  1. Most of the ones above and let's not forget REDNECK RAMPAGE (including the cuss pack).

  3. quote:Originally posted by Supreme Cmdr: Thanks. I just checked it out. Apparently when Hypernia did their upgrading and whatever, they forgot to plug the mice back into the servers. And without a mouse, the game won't work. SERVER1 had the mouse on the whole time, but 2-4, didn't. Anyway, I just spoke to them and they are going to reboot the machines of this post. Hopefully they will be back up in a few mins. I will check it again in a bit just to make sure. EDIT: All servers are back up now I'm beating myself on the head cause I should have said something sooner. I've been waiting the whole weekend since I thought you were working on them and figured you'd get annoyed at the question since no one else has mentioned it. It's always the simple things that cause problems isn't it . [OFF TOPIC (just a bit)] BTW: on Thursday I just about had it and re-installed win98se. With the old OS install by RC8 the Multiplayer game was doing what some other's have been sending you issues about. As soon as I would go into the command menus or even just place the mouse on the radar screen (or any hud element) UC would just lock up and it started doing it in the single player too. Needless to say with the re-install, UC now runs better than before without all the crap that was lingering in Win98. I did try out the multiplayer when you posted about wanting to check server 4 issues out on 5/29 and the other servers right before that and it ran without a hitch. The reason why I'm mentioning this is that it proves your point that it's the OS (or whatever the heck they got on their systems) not UC that's the cause. If you've noticed, one of the first questions I ask anyone with problems is how long has the OS been on their system and most of the answers have been "for a while" BINGO. Anyway, the reason why I'm metioning this is for others to read as well and hope they get the point. So if anyone has issues with UC, they need to re-install their OS's before they should even think about posting their problems to you. If they want proof, send them to me and I'll give them the "what for". Oh man, what I would do to get DOS back!! I would even sell my soul to the devil.
  4. I found this quite funny and sad HONG KONG (AP) -- A Chinese anti-smoking activist has brought his unorthodox methods to Hong Kong, snatching cigarettes from unsuspecting locals in an office district, a newspaper reported Sunday.. Funny because I can see a smoker just about to light up and swoosh the cigarette is gone the sad part is that people are willing to believe anything the medical community is willing to hand them. The reason why I say this is because there are so many things that can cause cancer but the first thing a doctor asks you is do you smoke and the first answer out of their mouths is "Ah that's the cause of your illness". Meanwhile, there might be a true cause for the illness lingering in the enviornment but going unoticed and unchecked because cigarettes are being blamed for the entire worlds health woes.
  5. quote:Originally posted by *SMOKE*: Examining the memory dump, the exception error appears to be related to ntoskrnl You seem to be not alone with problems related to NTOSKRNL. Here's an example: the exception ocuured in NTOSKRNL . This one case deals with installing some drivers but if you scroll down someone has posted MS links. There are plenty of other sites too just type in your internet search the exact error you are recieving and I'm sure you will find out more detailed info with your current problem.
  6. quote:Originally posted by Eclipse: If you want to cry about the windows key, I'd like to submit a complaint about that dreadful combination called "alt+tab" it is simply atrocious, I mean nearly every game I play is incompatible with it. I think we should remove it. /me stops off to find a screwdriver to pry off the alt and tab keys and then take a nap. Sleep deprivation can do very weird things to ones cognitive abilities... Same here. I don't remember when the last time I needed to use the ALT-TAB. As for the windows key, thank god I don't suffer from that affliction yet. I'm using an old Tandy 3000 keyboard which is built like a tank, pre-windows and have played so many games on it I can't even count. Have a read GameDev.net. BTW: If any of you hear taps being played one evening, it's me putting my trusty keyboard six feet under because it died.
  7. quote:Originally posted by El Che: Still waiting to see the evidence... no evidence of WMD's = american soldiers' lives lost in vain What a shame that you support this behavior. You did read that article didn't you? "A wild goose chase is when you're looking for something that may not exist," he said. "We're looking for something that does exist, and that is the truth. You know I wasn't sent here to find weapons of mass destruction. I was sent out here to find the truth about Iraqi weapons of mass destruction programs." What do you consider evidence? More than 2 shells?well you may get your wish because if any of those insurgents see that CNN article they will know what they've got now and use it properly. Even one of those shells used the proper way could have killed and infected many thousands of Americans and Iraqis alike. One shell is a weapon of mass destruction and was/is in violation of Saddam's agreement to destroy them. I know nobody likes to eat crow (though I've heard it tastes just like chicken) but you better get plenty of gravy and butter ready cause some of you are going to be eating it for a very long time.
