awww my favourite!

Direct3D Setting Enhancement

Previous versions of the ATI display driver required the monitor going blank for up to 8 seconds when applying Direct3D settings. The latest ATI software driver for the RADEON? 9500 and higher class of products now allows for the Direct3D setting to be applied without the monitor's display going blank.

that black flash was annoyin:D:D

Not a gatecrasher fan?

I was actually going to be the gatecrasher forum administrator, but the gatecrasher staff are so unorganised that I actually didn't get to do anything in the 2 weeks I spent offering my services. Now have a job so bugger em. Not been to Gatecrasher for 19 months now, tho I am going to Sheffield at the end of the month to see some old uni mates.

    • "No. The "New Outlook for Windows" does not support non-cloud mailboxes (such as on-premises Exchange servers). Furthermore, because the New Outlook effectively functions as a web-based client, it requires all connected accounts—even standard IMAP or POP accounts—to route and cache data through Microsoft's cloud servers. You can verify the accepted account setups using the Microsoft Supported Account Types Guide." Built to fail "New" Outlook is basically just webmail in a window wrapper and it's usefulness reflects that.
