    I just woke up so I'm not running tests yet, I haven't had my first RedBull. But yea instead of installing UT2004, I installed the demo which runs off the HD, and it did the same thing.

    And yea I have Quake 4, and Doom 3. I'm pretty good at both, and the original Quake, I can beat the last level in under a minute. Without having to cheat.

    The original Quake does have Deathmatch if you play over a LAN, but the main game is.... Hard to explain, it's sort of like Doom, you play through levels and you have to get these pieces of something to unlock the last level, there are 4 main levels and each of those has like a bunch of sub levels you play through.

    Once you've beaten all those the last one opens up. The boss at the last level can't be killed with weapons, you have to telefrag it.

    Doom3 is awesome, it's like a horror movie with actual sequences of mvoie like stuff in the game, and I loved it. The graphics are beyond what any computer at the time could hold. Quake 4 looks similar to it.

    Hey, gore ,

    Can you check the Linux version of the demo as well. If that misbehaves then that is 99.99% proof that it is a hardware issue?

    If it doesn't, then I would still keep driver problems and applications/services conflicts (Windows based) in the frame for maybe 20-25% ?

    Incidentally pal, I am glad that you raised this thread in the operating systems forum, after all, my hardware never goes wrong?
