posts it.

nope... oh, ummm yeah kinda.
I hadn't attributed it to that, but it might be.

I had the occasional slow down in FPS in NFSU if I happened to hit a
small pole(like a bus stop sign), and that has since stopped, so, um,
yeah, I guess it may have fixed that.
I have also changed the cooling in my machine, so it may be that my
video card(mildly overclocked) is now better cooled too.

I guess I'll wait till I come across a software that demands that I
install Microsoft's latest bloated piece of crap.

The last directx I dloaded was really annoying - the choice was to use
the auto-intaller of 15meg approx or to dload a 30meg version for
programmers ( or whatever). When you need it for more than one machine
or you mess up and have to re-install windows - the auto-install
version needs to be dloaded again - I gave up and dloaded the latter
in the end. 60 odd meg I dloaed just to get a programme working which
I'm not sure whether or not I'm still using.
Waste of ****ing time.

I didnt think it was news worthy.

I mean if we all started posting about any minor update of software,
then this place would get pretty crowded...

"oh yeah, version 1.27.80.aac of xGame came out.
The updated the help menu, now it has the chicks married name."

Rock on the update posts.
