    Dungeon Keeper - Ancient Keeper

    I've heard about this fan-made 20 level campaign for Dungeon Keeper 1 before, but since most fansites are dead and Google can't find it, I'm requesting your help. Does anyone still have the campaign? I've just finished the Deeper Dungeons add-on and I'm aching for more twisted fun. Thanks in...

    Finest piece of Arabic Satire I've seen lately

    Article at Arabnews urging military action against Hungary and Australia. The writer of the article admitted that this is only a joke. Posting this at P&N would be suicidal, since this isn't really about politics and requires an at least partially functional sarcasm meter to comprehend.

    What's a blinking star?

    I looked out of the window and saw a rapidly blinking star. It's been there for a few minutes, the star emits a white light (like the others) but blinks rapidly with a reddish yellow light. Does anyone know what kind of phenomenon I'm witnessing?

    Opera - slow startup and massive memory usage

    A few days ago, Opera began starting up abnormally slowly and consuming about 210 MB memory after startup. It takes a good 30 seconds to start, the memory usage slowly rises and the CPU load is at ~50%. After that, I have no problems at all, memory usage goes back to normal, etc. My second...

    Baldur's Gate 2 Vs. FX5900

    I got an FX5900XT recently, and no matter what I do, BG2 won't run in fullscreen mode without the screen switching to ~320x200 and 4 colors. I can only see the upper left. The latest patch is installed, reinstalling the game didn't help, I've tried the newest drivers as well as some older ones...

    HDTV in Europe?

    HDTV technology amazes me, standard broadcast is far worse, but I live in Continental Europe, so I can't watch any HDTV channels. As far as I know, there is one HDTV channel (digital satellite), but it's encrypted. When do you think HDTV will hit Europe? Does anyone have some information...

    Abit temperature sensors

    Summer is coming and I'm wondering how hot my CPU really is. I have an IS7, I know Abit mainboards show too high temperatures, but how much is the difference between the real temps and the measured ones? My idle temp (with stock intel cooling) is 47C, but at 100% load it reaches 59-61C. I have...

    Mozzarella

    What's mozzarella cheese good for? I just tried it for the first time, it was not spoiled or anything, had almost no taste, tasted somewhat like paper. It isn't supposed to have a strong taste, I know, but why do some people like it then?

    Are Suzuki cars popular in your country?

    How many Suzukis are in your state/country? Are they top-sellers? They are selling very well here, even though people could buy much better cars for the price. A lot of people lease them and pay for 3-5 or more years. They lose their value quickly, the body as durable as plastic, but the...

    How to install Counterstrike and Aftermath (RA1)

    I bought Red Alert and its expansion packs a long time ago, they worked just fine when I still had W98, but now I can't install them. RA can be installed using W95 compatibility mode, but Counterstrike doesn't install a thing even though it says it installed successfully, and Aftermath says I...

    Cannot restart/shutdown

    Strange. I can not restart or shutdown my XP Pro lately. Only reset works, I tried reinstalling (refreshing), but it did nothing. Not even the command "shutdown" works. I didn't install anything relevant the past few days, so I have no idea what causes this. Reinstalling didn't help so my system...

    YAVCDT: Article about cheating in drivers

    MJ12 webpage

    Yes, it's true, they make a living by selling cups and T-shirts. Their forums are by no means crowded. People there feel dazed and confused, they don't know the truth. Could an above-average bunch of ATOTers help the people who feel an urge to see the truth? BTW, they are very trendy.
