Try th test again in MMOs such as EQ2 in the latest zones or Age of Conan. You'll find faster load times and less micro-stuttering from texture loading. Other games such as SWTOR and World of Tanks do not benefit at all.
Even the Wii U "sold out" on pre-orders. It's all marketing. More than likely they had 50 to 100 available total. I remember reading that on the Xbox 360 most of the stores received anywhere from 3-5 total so of course they were "sold out".
And yet 99% of that 85% would vote based on those very ads. They are extremely effective and the reason people really hate this is that it exposes their ignorance of an issue.
Fail argument is fail.
First off they were not the ones doing the file sharing, the users were. Secondly, under their EULA they made it clear that illegal content would be removed. Thirdly, they offered a DMCA tool for removing content that the IP providers didn't bother to use properly...
As a reminder folks:
The way search results are presented could possibly be patented. It's a method. If Bing is copying Google exactly (which they are on some results) they could be violating. The only question is how it is done.
If I wanted results from Google I'd go to Google. The idea behind Bing was that it was going to be a more human and more relevant search engine. You seem to be OK with the idea that they are copying the searches exactly.
As for increased traffic... doubt it. Bing is very tiny...
There is copying and then there is abusing. Microsoft is abusing it. They are not simply inserting searches in. They are literally copying them by matching even the page ranking. My hunch that this is more a case of Microsoft sending the search query to Google and displaying it to their...
What's equally sad is that under Ubuntu it has zero problems. You would think with a modern sound card on a modern operating system such issues would not be around.
Still no go. I, like I said, had already attempting the Add/Remove steps plus I even (on another boot) attempted to uninstall driver (with delete drivers) under Device Manager.
So not sure what else can be done now.
I placed a Creative X-fi into the computer and it's popping up with a Code 10 error. I tried updating drivers through Device Manager and it says it has latest driver. I went to Creative site and downloaded latest driver from them but it refuses to install and says latest driver. I tried Safe...
Active Partition Recovery worked. I had to delete the damaged partition and run a Super Scan then pressed Recover. Worked perfectly.
The other programs I'll be noting for further use. Thank you both.
Definitely not going to work. I need something to recover the file table in place. This is, as I said, the storage drive. There is simply no room on the boot drive to "copy" everything over. That defeats the purpose for me and puts me back at square one. My boot drive is a mere 74g raptor...
I'll check into it. Right now the drive is showing as a RAW system. Under hex the data is still there. I'd prefer of course just to restore the file table. Can't seem to do it under Linux. I'm assuming due to the changes in NTFS with Vista.
Ok, here's the deal. Second time in two months (two different computers) a drive has become "lost" to a Vista 64 installation. For some reason Vista would freeze on shutdown and still be stuck hours later. You reboot and boom! No drive. Never had this problem under Sabayon nor under XP...
