Nah no patch out yet for arma2! It also seems to still have issues with nvidia cards and sli even since the latest drivers. a lot is banking on the imminent patch.

I had no idea we weren't getting a version of win7 that allows for simple upgrading from vista? wtf is that about? So are they getting that in US?

Rename the exe to crysis.exe or crysis64.exe or grab the EVGA SLI enchancements "patch" and it works fine with almost double the framerate in SLI.

i have found lots of sellers at the £79 price. No point in pre ordering at the release price. Just wondered if any one knew anywhere that had stock (joke) at the £49 price.

some sellers still have proffessional version at sub £90, may have to plump for that, xp mode sounds interesting, just need a 3.11 mode and I'll buy 10 copies!

No you can't blame overclockers for not advertising their competitors, how daft would that be? After all google etc are really hard to use. As I posted I prefer to shop here, even when it's a little more expensive (a little mind!), just finding the redacted culture leaves a little bitter after taste.

Release price will be £149 and it will go later IIRC.

Tried it all. Those are old solutions now but didn't work properly anyway. There really is no solution atm and bohemia know what needs fixing.

as far as I know you won't get win7 for £49 anymore, I think MS only allocated so many copies for that which went by the end of the day they went on sale lol

Grab a copy for £79 as it's still quite a discount from the £149 actual price tag

so i've found out. Don't know how old bill does it but here sure knows how to turn a fast buck.

Will go with the RC for now, saves me £49 over the pre-order

He still has influence though, regardless of his non-executive chairman status and that Steve Ballmer (you almost had it right) is now chief executive officer.
