AT&T is honestly just the absolute worst in the US!

honestly, VLC Media Player is my go-to

Take it apart, fix it up, put it back together...

Nice topic
just don't get why you've got two hours?

hollowpilot91 said:... so is that actually true?🤷

nah, not really

You don't really need any extra software, man.

Your camera works fine—if you want to jump on a video call with someone, just grab Skype and you can actually see each other.

Heard somewhere that the registry in Windows 7 got some upgrades... anyone got the scoop on that?

rustyviper92 said:How do I get my games to go full screen on Windows 7? Right now I've got these huge black bars on both sides. I tried changing the resolution in the game settings and messed around in Catalyst control, but nothing's working.
.

what game are you playing?
if it's an older one, it probably just doesn't support widescreen (assuming you're using a widescreen monitor).

Anyone know if there's any word on when we might see an SP 1 for Windows 7?

nah he should just log off, i reckon 🙂

if I'm getting this right...
you just copy the text, paste it into Word, and now someone can find the page via some random tag?
doesn't really sound right to me.
unless they type a few lines into Google, then if it shows up in the results with all those words together, they find the site.

lol true!

nah

you gotta go into your BIOS and tell it to actually boot from the CD/DVD drive first

something's a bit off...

northernviper14 said:I've got a bunch of old rigs with a Pentium 4 2.4, 512 MB of RAM, an ATI Radeon 9500, and Windows XP SP3. It runs perfectly smooth—no lag at all. I'm wondering if Windows 7 would actually work okay on this, or if I should just stick with XP. Thanks.

honestly, XP was made for you👍

Carl Ruiz2 said:I can't get this 16GB Sony Vaio USB drive I grabbed on eBay to format, no matter what I try. Anyone got a fix? Thanks ahead of time.

Need more info if you want help, man. Is it throwing an error code or something?

placidcobra49 said:1. You can upload about 10 mins of video at once to YouTube.
2. Just grab any of those million converters to get it into one format. Since .ifo and .bup aren't actually video files anyway, just convert everything—say, to MPEG2 using iMovie—then merge and save it as a .wmv or something.

Yeah, I'm with them on this one. 🙏

haha

i'd probably just toss Windows XP SP3 on there (x64 if i can get it, but no biggie)

Alexander Hughes47 said:can i make it so when I click All Programs it looks like it did back in XP? right now everything is just all crammed together in one spot

nah ☕

So you mentioned the registry
what software are you using to clean it? I've been running CCleaner and Glary Utilities lately, but is there anything better out there?

so it's probably activated 🙂
EDIT: i'm good now
you try restarting your computer?
for me, Windows is Activated usually just pops up after a restart 🤷
