  1. So i was trying to update drivers for my computer, so I uninstalled them, used driver cleaner. All that good stuff like you are suppose to. Boot up to try and install the new drivers, Blue Screen! So windows stops, in every single mode, safe, normal, last good config. So i pop in the xp disk, try to get to the recovery section, as soon as its done doing its whole loading deal, BOOM, Blue screen. So now i have no idea how im suppose to fix this, cant boot from xp disk to reformat if i needed to, cant get into any mode of windows =/ I have no idea what could be wrong, or how to fix it. Yo
  2. Since your young, im guessing you might still be in high school, if so, see what courses in programming in offer and start with what they have, and then join the class. I found its REALLY hard to start on your own because you lose motivation, or you try to do something too hard too fast and yu dont think you can do it. While in a classroom setting they give you small projects to get use to it. My school taugh Java, i learned it, and have gotten better than the teacher, in fact i havnt done anything in the class in almost a year. It's fun Just remember Motivation IS the hard part.
  3. I was kind of rootin for it to come, so that I can finally upgrade my PC. Its getting about that time and now im stuck between a rock and a hard place. Stay with what I got, Upgrade a bit and end up wasitng all that money, or just painfully wait it out... Im opting for the painful wait, im sure i can do it, just not gonna be fun

  7. Well, I started to try to learn C last night for about an hour, and then this afternoon I worked some more. As my first project, I attempted to make Tic-Tac-Toe. It's small, nothing special, but for only knowing C for a few hours, im proud There is no AI, so either get a friend or play by yourself Tic-Tac-Toe (18.6Kb) Tic-Tac-Toe Source

  10. Do you have the money to buy a new card if you break it? If yes go ahead, if not.... think about it. It can be worth the risk for the extra FPS, sometimes you get a good amount.

    Piracy Is Good!

    Actually the game company themselves state that they can't do anything about game piracy, so they dont do anything to protect the game, and through all the pirates that get a hold of it, they then tell their friends how good it is, so then those people end up buying it. http://galciv2.com/
  13. I'm not promoting piracy at all. But this article is very interesting. Piracy is good Sometimes the link doesn't want to work right.... so copy and paste! Galactic Civilzations 2 has no copy protection Wednesday March 08th 2006, 2:52 pm “We just got our report on the first week of sales of Galactic Civilizations II. Despite some availability problems, we’re told that we’re presently the best selling software title at Walmart. Let me be clear: Not just #1 PC game, but overall software. Best Buy, EB, and Gamestop have put in additional orders that actually exceed their initial sell
  14. I keep getting an email from some guy, and i keep deleting it, my anti-virus detects it as a worm. I get the e-mail 40-50 times a day and have no idea how to block it. I tried adding it to the junk list but that doesn't work. I'm using Thunderbird. Help! Thank you.

  18. My friend is selling his Dell DJ, its around 2 years old, hes planning on selling it to me for fairly cheap, around $45 and a 6month warrenty b/c he says its had a rough time. Basicully over the last 2 years it has been dropped, frozen, and experienced extreme temps (sits in car a lot). He says sometimes the HD makes weird noises, and i was wondering if the HD is able to take the beating and last another year or two?
  19. Ya that will work if you know where to place the files and how to extract the file packs, they are probuly somehow compressed and archived.
  20. O_O Glad we didn't have to see you on the news for starting a massive forest fire Make sure smokey the bear doesn't see this... he might come after you.. >_>
  21. comment removed by Dragon As for your question. Is it possible to skip the file? If you can try that, and note where it is trying to put it and manually extract it from the game disc if possible. I've done that a few times with success
  22. Only errors are for my digital camera and Ti-Graph Link wich I havn't installed yet. And wouldn't the drive not even work if the cables were loose? I will push them in some more, but ya...
  23. What drive? From the sound of it, it's talking about a CD-ROM drive b/c it says that the door might be open.
  24. I'm running WinXP, and after my latest reformat im getting an error when windows loads up that "Disk Not Ready" And i can [abort/rety/cancel] So i always cancel and everything works fine, but its annoying and was wondering why this happens and how i can fix it.
