Which is even worse because you are overclocking a part that already gets limited air flow. It's good that you aren't overclocking it anymore though. Other then getting a new laptop I don't think there is too much you can do to improve performance. Even on XP H2V is still a pretty demanding game, and I'll be surprised if the issues you are having are easily fixable. You have a relatively slow CPU, a low amount (for the game) of ram and a relatively poor performing GPU. The only thing I can suggest is to turn absolutely every setting down or off and try and play it like that. If H2V has some kind of safe mode setting try running it in that.
Microsoft really isn't into open source. This is obvious. They release a few cut down apps here and there but until I see Windows/Office Free Edition (even if it is based off an older codebase like 9x) and it's source code released I won't consider them a part of the open source movement.
Re: WowLoader Source Code Discussion
Yeah you're right...I got it to work in XP...but its not a lot better. It's definitely better, but not super. I've applied at three places so hopefully I can get a job, and a new computer.

How did you come to that conclusion?
There's still a few things which could be added.
And even if MS begins searching for it proactively, there would still be legitimate ways around that.

That's not all it's doing, it also provides several API's which are only available on Visata.

Well, duh. If your car runs out of gas, there's only one solution to that as well.

*Sigh* Did you even read my first post?
Or maybe the concept of source code escapes you?

Why would H2 Sapien be different from everything else?

I can't recall a company to financially support something they don't... support... morally?
As for the loader, it doesn't get past the initial Halo 2 logo load screen for me, upon launch.
Re: WowLoader Source Code Discussion
When I click on loader.exe it doesn't work.
Edit. Damn! "Process exited with this return code 00000000"
Edit. Fixed that, now It loads half-way and then it exits out oh and loader.exe still doesn't work
