  1. I don't use it, but Hitman Pro (https://www.hitmanpro.com/en-us.aspx site is dutch, but program is also in english).It automaticly updates and runs these apps:Ad-Aware SE 1.06 Personal (Freeware),Spybot Search & Destroy 1.4Spy Sweeper 3 en 4 (trial)Spyware Doctor 3.2CWShredder 2.15 FreewareSpywareBlaster 3.4Spyware Block ListSysclean Package FreewareSuperDAT VirusScanand autmaticly removers found adware. I don't use it because you have absolutely no control.I myself use Ad-aware, Spybot, Spywareblaster. That's all I need, Opera is a lot safer and 99% of the adware that comes with other software is found by these tools.And I also have a hosts file and a good virusscanner installed.
  2. I've forgotten something. PhpMyAdmin is slooooooooooooow at superihost. It's just terrible . And superihost is also know as 100freewebspace, or something like that. That's where I subscribed and suddenly I had a superihost account .
  3. You get 100Mb webspace and 3Gb bandwith, 5 subdomains, 5Mb MySQL. It's a good host, speed is good, upload and download. The response time is bit low (but higher then Xisto ) because of the google ads. It started good, there was only a small banner on top, very small, but after a while they suddenly added the google ads. The server is also limited. I couldn't get the mail function working (nor php, nor sendmail). You can't use .httaccess files (gives a 500 error). It's a good host, you get less freedom than Xisto tough (and they don't have cpanel, wich rocks) You can take a look at my old (still hosted site) to test speed etc... http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
  4. 3,5" Erm, 120Gb and it's getting full and I have no money to buy a bigger one.2 Other computer have 3,2Gb hdd's and the back-up server has 4 hdd:420Mb850Mb2.0Gb3.2Gb
  5. You get 50Mb free webspace and virtualy unlimited bandwith (if you have too much large files you can get a warning). The FTP upload is very slow, 5kbs is way too slow. They also have very annoying ads wich actualy block your site (you can't click on a link or something untill it's gone). Even worse, the ads cause Opera to crash . For the rest it's okay, but you don't get much control, so it's realy something for beginners. Download speed is good tough, good for a file dump Example of the blocking: Link This is an example of the ads w/o the ads (hosts file/spywareblaster). There should be 2 txtfiels and a dropdown box. I have to wait 5-10sec. before it leaves . There are also pop-ups in ff and cookies.
  6. Do you know that you can get a free winxp from M$ if you give them the cd you got from the store (don't know the details exactly, but it's some program to get shop who deal in illegal "cheap" windows XP cd's.)
  7. ouch, KM400, from what I've heard, it's a bad chip to overclock (no AGP/PCI lock). Maybe you can find something usefull here ? http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
  8. Jep, aftermarket defraggers are mostly better, espacialy if they support boot defrags. I'm now trying Diskeeper and O&O Defrag, they are both good, but I do prefer O&O because it has better defrag options.One thing I did notice (after defragging 4-5 times) was that my hdd was still fragmented like hell, even the moveable files. I found out that the "large" incomplete files from shareazaa ( ) caused this, so I moved them to another partition and my hdd is now defraged (damned, I just checked and I thing I've screwed my incomplete files , dang, 3Gb downloaded for nothing )
  9. You should try http://park.ubcd4win.com/, it uses WindowsXP BartPE , it's like windows on a cd. It realy works well, but you'll need some time to create the CD (but it's explained very well on the site)
  10. I prefer the real coke, not the light stuff, bah, it tastes, brrrrrrr, bad .Pepsi is alright. We also have River Cola overhere, I've been drinking it for years now, I got used to it, but now that I stopped drinking it for a while (I drank it all day, from the moment I woke up till I went to bed), it tastes like sh**.And all those flavours you can choose from, I only like the strawberry because it tastes soo sweet, but all the other, I don't like them
  11. Well, I shure can't live without it, that's why I now have 3 computers in my room .I don't know how long I site behing my computer, it depends a bit, when it's school, I'm probably using it 4h or so (mostly between 17:00 and 22:00) and it is a problem, because I hardly study, I mean, half an hour of studying is a lot for me , but that explains my points a bit (altough, I only got ~5% less then somebody else who says she studys from 18:00 till 0:00 ).During the weekends, it's a lot more, realy something like 8h or so, same thing now.The only reason why I actualy sit behing the pc is because I have nothing else to do, realy, nothing, it sucks. I do have a hobby, but that's only on friday evening (and some performances, but nog too many lately ). And I don't like reading, so, nothing much left to do (and I don't have friends ).So, I'll vote 4-6h, seems fair since it's more school than weekend (no wait, that should be: )
  12. The windows updates can update a lot, going from security issues to small bugs in windows. It's best to keep them up to date. It's up to you to decide whether you want SP2 or not, but I'm sticking to SP1.About the logo test, I guess you mean that the drivers weren't signed by some M$ lab ? Don't worry, this generaly isn't a problem, it's just a logo that means that those drivers won't give any problems.
  13. About the game back-up, look in the folders of the game for folders or files called savegame. They can also be stored in my documents.
