    GTX 295 Artifacts!

    I'm having the SAME problems (down to my L4D occasionally corrupting in that very same manner) with my MSI GTX 260 OC - and I know what you're thinking, but I've even tried it at stock speed. My voltmeter shows my power supply handling the load fine, and my temps are also ok. I don't know WTF is...

    Calculator for College

    If you're allowed to use it, get a TI-89. There is absolutely no reason to not get a TI-89 if it is permitted in your course(s). You will thank me later ;)

    Older Passat?

    Thanks for the informative post, you certainly made a lot of good points. I'm not quite as interested in the car now due to the reasons you brought up; but, I did ask him about past problems and maintenance, and this is what he said:

    Older Passat?

    Cliffs: 1993 Volkswagen Passat GLX Sedan 2.8L 6 cyl, 5 speed, new tires, newish battery... but 189k miles and a heater in need of repair Asking price is $1400. The 5 speed and the 6 cyl are attractive to me, but I'm concerned about the reliability. Exterior looks good; haven't seen...

    Why don't you get a squat rack, bench, and a 300lbs Olympic bar and plate set instead?

    Just watched American Beauty on TV

    I'm sure it was too cut up to be as good as it is unedited. Go find an original copy.

    Help - I backed up my stuff to an NTFS partition and formatted

    Ugh, I don't have a security tab, maybe because it's an entire drive, not just a folder? :(( I tried fooling around in Administrator Tools\Computer Management but I couldn't really find anything. Close but I'm only 90% :(

    Help - I backed up my stuff to an NTFS partition and formatted

    Cliffs: Backed up a ton of stuff to a seperate hard drive that's one giant NTFS partition. (Was on Win2k) It was set up to deny everyone except the Administrator account any kind of access at all. I'm an idiot and forgot to disable that when I formatted. Now I'm on XP, and I get access...

    ???????????????????????????????????????????

    Yeah, I immediately thought double angle formula, but at this point, I'm lazy, and just chalked it up to L'Hopital's rule. Combination of both I guess

    I think she just used L'Hopital's rule a few more times, it was staring me in the face the whole time
