[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	The other factor is HDCP support - if you intend to play blu-ray discs on your PC, you have to make sure that both your video card and monitor support HDCP over DVI, or the discs won't play if the disc requires it. -----signature----- The scripts/links below don't work anymore...I should really change my signature: Skill Calculator: http://www.strikefast.net/skillcalc/ Salvage Calculator: http://www.strikefast.net/tinkering/salvaging/ *** 09-11-01

	Don't think it matters, as long as you've got a set of speakers. But I can't imagine monitor audio being that good anyway. -----signature----- New Britain Director of Central Idiocy Agency and Minister of Caffeine Keeper of the Forbidden Dance http://www.tearingdownstrongholds.com/
