Two of the new recruits that I went through the orientation today had set up their Text to speech options correctly but still only heard "user has joined your channel" etc. They have the same version as me and I don't have that problem. Any ideas what it could be?

Constant "Disconnected from EA Online" / "Disconnected from Server" errors in BF3
by Guest SudzMcDuff- 3 replies
- 6.6k views
After the patch I started running into these errors. Could not join any servers at all. After scouring the web and running into multiple other users with this problem, I thought I would have to wait until the next patch to play again :( I just wanted to post this up here in case any of our members run into the same issue. I tried all the fixes suggested; restarting origin, restarting computer, updating punkbuster, reinstalling the game, etc. but nothing worked. After much frustration, I finally found a post from someone that claimed updating their Anti-Virus resolved the issue for them. Since I had no better ideas, I went ahead with the update. Now to be clear, I u…

I just unlocked Batman Arkham but for some reason I am having a problem that I cant hang on the ledge in the game. Which will not let me pass the first part. I don't know what I am doing wrong.

BF3 Random Crashes
by Guest RET.CW4.ThievingSix=US=- 22 replies
- 6.2k views
So i'm playing in BF3 and everything will be going fine and then randomly, it will freeze. The entire display as far as i can tell freezes and if it does recover it says "Nvidia Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered". Now this happens pretty often i'd say about once a day but its very sporadic and i can never try and replicate the issue. I've got my fans turned up and the temperature never exceeds 53*. I run everything on Ultra and get around 60FPS. There isn't any stuttering prior to it or anything it just happens randomly. I've uninstalled and re-installed the drivers completely using driver sweeper and i'm still getting the error. System Specs(a…

8-Bit ALU Build Help
by Guest RET.CW4.ThievingSix=US=- 1 reply
- 1k views
So one of my assignments is to design and build an 8-Bit ALU using discrete components( i have a year to build it so times not too much of an issue). I'm at a point where i've got the schematics drawn up for all my 8-Bits but i was just wondering if anyone knew anything about digital logic and could help me. I've chosen just to use AND, OR and NOT gates and im aware of NAND but i chose not to do them because the transistor count would have been higher(i think). So here's my logic diagram(adding for 1-bit) http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o243/ThievingSix/ALU%20Build/FullAdder.png And here's my circuit diagram(adding for 1-bit) http://i122.photobucket.com/alb…

Avira anti-virus sucks/can't install BF3.
by Guest RET.SSgt.Haterade=US=- 5 replies
- 2k views
After the patch, Avira sees BF3 as a trojan. A pop up comes up and I thought I told it to ignore. Well, it decides to delete the BF3.exe file anyway. So I uninstalled Avira figuring I could just install BF3 again. When in Origin, I click on the Install button for BF3. It says installing and then times out (I assume... it waits about 30-45 seconds before reverting back to "Ready to Install"). I thought maybe a fresh install of Origin would fix it, but it didn't. Then I reinstalled Avira thinking that maybe that would fix it. It didn't. So now I have a fresh install of Avira and Origin both, but BF3 won't install. Nor can I find anything which would force a …

2500k vs 2600k
by Guest Doubleome- 5 replies
- 1.8k views
Hey again, Its tough building a machine, ofc 2600k is better but its quite a big price differnce. Ill be doing mostly gaming, thinking of frapsing some BF3 game footage. So basicly its either 2600k or the 2500k and using the money saved to improve slightly on Ram, mobo maybe even SSD. Ill be overclocking the CPU somewhere in the future so it all comes down to Hyper Threading. My current E8500 doesnt have it, and wouldnt have a clue if HT actually does anything to be worth spending about 40% more.

To buy or not to buy?
by Guest RET.CDR.CrAzY_NuTtA=US=- 12 replies

Hey guys, as you know my headset is dying. Or if you didn't know, that's the reason I sound really quiet or muffled on TS. Only over the last few months has this been happening. I've been looking for a new headset for some time, figured this time I would get a decent 5.1 surround one rather than a cheap one. BF3 comps gonna be hardcore ;). So, obviously if I was a rich man I would get some astro a40s - pretty much the best 7.1 headsets you can get. Only £200 with the mixamp.... guhhhh. Been looking at other stuff, turtle beach, creative, tritton etc. This is the cheapest i've found a decent headset from a decent company that is true surround. http://www.kikatek.com/…

G5 mouse stop responding?
by Guest RET.SSgt.Haterade=US=- 3 replies
- 1.2k views
Since about the time I started playing BF3, I'm getting weird problems with my G5. On what seems like a random basis, my mouse will stop responding and its lights will go off. Basically, it's acting like it unplugged. After a few seconds I will hear the Windows beep signifying that a piece of hardware has been plugged in and it will begin working like normal. I haven't had any issues with this port or mouse before. I've switched ports and I still get the same problem. It sounded like a software/driver issue to me, so I reinstalled Logitech's updated drivers. I'm still having issues and it seems to be spreading. Originally it was just during the game that this ha…

BF3 Sound cutout
by Guest Snuff- 5 replies
- 2.2k views
Recently I have been having sound issues in BF3. Most of the time I notice it when I am scoped with a sniper rifle or driving a tank. Some sounds of the game will cut out. For example with a sniper rifle, I will be scoped, shooting and such, get shot at and get fuzzy vision, recover and my sound is all glitchy. I will lose sounds of others shooting, I won't hear grenades or explosions. Sometimes I can't even hear the gun I'm shooting fire, but I'll hear the reload noise when I reload. It's strange that I am just noticing this withing the last few days. I haven't changed any hardware or drivers. Anyone else getting sound issues like this?

My keyboard is having some issues. My shift keys aren't working properly, my left shift key doesn't work with "t" and "y", and neither works with 1,2,3,4,7,8,9,0,-,and =. This started like last night. I also don't know if this is related but I can't use backspace while holding down shift anymore, can't remember if I could do that before. Edit: It had to do with my macro keys, problem fixed.

Crossfire Decreased FPS.
by Guest RET.CW2.POLLVX=US=- 6 replies
- 1.3k views
I just received my new 6950 and installed it with Crossfire. CCC and GPU-Z both inform me that Crossfire is enable. My first card is in an x16 slot and the second is in an x8 slot. I'm running one bridge (as that's all I have). Now the problem: my games are running with lower frame rates. BFBC2 in 5906x1080 runs at 45fps (no change) and Unigine Heaven runs at 8fps (ran at 13.5fps with a single card). I've installed the latest CAP from AMD and I have 11.9 installed for the driver. Any ideas? Computer Motherboard: EVGA 131-GT-E767-TR Processor: Core i7-950 3.07Ghz (not OC'ed) RAM: 8192MB Graphics Cards: 2xMSI R6950 Twin Frozr II 2GB Power Supply: Corsair TX850
