Well, I had a memory leak, and 26.6% of my files were infected, I'm sure there were more viruses though... ugh... So I decided to format my computer cause I couldnt get rid of the viruses, now my windows ME wont install, I really screwed it up somehow... So, I'm gonna go out, get myself a shiny new windows XP disk, and then we'll go from there.

This got me thinking, what do I do around here? I made those bushes, am I still needed? If I am, sweet, but I need more work. As for the skins, Widowmaker is way better than me anyways, so, im not needed in that area. I wont be able to reply to anything for a few days max, I'll hopefully get my computer running in a day or two.... So, yeah, just thought i should say something so you guys dont think I'm dead or somthing. :p

Damn, that sucks about Widowmaker, he is a good skinner... well, I have a computer at my disposal for today and some of tommorow, mind u its 10:15pm and I'm tired, and have nothing to do, so I might go to bed in a bit. Well, so, as soon as I get XP and get it installed I'll start looking for somthing to do, be prepared :p

Tell me what is the problem, paranoid, I guess it is just a little thing you forgot or something..

haha I use XP, just because I started on Windows and have never really taken the time to try out linux. Once I get my new machine from school I'll probably install it on there and just run it as an FTP server, so I can learn some about linux, but that's about it

Forgot about this...

My problem is that when im installing it, it asks to see the windows 98 disk for conformation, so i put the windows 98 disk in, and then it checks it, says its ok, and asks me to put the windows ME disk back in, the windows that says "98 conformation completed, please insert windows ME disk" when i press ok it goes down for a bit the first time i click it, then it pops up again and wont go away... :o

Eh, i want XP because I have 3dsmax6, but it cant run on ME, lol. And I have loads of other programs that are only compatable with XP, so I'm gonna try to get XP, but for now im gonna have to try to get my ME or 98 installed... :p I never had a windows 98 product key, if i can get one ill be set. ^_^

Linux is technically much better. Less code, more features, less bugs, less crashes. However, it doesn't have as much support and isn't as user friendly.
