Bright/Washed Out display after exiting games...

Anyone else ever have this? It used to do it with my GeForce4 4600, and also did it sometimes with my Radeon X800...and now it is doing it with my 6800GT. Whenever I exit a game back to the desktop, the display is all washed out and bright...with the Radeon I could go into the control panel and click on Default for the colors and it would reset it. But the Nvidia control panel isnt doing it...I have to restart the computer to get it to normal again.
Any ideas?

Doom 3 possible giant secret thread of Doom

Reposted again

At several points in the game Alpha Labs and Delta Labs notably, you run across computers that are down, and if you use them, you can 'back up' their data, and they'll shut down.

Now I'm wondering if there is some secret if you manage to back up all of these. Anyone have any ideas about this? I made up a list of all the ones I noticed (I've gone through the game twice now), but I still haven't figured out where or what this might effect.

My guess would be there's a point somewhere in the game Computer Core? where you can recover something if you managed to hit every one in the game.

If you've got any ideas, post em!

I hope id gets rid of the cd check for doom 3 in a future patch (I have a laptop).

I don't get why publishers bother with that crap. There's already a cd-key for the game, so you'd think that would be enough. Not like the people who don't legitimately have the game wouldn't be able to get a crack or whatever.

You know, I honestly think HL2's single player is going to blow everything else out of the water. From everything I have read and all the videos I've watched it's shaping up to be one of the most amazing single player experiences ever. I hope that the mod community picks up like HL1 did, that would be awesome.

PC SURROUND SOUND PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:

With Doom 3's recent release, lately I've been seeing a lot of questions along the lines of "Why doesn't the digital output on my soundcard give me Dolby Digital?" (2 or 3 of these threads a day, in fact) as people are starting to pay more attention to what they're listening to. Why indeed?

The reason is simple. Unless your motherboard is on the list below with a "Yes" in the "Sounstorm Certified" column, YOU WILL NOT BE GETTING DOLBY DIGITAL SURROUND SOUND IN DOOM 3 OR ANY OTHER GAME, NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY, even using your sound card/motherboard's digital output.

http://www.nvidia.com/object/motherboards.html

Those Soundstorm-enabled boards are the ONLY PC audio solutions that can do realtime Dolby Digital encoding. The reason your sound card/motherboard has those digital output is so that they can pass off pre-encoded material (from a DVD movie, for example) to an external decoder. Anything else will just come out as 2-channel stereo.

This does NOT mean you can't get surround sound working in games, just that you can't do it with the digital output. You can still get regular surround out of the analog jacks on your sound card/motherboard (as long as it supports surround in the first place, which just about everything since the SB Live! does). You may have to do something odd like hook up your rear and center/sub channels up to the line in and mic jacks and do some configuring in the audio control panels, but it should work just fine that way.

I hope this clears a few things up.

TL;DR: you can't do Dolby Digital unless you buy a new motherboard with Soundstorm audio, which is counterproductive for any Intel/A64 users. Hook up your speakers through the analog jacks to get 5.1 sound.

Car Question:

So it seems my rear braks are fucked up in some way, shape or form, there's a loud metal-dragging-against-some-other-metal on occasion when I drive, and espcially when braking. I had this before and I got rotors and/or calipers etc. replaced (got used ones with no warranty to lower cost, yay)... anyone know what the liklyhood of fixing this without replacing rotors brakes again is? I heard maybe the brakes are just not greased up properly or some shit, which makes them stick and make the noise, which could be plausible since the problem is on and off... any other ideas?

Doom3 question

I have this audio file from alpha lab 1 or 2 where the guy says what his storage locker code is. However, i searched long and hard and found no locker. What gives, are these sometimes for later in the game?

Also, i was in some vent pipes and i heard a radio transmission from some guy asking for help saying he locked himself in a cabinet. I never found the cabinet, and im almost out of the level. Is it a secret area or what? (this was the level with the scientist who leads you around with the light)

FPS shackers, I'd like to throw my two cents in on what I think is the best fps controlling method.

Though I do concede that in the end, every gamer should chose the controlling setup they "feel" better with, but I think some controlling methods have advantages over others.

The two most common controlling methods I've seen for first person shooters are the "WASD" and "ESDF". I think the "ESDF" far out performs the "WASD" because you get an entire extra row of keys in which you can bind stuff to and the shift/capslock/ctrl/alt are still close enough to your hand that you can use them for whatever your heart desires.

One thing I don't understand at all is how people can use the "home/end/delete/insert/pagedown/pageup" or the arrow keys for playing fps games. You constantly have to lit up your hands to get to your weapon binds! Madness!

Sound guys take notice! :)

A friend of mine is a Mr Know-It-All type and every once in a while I notice him stating something that I know is wrong and I stick it to him.....

He was babbling about these (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/IS/EN,CRID=698,CONTENTID=7170) speakers the other day and was talking about that this combo from Logitech could not have a THX certification because of the 2.1 thing going on there.

To my knowledge he doenst know shit about sound/video/computers so I was thinking about that maybe he was just saying some shit like usual.
