  1. It's 7:30 A.M and I should not be awake. But that's life for ya, merry Christmas all! Hope you all find your days as enjoyable as they should be.
  2. Ink http://www.hulu.com/watch/116313/ink http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1071804/ This movie was great, and was the perfect fit for the mood I had today in the morning. The effects were beautiful, the art style was amazing, the music had a perfect fit that helped create this modern-fantasy vibe that I haven't felt in a while. The plot was not original, but the execution was (A good majority of the movie felt like watching Bleach in it's early form, which really doesn't matter since it was made for western audiences). If you get the chance to download the torrent (the film makers uploaded their own on public trackers) do so because the quality in Hulu sucks balls. Don't read any plot details on it, it's hard to talk about the film without spoiling half of it.
  3. Pretty interesting read, I was never really a fan of the Duke, but it was a game that deserved to be on the shelves. O well, desires can not only drive us forward but produce our biggest fears. That or it's all a crock of shit and they planned to live off the money all a long.
  4. Agozer needs to beat this game nao. Yea dude, the game was mad fun. The ending was a little Indigo Prophecy for me however, and I didn't once go past an area without killing most of the guards on the way to the checkpoint. The first game in the series had parts where I would cry for solutions (pre-internet), this one, I didn't really have to talk about it with my friends in order to get anything done just do them.
  5. Yea I did a little reading, it's been broken but nobody has released anything into the public.
  6. Anybody got any tips on how to enable homebrew and run self installed games? Reading up on it now.
  7. Valve complete pack - Everything from valve (EVERYTHING) is $75.00 in total at the moment. That's, CS (all versions), Half Life (both games, all episodes, some old school mods), Portal, Team Fortress (both), Left 4 Dead (both), and Day of Defeat. Considering that the retail price of L4D1+2 is more than this I say it's pretty much worth it. They have some other packages too (Eidos is selling a pack for $50.00, Deus Ex, Hitman, and Batman all in it), and single games as well (Braid is $2.99). Just go to the store and eat your heart out ! They're also doing daily deals as well. Mirror's Edge is $5.00 today and GTAIV is $7.49, Stalker is $2.00! Every day (starting thursday, today's deal is running until then) after until the third of January Steam is going to be changing their daily. Happy gifting!
  8. Thanks Cindr, I swapped to 533. The computer prompted to shut down 10 minutes after it's first XP boot. I'm on my second XP boot, swapped it back to 400. I'm watching AMD OverDrive (No I don't plan to overclock on standard cooling), but the temp is 46-49 C on idle. That shit is hot in my book, so I'm freaking out. Is this normal for this processor? Or should I invest in more cooling gear? Or is it fixable by simple tweaking? Did I mention that my PC now sounds like an airplane in constant lift off? Update: Did a Stability test, in under a minute the temp rose to 56-58, then I went all pussy mode and cut it off so it could go back to 46-49.
  9. Thanks for the advice Shiba, for now I'll just stick to the paste AMD supplied with by default however, I'm starting to run short on spending $$$. I got the Bio's upgrade today. Applied it and it booted it up just fine without a hitch ! Now the configuration part, I've never fooled with a Bio's before, and I'm scared I'll over burn some shit because of that. Already however I feel that I'm spotting problems, the ram I purchased was DDR2 1066. In the menu I spot both sticks running at 400 Mhz under something titled "Memory CLK", my intuition says that this is a problem, I am however unsure. I tried messing around with the settings and ran into JumperFree Configuration. In it I can change Memory Clock Mode, but it'll only go as high as 533 MHz. Then there are a ton of other options that make me feel like I just my first vagina ever. If anybody here is willing to walk me through some of these options, my IM's are posted in the bottom. If you guys have a link with the basics to all this alien language with a walkthrough, it would be appreciated as well. Thank you guys so much , it's been awesome doing this, I want to be able to do it again and again . Skype - drake00991 Msn - MegamanX44303@hotmail.com Aim - Lucandrake
  10. Local Tigerdirect store. I asked a dude over there to look over all the parts before anything, he said I was good. O well, what game shall I play on my PS3 till then o.o ? Edit: Thanks for all the help, it was much appreciated.
