    Warhammer Online Thread!

    I think I'm sold on this game. I typically don't enjoy MMOs, but I think this one might be an exception.

    Qpack has another upgrade in the PSU...

    I just got mine last Friday. I'll have a look when I get home tonight. The PSU issue has got me a little worried. :eek:

    Flight Simulator X

    Well, I caved in. Just went to the Laminar Research site and got the 60 gig copy of X-Plane 8. Okay. Now I'm ready for FSX. Just a thought... I know street level data is possible, but I don't know if the average desktop PC could run it. I mean all the elements of a flight sim like physics...

    Flight Simulator X

    I can't recall any flight sim that has had decent ground textures. On that note, I am still flying in X-Plane v5! The newest version (X-Plane 8) takes up 60 gig with the full install. I've seen the screens and they look good. Now all I have to do is part with the 60 + dollars to get it...

    Biostar 6100 Ethernet problems

    I just got my Tforce 6100 - 939 Friday. The onboard NI was crap right out of the box. No suprises there. I just threw in an extra NIC I had and it was kickin' ass in no time. I'm pretty happy with this board. Sure the NI is garbage, but for 69.00 at Newegg, you can't beat it.

    Install path in Windows.

    Ya' know what? The more I think about it, the more I am convinced that this is a leftover from the old days of Win 3.1 and 95 (long filenames, etc...). It may have been valid then, but I think you are right, it has no basis in reality today. I'm just showing my age I guess. :rolleyes:

    Install path in Windows.

    I've got a quick question. As long as I have been working in IT, I have always understood that it is a good idea to install apps to the Program Files directory instead of just dumping them on the root of C. Now that I think about it, I don't remember what caused me to think that the more...

    Anybody here use CapDVHS? Got a few questions.

    Okay. I've got my PC hooked up to my Comcast DVR (Motorola) and I'm about to start recording all my saved shows (okay... First season of BSG 2003). I did a trial run and I must say that I am happy with the results. Well, except for file size. I just captured 5 minutes of video and it took up...

    What kinds of file formats can most DVD players use?

    Yup. I purchased a copy of Nero Ultra 6 and added some files. MAN! It really blows those suckers up! I could only put 4 files (originally only 360 MB in size) on a DVD. Wow. Anyhow, I edited the menu to look nice, then got ready to burn. It told me that I had more PAL than NTSC (figgures, I...

    What kinds of file formats can most DVD players use?

    So I've got a bunch of AVI files I want to burn to DVD and play them on my entertainment center. It's a fairly generic Regent brand system and I chucked the manual a long time ago. I was wondering if I am going to have to convert my AVI files in order to play them opn my DVD player. Thanks in...

    It's time for a [H]ard Guild Wars Guild!

    Ya'. I want to bump my level up another notch before I do the training sequence. I'd like to grab a few more fighter skills as well. I figgure there will be plenty of ass-whoop after the searing. :D

    It's time for a [H]ard Guild Wars Guild!

    Count me in. Pan Olusk Monk/Fighter (level 6 currently). I seem to be running out of quests in PvE so I guess I'm going to have to report for duty fairly soon.

    WoW = dangerous

    I've been thinking about playing WOW as well. Based on what I have read here, I think I am going to wait 'til DDO comes out. Picking my poison so to speak. :D

    Can't see HDD when booting from USB flash drive.

    Ah... Okay, it all makes sense now. I was testing the flash drive at work. I have a Dell D600 laptop. Dell sucks. Dell's bios sucks too. Works like a charm in the home PC (which is almost two years old and STILL blows the doors off the Dell). Thank GOD we just switched to a new hardware vendor. :D

    Can't see HDD when booting from USB flash drive.

    I have an interesting and irritating problem. I just got a USB pen drive which I planned to use as a boot device (replace floppy). I set it up and I can boot into DOS with CD drivers, but when I FDISK, I can't see my HDD. This is a problem when trying to load an OS... :( The bios is set to...
