  1. My favorite spyware remover would be a very strong magnet. Seriously, I still use Spybot Search and Destroy. I want to try microsoft anti spyware soon, but I'm too lazy
  2. I have a friend who is looking to put SuSE linux on his dell laptop. I have heard from some people that said that it is not good to put linux on a laptop. Is this true? I do not why it would be bad, but I'd rather be sure for my friend.
  3. Well, I can only think of one more thing to try. Reformating your hard drive. It cures all ails, and conditions lol. I can only think that the windows sounds have been deleted in some way. Try placing your own sound in place of the windows default sounds. If it still does not work, try reinstalling windows.
  4. He was aksing if the sound was onboard the motherboard, or if you have an internal sound card, like a sound blaster audigy, or something like that. What OS do you have? this could be a contributing factor. Try going into the sound ettings, and make sure you have a sound scheme selected.
  5. Right now, I'm right between Dreamweaver and Frontpage. My school has dreamweaver, and I'm trying to figure it out. On the other hand, I have frontpage at home, and I know how to use it fluently enough to get by.
  6. I was on the internet on a friend's house yesterday, and he introduced me to Red vs. Blue. I was hooked almost instantly. I want to do it for hl2, but I can't seem to find any ways to do it. Can someone throw me a bone here, and give me some clues?
  7. I googled my name, and I share it with a Irish fiddler, and an author. God, I love the internet.
  8. I don't think the world would be able to live without computers. Our soceity has grown too dependant on computers. My parents took my computer away for a month. For the first week and half, I was pulling my hair out, trying to figure out something to do. I eventually got used to it, and I've cut back on my computer usage drastically. If you consider the fact that almost everything has some sort of computer in it these days, we would easily fall into some kind of depression. Car keys, toasters, alarm clocks, nuclear power plants, even my pen has a computer chip inside it. If all of the computers seased to exisit at one moment, it would be chaos.
  9. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by that. I'm still just a XP user in a linux world. If you can tell me how to do that, it would be appreciated.
  10. Do you know what the drive rails look like? I know that 75% of all of the computers in our school are nobilis's, and none of them have drive rails, they have some kind of locking thing. You might want to try standard drive rails.
  11. There will never be a winner in this topic. Intel and AMD are good at certain things. From my recent studies, Intel is more of a multimedia processor. ie: video editing, audio compiling etc... AMD is more of a gaming processor. I'm still debating on what kind of processor I should get for my next computer, but I'll figure it out when I decide what I want to do with it.
  12. I think source is going to be a lot better within the next few months (at least I hope) They have been releasing a lot of big patches lately, and introducing more useless features. I love source, when I can play it. Steam is probally the best idea in a while, but was implamented in the worst way. Valve really needs to get their act together with all of these bugs in their applications. As I said in a earlier topic: Enough of my ranting. I still like 1.6 over source for now. Within the next couple of months, I will probally be playing source more than 1.6
  13. I'm trying to set up a small home network between two computers. I have SUsE linux on one computer, and XP pro on the other. I believe I have the hardware end sorted out, but I am having much trouble with the set-up of the network devices. on the linux machine, it is asking for an IP address for the computer. I don't know what I should put, can someone clue me in? On the XP machine, it is trying to renew my IP address, but it will not renew it. It than says that it has "Little or No Connectivity". I can't hook the computers up to a brodband internet to get the IP's, because I only have dial-up. I really need help with this, cuz I need this network for a LAN party in a couple weeks.
  14. I do not get an error message when I open the .exe file. It shows the loading splash screen, but when it is finished loading, the splash screen closes and nothing happens. Nothing regarding adobe is in the process list when I check it. I also closed all diagnostic applications before I installed premier.
  15. Right now, I'm using AdAware SE with MS Anti-spyware. I prefer to use a combination, because some programs pick up stuff that the other doesn't. Before MS anti spywae, I used AAW SE and spy sweeper.
  16. It is a gread idea, but it is just not very practical. it would take 20 of these towers to equal one wind plant.
  17. Yesterday, I downloaded the trial version of Premier Pro 1.5. I installed it on my master hard drive, but it will not load. I get the splash screen that says that it is loading the files, but it will not startup. I tried everything on the Adobe website, but to no avail. I really need this program, because I have to turn a movie into my T.V. Production teacher be the end of the month. Can somebody please help me?
  18. I'm just about positive that my computer is clean. I do the same as you, except I run an adware detector also. I'm just about ready to reformat my hard drive. I can't live without my firefox. I need tabs, extensions and themes.
  19. The only problem is, is that it was working fine with sp2 for over 6 months. If taking sp2 out will work, how do I do it? I'm not aware of any way you can remove a service pack.
  20. I had the sudden urge to connect to the internet on my linux machine. Unfortunately, the modems I have, linux would not detect. Is there any modems out there that my linux machine will detect? Your help would be greatly appreciated.
  21. I'm still waiting for the download to finish I'v played at a friend's house a couple of months ago, and I thought it was kind of boring. It was just a little too easy for my taste.
  22. That's why you use a electric blower instead of the canned air. It's more economic to pay $40 for a blower, thah $5 a pop for a can of air every time you need air.
  23. My favorite game right now is Half-Life 2, although I'm starting to think about getting doom 3. I'm starting to get pissed off with steam, and it never working like it's supposed to. I feel like a beta tester, not a gamer, because of all of the bugs. I will still vote for HL2 anyway.
  24. Right now, I'm using the Novell Linux Desktop 9, which I believe is SuSE 9.1. I'm hoping to get a faster internet connection, so I can download different distros. Is there any other easy-to-use distros out there that I can download?
  25. redsox, that is a pretty sweet looking case. I wish I would have saw that case before I bought mine It's nice and big, and great for airflow. If it has a blowhole, that's even better. The only thing I'll suggest is, is that you get a tornado 80mm fan for the side window. Good pick.