  11. Thanks for the PSU info, I would've flickered with that till the day I die if you hadn't told me. O that's what I forgot to mention. I tried both sticks of RAM seperately earlier. Same results as well. I called Asus (They pronounce it Asoos not Asas? Wtf?). Anyways, the tech lady (again wtf? a Tech LADY?) told me that the current BIO's version of the Mobo wouldn't support my processor. So they sent out a new Bio's chip with the upgraded version that would allow me to run with the processor. Now all I want to do is take out this processor, put it on that mobo, upgrade the bio's manually, and then put everything back to together. Except I don't have cooling gel, and I'm pushing my luck without any proper grounding equipment, I'm just going to sit tight and hopefully that BIO's upgrade is really all my machine needs. My new keyboard rocks btw .
  12. Specs Mobo: Asus M3A78 Vid Card: Visiontek Radeon HD 4650 Processor: AMD Phenom II X4 955 PSU: ULTRA Lsp 750 Pro RAM: OCZ Fatality High Performance DDR2 Memory (2X2 1066) HD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 250 GB 3.0 Sata PSU Link - http://www.ultraproducts.com/applications/...7&CatId=106 What happens on boot Note* The hard drive atm isn't connected, I was told to worry about that last. Shouldn't I be able to get into BIOS without one anyways? The LED Mobo light turns green as soon as I hook up the power cord. On boot there are no beeps. All the fans (PSU, CPU, and Vid Card) turn on without a problem. I hook up the monitor cable, my monitor auto-detects an analog connection but then instantly goes into sleep mode. I tried to hook up a USB keyboard to it, to see if I could spam the F1-F12 buttons trying to get a reaction, the NUM-LOCK lights won't turn on and the buttons don't do anything. That's as far as I get in terms of visual action. For the beeps I disconnected all the RAM earlier to hear how the mobo error beeps, and the thing sounded off like a gun giving me 1 Long and 2 short beeps indicating faulty or missing ram. I hooked it back up, and the error code went away. The PSU also has 2 different volt settings, both seem to work with the PC (both settings show the same results so far). I tried the vid card on this PC as well, it works just fine. The last thing I haven't "completely" tested was the RAM, which I can't, although I'm afraid that this may have something to do with it since the manual said that 1 1066 is supported per channel. But I'm running 2X2 sticks, one for each channel (A1, B1, A2 and B2 are empty) so now I don't think that's the problem after thinking it over.
  13. There isn't a onboard video, which is starting to worry me lol.
  14. I've swapped video cards. I've replugged everything at least 10 times. I've disconnected the HD, the DVD drive, and left only 1 stick of ram in the mobo. When it boots, I hear a beep (I'm guessing that's the RAM), and all the fans are running (The processor, the PSU, the Vid card). I don't get any image on my monitor (and I've tried all 3 different connections on the vid card, VGA, HDMI, and DVI). I also hooked up a keyboard and don't see Numlock or lights like that go off. Nor anything when I press all the F buttons hoping the BIO's menu magically appears. Anybody got any more ideas? Edit: Just reset the CMOS. Still blank. I love this .
  15. Edit: There is no on board video, that was the fucking COM port that I confused. Anyways, I swapped video cards, and still nothing, any ideas on what I should try next?
  16. I know how to install an OS. I've never touched or played with Bios though I was told that it should be done automatic. Yes these are all new parts as well, except for one DVD drive which really isn't that big a deal imo. O and the onboard video card has a female output, I want to shoot the mobo so bad for that.
  17. The processor fan is running but at a extremely low speed. Now I'm worried that I cook the thing because I smell the freaking gel from the case. That and the vid card ain't working, when I boot nothing shows on the screen. Help o.o D:.
  18. Going to hook up the power cord in 5 minutes, if I come back and double post then you'll know I'm in deep shit.
  19. There is a 1emu steam group? Whats the name for it?
  20. http://www.kongregate.com/games/2DArray/th...mpany-of-myself Fun flash game Running through Infamous atm. It's alright, some of the missions feel like a chore and even though I'm trying to complete the game with everything evil though one of the main quests just forced me to be good. Moral choices, really bad gimmick in this game. Also I got Borderlands, anybody want to run through that multiplayer style I'm ready (tbh though, I haven't touched it since I bought it).
  21. Sigma 1 has been awesome for me so far. Though I miss the Nes original, that game didn't force you to learn combos .
  22. My Steam = Lucandrake Anybody that wishes to play LFD1 or 2 is welcome . If we get enough 1emu players we should beat a campaign and such. Anybody down?
