  1. that looks like a horror/action movie...i like it!!!! looks like they were fixing what was horrible about the first movie! i honestly thought the first AvP was horrible at best.
  2. ok thanks. i was curious since i dont want to have to be on my laptop waiting for another order to process to get xp if my desktop doesn't work....because noone around here sells xp pro....not even walmart, unless i order it
  3. i have cable one, what are your advertised speeds....around here it is over 100 a month for anything 5mbps or over. my 3mbps connection has been faster also see: but nice speeds. but what package is that?
  4. when you change your motherboard you also have to make sure it is the right socket type...like for intel its probably going to be 775 or amd, maybe it would be AM2
  5. every review i've ever read about this processor is fine, except some where people have poor cooling in their cases....and i know for a fact i have good cooling....especially since my pc heat sensor says its only around 85-90 farenheit....i have a HUGE side air vent for the cpu and 3x 120mm fans for exhaust, intake, and blowing hot air from the graphics card. i might get the 5600+ since it is probably cheaper....but i wanted that for this gaming machine. (yes tommie i have a gaming machine.) i guess the 2.8ghz is alot better than my single core 2.4ghz anyhow. btw, since i am running xp pro OEM will i have to rebuy a windows key or something since im changing the cpu?
  6. whats your take on this? its a 3ghz dual core cpu socket am2. here is the link. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103773&Tpk=amd%2bathlon%2b64%2bx2 other specs are this that i already have in my custom pc. cpu 2.4ghz athlon 64 3800+ (current, want to get the 6000+) 2gigs pc6400 ADATA ram with heatspreader 512mb evga geforce 7950GT KO pci express graphics 120gb SATA 3gb/s hard drive. acer 22" wide monitor hipro 500watt psu biostar tforce 550 motherboard socket am2 xp pro btw, soon i will get another gig of ram since its only 40 bucks... and a new harddrive 160gb and vista home premium.
  7. if you want vista or windows in general then the asus, but they have simlilar models for cheaper of the asus. but for power/reliability check out the mac.
  8. thats what i pay cableone for my 3mb download speeds. DAMN
  9. Happy birthday, enjoy! /happy_bday.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':bday:' />:' />
  10. true but i didnt like it so i didnt want to say it worked since i only tried it once. lol
  11. i have answered this before in another thread. and while i personally dont reccomend downloading them since there is no actual link, i do have the answer. i just googled it and here are the results. youtube download tool http://www.techcrunch.com/get-youtube-movie/ here is just the google result for the rest, since i will not test them i do not know for sure if they work. http://javimoya.com/blog/youtube_en.php
  12. i say Oct. 5th.
  13. check the "Image" menu up at the top of "GIMP" (up by file, edit, etc.) and under the Image menu it should say image scale. that is what you want. i'm doing this from memory but that should be really close.
  14. thanks. i hope it stays like this...especially since my router doesnt work anymore...and i have to power cycle my modem every tiem i reboot my pc.
  15. correct, just get the live cd downloaded and it will work.
  16. honestly i used Suse linux 10.2 and it was pretty nice. i had it dualbooted with xp media center on my laptop. you'd be suprised how well it works.
  17. here is a test i just took. and i am consistently getting these speeds after using cablenut settings. btw i'm on the 3mbps donwload and 270kbps upload package... here is a speed test i just finished :::..

  18. crazy, i have never seen saw 3, but i know the plot from my friends telling me. but that one looks cool. even though 2 was kind of a let down i want to see the third and then this one.
  19. yeah that worked. thats cool nice job
  20. i get this The folder you requested is not available. Either you do not have the permission to view it (try logging in) or it may have been deleted by the owner.
  21. for some reason after getting home from my vacation my wireless on my laptop is not working. i have reset the router, modem, laptop, desktop pcs, etc. and no dice. it will enable wireless and search for networks but wont find any...any ideas? the only change i have made to the system is the theme, from media center theme to classic windows. I have a linksys wireless router, and looking at it now, the WLAN light keeps shutting off. edit/ my whole net keeps shutting down lol im going to reinstall the drivers.
  22. no battery. just a cheap gun. although, since i am looking for a new airsoft rifle, is there any suggestions for one? especially one that goes full auto. and lets keep it around or below 50 bucks. if possible.
  23. if the switch was broken, wouldn't it not shoot at all? if i switch it to auto, it still shoots, but on Semi. i think that usspecialarmycadets is right that spring loaders won't shoot auto...but of course, you probably know more about it than me since i just got it...
  24. yeah thats what i figured. im looking into getting an air one instead of spring. ...how good are the shotguns? seems kind of weird to have a shotgun that shoots plastic bb's.
