    Wasting Money On Video Game Violence Research

    Having the CDC do research into videogame/gun violence is akin to having Guns and Ammo magazine do a treatise on heart health. This will be one more thing the .gov will want to use to try to restrict rights for us Americans.

    CHeck to make sure the IP is correct, and also the netmask. Otherwise, not sure what to tell ya. It should work just fine.. Who is your cable provider?

    XP cable modem woes

    Has to be your config, as I am on cable, using XP Pro, and an AMD processor.. You have the firewall turned on? Good Nic? Good cat-5 cable? You have the IP set as static or dynamic? If dynamic, a DHCP server running (& working?)

    Who else thinks this is lame (MSI case contest)

    I would be pissed. Definately unfair. Heck, if they let that stand, then anyone can just load up a 3D program and make a case. Hope that guy gets disqualified. Good luck QTip, your stuff is awesome and should have been up in the winners circle for certain.

    Expensive software for cheap

    Yes, this is definately pirated software. A friend of mine was taken in by one of these scams, and lost out on over $100... He got a CD with a printed top, and a silver burned side to make it look more like a real disc. The serial # was the fckgw key. IMO, people that do this kind of crap...

    So do i reinstall XP?

    Besides, if you do a fresh install of everything, and own a copy of Ghost, you can install what SW you really need to have things work, (IE. Not games) then make a ghost image, dump that to DVD (If you can) then use that next time you need to re-install. (Virus, HD death, etc.) So start...

    Security Screws...Do you think they work???

    Just get an old case, beaten up a bit preferably. The compaq case will work, or better yet, a packard bell (ph33r!) then put a case badge on it that says "Pentium II 400, ph33r the POWER!" and a TNT (NOT 2) case badge on it. And paint is rust colored, and something really garish. (Make sure...
