LMAO! |
That was just too perfect. The sound effects and music fit it so well. And then Mario at the end, XD.

So there I was with my laptop in about 15 pieces scattered about. I had been trying to fix the floppy/CD drives, since it's really pretty useless without them. (No way to get data in or out, besides downloading from free AOL dialup or printing, or I could record and play back a WAV file. ) The CD drive seemed to just have a motor problem, so I figured I could probably fix it if I just started up DOS/windows and tried some stuff until it worked. So I turned it on with the hard disk removed, hoping that I could get into DOS from the BIOS alone. (Hey, it has a Win3.1-style interface, why not? ) It wouldn't do it though, just typical 'no operating system, try again, you fail' stuff. So I figured I'd have to actually put the HD back in. Of course, it'd probably be best to shut it off first. I hit the power button... nothing happens. I hit it a few more times, the light blinks but the system keeps running. So I yanked out the AC cord. (The battery was still inside.) I figured that might do it. It's always had problems running on AC. As soon as I did that, the screen started tripping out and going nuts. Pfft, typical 15-year-old laptop. |
That's when I noticed the smoke. After a bit of brief panicking, I ripped the battery out. That stopped it. I couldn't find any evidence of damage, strangely enough. I haven't tried it since then. I just hope the screen and IR port survived, they were like the only useful parts. (Well that and the hard disk, but it wasn't connected.) So now I have a box full of laptop parts and an HD with files I want on it and nothing to read it with. It looks like a standard IDE drive (but smaller), except there's no power connector. It would sit in this little holder which adapted the plug to a smaller one... Weird. So yeah, that was fun.

BEFORE ANYONE ASKS: No, you don't gain quality by resampling to a higher bit rate, thank you. |
||bass, I'll switch when I can add support for it to both of my MP3 players for free. Originally posted by Garmichael The T and P aren't even near eachother. Paging Dr Freud... (edited by HyperHacker on 12-01-04 01:46 PM)

Different computer. |
Yeah, your monitor's probably toasted, if 3 different cards didn't work. Or your AGP slot.

I want this piece of poo to go faster. Here's what's in it (Pavillion XG843) according to HP.com: |
*Intel Celeron 800 MHz processor *Socket 370 *100 MHz FSB Here's what I want (couldn't find anything better) according to newegg.com: Model: Intel Pentium III Core: Tualatin Operating Frequency: 1.13GHz FSB: 133MHz Cache: L1/16K+16K; L2/256K Voltage: 1.5V Process: 0.13Micron Socket: Socket 370 Multimedia Instruction: MMX, SSE, SSE2 Packaging: OEM(Processor Only) So would that work in this computer? Is it worth it? (They're asking 50 bucks US, but unless they stop the 'only ships to US' crap pretty quick, I won't be buying it there for obvious reasons. ) Or is there some way I could just overclock this one?

The ultimate weapon. Now rather than quote all the big posts... Anya: PWNED BY SPONGEBOB That's sad. Trapster: Kinky. Xeogred: I wish someone really would kill Tripod with a katana. Looking at the URL I think it's supposed to be Martha Stewart.

I have an actual PC controller. I still use the keyboard for RPGs sometimes, though. |

You might be able to toggle the layer 3 translucency with HDMA. |
Originally posted by Smallhacker Agreed. What happens when the text appears though, does everything stop or does the game keep going?

Originally posted by Kratos Aurion I have an even better idea (really the same basic thing) that would also be easier to do. (You might be able to do it with palette animation, even.) Make the lights blink on and off in sequence like you often see done in decorations! And I agree about the blue. Just looking darker would either look like it was cloudy or everything would just look bad. I also like the idea of going inside the chimney and having the actual level take place inside the house. The problem being that the house is really small. Solution? Mario somehow gets shrunk down to the size he looks! (As in, 1/16 inch per pixel. ) A giant house would make an awesome level. [edit] Hey, I didn't even notice the changing lights. Cool! (edited by HyperHacker on 12-01-04 05:39 PM)

On the colour selector box, there should be up and down buttons, click a few times. (That got me at first too. ) |

You people think you're short? I'm 6 feet and I'm taller than most people around here. It's akward when I'm talking to someone 3 times my age and they only come up to my nipples. (Especially when it's a female doctor and I have my shirt off. I'm sure she just loved it.) |
Google: 6 feet = 1.8288 meters. Metric > *, but since everyone's using feet, I may as well too. (And it's easier to remember. )

Few strings of blinking lights, a tree, and some decorations. I'd love to have one of those huge light displays (I <3 little blinking lights ) but they're expensive and difficult to set up. Some outside force always breaks the strings when they're in storage too. (Tangles up wires too! Little bugger.) |
There's a guy down the road who puts up all sorts of them. You can see his house glowing and changing colour from a mile away. |
