    Building a low-power home server

    If it's just to store files and nothing else then why not get a network HDD? It would consume must less power than a computer so you could leave it on 24/7 (if you wanted too) and be much easier to maintain, as well as being a whole lot cheaper. Here's an example of one...

    Fallout 3 Bad Karma

    Yeah, they don't really sound disturebed at all. When I saw 'big guy sounds like a psychopath' I thought it'd be a fat man with an overgrown beard, wearing a warn out old T-shirt and having some speech impediment but it's nothing like that. If anything they're propbably trying to promit it to...

    USB bandwidth

    Unless you're still using USB V1.0/1.1 and have a 12mbps+ connection it'll be very unlikey there isn't enough bandwidth. It most likely just the modem software in any case. In all seriousness you'd be better of investing in a router and using ethernet. They're very cheap now and far more...

    Stalker clear sky review from PC Gamer UK, it's not very good

    I didn't see that opening at first, I went through the gate where the Stalkers were killed by mutants. I was actually having trouble reaching the area where the tank was but later found the tunnel in a heavily radiated area. Guess I missed it at first. :|

    Stalker clear sky review from PC Gamer UK, it's not very good

    Does anyone known what the hell you're suppose to do once you're in the Red Forest? I have the task of finding the Space Anomaly but it's in a part of the Forest I can't even reach. The whole area is cordoned by a perimetre mound you can't climb and there's no passable way in. The only way in is...

    the Thing develops prequel-itis

    The film does start with a Alien ship that seems to have lost control and crashes on earth into the Arctic. If I can remember correctly, it then stays there berried beneath the snow for 100s or 1000s of years until some Norweigens discover something under the there. They then blow it out with...

    Stalker clear sky review from PC Gamer UK, it's not very good

    ffs, now the game is constantly crashing for me. I can't go beyond the objective "Find Fang's PDA" without it crashing from me entering the Garbage. I think the Bandits missions screwed it up as Yoga just stands in his 'talking on the radio' pose and I can't talk to him. Maybe killing the shit...

    USB TV Sticks

    I've used one before although I never got it to work, but it might've been a faulty one anyway. Is this going to be for a Laptop or Desktop? If for a desktop then I'd highly recommend getting a PCI or PCI-E based one if you can as it will be better. If not then just go with a USB one. As long as...

    Stalker clear sky review from PC Gamer UK, it's not very good

    Seriously, this game is bugged to shit. I'd advise anyone wanting to get it soon to hold of for a little while unless you don't mind starting again everytime a new patch is released. There are still some game breaking bugs in the game and some say its more buggy that SoC was. Hopefully, most of...

    Stalker clear sky review from PC Gamer UK, it's not very good

    I've just played the game for an hour or so I and it's very good but still have some pet peaves with it that were present in the orginal. I just went and did a mission to deliver some info and it crashed. I wouldn't mind the crashes if I could load a recent save point but half the time I have to...

    HDMI cable

    Is the signal that travels over the cable completely digital? The reason I ask is because if that's the case then buying the cheapest HDMI cable would technically do as the quality of the cable wouldn't affect the quality of the signal travelling over (like with analog) unless it caused the loss...

    Learning Web Design/Development

    Designing a webpage has never been one of my strong points. I just build it up and change things as I go along. I never stick to a certain design because it properly won't work out and I'll usually end up changing it all anyway. I made a MySQL database recently using PHP to send data. It...

    Will a laptop with X3100 run the HL2 series well?

    You'd be better spending some more and getting either a ATi or NVIDIA based IGP. The trouble is that you want a smaller form laptop and I don't think you're gonna find one with a decent enough IGP as that will be compromised to reduce the size. The Intel ones aren't very good for 3D games such...

    XP Compiler Query

    This might be of use to you. Used this at Uni but it's been many years so I'm not sure if it's what you would need. http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html

    HelpLife2.net: any electricians in the house?

    Halogen lights are meant to run hot. It's possible that the guy doing the job didn't properly remove anything that could insulate the light if it's only specific fixtures where the bulbs blow frequently. Heat could be building up and thus shorten the bulbs operating life. You could look yourself...

    AMD vs Intel processors

    There's nothing wrong with the current AMD CPUs available other than they aren't competitive with the Core2. Clock for clock the Phenom is pretty much evenually matched with the Core2 and can even surpass it when overclocked properly (so I've heard). They will be releasing a 45nm revision near...
