And I have figured it out... This is really frustrating. Turns out that motherboard had an extra setting for the hard disk boot priority, and it was detecting my Promise ATA controller as SCSI so it automatically gave it the first priority. And it's either an algorithm I don't understand, or a...

Ok. This is going to sound really weird. But. As long as the WinXP CD is in the drive, it's booting up fine, after offering me to boot from the CD by pressing any key, which I don't do. If I take the CD out of the drive, it does not find the boot sector. I'm really tired of this...

yes, i've tried fixmbr, replacing the cable and running the drive alone. I don't see how can this thing possibly be a virus if I've rearranged the partitions with fdisk and formatted the drive before doing a clean WinXP install. Everything is running at stock speeds and even lower. The only...

Hi. It seems that each time I reboot my machine now I have 50/50 chances of loosing my boot sector. Have to fix it with the XP's repair console, "fixboot" command. What I have now is A64 3200 (the 2.2GHz 512K version) on a MSI Neo Platinum running XP Pro. The hard drive is fresh out of the...

Seriously, you guys, if you decide to get a pet, don't just give it away. Better yet, think before you get it, to make sure that under no circumstances the pet is going to end up in someone else's house. If nothing else, it's like a great stress to them. I have owned two dogs in my lifetime...

Well. I'll tell you what... If your friend returned the dog because it pooped too much - then the dog ended up way better than it would have if it stayed with an owner that just didn't care.

Hi. Looking for a job, as most of the people here are;) Have a Master's degree in information systems, a lot of hardware, network, database experience. Some managerial experience also. I am not much of a programmer (SQL, COBOL, very little C or Perl), but can do just about anything else that...

All of the universities I went through were not requiring TOEFL for anyone that has an american diploma, so I would talk to the people in admissions;)

Dude you HAVE to use aftershave if you don't want scars or infections on your face... Especially if you live on the south where it's hot and wet, a lot of nasty stuff can get in the little cuts you have after shaving. And you know you have the microcuts if the aftershave stings - you simply...

Old Spice works for me. Actually my wife picks that kind of stuff for me. After all, I wanna smell good for her;)

I think they sell it without any MS software... At least that's what I would be doing - I mean why bother increasing the cost by a couple of hundred bucks, or subjecting yourself to MS lawsuit if you can just say that you sell it w/o any software that requires licensing, and it would look just...

You hiring, dude?;)

The best vodka would be ukrainian pepper vodka, with little red peppers inside the bottle. You see one in States, you let me know where, ok?;)

Actually, you know what? I would gladly pay taxes if I had 1 billion dollars;)

Oh yea, I like good dreams also;)
