    No Mortal Kombat for Australia? Refused classification!

    It means exactly that, as long as we are on australian soil we aren't legally allowed to obtain the game in any way. If your lucky enough to be caught with anything thats refused classification the maximum penalty is a fine of $275,000 and/or 10 years jail. That hasn't stopped people in the...

    GTA IV Performance

    i will believe you:). my 4850's(CF) struggle to play it on medium(20-30), but they play it with everything maxxed out at 40-60FPS:wtf: my screen is 1680x1050 if that helps

    Note- 4850 CROSSFIRE AND CERTAIN SETUPS DO NOT WORK WITH 8.10 (HOTFIXED)/8.11

    Flashing above the overdrive limits does work. it just says on the overdrive part of catalyst that "overdrive something has not been initiated" or something like that. I did it on my HD2600, so unless they have changed something then it should work.

    8.7 was the first one that started giving me problems, 8.6 worked fine though:)

    MSI's First EFI BIOS, More Now Available

    apperently it is designed so that it is easy to make your own BIOS(i cant remember where i read it). that would be sweet having a fully customized BIOS that is exactly how you want it:rockout: Edit: i was just looking at the other thread that has been closed and saw a few questions so i...

    MSI's First EFI BIOS, More Now Available

    hmmmmm..........1:1.25 isn't in it. i thought it was:ohwell: Yes, it's fairly slow to boot. if i disable anything including the floppy disk controller it freezes(it looks better so it's worth the wait). v1.0b is a newer version that i got from MSI Support because i was having problems...

    MSI's First EFI BIOS, More Now Available

    it takes a litle while to get it to go. there are a few options that you dont want to change(like disabling a piece of onboard hardware) or it does make it freeze. i thought 1:1.25 was there:confused:. i am going to reflash it now so i can overclock higher(it sounds wierd but it's true). i will...

    MSI's First EFI BIOS, More Now Available

    The EFI BIOS still has a long way to go. I also noticed the voltages being to far apart. you should have given it a shot overclocking with it. I can get alot more out of the EFI than i can with the normal BIOS. hmmmm...... this thread makes me want to reflash it:D EDIT: Which memory...

    MSI's First EFI BIOS, More Now Available

    yes it could quite easily include all that stuff. at the moment the BIOS file size is only 4mb. they have alot to add:D currently when in the BIOS you can use a live update program to update the BIOS so they could probably integrate it into that to update the drivers.

    MSI's First EFI BIOS, More Now Available

    at the moment it's ok. it currently has a drive backup program in it:cool:. You can access the internet from it:eek:. they are planning to add a internet browser to it. the BIOS chip is 30mb(all the extra programs are on a disk that you need to put in to use them)

    MSI launches its first EFI-based BIOS.
