My problem is that ever since reformatting my computer I can't take screenshots or take videos with either Xfire or Fraps. Before I had ever reformatted both those worked. I installed the graphics driver from the e-machines site and aside from these two things, I can do everything I was able to do before. My guess is it is the driver, but I can't find a different one. I also beleive this isn't the original driver my computer came with, even though it is on the e-machines site, because I now have a little "controller" on the start menu bar next to the time (forgot what you call that area) that I can change the resolution of my computer and everything, and that wasn't there before (Also, this thing's in Korean which is annoying. I wish I knew how to set it back to English. It is in Korean because I have my computer to be able to run thigns that can only run in Korean code pages, or w/e, but it only changed this one thing to Korean. Everything else is in English still).
Here's what my computer is: eMachines Support: Support Documents Nothing's changed. Also, not quite on topic, is there any way to boost onboard graphics?

Go to Intel's website, use this & it will detect your onboard graphics & give you the appropriate drivers for it. Make sure to uninstall the previous graphics drivers.
Another thing is that if Modern Warfare 2 (or any other full screen app.) is "Run As Admin" you will need to do the same with Fraps for it to work. A program called GameBooster is really good for squeezing more FPS out of your machine. |

Apparently my graphics driver is current. :/
This one hasn't worked for like 3 reformats now, and I can't find the original, shipped driver. Also, I don't run Vista/W7 (I use XP), and I am not on a regular account on this. Thanks, though. ![]() Should I get any of the ones listed here? http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Sear...%c2%ae+845G%22 EDIT: Hmmmm... I found a T6414 around my house, and it is bother better and worse. The HD is broken, and I think the AMD processor sucks. I read that the ATI Radeon Xpress 200 that's on it can handle Celeron processors. Would it be possible, and advantageous, to hybrid these two computers together? I'm thinking: ATI Radeon Xpress from T6414 Celeron Processor from T2893 Combine all 4 sticks of RAM from and get 1 GB of DDR RAM 80GB HD from T2893 and house it all in the T6414 case because it has more frontal USB ports. Possible? Would it work? If it would, how would I safely put this together.

That doesn't sound worth the effort. Maybe an AMD express 200 is quicker than an intel GMA xxxx (the latest onboard stuff from AMD certainly wtf-pwns any intel/nvidia offering, but we're not talking about brand new tech here) but there's a lot more to worry about regarding compatability, motherboards, CPU sockets, RAM speeds, possibly need to reformat your PC for the fourth time...
Can you do a screen shot with the "print screen" key? Are you sure you've actually turned videos/print screen on? I know on xfire you have to tick a box to "enable" the feature. Do any of the Fxx buttons work?
