Suggest Free Anti-Virus Other Than AVG

I've been using AVG for years but have started having a problem where it won't update or re-install. I may need to try some other program- any suggestions?

Re: Adding Screen Resolutions?

Control Panel worked. Once Windows had the resolution listed it showed up as a option in the game.

Re: Adding Screen Resolutions?

Thanks, that worked. However I don't know if it will get me any better game performance. How are you making out with the CEM in ClOD Sneaky? I can't seem to avoid blowing up the engine unless I turn off overheating.

Adding Screen Resolutions?

I would like to be able to try running CoD at a lower resolution, but the only ones available are not 16:10- which means they are stretched horizontally or vertically. My monitor's native res is 1680x1050. I would like to be able to try 1400x900, but it's not listed either in-game or in windows or n...

Re: Any Way To Overclock An HP?

Or better yet, get a faster CPU that is compatible with the MB; http://www.superbiiz.com/detail.php?nam ... Hz-AM3-OEM
This will get me from 2.8 to 3.2 without having to OC.

Re: Any Way To Overclock An HP?

I'm a little too risk-averse for that approach- last time I tried flashing the BIOS, even using an update from the HP site, I wound up having to do a complete restore. Perhaps down the road I should just look for a bare-bones (Case, MB, CPU) system that will let me reuse everything else.

Any Way To Overclock An HP?

I have an HP desktop (p6310y) with a pegatron violet MB and an AMD AthlonII x4 630 CPU. The CPU is clocked to 2.8G and I would like to be able to try overclocking it. However HP seems to have taken steps to prevent overclocking of their computers. The BIOS has no way to set the clock multiplier and ...

Is there any reason why this should work? He's not offering any explanation.
