I tried Partition Magic, it gave me an error. I am reformatting the different partitions and just going to leave it alone. At least I still get to use all 100GB of the damn thing, I just have it allocated into 4 smaller drives I guess. No big deal as long as I can still use the damn thing.

I don't know what it was but Opera always made the websites look scrunched. I hated it. Nothing displayed right. I never even tried to figure it out I just went back to Firefox. Not really sure which version I even have. It is version 2. something.

If it says Dreamcast then buy it. ALL of their games were good. Except maybe the GTA and Tony Hawks games they weren't so much.
I actually have Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Street Fighter 3rd Strike and I haven't even hooked my DC up since I got either of them. The only other games I have right now are Evolution, Sonic Adventure, Mortal Kombat Gold and I think that is it.

I tried, I really did, I am on the last dungeon on Zelda 1 for NES, but I can't find the silver arrows and I keep dieing. I only played the first five minutes of MM and WW I got stuck on the first island and gave up.

"Cannot Lock the Drive, Volume is still in use"
What the hell does that mean? I think I am just going to have to find a working Windows install disc, or try my only MAC OS install disc on it.
Ok so I went into My Computer and it lets me format the drive there, but it shows as only 20GB available!? How do I get the rest of the drive back? Damn it this is starting to frustrate me/

See, that's not a selling point for me. I SUCK at crossword puzzles. It took me 2.5 hours to beat the hard puzzle on the demo. And that's with using all my points for the alternate clues plus getting some Google & Wikipedia help.
Well you could just go down the alphabet 1 letter at a time like I did on the hard ones, but that could be considered cheating. Also the stupid game has a hard time reading my hand writing and turns everything into a Q or a K.

« on: May 16, 2008, 05:38:08 PM »Zelda needs something COMPLETELY new, which means dragging it kicking and screaming out of the dark ages.
I agree with this 100%, the only Zelda I have ever finished is ALTTP and as much as I wanted to finish OOT and TW, It gets boring doing the same thing over and over. Not that I don't love OOT or TP, but I would like to see Zelda in a futuristic setting, but I seriously doubt Nintendo would ever do this so making me want it is evil of you guys.

Ok so there are 4 different ones, two have "Delete Partition" and "Format" as options, the other two say "Delete Logical Drive" but Format is not an option. The root drive (the main drive letter) is all that shows up now, but it still doesn't let me format the drive.

thanks, that was easier than what I was going to do. The only other way I could think of to do it was to use a Windows Installation Disc and I couldn't find one that works 
But I will try this method and report back.

Well since there is no official Technical Discussion forum and I have been having a lot of questions I wanted to start a new thread where I intend to put ALL of my computer and other hardware questions so as not to clutter this place up.
So here is my latest dilemma, I got a 120GB hard drive off someones computer that wasn't using it when they upgraded to a newer computer, well turns out it is all formatted weird, instead of the ususal 1 or 2 partitions, there are five smaller drives which makes using the stupid thing extremely difficult. So what I want to do is reformat the entire drive to just 1 partition, how do I do that?
I tried just right-clicking on them and selecting Format but when I do that it only lets me select 1 drive at a time. I am going to try some things, but if I can't figure it out I will check back here incase someone posts something usefull thanks.

Nintendo Gaming / Re: Official Wii Sales Thread
« on: May 15, 2008, 11:37:00 PM »GTAIV did NOTHING to boost 360 and PS3 sales! NOTHING!
Oh... my... god
It's over, it's over. Not even the most hardcore fan of the 360 or PS3 can argue about a sales turnaround at this point to overtake the Wii.
Well didn't we know that the PS3 and 360 are catering to a niche market which buys lots of software, and aren't expanding their fanbase? I guess the PS3 could have done better, but nearly everyone who wants a 360 already has one in the shop and one in the junkyard.

But Gamepost said GTAIV would affect Iron Man (the movie) sales and yet Iron Man is doing pretty good in the Box Office. So therefore I conclude GTAIV equals failure.

I have 2 remotes (hey just thought of something), 2 nunchucks and 2 classic controllers and that is all I can afford, so count your blessings people.
Damn now I am back to hating Nintendo again, stupid remote. You know how many arguments I had with my cousins over calling the controllers "remote" Then along comes the Wii and guess what the controller *IS* a remote.

If we weren't deep in debt due to dad's medical bills and other *%^# we would have a new computer. I am not worried about it though, I have a good computer and mom mostly uses hers for work and myspace, both of which it does the job. I just was curious like I said because of the tv/internet situation. Thanks for the info though I sure do appreciate the help, google sucks when it comes to looking for straight forward answers.

NO, get back to confessing your faults.
Ok truth is I hate Star Trek, mostly cuz it isnt' Star Wars, I only watched TNG because it was the only channel we got and I had to wait till my sisters went to bed to get the TV and that was all there was to watch.
Enterprise I only watched a few episodes but they were all pretty good.
Let's see what else can I confess? I voted for Bush twice oops political... I really liked To Kill A Mockingbird, there got that off my chest.

« on: May 15, 2008, 09:09:11 PM »
Ok this is a dumb question but here goes, lets say you have a slow computer, say 560 Hgz would putting a video card in it speed things up or slow things down?
My first guess would be since the video card is handling all the display properties and such that would take a load off of the slow processor, then I though would it or would the processor have to handle running the video card? I mostly ask because my moms pc, very old I know but it's all she has, is like this and I wanted to add a video card to it, for 1 to try and speed it up even a little bit, and for 2, well we got rid of our cable and she wants to hook her computer into the tv to watch her favorite shows that way over the internet, but her motherboard doesn't have a slot (AGP?) for the video card and I heard PCI cards are not very good, not to mention old and likely hard to find.
Sorry for all the questions, this video card stuff just doesn't make any sense to me.
