Updated my Setup
For the hard drive, you should not go green, you're going to lose a bit of performance just because of that. Go for a normal caviar, and take a hard drive that has 32MB cache, much faster than 16MB cache. Also to Nadril, I thought AMD was better for gaming and Intel better for processing, or is that just in quad cores?

Start-Up
Found your problem (along with other lines, but this one looks like it's the most urgent right now). This missing file O23 - Service: Windows Driver Foundation - User-mode Driver Framework (WudfSvc) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost[Caution: Executable File] (file missing) shouldn't be missing. Maybe a repair with the win xp cd would work.

Can't get past *verifying dmi pool data*...
I resolved that problem on my parent's computer by changing the boot order.

What happend? (See screen shot)
To make sure they are updated, you can go to the Java website and install the latest java. As for the card drivers, you find what card you have (start-run-dxdiag-display) and go to your card manufacturer's website and find the card you have to download the driver. To me, if you don't know where to check, it probably is out of date.

Worst way to die
Why cement? prevent zumbehs. O god that was so funny. Nah, they do sometimes put cement or something similar down to prevent graverobbing and that stuff. Honestly though, when was the last time you've heard of graverobbing, has it even happened since the 1800's? Also because Mayor West is afraid of zombies. Happenned last week. I keep hearing it on the radio over and over.

PvP is alot less safe then you could imagine (DDOS'ing)
Didn't read the full topic, but when that happens, call your ISP, tell them you have been DDOS'd and they will track it and the guy will likely be cut from internet by his ISP.

Cell phone help (Getting a new one)
How much did you pay for your phone though? I know some countries, mainly ones in Europe have you buy out your phone in turn allowing you to have an overall cheaper monthly rate. From my understanding the 2 year contract on american carriers is because it is set up for us to basically pay off the phone in those 2 years adding to our monthly rates. If I am mistaken in anyway feel free to correct me as I'm not 100% on this. I don't know about the Europe one, but I did take a 2 year contract and paid around $30 for the phone.

Just something to be aware of
If it disrupts the chat, report it, mods will know what to do with it. And the best is to report it under offensive language. Mods are allowed to mute them if they do it for more than 10 lines and almost every line.

Cell phone help (Getting a new one)
Wow, that's quite expensive in the US. I pay $31 CAD a month for my Telus cell and I can choose 5 numbers to have unlimited, and my brother pays about the same and has unlimited texting on his Bell/Aliant Cell.

Saving a disc to the hard drive, or making a copy
I don't know if it would work, but you could extract the .iso using imgburn and then use a utility like daemon tools to fake a drive and mount a .iso on it. You'd be playing the game from the hard drive.

Webroot
If your antivirus stops after a couple of minutes, I would advise you to change your antivirus. Preferably for a good antivirus such as Kaspersky (pay), NOD32 (pay) or Avira antivir (free version). Usually though, if it stops, the problem might be deeper.

Your first car wreck.
What did you do to put $2000 in there, that's an awful lot for a month :o .

CD Burner?
If you burn with that program, you will see nothing on the CD with any other OS than windows XP. Be warned.

Google Search is messed up.
Avast does not. It's not really a good antivirus either at the number of false positives you get with it. Ad-Aware and Spybot Search & Destroy are two good antispywares.

Firefox 3.5 - What do you think?
I wouldn't update it right now anyway, I reverted back to Firefox 3 because of crash problems and the such, I would still wait a few weeks.
-
I got a trojan =/
If you were using McAfee, you might still have viruses, you should get a good antivirus like Kaspersky, NOD32 or Avira antivir.

I fear i may have a Keylogger. Check for me.
Bottom of the log is missing, run it as administrator.

Which Laptop is the BEST to you?
I almost bought an Asus. It had the same exact specs as the HP (except for the NVIDA/ATI graphics card) and I think the price. So I picked it on the look and brand name. Asus had a weird [wagon] design on the front and the HP just had a glossy black. And HP is a better brand than Asus. No. Asus is better. HP had a overheating problem for quite a while, although they have changed that. Between my Asus laptop and my friend's HP laptop with greater specs (as in, more RAM and faster processor), my Asus laptop was still faster and I never had to format it while my friend formatted his laptop quite a few times this last year. Oh yeah, my HP has 4 cores apparently. The Asus has/had two. Good luck with your customer service good sir. Why would I need customer service? Lol. And Asus's website is quite easy for me to navigate to find the drivers. But I could say the same thing to you lol. I've had a few encounters with HP Customer support for my desktop, and they don't even know what they're talking about. Once sent a mail asking if there was a BIOS update, since it's not on the website, and the answer I received was not related to BIOS or drivers at all.

Does it matter if that transparent platform is ice? I think about it as one of the worst ways too.
