I believe consumer electronic goods below the value of Rs.2000 are not dutiable. And also, I read somewhere that any type of data storage media is not dutiable. Since CDs/DVDs are basically data storage media, I guess it shouldn't be dutiable?

I got it from Play-asia.com. Its being shipped in the format of an envelope having a bubble wrapped slipcase which contains the discs and manuals. The shipping and delivery to India was free, i.e. I didn't have to pay any shipping and handling charges. I've had a similar package sent to me by a...

The reason this kind of modification of code is invalid is because of concerns from the AV-vendors about whether the modifications are doctored to suit a particular vendor's heuristics engine in order to get that AV the best result. Due to this, it is looked down upon by the industry and hence...

Meeting the MD will not help. The MD is no different from the rest of them. Most of corporate India is basically lies, cheats, deceit and laziness anyway. The only way is to get some media attention along with photos of these b******s. The workers of these companies care only about cutting...

Asus' Taiwan support itself has not been known to be particularly good to its customers. Considering that everything that goes on in India is at 35% efficiency at best, 35% of "passable" support is = ludicrous, mediocre support.

Hello everyone :) I recently ordered a PC game from an online shop and was told that it had shipped. Now it will take some time for delivery, but I am concerned whether I'll have to pay any customs or import duty? Its a single game costing about Rs.1500.

Modifying the code of the malware essentially creates new malware. This is looked down upon by the AV industry and serves very little purpose in the real-world except when you are trying to study the heuristic engines or variant detections of the various AVs. Regarding AV-comparatives, you...

Not so much of a resource hog on my computer.....Well, after initial installation, BD grinds your hard disk like hell for enumerating file information to be used in the next rootkit scan (you cannot disable this hard disk grinding). It takes approximately an hour to finish on my computer, and...

File packer support is becoming more and more important in today's age. The AVs which have been known to have good support for packed executable files are as follows: 1) Kaspersky (The best) 2) BitDefender (Next best) 3) AntiVir (Pretty good) 4) Dr.Web/NOD32 (Slight edge to Dr.Web) 5)...

There is infact a distributor in India but their prices are more than what you would pay internationally. I would recommend you to purchase from NOD32-AV | Home Page

Hello guys :) Thanks for helping out. I live in the Anushakti Nagar area (Pincode: 400094) but I can go to Heera Panna. But I would appreciate some specific addresses along with phone numbers (if possible) so that I can reach the place quicker. @nvidiabeast: PM sent. :)

Hey everyone :) Its been a really long time since I was last on TE. I've been busy with studies and games in the meantime (the good ol' 6800GT handles stuff decently enough). I need to buy a few games which I do not seem to be getting at any outlet in Mumbai. The game I am looking to buy is ...

I agree, TWIMTBP and ATI's Get In The Game program makes things much easier for developers. However, the developer still has to spend more time writing shaders in DirectX than OpenGL. While this is correct, what I meant to say by "better OpenGL performance on newer graphics cards" is that the...

I have tried this. After enabling CMSS, all the four speakers work except the center speaker. Even in the Creative speaker tests, I cannot hear anything from the center speaker.

While I am not so good at such kind of technical stuff, the below info is what I make of all the developer talk regarding DX9 and OGL. Don't expect it to be 100% accurate though. Unfortunately, DirectX is "compiler hell". DirectX prevents the use of 100% of the graphics cards capabilities, even...

Tried two creative cards, I don't think both of them were defective.

My speaker set is an older Artis model....the one named S5100 (5.1 speaker set). The thread you pointed out has a different problem then mine, as my center speaker does not work correctly even with the Creative speaker tests...

All the configurations were correct. I did notice that if I stick my ear very close to the center speaker, there is a sound with the Live 24-bit but its just not loud enough to be heard at all. The subwoofer worked just fine. I must rule out physical damage to speakers because again the SoundMAX...

The only reason for not getting a creative is that my speakers have had problems with the SBLive! 5.1 DE and SBLive! 24-bit soundcards (center speaker just wouldn't work in any case including the Creative speaker test). This problem does not happen with my onboard SoundMAX or any other...

Hey everyone, I want to purchase a sound card. Price range should be within 2.5k and the brand should not be Creative. Can anyone help me? If possible, list the phone numbers of the vendors selling it as well. Thanks, Darth
