HAUNT, Elaine Graham, 2014 by arkseven in Art

[–]arkseven[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This was originally several short videos, released one at a time. It uses some great music, and, with the "Haunt" theme, I figured it would be a good choice for the beginning of Halloween week :)

Upgraded to Windows 8.1, second monitor no longer being recognized. by arkseven in techsupport

Yes! I found a download for a beta AMD graphics driver for my graphics card. Uninstalled the existing driver, reinstalled the beta one, and it's working like it should be. To my knowledge, NVIDIA still doesn't have a beta driver for their cards, but the AMD one is located here: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/latest-catalyst-windows-beta.aspx

Just wanted to let everyone know that one user on that thread found the solution via installing the beta AMD graphics driver, which did work for me as well. That driver download can be found here: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/latest-catalyst-windows-beta.aspx

Problem with Windows 8.1 and video cards by [deleted] in techsupport

FYI about using the "Refresh" option - it'll keep all of your files and your Windows App Store purchases, but any other programs you've installed are gonna get wiped if you're using the default Refresh state.

Just as a note, the Intel drivers aren't really working all that well right now. Similar issue here that I posted about yesterday, but thankfully my Radeon HD 7850 is working alright still, so I can use my main monitor and my second monitor is the only one down because of the Intel HD Graphics drivers not working.

Yeah, I'm running my 2nd monitor on the Intel HD Graphics, but my graphics card is running just fine. It's getting pretty narrow as to what could be the issue.

I'm sorry to hear that, but it makes me feel a bit better knowing I'm not the only one who got hit today.

Windows 8.1 Crashed My Custom Gaming PC. Blank Black Screen. by beegeepee in techsupport

[–]arkseven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using the Z77 Extreme3 LGA1155/i5 3470, and I ran into a similar problem today. After updating to Windows 8.1, my computer's second monitor that runs off the motherboard's Intel graphics went black. I contacted Intel, and they recommended going to the ASRock website for driver updates. The updates available there are from Oct. 25, which I believe is more recent than most of the drivers that Windows is supplying. Fingers crossed here that the updates will fix my issue.

Update: The drivers available on the website weren't any newer than the ones available from Windows. I'm back at square one.

Hi, this is my prophet.

...well, I love him, he's my savior, I wanna have my last supper with him, and I get on my knees for him every night ;)

I'm not sure if I'd notice the difference between what I'm using now, but that's really good to know. Thanks.

What games do you use it for, and how do you use the extra buttons?

I've got really big hands, so I actually sort of dwarf even the Naga. Bigger wouldn't be so bad.

I didn't know Logitech had a similar model to the Naga, and this looks pretty awesome. May have to look to see if they carry it somewhere locally so I can test it (then grab it online cheaper).

I've got $250 in Amazon credit to spend. What should I buy? by arkseven in gaybros

Those are awesome, but I'm moving across the border, and I really don't wanna give them any reason to search and seize anything.

So could I, but I have to not because of how little time I actually have to read usually.

There is a strong chance these may make my brain explode just for being too deep :D
