  1. I always feel pumped up and want to hurt people after I play violent games but I've got self control. Er ... not sure what my point is. I don't hurt people even though I want to.
  2. Athriller, don't you know that jokes are much funnier when they're explained?
  3. £1000+ a month on eBay!

    You can find and download them on the torrent or edonkey network for free. Probably rubbish.
  4. picture and audio in forums

    If you use imageshack they give you the 'direct link to image' just after you upload, at the bottom of the page. For example:
  5. Hard Disk Drive problem

    Oooh, good spot. Could've saved me some hassle if I'd known that last week.
  6. Hard Disk Drive problem

    Try using Partion Magic, that worked for me a when I had a similar problem. You have to use the full version though, that's another problem.
  7. Help stop this unspeakable cruelty

    Please start contributing stuff that is worth reading. At the moment you're just a bit annoying.
  8. What do you think?

    Can anyone provide a series of links that go to the parts, or equivalent to those, mentioned above that would mean I could build the above comp for less than £645 factoring in V.A.T.? Cases, wires, leads, everything has to be listed. Half the price if you build it yourself? Prove it people.
  9. DVD burning/copying.

    Use DVDFAb decrypter, the free version and it'll rip the disc to your hard drive. You can then use DVD Shrink to resize it to a single layer DVD if you want. Use Nero to burn resultant files to a dvd disc. make sure you get the right iso mode or use a wizrd to guide you. No need to recode the video files either.
  10. Suggestions

    Nope, an ongoing problem. But Roadie, sometimes when I do that if I kill my browser and then open a new one later and come back, marked read threads/boards are no longer marked read and appear to have new posts, when they don't.
  11. Memory and CPU Relations

    I was up at the in-laws over the weekend and having to use their computer is a bit of a pain as, I think, there is a lack of memory. The comp has a 2.8Ghz P4 with a FSB of 533Mhz and 128 MB of PC2700 (333 Mhz?) RAM (and integrated graphics so that eats up RAM too). I was thinking about buying him a stick of RAM for Christmas but was wondering if I need to buy PC2100 or PC2700? Doesn't the FSB of the CPU affect the sort of RAM you can use, meaning that their stick of PC2700 RAM is only running at PC2100 speeds anyway? Or am I just totally confused? I know that the CPU is quad-pumped or something, and the RAM is double speed, so that would give 133MHz for the CPU and 166MHz for the RAM? So, anyway, please help.
  12. Memory and CPU Relations

    Cool, independence is what I needed to know, cheers. I can't begin to explain how badly it runs, whenever we go up there I end up tearing my hair out. Opening anything takes forever. My dad's comp is similar but with 256MB and a slightly slower processor and XP runs loads smoother on his.
  13. Photoshop this please :)

    Not cool.
  14. wma -> MP3

    As shaq365 says lossy to lossy isn't the best thing. If you are gonna convert them to mp3 do it at a highish bitrate (192+) to minimise the effect of the conversion. Why are you doing it?
  15. Post your Desktop(56k no no)

    Your task bar looks stupid. The start button seems all squished.
  16. AVI to DVD

    Do you want to just burn the avi files to a disc or convert them to proper dvds? I'm guessing just burning them. You could try using different discs to the ones you are using, try burning at a really low speed, try not use your comp for other stuff while you are burning ... Can you suucessfully burn other types of files to dvd disc? How old is your drive? Try deepburner, another free burning program, that I quite like.
  17. The Happy Birthday Thread

    Er ... no she doesn't know, and she most likely never, ever, ever will! It's not a serious pic anyway so I don't think she'd care. Now I feel kind of worried though.
  18. Hi Everybody

    If anybody has the eggcup/egghead pics stored and is willing to show them here, I'd appreciate it.
  19. Linux Help!

    If you change the thread title to 'Linux help' you may get more help from the Linux fanboys (Schpickles, I'm looking at you.)
  20. The Happy Birthday Thread

    Reindeer antlers, and one broke. It was very sad.
  21. The Happy Birthday Thread

    As a 'it's my birthday treat' here is me displaying the emotions despair and love.
  22. The Happy Birthday Thread

    *is touched and sheds a tear*
  23. The Happy Birthday Thread

    Happy birthday to me! I don't know what I've got yet, I'll find out later.
  24. Erase My Hard Drive

    Do you want to re-install windows or is it a spare hard drive? If you are going to re-install, are you sure? If you can't delete the information on a disk maybe it's not the best idea to attempt that.
  25. Linux Help!

    With difficulty, I'm afraid. Try using google or looking on the applications' home pages for some instructions. Or, I think ubuntu can use something called apt-get that can automate a lot of the stuff. Look for System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager or something like that. Or check that the apt-get command works. Overall, I dunno though, Linux is a toughie, and it's hard from the outset.
