And countless hours wasted talking on Ventrilo while playing that ridiculous drawing game.
Almost a decade ago.

Thanks a lot! Through my hours of Googling only once did F8 come into a thread but I didn't understand the context. Annoying, but it'll work for now until I can afford a new card.
Edit: Now I have a different problem. Code 12: This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. If...
Finally upgraded to Win7 the other day and I must say it has been a complete and total nightmare so far. I'm running Home Premium 64-bit and I've got a Linksys WMP54GS v1.1 wireless card. For the first day and a half the internet worked fine, then after a reboot suddenly the card would no longer...
Did anyone play the game Chart Wars in any of its incarnations? I remember it was a fairly fun game to play despite its many flaws and was wondering if there was anything out there similar to it these days. A Google search just brought up a failed attempt at creating a new one a little over a...
Mods: Not sure if this belongs in OS or Software, so feel free to move if necessary.
This problem just started popping up within the past 2 months. For some reason my MP3s no longer open with iTunes. For a while they opened with this other program that I used for transcribing files, but I...
Out of the blue. System is approximately a year and a half old. I ran Memtest86 and it found nothing wrong. I might try downloading Mobo Monitor and see if I can get some accurate temp readings from that. Any other suggestions?
Bought a new PSU today, even jumped from 430w to 500w and went back to the Antec brand. I noticed on my old PSU that one of the molex connectors seemed like it had been shorted out since there was black around one of the pins. I thought all would be fine, wanted to test it out so I went in the...
I was fine for another couple weeks and now it's acting up again. I think it's time to do things the right way instead of the cheap way unfortunately. When you say a PSU checker, do you mean something that I wouldn't have to remove the connectors for? Cuz for $20 that'd be awesome.
Bumping this since I was fine for the past month and a half then two days ago this problem jumped up again.
The only additional information I can provide is that the majority of the time it shuts down while using just iTunes/Firefox, but it has powered down a couple times while playing a game...
It's funny this was posted today. I had to post in one of the help forums and thought about how long it'd been since I really participated in OT. Looked it up and since Jan 09, I made 108 posts. Crazy to think how much time I spent on the site and on here 5 years ago.
I agree with TallBill...
I'd be surprised if it was overheating. I rarely find myself at CPU 100%; mostly when SETI is running at full throttle. Each time it has shut off little to no programs/operations have been running. SETI would only be running off of the GPU. This morning all I had running was Firefox and...
I've noticed within just the past couple days that my computer randomly powers off. I've never been in the room to see it happen (just now I was taking out the garbage and came back to find it off). It's done this 3 times in the past 20ish hours. I'm only inferring here, but I'm fairly sure that...