  8. quote:Originally posted by street: 1: That was purely based on: "Me NOT getting older, and EVERYONE ELSE getting younger". 2: ....just as insignificant to me, as the molecular battles are at present. Of no concern to ME personally. 1: I know I just felt like taking it a bit further as a distraction from this Iraq business. 2: Umm, I'd re-think that if I were you. Have you seen the death rate from virus and bacterial infections? I'd reconsider that as not being of no concern to you personally. No one is safe. Damn, nasty little molecular insurgents.
  9. quote:Originally posted by street: I wish that were the case,Lost. Then all we would have to do is sit back and wait, and everyone would start reverting back to their base molecular beginnings. War would END, and this whole issue could disssssolve!! LOL Damn, you have to get me started again . Have you ever seen the molecular world. There's more wars going on there in a day than humans have been involved with in a thousand years or more. The war of survival. In that respect, humans are downright peaceful.
  10. quote:Originally posted by street: quote:Amerika was the title of a TV movie about how the Soviet Union took over the United States (of America). I thought everyone KNEW that!!! Man!, am I getting OLD, or what??? Nah, we're not getting old just everyone else seems to be getting younger .
  11. quote:Originally posted by Wolferz: Interesting find LIS, but it's nothing new. There have been big money Lobbyists operating in every governmental body in the country. Yeah, I've know that since I was about 5 but when you talk to democrats they think other wise "Oh no, the democratic party is not about big buisness or their lobby they are for the people by the people" . I thought it was time to start pointing these things out to some of the youngens on this board who aren't as savy as us older folk and who think that just the republicans are for big buisness. The only difference between the Republican and Democratic party is that at least you know where the Republican's are coming from (as in affilitations and leanings) as for the Democrat's they claim they are for people but they just hide behind that to cover up their real motives.
  12. To those of you who that insist that Bush's reasons to go to war was unfounded and a lie Gas shell findings a concern for Iraq arms inspector. So, ummm, what about those weapons of mass destruction? They don't exist you say. Clearly they are there somewhere. I'm more surprised that CNN ran this story because it favors Bush's stance since the begining of the war.
  13. I'm sure this will be another thread that will garnish alot of heat so I'm putting on my asbestos gloves. Avis Gave Discounts To Lawmakers While Lobbying. Democrats are for the people? Could have fooled me. "This happened in 2002, while several car rental companies pushed for a law making renters' insurance responsible in an accident, instead of the rental companies. The measure passed, but the Lobbying Commission fined Avis $15,000 for not releasing some of its records. The names of which lawmakers got a discount from Avis were not revealed until this week."
  14. quote:Originally posted by Kalshion: I don't want to go to and get a work app and see that I have to select my Ethnic background. Why must I select it? Cause since I'm white I stand little chance of getting a job, yet if i was select black or hispanic I'd get the job in a heartbeat. Common guys, use your heads. Do what I do. I pen in a box and check it [X] American on all my applications. If a good portion of the population did the same, someone is bound to the get the idea.
  15. quote:Originally posted by jamotto: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...me/fifteen_kids Tie this in with the thread "Study: Brain sees others' mistakes as own" in this forum and I see potential problems. Damn she keeps this up and she alone will be responsible for the dwindling food supply on this planet.
  16. quote:Originally posted by Steve Schacher: Could the media have lied to us in their rush to oust President Bush from office? Wouldn't be the first time the media did a gotta have the story first even if it's wrong reporting. When I think of the media, I think of a pack of pigeons feeding. You throw a handful of rice or bread crumbs to them and down they swoop pecking at each other to be first and just gobbling up the food not bothering to even care if the food is poisoned or not.
  17. quote:Originally posted by lodger: Bought my laptop only last September brand new. ........ May try the game again when it is back from the Toshiba techies. Well at least the warranty is still good. I agree with SC however that your system got hosed somehow. After reading that link I posted above, I'm sure glad I still use windows98se. "Older drivers and software are also a cause, while many applications that worked perfectly under older Windows versions will perform illegal operations in XP, also causing STOP errors." I use alot of older software (games, util etc...) plus another benefit for 98se is that it's not a target of hackers/virus writers they are concentrating now on the newer kid on the block XP . Of course 98 does have that issue of memory leak but with a good mem program that's not much of a bother. Anyway, good luck on the repair.
