  1. Is there any sort of program where I can copy a clip of the video somehow? Or what if I download the video again into a different file location but stop the download after it reaches halfway? I know the file would be deleted if you stop it from downloading fully, but I just can't seem to think there is no absolute way on copying a small clip of a larger video.
  2. Also I didn't know a topic about this has already existed. Sorry about that.
  3. Well I like to download music and video files and sometimes it takes longer surfing the internet while I am downloading something. So I like to leave my computer on at night so it can download music files from a friends FTP, but was just curious if leaving the computer on all night might cause a problem with the system.
  4. Ok, I want to host a video that I have in my computer, but the problem is that the video is too big, 790MB. My host can't handle a file that huge so I was wondering if there is any way I can make the video file in my computer smaller? I don't want to mess up the video and make it smaller, I was wondering if I can keep the current 790MB video that I already have but copy only about 10MB of the video into a new file that I can use for hosting. Anyone know?
  5. I was wondering if leaving your computer turned on 24/7 such as leaving it on when you go to sleep will harm your computer? I heard some people say that leaving the computer on for a long period of time without shutting down the system will harm your computer. Is this true?
  6. I have a PC. I never tried an mac, but I heard they run much faster. I don't think you can play games on a mac.
  7. Sports games are great, but once you win the champsionship you get easily bored with them. Unless you play muliplayer, now those are fun.
  8. Firefox is much better then Internet Explorer. I always used IE and my friends kept telling me to change to Firefox. They were right. I like the extra protection firefox gives and the tabs you can use while browsing. The page also looks so much better on firefox than it does on Internet Explorer. Some people also use Maxathon, but I don't know how that browser is.
  9. Well I have only been taught things such as working with Microsoft Word, Publisher, Excel, Power Point. I haven't been taught much about computer hardware and I may want to get into that when I go to college.
  10. My guess is the Video Card. I have the same problem. My computer works fine with everything except playing games, the better ones at least. The problem with computer games is that they make new ones and the newer they get the older your computer will get. Check if the game fits the Video Card requirements of your computer that could be the problem. I have had this problem many times.

  12. I like Solid Snake from Medal Gear. He is tough and fears nothing. Also he can accomplish missions without bragging like the one where he blow up a tank in Metal Gear Solid and said "ah, it was no big deal." I hated it when they took Snake out of Sons of Liberty.
  13. I would have to say Computer is better. I have Ps2 and it's great, but i'm mainly into strategy games and the best come from the PC. The problem with Computer Games is that you have to go through the hassle of installing them and sometimes your computer will betray you and have an error with the game which drives me crazy. That would be great if computer games can just play automatically like on any console. But definitely the best games come from the computer.But with ps3 and the new Xbox I would have to say the Playstation. I got used to it and it has a smaller console and controller compared to the X-Box.
  14. Yahoo and Google have the most sites available for the information you type. All the other search engines that I know of stink.
  15. I think they should have given you the Anti-Virus and Spyware CD if they did it for you. Because if you have another computer problem and those programs get deleted you will need the discs to reinstall them. I had to same problem a few years ago and they installed the Anti-Virus for me after doing a system restore. It costed me around $120. My cousin who is computer illiterate refused to download an anti virus and every week had crashes. He took the computer to Best Buy at an average of 4 times a month only for them to do a system restore and give it back to him. He was only lucky that his computer was under the warantee or he would be owing Best Buy thousands of the dollars. He finally got them to install an anti-virus after all those problems.Every computer must have an Anti-Virus, if you don't then you are in trouble. Although Best Buy charges crazy prices for a simple thing like installing an Anti-Virus it's still better getting an Anti-Virus then not having one at all. I have Norton Anti-Virus, Firewall, Spysweeper and sometimes bad things still manage to sneak into my computer. To prevent a virus always remember to scan files that look suspicious, especially if you're using a peer to peer program such as Kazaa. Also stay away from the porn websites, they are virus heaven
  16. Well I am interested in how good the money pays, but I also want to enjoy my work and not be like one of those people who make lots of money, but they hate their job to the death. I'm interested in computer hardware and fixing computers, I also am interested in being involved with computer gaming.
  17. Yeah, I agree. I remember when those old games used to sell for $50-$70, and now you can get them for $5. Still I prefer NBA Jam 95 for Super Nintendo over the 2005 version of Playstation 2 anyday. What the new NBA version doesn't have is fireballs like the old version does Sometimes newer isn't better.
  18. I use the Bitlord Bitorrent and so far had no problems on my system with it. I think Bitorrents are great and pretty quick depending on your interenet connection. Unless you have a phone line, which then makes bitorrents extremely slow and not worth the hassle. But with a good internet connection they are great. The only thing is that if you have a firewall it might interfere with the speed of your downloads. But most of the time bitorrents are safe, just do a virus scan before you download a file.
  19. That is funny, but I think that if everyone had these see through sun glasses there would be dozens of protests to have this thing banned. So that takes the fun out of everything
  20. This is interesting. I think Atlantis has a special connection with Greek Mythology if I am not mistaken. Many people claim that Atlantis could have been located somewhere in North America.
  21. Does anyone miss the old Super Nintendo system and the video games? I sure do miss it. I grew up playing Nintendo then Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis. I think those games were very fun and entertaining such as Yosies Island, Super Mario, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, NBA Jam, and Zelda. I miss playing those games. Although Playstation, Gamr Cube, and X Box are better in graphics I still don't get the fun out of those games as much as I used to on the old systems. The old gaming systems have this special connection and I had much more fun playing the old games than the new ones. Perhaps in the future people will be going back to the old systems and playing the old games, who knows. Anyone agree?
  22. That is very interesting. I always wondered how those things were invented.
  23. I believe in God and the bible. I think people underestimate the bible as it can be very informative and infact accurate. I don't take the bible 100% literally such as maybe the 7 Day part didn't mean the 7 day 24 Hour period. Christ speaked in many parables and that's the way the bible was written. It's still a magnificent peace of work with stories and literature. Also the beautiful psalms it contains.
  24. Wow, It's hard to imagine how computers were like before Windows came out. I heard that the very first computers were huge and they took hours to solve a simple math problem such as 2 + 2. It has been a great achievement as to how far we have gotten with computers. Now in the digital age things get smaller and faster (Cell Phones,Watches,TV's) and now we have flat screens and DVD's. I wonder in the next 50 years what kind of new computer technology we will be seeing.
