    Word Document to Power Point: Possible?

    Well it seems that I have been utilizing many of the points given. My backgrounds are simple/plain, I usually use one color, two at the most, I rarely use more than one font, my fonts are big enough for the audience to read, try to keep every slide free from "cramming" content, and I don't use...

    Word Document to Power Point: Possible?

    I need to make a presentation in a week. Right now I am researching and typing out my notes in Word document. A good deal of my notes I want to use for a Power Point presentation. 1. Is there a way to transfer my notes to Power Point without me having to type them out again? 2. If I can, is...

    My brother and I along with a few others will occasionally run a 1e adventure. It is amazing how fasty we can roll up and finish PCs in little time.

    Silmarillion - worth reading?

    If you approach it more from a "historical" perspective then the Silmarillion should be interesting. It gives the reader pre-Third Age information that I found interesting.

    Retreating *is* an option!

    Same here; if it got too difficult we retreated. All the DM can do is present a situation. The players have options with said encounter. Actually you were being very kind because there are those DMs who would not give a clue.

    Is It My Sound Card?

    Yes, and thanks for asking. There still isn't any resolve as of now for the X800 cards and NWN. I misread that the 6,8 catalyst driver resolves the issue because it doesn't. However, I do know, at least at this point my M-Audio sound card should be fine. The Stop Error/Blue Screen of Death...

    Star Trek: 40th Anniversary

    For old times sake I watched the 40th anniversary celebration of the airing of the first Star Trek tonight on TV Land. I'm going to show my age but I remember quite well the very first airing of the very first show on Thursday, September 8, 1966. It scared me so bad with the salt sucking...

    Is It My Sound Card?

    I disabled the built-in audio because realTech onboard has issues of its own. I just read that X800 video cards have issues and lo and behold I have an X800GTO. Supposedly the latest driver fixes this. let's hope.

    Could Spore Change D&D Forever?

    To add to what you said, think of what the NWN community did with the game tool set. They are a very creative bunch that went beyond anything BioWare imagined. The issue is whether or not the makers of Spore will release a tool kit. If they do what you theorize could come very true.

    Is It My Sound Card?

    Man, this is frustrating. Thanks for the link freebfrost. It at least helps me to eliminate the IRQ possibility.

    Is It My Sound Card?

    freebfrost, another person on Overclocker's forum who had the same issues as me with the Revolution 5.1 suggested (it wasn't the Alex I mentioned in my fiirst post) that I look into my IRQ numbers because his Revolution 5.1 was interfering with another PCI card due to the sharing of the same...

    Is It My Sound Card?

    As several of you know I have been unable to load NWN once it is installed (see previous post) and many here as well as other sites have mentioned the sound card drivers as a major culprit. The thing is I have an M-Audio Revolution 5.1 sound card. The latest and last driver is two years old...

    Driver IRQL not less or equal? What does that mean?

    Tons of people have gotten this message. I know I have and I've narrowed it down to 3 possibilities. 1. My Logitech MX 310 mouse. There is a known kernel conflict with the Windows XP 32 bit system. However, I did download the latest driver. Still I get an occasional system crash and then...

    It appears that Star Trek has learnt from Star Wars

    Manny Coto is a BIG fan of the Original Series and I noticed the fourth and final season of Enterprise definitly picked up in quality. Berman and Braga figured out too late that their direction was killing the franchise when a great many saw the Fall of the Franchise way back in Voyager days.

    It appears that Star Trek has learnt from Star Wars

    I'm with you on this one Ranger REG. Voyager was awful. It was Berman & Braga's attempt, along with Enterprise, to create Trek in their own image. Look what its gotten us.

    It appears that Star Trek has learnt from Star Wars

    Well considering that the first Star Trek series was literally going where no FX has ever gone before because, well, no one ever attempted it before is the reason it looks so "cheesy" by today's standards. There were no computer rendered graphics anything in those days. Then there is Voyager...

    *Sigh*, now I have video card problems...

    trancejeremy, I always check NewEgg and ZipZoomFly first. Anyway, it sounds more and more to me like it really is your power supply dieing on you. PSUs are the backbone of any rig and once they start going it is amazing the various issues that occur. keep us uptodate.

    Can't Get NWN to Load -- any Suggestions?

    This is not good news for me because I have an M-Audio Revolution 5.1 soundcard which is a great card with quality but since they are not in the soundcard business anymore they haven't released a new driver since 2 years ago and they won't be doing it in the future. The confusing thing is my...

    Can't Get NWN to Load -- any Suggestions?

    First of all I want to thank every one who has responded. Believe it or not I have received better advice from this forum than a great many forums on so called Computer Tech specialists. I do not have a Daemon or some other CD/DVD emulator. Anyway, my sound card is a very good one but M-Audio...
