i bought the silver package a bit ago.

good value i think.

half life 2 is downloading.

half life source is also download.

can't wait to get going.

using a geforce fx 5600 amd hoping for the best.

if half life 2 plays pretty crappy i'll have fun with half life source until i get a new card.

I can play it on a Geforce440 go laptop card (only DirectX 7). It looks like crap but runs fine.

Good god. Ive been playing for 2 hours now.. Im amazed. Really. This game is incredible. The physics, the mood, Im ****ing losing my mind. Though this one part Im stuck in. Its this room you go into, its FILLED with explosive barrels. A whole bunch, then the little metal things start flying at you.. dont know where to go then. Anyone have a clue? Everywhere I go is a dead end... :huh:

I'm stuck in this room too. I figure you have to climb the ladder,. walk along the pipe,. go into the next room and turn the wheel. Then everything floods. I don't know where to go from here :no:

Anyone past this?

go up the ladder across the pipe to the other side, go through the tunnel up the ladder across the pipes to the other side of room, if you look down youll see a valve, turn it, go across into barrel room, down to sup lvl then through the pipe that was inacessable. from there get air(youll need it) swim to bottom free the Wire pylons to where they float, then jump on them to other side, congrats your through that maze

was it just me, or immediatly afte ryou left the train, you foudn out how to throw things, then immediatly started throwing baggage at teh combine and have them chase you around teh baggage cart all ticked, then continued to find everythign along they way and throw them at everything (even took the TV in the room witht he couple, yanked it from the wall and threw it at them)

its your system.. your overclocking and thats affecting the windows and game itself.. i've seen this happen on many other games.. it may work fine on some-but others it will just crap out.. :/

reduce the clock core by a few mhz.. see if that improves..

if its the pipe in teh barrel room, follow the pipe, dont try to go through that area where the buzzbirds came from

I dont get it though. I walk along that pipe and I cant jump that high. Theres a beam in the way. What the hell.. :cry:

    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
