Xanien, you were always a sensitive fellow... Once you cone to terms that internet forums are not serious business, I think it'll get better. The entire internet is a flame fest. Until someone from the internet throws a brick through your window and pees on your cat, taking internet drama seriously ...

Because I love you guys soooo much, and because I think Jim really wanted to reminisce on this, I did some digging in the old BFF folder and found this for you... apologies, but the images don't come with it... I still have them but simply can't make them post in here in their original form... but t...

One that didn't actually die. Hilarious that Garamond recently was banned from there. For spamming, of course.

Wow... I would have thought even he would have discovered a women by now... maybe I'm setting the bar too high.

As Chewi said, the stories themselves weren't particularly funny, it was the reactions caused because, yes, a lot of those people completely freaked out, threated us with non existent lawyers, and it was just overall a good time... I was never under any impression that anyone enjoyed reading that st...

yup, i hit that at age 22, I was like... ok well not other big birthdays to look forward to after 21... whenever someone asks how old I am i usually have to stop and think for a minute.

That's a bullshit rule tbh.

"OMG it's RUDE!"

Age is a fucking number, not the boogey man.

For me, I just don't use MSN messenger period, so I never have this problem with files. It's bad enough i have to use windows if I want to be a PC gamer, but Bill isn't getting shit else on my machine.... excluding of course DirectX

Out of interest, does your machine have IDE at all? I would expect so, I don't think they've gone SATA with DVD drives yet and I think all IDE controllers can handle two drives, which would leave room for a spare old hard drive if you have one. My MB has 1 IDE, 1 FDD (that's for a floppy drive) and...

hope it's a happy one.

I've never heard of a jumper that does something like that to a hard drive. It's a compatibility thing. It is a SATA drive, and old SATA boards support what is now being called SATA1 which has a transfer rate of 1.5Gb/s. Newer Motherboards have come out with support for SATA2, which has a faster 3....

Ok, well my issue has been solved. it was that chintsy plastic pop clip design to attach the CPU sink to the MB. They were not in properly so i had to remove the whole damn MB and force them in from both sides... it even bows the motherboard slightly, which I am told is what is supposed to happen. W...

Well 2 questions. First how is it for gaming, and second... what does that translate roughly to in $$?

The thermal paste can make a big difference. Applying it well is very important. Mmm, I'm thinking of ordering some extra. Now the fan unit came with a sort of grey squish on it already, in three rather precise looking shapes. After attaching the fan they squished to cover most of the contact betwe...

As far as I can tell that leaves less room for overclocking. If you had a 1333FSB motherboard and my 6600, you could overclock the 2.4 to a 3.0 without risking damaging the motherboard. Currently I switch mine between 1460 (3.4) and the factory set. Usually when I'm playing games :D You could proba...

It's ALIVE! As of this morning new PC codenamed FBE2 is alive and kicking... now begins the tedium of installing new software, ugh. It took over an hour just to transfer my document, photo and music files from the old machine... and several problems getting this thing off the ground... Windows XP pr...
