OpenGL error in Call of duty game

2008 ~ All About Music And Technology Your video card drivers doesn’t have OpenGL drivers installed.


To fix this go to your graphics card manufacturer’s website and download drivers (or install them off the install disk that comes with the hardware). This commonly occurs when windows XP standard drivers are used.

General Sources:
# ATI Drivers
# NVIDIA Drivers


# There are also sites that compile lots of drivers. Here are a few to help you find the driver you need: www.driverguide.com
# drivers.softpedia.com
# www.opendrivers.com
# www.geeks.com/drivers.asp


This error can also occur if you have a wrong video mode for your system (monitor). I.e. a resolution of 1280x1024 won't work with a 1280x800 TFT.


If you have an openGL error, you will normally see this text:

Will Call of Duty 4 run well on low configuration

2008 ~ All About Music And Technology You need to adjust a LOT of settings to get the most out of your PC. Things such as program priorities (in task manager), graphics card priorities/settings, and general Windows settings come into play.

If you have too much detail etc, it will run slow. Turn it down a little (turn certain things down) and it will run great, with hardly any visual difference in detail.

The best way to find out what your computer can handle is play around with every single setting you can find.

Counter-Strike: Source Hint - Italian Closet Dweller
In the map cs_italy got to the apartments and there should be a (breakable) cabinet to hide in. To do this, go up the stack of logs by Counter-Terrorist spawn.

KASPERSKY AVG NOD32 AVAST

2008 ~ All About Music And Technology A reasonable solution to the age old question of which is the better antivirus???

There are quite a few antivirus softwares available but only some of them seem effective. I've tried a large number of antivirus software, Norton, Mcafee, Kaspersky, Bit defender, Avg, Nod32, Avast to name a few. I've classified the antiviruses into the following categories based on my experience.

The sloths : Norton & Mcafee slow down the computer tremendously, I haven't found them effective either. Frequent interruption for seemingly basic operations is another pain.

The nimble : Kaspersky & Bit defender are very good as they come up with updates regularly hence they are very effective. The interface is simple and neat which adds to the convinience. They don't slow down the computer.

The ugly : Nod32 seves the basic purpose of warding of viruses but it has a very boring and dull interface. If you don't mind the soporofic looks, it makes a very good antivirus.

The average : Avast and Avg both would suit a home desktop not connected to any external networks as they generally are the last to come up with updates to counter attack new viruses. Avg comes up with a free version, which is not all that bad if you cant shell out the money.

Verdict

Effectiveness : Kaspersky > Nod32 > Bit Defender

Appearance : Kaspersky > Bit Defender > Nod32

MS IN CIVIL ENGINEERING

2008 ~ All About Music And Technology Well, if you are a civil engineer from India, interested in studying further this post will be very helpful.

1) Should I go for an M.Tech or an MS??
A) The answer to this question lies in what specialization you choose and whether you are interested in going abroad or not. IISC bangalore is known to have a better Structures Department than some of the top 20 colleges in US. If you are interested in transportation, the branch is almost dead in India as not much of what is required at UG or PG level. In case of Geotech, Environmental and Water resources the kind of exposure you get abroad is tremendous.

2) What is the GRE score required??
A) Any score above 1250 is considered acceptable, ab0ve 1350 decent and above 1400 well extraordinary in case of Civil Engineering.

3) What are the job oppurtunities after MS and Mtech??
A) There are loads of jobs for civil engineers right now, irrespective of specialization both in India and abroad, so one needn't worry about it. Anyways chances of getting a job are Structures > Transportation > Environmental > Geotech > Water resources.

4) What is the ranking of the colleges in US??
A) Please refer this link http://vshout.blogspot.com/2008/08/best-civil-engineering-schools-ranking.html

5)Can I come back to India later??
A) Well, you always can and the work experience abroad is only gonna add to your resume.

India or abroad, there is a lot of scope for civil engineering right now. Please do post your queries...
