I would measure the voltage given by the power adapter with a voltmeter, and compare it to what it says on the adapter (it has to say what output voltage it should have).

Are you sure you have the right drivers installed? The ones from the logitech site?

It's AGP right?

He probably just uploaded it and deleted it right away, people have done that in the past.

I think anik is just curious how LFS would perform on that particular computer, as he already has another gaming rig which he plays regularly on.

I agree with both responses, Celeron is very weak, in fact the entire system is weak, so 30 fps would be normal for such a system.

On another note, I notice you said it's a plasma tv. I think it might not be a good idea to have a computer hooked up to a plasma tv, it could cause burn-in for parts of the screen which are always visible (such as the taskbar in Windows). If things remain on the screen for too long, they will be burned into the screen and if you start watching a movie or something you might see a ghost of your taskbar. It's a big disadvantage that plasma tvs have, that's one reason why they're not as popular as they once were.

Well it really depends on the motherboard as not all Socket A motherboards support up to the 3200 CPU. If it came with a 1.2 GHz CPU, then I don't have much hope for it, it might only support up to Athlon 1.4 GHz. It *might* support Athlon XP CPUs, but you'd have to check the motherboard's specifications. Even then it might only support up to Athlon XP 2100 (I'm speaking from experience here, I've had such a motherboard in the past).

The Duron is one of the worst CPUs ever made, worse than Celeron. It's a budget CPU, so it was never meant to do more than word processing and web browsing. If you put an Athlon in there then it will probably be faster, but there's no point in upgrading such an old computer.

10 months? Who taught you to count? By my count it's been almost 7 months.

Maybe because its handling is very bad.

If nothing works, buy an air conditioner for your PC.

No it sounds like the motherboard might be providing too much power for some reason, maybe the voltage regulators are failing or something. I would try that CPU in a different motherboard and see if it's the same problem.

*shift light : not possible
*guages : car already has gauges
*sound : car already makes sound
*bov(blow off valve) : car already has bov

Oh, and demo racers don't have access to the XRT.

If the CPU temp really is that high then the heatsink is not touching it correctly, or maybe there is too much thermal paste. Does the heatsink heat up? Can you touch it and see? Careful not to burn yourself. Maybe try underclocking the CPU, or undervolt it. Actually, you could try setting the BIOS to default (factory) settings.

If the shifter is lower than your shoulder then it should be fine. Otherwise, you need to replace your chair!

Ummm actually, I do know what the hell that is. I'm from eastern europe, I know exactly what communism was like, probably better than you do.

Quote from ConorD1 :My point in that is that you nor no one else is better that me in anyway that is also my point that Scawen is working on LFS so why are you argueing with me this is the reason threads on this forum go like this Im not trying to insult you Im just saying how I feel can you understand?

I'm not arguing with you, I'm just trying to let you know that this thread will not accomplish anything.

We're all equal? I had to lol at that, you communist! We are not all equal!

Guess what? This IS one of "those" threads again. This stuff did not need to be said again, we all have different opinions about what is really going on in the background, mine is that Scawen is hard at work on perfecting those new physics. Other people might have different opinions, but we don't need this topic to be brought up all the time. I predict this thread will be deleted/locked by the end of the day.

Quote from Feffe85 :

Uhm.. maybe you should learn to read then?



But yeah.. if you're using SVGA (800x600) you must have a GREAT screen / gfxcard ^^

Ignorelist? lol...

Perhaps YOU should read the whole thread, you just took what he said out of context. He meant he's using 1680x1050 with A VGA CABLE. He never said that particular resolution was called VGA.

That's good to hear, it's too bad you went through so much hassle with it!

Only thing I can think of is to set your BIOS to factory default settings (clear CMOS) and see if it works.
