selfcontr0l

check your control panel -> audio devices and make sure that recording device is set to your (correct) sound card and that "use only preferred devices" is chosen (or try unselected too) and restart steam b/w changes just to make sure /just a thought

which one will lag the server less?

maybe it's dad? you mean d4d right?

really inspect the vid card fan housing and make sure air flow is good-- if your heat level is high at idle (no gaming) then maybe you could unmount the heatsink and re-apply some thermal grease (arctic silver, etc) and reattach the heatsink this may or may not be possible on your card. but worth a shot.

tracid, if you haven't seen the original movie, you absolutely need to. just remember there was no cgi/computer aided animation... but the story is amazing and the soundtrack was very memorable.....also the cast of voices was amazing too...leonard nimoy, casey cason, orson wells, eric idle even -- but that is something that is generational i suppose...i got into transformers at a very influential part of my life, so it means more to me to reflect back on those things as far as the original series, i wouldn't say go run out and see it right away, but if you want to know the background of the transformers, you should see them...it's 4 seasons worth (but the 4th was a short season)

me too!....wait...what's dxlvl 7'd?

oh btw Mozz, thx for posting...and i am most happy to be having the admin privs now /by the power of greyskull........i have the power?

boilersax, you should put a "if this post was helpful, donate $1" paypal link on your sig

It's the best when you have what seems like an eternity to realize what's happening and you know you can do nothing about it, so you just stand there and even have enuf time to type LOL *before* you die

Candy Sherriff? is that her stage name?

for those who don't get it. it's the TILES in the background that are the OBVIOUS part..... the TILES are stretched and skewed cuz they pulled in her tummy a bit, etc.. get it?

nope, selfcontr0l.gc my normal handle steam id...it's that really low number...like 0:5625 or something...i'm at work I don't remember what it is... i'll get it in the a.m.

I dunno what happened, but Saturday evening sometime I got kicked/banned from Recrud by (I think) MrDuke. I can't think of anything that preceded it, so if I could get an explanation it would be much appreciated. If I could get unbanned it would be even more appreciated I hope this was an accident.

For the past couple of months when I load the home page, it looks like this: screenshot

You're clicking on the wrong "X". From what I can tell, the web page is opening a new "tab", not a new "window"...so you need to close the "tab" This is called tabbed browsing. Of course there are many ways to customize this activity. I'd recommened "Tab Mix Plus" extension to help you choose how to handle opening of popups/windows/tabs/links/etc Search for it in google, install the extension and then restart firefox. Go to Tools->Options and click on the "Tab Mix Plus" tab. Go thru all the options and customize to your heart's content. adamdylla+gmail.com

lag spike on new west coast server (just fyi) most of the time it's good but someone said to take ss's of the spikes so that's what i did http://screenshot.xfire.com/screenshots/selfcontr0l

http://www.xfire.com/screenshots/selfcontr...84641f72dc6.png UH OH!!! new westcoast server

i agree with what cujo says... however you can always keep your computer together as it is (as a second computer) when you "upgrade" you almost always buy new everything anyway right? and end up having an entire other computer for network storage (or for friends who come over) etc
