I find I like Win 7 for some things, streaming and newer sims, but revert back to XP Pro for all my favorite sims. They're older like me. One thing I've definitely given up is 32 bit operating...

"Defiance" is pretty good for a SciFi channel movie. One I recommend is "Borealis". It was on Canadian TV but was canceled after the pilot. A good scifi movie is "Cargo." It's from England, I...

David, sent you a PM and an email.

Configuring is easy with Matrox TripleHead2Go compared to AMD Eyefinity or nVidia Surround. I consider Eyefinity's PDF manual too obtuse. I didn't like Surround's manual much better, especially...

What I did find interesting, David, was the monsoon season when I was SEA during the tail end of the war. I live up in the mountains and we have real down pours during a thunder storm, bit it don't...

In retrospect, Pat, yeah, interesting. At the time, not so interesting. Like sitting on the wing of a FB-111 at Fairbanks, Alaska, in January when the temperature is 38 degrees below zero, while...

I finally figured it out. After unzipping the download, drop the folders into BoB CFS3 and the files will be added or overwrite when necessary. Dumb me. That's what the instructions imply. Jets in...

The BoB addon came from here.

The Boston A20 was part of an update from the same site. Why the Boston didn't didn't load up even after being...

As Charlie Brown says, "AAArrrgghh!!!." It's been a long time since I've fiddled with files in CFS3. I'm trying out the freeware BoB in CFS3 and it works fine until I try to add the update Boston...

Dave is absolutely right...at least for the earlier models. They climbed with a slight nose down attitude. I was an aircraft mechanic in SAC for years and watched a few hundred or maybe more take...

Good on you, Danny. Us old dogs CAN learn new tricks. I started building my own PCs about 10 years ago. What version of Windows are you running? I see you only have 8 GB of memory. A few years...

Anybody knowing anything about CombatAce being down? I noticed it yesterday.

I grew up reading all the science fiction I could lay my hands on back in the forties. And I, too, am enjoying Caprica immensely. There is another one I watch on BBC America called Survivors. It's an...

Boy, this thread has really took off after I mentioned the shock collar as an alternative. I've only used it a couple of times years ago for a couple of dogs we had that would bark incessantly. And...

There's also another type of bark collar that carries a battery pack and two little electrodes that shocks the dog on the neck under the collar whenever the animal barks. After a couple or so times...

Talk about running slim and trim, Maddog. :ernae:

Sandar,
if you by chance bought a Western Digital hard drive, you can on their website download free Acronis that will make an ghost image of your newly installed Windows and other software. Save...

I got 'em all, Allen. I'm not on auto updates. I use custum about once a week. Just checked now this morning and there was nothing available. I think your Windows installtion is bloated with...

Allen, I updated Windows and only got 6 Security updates and 1 Hardware. For all practical purposes, my Windows XP folder is the same size. Just a tad over 4GBs. If you subtracted your My Documents...

Allen, my xpsp3 is 4GBs.

The most aggravating occasion with SP2 I had was when I reinstalled XPSP2 after a hard drive failure which was rectifyied with a new SATA hard drive. I couldn't complete the install becuz SP2 had no...

Google "free serif" and you'll find some from a quality English company. Programs a couple of years out of date but what the H*LL, FS9 is out of date, too, but we still fly it.

Sometimes a fresh install of Windows is the lesser of two pains. Been there, done it, I don't remember how many times. Sandar, is your XP disk SP3, also? If not, it might be worth the effort to learn...

Sandar, I've got 7 in a drawer but haven't installed it yet. Probably be on my next computer build. Anyway, when trying to delete a big folder, you often get a failure because the folder is in use...

Sandar, don't use multiple partitions on a hard drive only multiple hard drives, which has saved my a$$ a few times. Anyway, you can delete a partition within Windows.

Within Windows XP:
