Savestates are for losers, I still don't use 'em.

Anyway 15 to 20 years ago, probably Contra, TMNT, and some shitty TNG game for Genesis (i didn't own an assload of games, so I tried getting through it anyway).

Also there's a part in Quake II that I never passed until recently. whee

I've had that happen with an NVIDIA card and bad drivers, but that doesn't necessarily mean your graphics card or drivers are the problem...

I would suggest running memtest86+ on it for at least a couple passes, it will check whether your RAM is bad, which is a far more common cause of problems.

Uh, download the GParted LiveCD to resize your main partition to the entire disk size (make sure you have XP SP1 or later, original XP doesn't support more than 127GB partitions).

While I'm sorry to hear that, I think you somewhat overreacted by instantly formatting and reinstalling. By the lone virtue of the probability of too large parts of C: being in the process of being rewritten at once being quite low, what likely happened is that, at most, some part of the partition table or C:'s FS metadata broke - which would have enabled you to restore the partition to a near-unharmed state using tools that are floating around the internet. I managed to manually restore accidentally deleted partitions before...

It's funny. NTFS is supposed to have a journal, but apparently the Microsoft engineers never actually implemented it into the chkdsk routine.

Sorry to tell that YOU ARE COMPLETELY WRONG. I've been visiting Acmlm without any proxy server since 2006, meanwhile SMWCentral, Iceboard, et al. all need a proxy server to visit.

I don't know, I used a proxy from inside China, and this board was blocked.

Oh well, please avoid sensitive topic.

Speak for yourself, it is your responsibility if your government clubs you to death for free speech.

[edit]Just as I finished the above content, and I refreshed Acmlm, suddenly the whole Acmlmboard became 404'd. Now I'm using proxy server to visit. I'm not sure about the reason, but it doesn't seem like goverment had banned Acmlmboard in such a short time.

Probably detects key words such as Tiananmen. (btw, this board is not called "acmlm" or "acmlmboard", for future references)

Only 32 hours left as of this posting

I never played it, but wanted to, so I've bought it. Had hell of a time getting to run it in wine, though CrossOver Games runs it.

The deal should be over by now, even though the site still shows it for 98¢. Anyway, I've played a little of it (through Unforeseen Consequences), seems ok.

I think I'm just a sucker for deals like this, but heh. I'd rather have a boxed copy than Steam, and I'll probably get one some day if I enjoy the game.

Depends, but generally preallocation is to allocate all necessary space for the download before you actually get the data. It generally makes disk operations far faster as you don't need to allocate on the fly. Depending on your download speed and how fragmented your filesystem is, you may or may not actually notice a difference.

(Preallocation is also the same thing most DVR programs (eg, MythTV) use to make recording and seeking in live TV seem instantaneous)

PartitionMagic is very old and unmaintained software, with several severe bugs that cause data loss for even the simplest operations. I do not recommend it at all, and suggest you get GParted instead.

GParted also has its own LiveCD, which is very quick to boot compared to Ubuntu or Knoppix; plus you're better guaranteed to get less buggy versions since it's updated specifically for GParted updates.
