This is fine. Do you have an actual problem or were just not wanting to try this setup without asking about it?

Your system should work fine with this setup.



I just installed it, haven't played yet. I've never seen this type of cable before so I was just curious before actually playing. This cable was used on my old card and now i'm using it on this new card because there isn't enough room for the new cables that came with it.

Anyway, I was just curious, thanks for the replys.

Here is a picture of the cable.


It shouldn't cause a problem. I run SLI 560Ti's off a Corsair TX650, which also requires two molex adapters on top of the two 6 pins. I have yet to blow anything up, and I've probably tried harder than you plan to.

Hey guys and girls. I need some tech support now
Its not really a big problem, so I didnt feel like making a new thread for it.
I cant seem to launch SC2 from the normal SC2 shortcut, all I get up is the launcher with a message saying "Failed to read a required file. Please close all other applications, temporarily deactivate your anti-virus software, and try again". BUT i can how ever launch sc2 from the SC2Switcher?
Anyone know how to fix it? Im not sure if I will be able to download new patches when I use the SC2Switcher, since it doesnt go threw the SC2 launcher window.

this happened when I put my EU copy with my NA copy... basically you have a corrupt file. What I did was remove the mod folder in /programfiles/starcraft II/ mods. First copy it over, and make a back up! IMPORTANT, as the game will download the corrupt files automatically, however it wont download the full folder. Its around 3 gigs though only draw back. and you then copy over the files and hit merge on folders and skip on overwriting files, and it will add back in the files that SC2 didnt download. and you should be able to use the launcher fine now.

On a side note i do know the logs list the files that are bad =/ however its like 40 some files and its just easier to redo the whole folder, instead of trying to figure out which one...



Ok now for a question from me... Is there any way to switch the variables.txt file between US and GB languages automatically?

EDIT 2: Nevermind, uninstalling an unnecessary sound driver fixed it.
EDIT 3: It seems that I might have damaged one of my RAM sticks.

I've recently repasted the CPU and GPU of my laptop with Windows 7.
Now when I go into any SC2 or LoL game (but Europa Universalis 3 works fine) the following happens:
The program freezes and turns white, music starts to stutter and slow, and the waiting icon goes on the cursor. Ctrl + Alt + Delete works, but Task Manager is unresponsive to buttons. I am forced to hard reboot.
When I run the 720 preset in Furmark, the same happens.
Could this be a result of a bad GPU pasting job?

EDIT: Should I make an individual thread?

My computer switches from windows 7 basic to aero 3 hours into a prime95 blend test. Unstable overclock? No that's not a typo, it goes from basic to aero.

How well will this (click Details and Specs) laptop run SC2/D3/WoW on high-ultra settings? High FPS or will I have to lower settings maybe?

Only a GT630M so don't count on it. It'll run those games easy enough on lower settings however.

I have the GT 640M with the same CPU and low-medium works fine to the late game. I haven't tried high settings but I reckon SC2's FPS would drop quite a bit going into the late game, especially if its versus Zerg.

Is the video card really that weak?

I currently play SC2 on a laptop: E6600 @ 2.2 GHz dual core, Radeon 4650. I can play low settings till the mid-game fine with 60 fps, then it drops to 30 and mid-late game bigger battles are about 8-15 fps. It seems strange that a laptop with a significantly better CPU wouldn't do a lot better than this this. I can play on medium settings on this machine with basically the same results. I expect that machine will at least play on high settings in 1v1 near fine. (One user on the Futureshop website with a slightly less powerful machine reported "not dipping below 80 fps on ultra settings in SC2" with the same video card but I'm taking that with a grain of salt.)

Is a vcore of 1.20v safe for a 3570k 24/7 OC? My temps are usually ~38C idle, ~45C in game and ~70C during prime95 blend.

Has anyone had this kind of sc2 error?

[image loading]

If yes, how should I fix it on my computer?

Edit:

Fixed it myself. I went to: C:\ProgramData\Battle.net\Agent\Agent.1363\Logs
then I read the file repair-on-demand.log only to see C:/StarCraft II/Mods/Challenges.SC2Mod was faulty. I deleted the mod file, and re-opened the launcher which dealt with everything else.

Note: The agent folder isn't static, I mean you need to go to latest Agent.# folder.

Looks like javascript might be off. Where that option is depends on the version of FF. In the latest version it's under "Content" in the main options menu.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

I am looking into whether or not I can run 4 monitors. I have an HD 6950 with 2 DVI ports, 1 D-Port, and 1 HDMI port. I currently have 3 DVI monitors plugged in to the 2 DVI ports and the D-Port (via an active adapter), leaving me with an open HDMI port.

I've read some stuff online about daisy chaining D-Port monitors, a D-Port hub that effectively does that chaining, etc. but that doesn't quite answer my question directly.

Can I simply plug an additional monitor into the HDMI port and run it as is? If I use something other than an HDMI monitor (e.g. a DVI monitor), do I need a special kind of adapter (i.e. an active adapter like I use for my D-Port) or just any old DVI -> HDMI adapter?

I find this is generally some kind of caching issue such that if you clear our your cache it will go back to normal. Normally it's the CSS that drives that level of formatting.

The thing is that this only happens to some internet pages I visit. So could this really be be a Java problem?

Clearing cache also doesn't help

Not java, javascript. They are two very different things. Also, to your question, yes. Though, if you're really curious, why don't you take the 6 seconds needed to change the option and see if it works...

Where do I activate it? Under "extras -> settings -> addons ->plugins"?

There it is activated (Java Deployment Toolkit and Java Platform SE) and also updated.

Off of the top of my head (please check and verify), you can't at all. With both DVI ports used, the HDMI is unusable. IIRC the AMD GPUs only have the hardware to handle two TMDS streams at once (DisplayPort doesn't use this), or something like that.

Do you have any integrated graphics you could possibly use? Or just get a cheapo graphics card to handle the last display.

Latest Firefox, or...? Why not just search for where the option is for your Firefox version?

Again, JavaScript, not Java. Actually, it might be something else entirely, but let's get this out of the way first.
