A little tweakage netted 11921

If this is HipDad, I believe I sent you an email telling you that the SM 6.0 security settings were responsible for changing your share permissions. Looks like I was right...

That is a cool looking PSU, I like the connectors they use on the cables where they attach to the PSU body.

I just want to say...if Word ever got dropped off out here in AR, he'd blend in with the locals perfectly.

Just thought I'd share this;

I worked in a retail tech support position for a few months, it happens more often than you'd think. We had a school computer lab that had bought a bunch of PCs with crap PSUs unload 4 PSUs in a period of a week about 3 months after the PCs were out of warranty. Of those 4 2 were killed deader...

Trust me, a shoddy vid card isn't going to kill my HDD's or my mobo or CPU or ram or...I think you're starting to see my point. Most people go "oh hell no, there's no way the PSU can toast everything..." I've seen it, it's not pretty but it can and DOES happen.

I'm up in the air about OCZ's PSU quality myself, they're still new and until I read more from longtime users the jury is out. For all I know they just might be overcharging for a middling PSU.

The PSU is the single most important link in the PC chain, a bad PSU causes stability issues, kills parts and possibly the whole PC. The sad fact is that there's plenty of awareness of this issue but too many people are too chincy to pony up the extra $30 or $40 a quality PSU will run them or...

I finally got to play it with the brightness cranked up and it's not too bad but I just wish that all weapons had a flashlight since you're either sporting ther nailgun that kicks some serious bootay but you're blind as a bat in some places or the machine gun which lets you get a really good...

It'll be a far sight better than a cheaper unit with integrated graphics would be but since it's likely AGP as opposed to PCI-E on the graphics interface you'll be limited for future upgrades since the 6800GT and Ultra AGP flavors are quickly disapearing from the marketplace. The x850 and...

There are tons of games that don't rely on B-horror lighting effects to build tension or to show off fancy lighting effects so, no, I have no plans to stop playing games any time soon. I haven't played fear sp, just mp and the lighting in mp is great but in q3 arena it was still pretty dark but...

I ate so much it's like 9 hours later and I'm still full...got to watch my great nephew eat his first thanksgiving meal too which was hella cool. :D

When you're up close to the NPC's you can tell no problem but when they're off at a distance and in shadows it's hard to tell unless it's the uber big baddy, the others pass for human until they unload on you. Yes my monitor is messed up but not in a brightness/contrast way, I've calibrated it...

Get this, I turned the brightness up in the game to help get it to where you could actually tell if you were shooting good guys or bad guys and the game crashed, after it crashed it hosed the gamma for my vid drivers and I had to reboot to get the gamma back to where it was supposed to be. I'm...

I'm glad you like it, all I can say is if the rest of the game is like this I'll spend any money I had earmarked for this game on something else. I like being able to see what I'm shooting at.

FarCry wasn't this murky yet it still managed to pull off some very good scares. You'd think that after all the bad press D3 got for being just another dark shooter id would've tried something else.

I just finished playing the Quake 4 demo and my thoughts are man, another murky shooter, how original. I wish they could make a game you can actually see wtf is happening. Is there some rule stating that id games have to be dimly lit and as clear as mud? Other than the dimness it's pretty...

To all our U.S. regulars, Happy Thanksgiving, time to eat until you pass smooth out!
