If you can't isolate the problem via process of elimination in msconfig as suggested above (or worse, unchecking EVERYTHING still blue screens you) there are three commands you can try running from Recovery Console that are not too difficult and just may help. To get to Recovery Console boot...

Vista Ultimate = I wonder if we put all the features of business and home premium together if gamers will buy it just because it's at the bottom of the OS dropdown with the biggest number and the word Ultimate after it? Hmmmm.. Worth a shot! ^_^ ((Apologies to any domain administering...

Yeah, our Vista test box works passably but it's bare minimum specs. I have to guess this was a hardware issue because rather than just send it back initially the second time I formatted it and installed a copy of XP off one of our dead laptops. Still couldn't install or run WoW. I was...

That looks very similar to the 7500 I just bought from Alienware. Bottom line I had the thing for about 6 days total and had to ask for a refund. Be it the beta video drivers for the 8800 video card or just plain Vista, it blue screened on my constantly. I spent the first 3 days trying to fix...

Regarding Freespace 2: Damn that's a lot of work. But looking at it and the Battlestar Galactica, Babylon 5, and other conversions built off it, as well as the sheer number of campaigns written for it, that's probably the way I'll go. Recommend me a good flight stick?

I sometimes sit back and think to myself, "I wish I were a fighter pilot." There are any number of reasons why this isn't going to happen, but being a gamer it occurs to me I could at least enjoy the little thrill I get when I see the fighter jets fly over in my hobby. I remember fondly the...

Indeed. ^_^ I liked the part where both combatants got to enter the grapple freely because the dragon had already begun grappling with Orson. Tactical mistake lizard breath.

All mine came from quests up til a point. I'm Horde so the list is a little different from you but in most cases there are equivalents. Check out some of these (all quest rewards): Ranged: http://www.wowhead.com/?item=31072 Main hand: http://www.wowhead.com/?item=30013 Off hand...

I love that handcannon. Even nerfed it is made of win. ^_^ And apparently Aznable agrees.

Aw c'mon. He coulda been doing it to provoke the dragon into attacking him rather than eating the wizard or the cleric. Or he coulda been doing it because like any mid level fighter he's handicapped by flying opponents who can attack at range and figured the cave would force him into reach...

Full power attack while fighting defensively using two medium weapons without two weapon fighting.... "What? It's not like my chances could get any worse, would you guys just hurry up and kill him so we can move on to something I feel useful against please?"

I thought this WAS what was once called Divertimento. ^_^

Not really. The scope improves, the stakes get higher, they introduce more archetypes (professor, silent swordsman, rebel with a soft spot for children), but it never really improves. I watch it because it's pretty and it's free, but even I have to admit when my wife walks by that it really is...

Fun toy! This is me: http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/#character-sheet.xml?r=Thorium+Brotherhood&n=Groznar 70 Orc Hunter, Thorium Brotherhood (rp server)

As I recall from the original thread, all the PC's are spell casters at some level, but the rule was no more than half your levels can be caster levels. And one of them is a kind of Kensai variant modeled to this setting. She slaughters some guy in an honor duel I thought.

Totally missed that! He deserved the slap, but I forgot about the free surprise hit slaps. ^_^

Matter rearrangement at the molecular level has been in the Surfer's arsenal for a long time as far as I know. But when you can blast things with the Power Cosmic or throw buildings at people, it doesn't get very much play. As for popping windows while blasting by the building at high speed...

I really like my bad guys bad and torture is just a part of it. It was one of the things that made me like MI:3. At the time I saw it I felt that they were finally bringing actual consequences into play. Bringing physical pain to Bond (staircase, torture), real emotional pain (well done Mr...

...All that over 100 million dollars?
