Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening: Threshold of a Dream - History
prophetik music replied to Aetherius's topic in Projects
willrock mentioned wanting last battle, but i haven't heard from him yet. as with any other track on the project, you're welcome to submit a wip. whoever submits a wip first that doesn't suck and fits into the genre guidelines gets the track. don't be afraid to look at the other three 'extra' tracks listed under still available, too. -
it would help if you'd post a sample of just what kind of crumpled shit you sound like.

=) not rude as much as uncouth. double-posting implies that you don't know enough about quoting to just write in the

the gfx card is fine. they're made to run up to 100C with no problem. my 7300LE (for extra monitors) in my machine idles at 90C because it's fanless. don't mind that it only shows for a few fans. it should show for every fan that's both hooked up through the motherboard (only fans connected through the mobo show up, so nothing for the psu or hardwired fans) and has a functioning third channel on the plug to monitor speed. who cares how fast they're running? as long as they're pushing air, they're doing their job. i didn't see anything there that looked too crazy. the v-core looked a touch low, but i don't remember enough numbers about my old e8400 to compare, and i remember that it ran low when i had it. so i call this a dead end =(

windows might not have anything to do with it, but the HDD itself might. i'm still leaning towards motherboard, but psu could be a possibility as well. the problem with stuff like this is that you basically just replace stuff until the problem goes away unless you've got an expensive set of diagnostic tools. what are your system temps? get hwmonitor, a free diagnostic program by the makers of cpu-z, and get us a screen.

The Newbie Introduction Thread: Come on in and say hello!
prophetik music replied to Mahaboo's topic in General Discussion
that's a setting in your control panel settings, fyi - specifically, user cp -> edit options -> scroll about halfway down to thread display mode and set it to linear - oldest first. -
double-posting's considered rude. just edit your previous post =) it's easier and saves the extra space of having your sig twice. if you wrote it, it's an original regardless of what it's for. if you didn't write it, it's a remix, regardless of what you do with it.

psu would just restart the computer or freeze it hard-core, not allow it to continue displaying data that's changing (like the blinking memtest icon) or really output anything - like the audio. that makes me think that it's a mobo issue. if the hdd was dumping bits along the way, too, that might cause an issue similar to this as well. plus, if a mobo got stuck on something, it'd just hang on that audio sample that was playing and continue hammering it out. bad power is only an issue if your psu doesn't have active pfc, which most corsair models do have. if your psu doesn't have a switch on the back to switch between 110 and 220v for power intake, it's got active pfc, and as a result can take anything from 100-240 from the wall without any issue. i had a similar problem with an old pos computer with passive pfc at my wife's house in the basement, which is over a hundred years old and has poor wiring.

it's a bot, dumbass.

yeah, it'll probably get moved to post your originals.

that should be way more than enough power for that system, since the draw should only be around 250-275 watts (you could have gotten by with a 450w that was 80-plus certified ). there aren't many ways to check if it's a motherboard or not. do you have a spare hard drive sitting around? try disconnecting your HDDs on your system - all of them, if you have more than one - and installing some operating system onto it. see if it causes freakout errors still. that'll narrow it down to your hdd or motherboard. if your hdd is failing, dropping enough bits between the head and the system itself would cause weird freezes. if that's not it, try another motherboard.

hah, are you still using the houghton laptop? amazes me how much you can squeeze out of those things when needed. i used to use mine as an htpc, and it could (almost) play hd video back without dropping scenes. -
Kaleidoscope (XB360) Released - OC ReMix Publishes Free OST!
prophetik music replied to djpretzel's topic in Announcements
yeah, torrent clients are completely legit. get uTorrent, it's easily one of the best. it's just like an OS - if you never put anything bad in it, nothing bad comes out. you'll totally be fine =) -
how big's your power supply? likely not anything to do with that, but it's worth checking. freezes generally related to a crappy motherboard or bad ram. you have crappy ram, but if memtest is working fine then it's not that. you didn't list a great motherboard - it's usually stable, but nor much more than that. the light thing makes me think your psu is just defective, incorrectly interpreting the power-on signal (the thing it uses to activate a UPS if it craps out).

i'm assuming you avoid them because they're usually full of illegal stuff. this one's totally legit, and you can't get in trouble for it =) -

have i ever told you how much i incredibly hate having music play upon loading a web page? i think i'm not alone, too. i checked your website because i figured you must have gone to school at IC if you knew Laura Intravia. i'm a current grad student there (about to graduate, actually), and someone showed me that video a while back. -
go change your pants, kid. don't bitch about project timelines until you're contributing. hylian's got like seven thousand mixes on this project, and you don't see him shooting one-liners around. why would he ruin any part of the project by releasing it early, let alone because of comments by the kid who registered solely to bitch about project timelines?

correction: i DID pick up age of booty. i need to learn how to play it, now, and then i'll be in for some online play.

i really enjoy defense grid: the awakening. i play from time to time - it's not a multiplayer game, but it's definitely got enough game modes to be really fun. i think i'll pick up age of booty.
-
i was under the impression that most of these were permanent - at least, South park and Age of Booty were.
-
most game stores sell the DS Lite for ten dollars more in a used fashion, and i regularly see them on craigslist and ebay for around that price. go that route.

hey, man, no problem. just figure out what you want to ask and someone'll help out, for sure.
