    We could benefit from having a second Admin, one that's here more often.

    Besides, then we can say:

    Well, I think we should just ask that GX1_Man be setup as the admin them, or at least a Gmod. Gmods cannot change the entire forum, just what the admin specifies they can change.

      I paid for Windows ME and got a whole heap of trouble.  I didn't pay for Ubuntu Linux and didn't get a whole heap of trouble.  So I guess you don't get what you don't pay for...


      Or better yet you get what you didn't pay for... :D

        Now, come on, GX1_Man. You compare anything to winME and it puts WinME in the dust. Linux is great, true, but Windows ME defies the "get what you pay for" axiom. Heck, Windows 98 is better! That's really not a fair comparison. ;)

        Honestly! I haven't had ONE single problem with Windows ME!
        I've had MORE problems with 98! Too many BSOD's!

          Oh, I got the BSOD with 98, for sure. But when I got ME I got a BSOD an average of 10 times a day, to the point where the computer wouldn't run long enough to do a virus scan. This had partly to do with our reliance on Norton at the time to protect the system (hey, we didn't know), and partly to do with ME's instability.

          On Windows XP, I've gotten a BSOD maybe twice since I got my first copy of it way back in... can't remember... no matter. You can see why I like XP: Relative to other Microsoft OS's, it's extremely stable.

          I don't think I have ever gotten BSOD on Windows XP, that's because its been replaced with other error messages.

          But I really am not kidding: I haven't had any Windows ME problems.

              when we had winMe my lil sister did something to the nav. files which would cuz the bsod at the logon screen sometimes, or right after you logged on.. sadly i wasnt too familiar with the art of reformating  :-[ so we had to take it to a gateway shop in the next town and they said they fixed it but the only pushed the bsod back til 10 mins after youve logged on.. then we got a new computer.

              The NAV files?
              You mean "Norton AntiVirus"? Of course it would give you BSOD. As well as BS!

              Dilbert:
              That BSOD message comes before Windows XP starts. It represents that there is a hardware error and that starting your computer may cause SERIOUS damage.
              It also represents that my teacher has been trying to open the computers to eat the SPAM that she thought the SPAM filter caught.

                  LOL ;D

                  Actually, on several occasions I got a BSOD during my Windows session. I was unable to troubleshoot after the third time because it never came back.

                  Why'd I wait for numero tres for me to troubleshoot? My policy on troubleshooting. If it's a hardware problem, troubleshoot immediately. If it's a software issue, wait a bit and see if it was a fluke. :)
