Cannot install vpn network adapters on windows 7 ultimate 64bit?
I really hope someone can help me out here. Im tring to play an online game with a friend through a third party vpn client such as hamatchi howerver when i install them the installers cannot add the vpn drivers for some reason.I have a realteck PCIe GBE family controller for my network adapter. I have tried everything i can think of including uninstalling eset nod32 which is supposed to have compatability issues.Windows network troubleshooter doesnt come up with anything either.I have also reset the network drivers and any other setting i could think of. The reason im trin g over vpn is that ubisofts servers are crap and just wont let me on to play.Anyway if anybody has a solution it would be greatly appreciated.
3 AnswersComputer Networking1 decade agoCrossfire in 16x\4x question?
Im hoping someone can answer this question as im having a hard time finding the info through google. I own an m4a785td-v evo motherboard ( http://uk.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=fcsXWSxnhzZE9... ) and a ati 5770 graphics card. I am hoping to buy a second one soon but am concerned the pcie 2.0 x4 lame might bottleneck it. Has anybody tried crossfire in 16x\4x config and if so wat were the results. some of the info ive read so far have suggested it should be fine as its pcie 2.0 as opposed to pcie1.1. Thanks in advance.
3 AnswersAdd-ons1 decade agoOld ati card as physics card?
I recently purchased an ati 5770 graphics card and it does a great job on all new games.However i was wondering if i could use my old ati 4650 to boost performance (posibly as a physics card). I have googled this several times and the answers are vague and mixed.I Know you can do this with nvidia cards but is there a similer system for ati.
2 AnswersAdd-ons1 decade agoCpu fan running too fast and loud?
My cpu fan has been running very fast recently and is way too loud. Also my cpu temps are idleing round 50c. I dont no wat caused this prob as the fan used to auto adjust its speed. I have cleaned out the dust out of the heatsink and that hasnt helped and i dont think its the thermal compound as i havnt taken the heatsink off since i built it. My proccesor is the amd phenom 955 be clocked at stock speed(3.2ghz) im am also using the stock cooler. My case has plent of ventilation( 2 80mm exaust fans on the back a 80 mm intake on the side and a 120mm intake on the front). i know its not these fans as i stopped the cpu one with my finger for a second and it went quiet. Also my cable management is not the prob as there isnt a wire to be seen in the case. Hope someone can help as its doing my head in. Thanks in advance.
