ATI releases new drivers every couple of months, so I'm not sure if it is still a problem. I opted to go with a couple of Dell P2210's (native DisplayPorts) to go with my 22" AOC. The AOC and one Dell are hooked up through DVI and the other Dell uses the DisplayPort.

Do some reading at www.widescreengamingforum.com (WSGF).

Well... after typing the first part of this post, a quick visit to WSGF has informed me that ATI just released a $30 DVI-to-DisplayPort adapter. Problem solved.

Whats a good microphone?
I have a set of Bose Computer speakers. Can the sound play thru the speakers and still talk thru the mic?

I think so. I just went to a headset a few weeks ago and you can hear much more. Plus the volume of the chatters and the car can be balanced. you can turn the chatter up and turn the master volume up or down.

Dave Tell Jason to bring it on.

All I know is if he comes near me I will put him in the wall.

Thats fine. I run my iracing on a laptop at my house. Here is the FAQ page. It gives a list on this page. You can turn the graphics way down. But with all the fancy equipment you can really turn it up. When you upload Iracing it will naturally turn your settings on to what your computer can handle.

okay i just did a session with Roger.
This is too much fun, we need to get a few more people from here on.
Roger is real good at this. He was 5 seconds faster than I was.

Bob, Last night was fun. Alittle bit of practice and you will be right up there. Wait til you run with the big dogs. Those guys are FAST.

I will look for you tonight.

I just watched Rodger's 4:15pm Mustang race. Awesome race!

For those that don't know, iRacing also lets you live spectate other sessions that are running including practice and races.

Recap:
Rodger started 15th on the grid and over 30 laps had worked through the field up to 5th and was making pass attempts for 4th place for three consecutive laps. Yeah, I was cheering him on at home. The pinnacle of the race was a lap 29 pass attempt at turn one. Good run off the last turn, outbraked the 4th place car, but ended up putting two wheels off and spinning, taking both cars out of the race. Great run, tons of fun just watching.

Rodger, I saw you ran a hosted session the other night. Apparently I'm not very good at guessing passwords. Was it posted in this thread?

ironworks · #50 09-06-2010, 05:32 PM

I wish the race was as glorious as you make it sound. Actually i only got one wheel off.

The password was latg. How about tonight at 730. Bob needs to by the mustang and we can race at limerock. Next time you can't figure the password txt me.
