well i played fable 2 and no problems there... and other numerous games... wow too... switched between game and web no problem...but sometimes all of a sudden the game and the pc freezes and then i can only reset...the thing that puzzles me the most... why do i have to relog always to email and ebay and dakka after a reset? what´s the point? i thought the cookies would stay???

if it's on steam, try right clicking it in your games library and going properties -> verify integrity of game cache.

Graphically, FO-3 is very memory intense.
Oh, you forgot to click the "remember me?" options to stay logged in even when away it should remember you, and auto-log.

nono... that option i have klicked on always... but after an emergency reset i have to relog again...if i switch off the computer ( shutting it down or whatever that is called...) i can easily surf dakka ...

at shrike... no i run it straight from the start menu...

Holy lost memories Vik-man!

If you have it under your steam games library, whether you run it from there or the desktop, it might still be a steam-related issue, AFAIK.

well aynway... i cope with it atm... might even be vista related... yeah i know... that prog is just begging for such things....

mates! i will call it a night... it is after all 01:00 again...

keep well mates!

NO! Stay Awake Vik!
haha j/k

Yeah FO can be a bit buggy on lower end systems, I can't alt+tab out, it crashes 8/10 times

Might hit the hay as well... damn it feels like it should be a friday...

Vista,,,,that is your problem right there! it does not play well well with other programs. Hence they went to Windows 7

now that you mention it... have heard talk about windows 8... when i get my first cash i had planned to get me windows 7... wise or should i just wait for 8?

your thoughts? and i think vista is a pain to the rear in all possible way...

Win7 is pretty stable, but it still has a lot of the same annoyances of Vista. Don't bother buying a new OS without a new PC though, it'll run like gak most likely.

hmmm... but a new pc is out of the budget for about a year i guess...darn...^^

are we talking here about building your own PC setup? i am a noob... i am able to put in a new card and new chunks of RAM and the occasional device but everything goes fruitshaped when i start to fumble around with motherboards... so i tend to buy at someone who knows his stuff...


well...i finally managed to clean up my desk too...and work on the weaponry for this Knight...

this is the sabre...





and this will be the maingun...






and here you see the toes of the feet...





note everything will get the GS treatment later on... when all is done i expect the Knight to look way more green than any other color...

cheers, vik

Oh
I just bought an 8 core set of these http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/buy/intelproducts/boxedprocessordetails.html?processor_nni-1019=all_prev_generation&product_id=92201&pagination_page=1&pagination_page=1&compare_ids=&processor_nni-1028=all_second_generation&pagination_pageSize=10&pagination_pageSize=10&processor_nni-1027=all_second_generation&processor_nni-1001=all_Xeon&processor_nni-1017=all_prev_generation&processor_nni-1018=all_prev_generation&processor_state=non-default&rangeslidercores_from=4&orderbar_by=processor&rangeslidercores_to=6&originating_from=boxed_processors&orderbar_dir=d&processor_gn=1001& to install with my server, Its gonna be pretty sweet! This has been an ongoing project for the past few years and this is the final piece

Looks cool, though the knees are still a tad bent inwards, and I think the sabre would be cool with some kind of hilt....

i agree fully...

and you will receive just that... all planned... i have to figure out how to make the hand guard of the sabre too...

hopefully tomorrow this will be the item of that day^^

the knees are a tad difficult... if i can´t solve this with some extra armor i fear the bended knee look will have to stay... maybe it will look a tad better when i have the arms attached... so to look like a fighting stance more...but who am i kidding here...^^

oo i like those nice little wooden toes on the knight there vikington, and those arms are coming along nicely

lol... vikington... that sounds as grande as el vic...lol

thanks for the compliments... hope i can make all those even better still^^

well theres no rivets yet, so dont worry they can only get better.. ( btw i hope you pronounced that VIK-ING-TON, not VIKING_TON )

After watching some Godzilla flicks on Crackle, I think name it "King Vik-a-Ton"

at first i did the former than the later... but i like the first one better^^

well additional armor will certainly make a difference and then the rivtes will make a disatraction from all the bendy legs^^

lol yea!

vik... i think the 3rd ork needs to go..

Good thing you didn't give him too much squat in his stance, you'd have to then model a pile of scrap metal
