way too much time in their hands, hmm... Well I it is possible thou, fast enough CPU, lots of memory and dual voodoo 2 cards that could do the trick.

    And Matah, no it doesn't exist, nVidia hasn't made any GeForce 5000 (nor FX 5000) GPUs.
