  1. One thing to check...look at your hosts file (usually in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc) and see if there are any changes there.

    No, I believe that that perk was if you purchased the Good vs. Evil pack that contained the code on the Pocket D card inside.
  3. If it ever did, it would just take someone .5 seconds to claim.
  4. I wonder how people can be claiming them that fast!
  5. I would also suspect a network issue. I have had zero problems with it (other than, for some bizarre reason, something doesn't like a friends Ventrilo client).

    Does safe mode help at all?
  6. Check this thread. If what is said there is true, then it's Intel that needs to fix the drivers.

    Would recommend getting a different video card if possible.

    I would think that should be a completely valid option as well, unless the user just has an AGP slot (though I think you can still get cards for it, they appear to be getting more and more scarce).

    Otherwise looks like good news!
    Ditto here.
  9. I have had no problems with Win 7 64 and CoH. I have an Nvidia 8800gt running 196.21 drivers. I'm guessing updating your drivers didn't help.

    There's a program someone wrote called 'CoHelper' (I think). post the results and I'm sure someone can provide more advice.

    The 9800 is nothing but a slightly overclocked version of the same card.

    Performance won't be great, but I'll be able to turn all the ultra mode goodies on.
    I've got an 8800GT and was debating on upgrading to a GTX260.

    I think I'm in the same boat. They'll turn on but not have great performance.
  11. Bill,

    A little OT, but:

    I was wondering what card you're using for your Nvidia rig?
  12. I have a custom boss that I created and I only want one of him to spawn in the map, but MA is also spawning him as LT's throughout.

    I read a bit on the stickies, wondering, would I have to create another Boss mob so MA can pick that instead of the one I don't want it to use?

    Are you talking quad sli? Cause as far as I knew, the game engine only supported 2 cores right now and haven't heard of that changing. Or am I missing something?

    Lime jello not a problem...blueberry-lime, not a fan.

    Back OT, was planning to get a 260GTX to replace my 8800GT.

    Yeah, I don't want to be a blob of...whatever they are made of.

    I'm with Chad, I seriously doubt that Ultra Mode would get canned unless something really extreme happened. Of course, in the case of meteor impact, I hope noone gets hurt.

    Though I wouldn't mind being nearby and getting superpowers as a side-effect....
  17. Can I have your stuff before the door hits you?

    Sorry, I've seen that so much after someone posting they are leaving that I think it's required posting procedure.

    I can't wait for GR
  18. Even though your problem is solved, welcome to CoH!
  19. I got an email with a code when I purchased the super science booster pack, even thought I could apply it immediately to my account (yes, I have the email as proof).

    Maybe the email got held in a spam filter somewhere.
  20. Welcome to Pinnacle!

    Likewise, if you need a hand, give me a tell @xandor.

    Don't worry, the ones that were bad there were probably drunk -- we are known as the drunk server, right?
