Re: Black Mesa (finally)

couldn't download it by the website, torrent works fine for me, I got the max download speed that I could let run without slowing my network down to a crawl

Re: Random Pics & Vids of Awesome

this is just pure gold: http://mlpfim.co.uk/milkymilky.jpg Lol at work they gave me a high end MacBook Pro and I wanted to connect it to a monitor to have more desktop space. Since they want their laptops to be slim they can't have a VGA out, so I need a Mini Display port to DVI/VGA 34$ At least my...

Re: WIFI Digital Picture Frame

I finally found a WIFI Digital Picture Frame that has the features that I want (mainly connecting to my media server where photos are stored). It's the Sony 7" 800x400 Digital Photo Frame . I originally found it when I started the thread in January, but I found out that it was only available in...

Running Steam games from 2 different drives

I recently got an SSD for my laptop and a modular tray to install a second hard drive instead of a DVD drive in the modular slot. I found a program that allows you to run games both on the SSD and the HDD with a single Steam install. So I can run some games off the SSD for fast loads and the others ...

Re: Odd Wireless Router/Networking issue.

I'm assuming you are connected through the wireless? I had problems with neighboring routers transmitting on the same channel that caused interference with mine so I changed the channel from the default one. I had a WRT54G2 v1.5 (specifically the v1.5 revision) that was not connecting to the interne...

Re: Benchmark Post

Yeah, I'm quite embarrassed with my benchmarks. I have a laptop and not a custom built desktop computer sigh... so everything is low, except the SSD. My laptop is from 2009 with a Intel GM45/PM45 chipset with a NVIDIA Quandro NVS graphics card, nothing compared to your custom built computers. But I'...

Re: SSD Harddrive

I finally invested in a SSD drive for my laptop, got an Intel 520 Series 120GB for 160$.

Boot used to take 1-2 minutes (newly reformated HDD about 4 months ago), now it's down to 30 seconds flat with steam loaded and logged on.

I will never go back to HDD for booting or frequently used programs.

Re: My FUCKING MoBO

Not worth reparing a mobo, just get a new one, avoids it being broken again

Re: Mass Effect 3

I loved the story, everything little story in the series ties into each other, just not happy about the amount of work and time that needs to be invested to get a reasonable ending. My 2 cents.

Re: Mass Effect 3

So I finally remembered what I did with the ME2 file that had the ME1 import, I re-imported it in ME2 to play again and forgot about it (like I only started the missions before downloading the collector ship data, so it's a bit too long to do) but I have another character that is further along with ...

Re: Mass Effect 3

omfg! if you created a custom Shepard in ME1, you CANNOT import the custom face in ME3! How could Bioware have missed this? i mean you play 2 games with one face and for what?? geeez, they wont even admit its a bug, they called "an issue". http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/323/index...