  14. Erm, if you format, you'll lose everything on that partition. If you have one hdd, one partition, you'll lose everything, windows, data, games, etc...Yes, you'll have to reinstall windowsxp and even better, it has a built-in option to format a hddAnd what's good about it, a lot. First of all, after a while of installing and uninstalling, there are lot of files on your hdd that aren't used anymore, they use space and can slow down you computer (during boot up, hdd access, ...). You can also start whith the newest driver w/o some left overs from the previous ones.Sorry that I don't answer all your question, but I've gotta go eat now
  15. AMD has actualy lost their fame from being very cheap. I mean, where was the time you could get a CPU for $50 ??? And it wasn't an Intel for shure.Intels prices are getting better these days, their dual cores are actualy a bit cheaper and maybe even faster then AMD Dual Cores.And (not shure) the FX57 costs +$1000, you get an Intel Extreme Edition Dual Core 3.2Ghz for that money, that are 2 cores + HT !Waste heat, is the energy that is created during a process, but isn't the energy you wanted. Eg. a light bulb creates a lot of heat, this is waste heat, because the energy you want is light, not heat.
  16. @cyborgxxiAbout you CPU error something error:This is probably because the CMOS data was cleared (maybe a bad battery) or something had changed the CPU settings that caused troubles on boot so it reset everthing. That's why your system clock was messed up, if the CMOS get cleared/reset, it will change time to 0:00 and date probably to when it was created.About the hanging of P4's, it could happen or seem like they hang, maybe I was a little bit wrong .And I wouldn't want to disable that feature, because I rather have a slow CPU then a dead CPU (don't forget, even today CPU's die because they run too hot).@dhanesh: you're sick man. Every 2 weeks ??? Do you have too much spare time and are you bored to death ??? Plz tell me you have some kind of unattended cd to install windows ??? Brrr, I wouldn't even consider doing such a boring task every 2 weeks . I prefer my totaly screwed up (but still safe) winxp (altough I hope I'll reinstall it before september, because Screw-up Utils 2004 or Windblows manager managed to double or even triple the boot time (and they screwed up some icons), and I have this problem that it won't load apps for a certain time because speedfan hangs (or something makes it hang or wait).But enough offtopic I guess
  17. I've just looked at mine, and there should be only one way to put it in.As a picture says more then a 1000 words: But I don't know how you managed to get it in the socket in 2 ways.Another interesting thing to know, does the mobo or the hardware on it actualy work ? I mean, there can be a lot of reason why it would beep, bad/no cpu, bad/wrong configured mem, ....
  18. when does it happen ? Suddenly, or while you're gaming, cpu intesive tasks ???If it's new and you (and we) can't find a solution, then go back to the shop and ask if they can resolve it under warranty ofcourse.If you realy think it's because of the heat (I guess you're from Be or Nl and you meant heat instead of hitte ? ), try checking the CPU's temperature (try speedfan to get temps).Another thing is that there are problems with the hdd, try to find the utility from the hdd manufacturer.Ow, other problem could be a bad PSU, but then you'll need a volt meter or something.It's just a matter of analyzing and excluding.
  19. I'm not realy shure about this one, but it might be that you Duron is one with the new lock. Problem is, you can't unlock it the easy way. You'll have to mod it to a mobile cpu so you can change multi's on the fly. This only works on a few chipsets (not the Nforce chipset, but it works on the KT400's ).Now, the pencil trick won't work either, you'll need to do it with silver conductive paint (http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ ) <- check out vid2 on how you should do it.
  20. Jep, always remain yourself. Honestly, I'd like to improve my social life, but no way I'm thinking about changing myself, I just can't do that. If they don't accept the way I am, then I'm very sorry, but I am who I am.But that doesn't mean you can improve yourself, me, by example, I'm realy lazy and I don't realy bother much about things that do not interest me (and that are a lot of things), and maybe that's the reason why I keep forgetting those things.I can at least try to do something about that, whithout realy changing me, w/o adapting myself to others.
  21. Self made, realy, it's much better when you make/configure it yourself. You can get what you want, not more, not less (and no expensive upgrades).Plus, if you assembled it yourself, you know your pc, it's much better when you know your hardware if an error occures.
  22. So, did they discover that just now ???We did that 3 years ago during the lessons chemistry. It's realy fun blowing thing up . And yes, you can use it for cars, never heard about cars running hydrogen. Don't be mistaken, when you ignite some pure hydrogen, you get a lot of energy, enough to move a piston.
  23. I've onced used BeOS, when I was still a n00b. It didn't realy work very well because it didn't supported my graka (S3 I guess) so it ran in graycolors , and it was rather slow (486 ).Think I'm going to try some other alternative OSes soon
  24. Nope, nothing works, the database remains empty .Doesn't realy matter anymore, I've manualy moved everything. Only thing I can't move are the comments, but the homepage only contained 3 comments.
  25. Here we don't have that much beggars, but when I see one, I don't know what to do, I just walk past without looking and when I've past the guy (strange, never seen a woman begging ) I feel sad that I didn't help that guy. I don't know why I do that, it's automatic , maybe my brains says, if I help this one, I should help the next on I see, and the next one ... because it wouldn't be fair to the other ones, and what the other day, when you see him, should you give money or feel guilty. It's not easy.
