  1. I have fairly bad back issues too, although mine's upper back, between the shoulders, so it's a bit different. I work a lot on my arms and upper torso for muscle support around the neck/upper spine. Tai chi type movements and such. Definitely help...every time I slack off for too long I end up spending a day or three in bed.
  2. Excellent? No...but it's not crap. The vid card's a little older tho (nvidia 6200 I think), and still AGP, so I won't have top of the line texture smoothing and all that tech mumbo jumbo, no. But I suspect it'll still look good. edit - the rest of my pc meets or exceeds the 'recommended' specs tho ...damn that's one long install....
  3. That's a nice feature, letting you change once. Reading the brief manual, also nice you can buy for sale houses now, instead of finding some empty house to dump everything in, lol. I suspect I'll probably wander and explore more than 'play'...like I did w/MW. The install screens are pretty.
  4. All right...I bought this game today, finally...along with some new headphones that sound much better. Now I can see what all the hoopla is about...
  5. *looks at her files* It's version 2.61Basic. I told you it was ancient.
  6. I pretty much laughed at the start of the game when I saw my Exile in her 1930's inspired (or something) 'underwear'.
  7. Every time I see something like this, all I can think is how much the internet has changed in 20 years.
  8. Editors make it all better. Well, mostly. But yeah...1st game was the classic. I just can't play it every day. LOL
  9. Maybe something else you have checked/another setting is conflicting. I have Windows Classic 'style' and everything unchecked (in that list) except for that one, and it works for me.
  10. Oh...the comic book guy. I've only seen him in a couple 'new' Superman comic compilation 'novels'. At least I think it was the same guy. What, are they killing him off or something?
  11. Too many corpses littering your hallways? Call Happy Imp Cleaners...the dungeon's best housekeepers.
  12. What was childish?
  13. Not to say such readings aren't useful now and then...I looked up 'not breathing while sleeping' which is why hubby finally knows he has sleep apnea - but they can also turn people paranoid, or worse, into self-diagnosers that keeps them from actually going to a doctor. But I'm glad it worked out like that for you...always feels great when something you learn actually helps someone.
  14. Waste of time is subjective...to me it's a waste of time and resources to get a program if I'll never use it for anything but one thing that Windows can do anyway...but if you like the program and want all its features, that's great, maybe others will too....either the guy will do it XP way or try your program, or both, who cares? heh
  15. It appears to be gone...maybe too long inactive and they delete it?
  16. I second that who.
  17. Hahaha!! That's why I stopped reading general healthcare books...read enough of them and soon you'll think you have every disease & abnormality ever discovered.
  18. It's not snappy...just options. Listing just a program as the solution doesn't tell him how to do it via XP.... Maybe he'd like to know how to do it in Windows alone, regardless...so I told him. :D
  19. I still use an ancient version of Winamp to play things on my computer... :"> I've tried using a few others over the years and they always feel too 'bloated' to me, for my purposes.
  20. It maybe a good program/mod/whatever you call it, but maybe he doesn't want yet another 3rd party program just for one simple visual function he wants.
  21. There are general practictioners and specialists who don't work out of hospitals (they're the ones some HMO insurance programs use) but they won't be cheap either. Some places will accept a payment plan of some kind if you tell them you have no insurance. The cost of the office visit/consult usually isn't too horrible, it's the tests and things. But I wouldn't mess around with it....if it's interfering with work and ability to function, see someone. Such things could be anything simple from some years long casual habit that's finally throwing things out of whack (posture/sitting habits, bad mattress etc) or something more severe - I'd probably start with a chiropractor too. If even that's not affordable, perhaps you could ask some doctors if there are any low-cost clinics around your area that could at least be a starting point.
  22. r-click my computer, click properties, click advanced/performance/visual effects - down at the bottom of the check list, check the "use drop shadows on windows and buttons" if it's already checked, dunno.
  23. *scratches head* Is Imdb's brief list wrong, then? They often can be, cause they don't seem to update those pre-production notes much. Edit: Not that I'm cheering for Hasselhoff to be in the movie. Or the movie itself, for that matter....
  24. That's a very interestingly shaped room, rosbjerg. I like that window shelf with the step raised floor & the ceiling slope of what I assume is a small closet door. The candle holders are cool too. :D I have a sub-woofer under my desk too...not as big/powerful, but I love the bass. Which reminds me, I should get some new PC speakers.
  25. WoT and the Computer/Console forum - average 25 or so is my guess. The entire forum, average around 20. Over the course of the years I feel a bit like the average age on game forums goes up a tad, as all the teen/20's gamers 'back then' age and are still gamers. Depends on the genre somewhat tho - RPG forums tend to be a bit 'older' in general, I find.
