Oh wow, that's horrible. My prayers and condolences go to her family. I hope justice is served and that they get the guy who did this. B

Thanks Marty, Happy Holidays to you as well! B

I've used it. Not to fix a machine, but for remote access. I like it. Even the free version is nice (however you can't transfer files with it), overall its pretty quick in terms of operating speed, though that would also depend on the connection as well. All you need to install is a little program that runs as a service on your machine and sits in your taskbar. It will keep track of IP changes so if you have a dynamic IP it'll update via the service that runs on the machine. It makes everything very simple as it's all web based. B

I stumbled across this article and thought it was interesting...let alone a great idea. How the cops use YouTube B

That is also true. I'm going to have to think about it. If it were to happen I'd have to see a way to arrange the forum so it would be efficient and not too long. Btw, Thanks glad you like them. B

I just installed the plugin (foobar2000 one) for Last FM, I had it installed previously but got rid of it, so I have a few songs up from the previous time it was installed. Anyway, I should have installed it sooner, lol. Kind of upset as I love music and showing what I listen to. Anyway, the list should be updated in a while with some new stuff... Add me as friend if you want http://www.last.fm/user/Besttechie/ B

Hi Shane, It will run, yes. Will it run the way your XP runs? No. If you're into gaming and you run Vista on that machine I think you'll have a few issues. If you really want to upgrade to Vista I recommend you upgrade the processor which most likely means a new motherboard, and probably new ram (I'd get at least 2GB), and you're going to want a DX (Direct X) 10 card I would think since you like to game. Yeah, in my honest personal opinion your better off just buying or building a new box. You'll want SATA or SATA2 drives, and the rest of the stuff I listed above. Also, if you want to r

Hi Shane, That was the way it was originally here, however a bunch of members didn't like that layout if I remember correctly it was too confusing, so we switched it and everything goes under PC Support - Windows (All Versions), Hardware, Software, Networking, etc. except for Mac OS and Linux/Unix (they still have their own). However, we could take a poll and see what people prefer now? I'm okay with either way. B

Hey Shane, Glad you decided to join, I hope you like it here. We're a very friendly bunch. Welcome to BestTechie.net! B

Hehe, there you go! Glad you got it working! B

TT is right, if you meant the one that shows up in all your posts you need to edit your avatar NOT your personal picture. B

What's the new one look like? I see a cat with a Santa hat on is that the new one? B

Site seems to be down... at least skyfexfree.com is. B

Haven't had any problems here. B

I think I should also point out the fact that if I recall correctly, the GS series is the lower end model of the card. However, I read a review that said it seems to be quite a nice card: http://www.nforcershq.com/article6621.html B

Yeah, it's a nice upgrade - I assume he games? Also, I'm not a big fan of EVGA - but that's just personal preference. B

Well, I guess the question is what's his current card? B

Very nice picture mike, thanks for sharing B

Hey Bubba, Have a nice trip and stay safe. Hope the CB Radio helps you during your journey (btw, pretty neat install job there!) Have a good one! B

I mean, do you think they're actually going to redo the entire game so it'll fill up an entire blu-ray. The answer is No, they most likely won't. Sure they'll make the games available for the PS3, but they won't be any different than they are on the 360...In fact, the 360 will probably play them better. The only game company who will fill up an entire blu-ray is Sony and that's because it's their game console, lol. B

Yea, but you really have to think .. do you really think game developers are going to redo an entire game just to make it fit on a Blu-Ray disk? I highly doubt it. I think the PS3 is going to a major upset. I want to get a Wii and a 360. B

Shoulda told them to come to BestTechie.net and post a HJT log. B

Hmm. not sure exactly what happened, but it should be back in the options list now. B

Yep, hopefully it should be taken care of now. Since I've put in place the new image verification (this morning) we have had no new spambots. B

Hi Gina, Yes, please follow the HijackThis posting directions and someone will help you from there. B