  18. quote:Originally posted by lodger: "PFN_LIST_CORRUPT" ( How long have you had your laptop and have you upgraded the memory recently? Here are some sample problems people have had with XP with the problem you stated. "PFN_LIST CORRUPT means that the system went to swap memory between the RAM and the VRAM on the hard drive, and couldn't. either: Pagefile.sys is not properly addressed.. did you change it's location in the registry? HDD Corruption -- The bad sector is located inside the pagefile.sys (although usually this would just cause a hang) BAD RAM -- (usually would give you a Page Fault Error instead)" "I had the same problem and came here to read the messages. I am running XP Pro on an HP P4 with 2x512 ram sticks, which I had upgraded from 2x256 ram sticks. Anyway after 3 months one day the Big Blue Screen showed up, I had not made ANY recent config. changes. So I pulled both 512 ram sticks and put the old 256 sticks back in. Started up like nothing ever happened. So I purchased a new 512 stick and put it and one of the suspected 512 sticks back in. Started up and Big Blue showed up again. I pulled the suspected 512 stick and replaced with the other one and started up like nothing happened. Been running ever since." Another Source of info Windows XP Stop Errors "0x0000004E: PFN_LIST_CORRUPT This indicates that the memory management Page File Number list is corrupted. Can be caused by corrupt physical RAM."

  19. Uh oh, this could be the start of an all new style of warfare Hacker Wars.
  20. quote:Originally posted by Supreme Cmdr: This is a gag right? Right? It's hard to tell. This could be the ultimate Andy Kaufman (from beyond the grave) gag in cahoots with his family and media. I haven't seen this on the T.V. news (or cnn.com or abc news site for that matter) yet and the only story I've seen mention about people in entertainment is the death notice of Tony Randall.

  21. Damn we've all been punked by the ultimate punkster!
  22. quote:Originally posted by Sard: 1: Just to update, this problem is growing worse- the game is now locking up almost constantly, I've rebooted at least six times in the past two hours. By upgrading to BcMG, what will happen to possibly correct this? I'm afraid the problem will carry over... I've been running BCM Gold with 1.01.06, properly installed, and the game is much more stable now, but there is still one small problem that essentially ruins gameplay- the game crashes to the desktop (no more freezes! ) under the logistix submenus. So far, it has only occurred while under a submenu (i.e., Tactical->Launch/Power/etc), most often when I change the support craft I'm working with. For instance, the game always crashes after I go into the launch menu to assign engineer to ready my fightercraft, the crash occurring when I click the arrow to increase assigned engineers or change support craft. 2: Hmmm. It finally went through... Hurrah, will link the system info now... 1: When was the last time you defragged the hardrive? From the sound of the way BCM/BCMG is crashing I'd bet that it is highly fragmented. I've had that problem in the past with games that I installed. So I uninstalled the particular game, run defrag and re-install the game and walla it runs without a hitch. Give that a shot. If that don't work read item 2 below. Ah, read it anyway. 2: How long have you been running the current install of windows98se. If it's been a while, I suggest you do an OS re-install. I, myself, find that when 98se starts acting very weird with installing, executing programs and entering information to do an OS re-install. It's alot easier than trying to repair registries and such. Yeah, yeah I know some of you will scoff at this but sometimes an OS re-install is unavoidable and necessary. IF you do decide to redo the OS, I suggest you follow my example: 1: Backup what you need. 2: Re-partition the Drives C:Boot,D:Games_Programs, E:Downloads and F:Temp_swap. Of course, you will now need to format the drives. Keeping C: just for the OS install and nothing else will help keep it corrupt free for a very long time and redirecting the windows swap file and temp internet files to F: will keep C: very clean you can also redirect MY_Documents to the F: drive. You know it only takes me less than 5 min to defrag C: when I occasionally decide to defrag it just for the heck of it. Well you get the point. I have posted about this before but I can't seem to find it using the search else I would have just linked to the my previous post.
  23. quote:Originally posted by Wolferz: It makes me a bit suspicious as to who is really writing these viruses. Virus threats to older Windows Operating Systems could persuade alot of people to upgrade their OS. No, I'm not going to start another conspiracy rant but, it does make ya wonder. Yeah, that thought crossed my mind too but most of the new virus attacks are against windows XP no one seems to be bothering with windows98 anymore which is one of the reasons I'm sticking with that OS for a while longer. Agree, makes ya wonder about alot of things.
  24. quote:Originally posted by Kalshion: ... All Kerry is, is a flip flopper... Hey that gives me an idea (although I should post this in science and technology). In the coming Neuro-computer revolution, do you think we can use his brain neurons for a very powerful flip-flop circuit? He would be useful for something after all.
  25. Good thing I have IE 6. Don't need to worry about that until someone finds a vulnerability and exploits it and I'm sure they will it's only a matter of time.
