  1. That's because IE does "shortcuts" by not loading the HTML properly.
  2. You have/had a damaged cache file. I know Microangelo has a way to fix the cache, but I am unsure how to do it otherwise...
  3. Felt it would be appriopriate to say Happy Thanksgiving to everyone here. It may not be Thanksgiving everywhere in the world, but we can still say thanks to all of our friends, regardless. I'm thankful for all of the friends I've made here and all the learning experiences that come from reading the Msfn.org forums. Thanks everyone, for everything! Now, where's that turkey...
  4. The EVEREST Home Edition page has an FAQ featuring the question I asked. FAQ Q 18: On the Motherboard / Chipset page, the AGP rate is lower than the maximum supported, or even the AGP seems to be completely disabled. How to fix this? A 18: It can be because motherboard chipset drivers have not yet been installed, or the AGP video card in the system is incapable of AGP texturing (e.g. 3Dfx Voodoo Banshee or Voodoo3). Or it's simply a PCI video card. To solve the driver problem, it is recommended to first install the motherboard chipset driver, and after that to install the driver for the video card. I downloaded the AMD chipset drivers, though I think I'll try what they said and reinstall my graphics drivers just in case. I've tried RivaTuner and I honestly didn't like having an extra item in startup. If absolutely necessary I may just use it as a last resort. Last drivers for my computer: Windows 95/98/Me Version: 61.76 Release Date: July 20, 2004
  5. I use Msn 6.2 and Aim 5.2 with AIMutation 1.2.1
  6. Took a screenshot. Its set as AGP 1x when the motherboard is capable of 2x maximum. This computer is 4 years old. An AMD Athlon 800MHz, 256MB RAM, 60GB HD, GeForce4 Ti4600 128MB graphics card.. Need more info, just tell me.
  7. I believe the only thing relating I saw was AGP Aperture Size 64 MB or 256MB, and in fear of messing anything up, I left it alone. Though now that I think about it, on a GeForce4 Ti4600 128MB card, wouldn't 256MB be 2x? If so, why would it say 64MB when 1x would be 128MB? Btw, Msfn is faster than AMD Support forums! Huzzah! Not even 19 reads on the post there. Sad. The forum and the post. Next time I reboot I'll make note of everything in the BIOS to see what I'd need to change.
  8. Could you direct me to where I said that? As I do not recall saying that, unless it was from an old post dating back to much earlier this year.
  9. That's a shame. My friend really wanted one.
  10. I'd say use a software firewall like Outpost Pro. It can alert you if you somehow get a virus, spyware, adware, etc.
  11. Drew, its in the funny farm... Its a joke... About the only thing I can see as being remotely funny is that it's Canadians with guns. *snicker*
  12. Using EVEREST Home edition (formerly AIDA32) I've noticed the following problem: Problem Current AGP speed is lower than maximum supported. This may cause performance penalty. This brings me to my two questions. How can I correct the AGP speed issue, making it 2x instead of 1x? Under Error Correction, do I need ECC enabled; if so, how? (Not really critical, would prefer to solve AGP speed issue) Using an AMD Athlon 800MHz with Windows ME, 256MB RAM, 60GB HD, GeForce4 Ti4600 128MB graphics card. I've checked under my BIOS to see what all I need to change, however I saw nothing relating. If more information is needed I can provide.
  13. I have a friend who collects guns, I'll show him this post. He may like chatting with you. Btw, how many are there? From my gun collecting friend: Have him take a pic of just a single rifle, full side view. But tell him that right now, as a lot, he won't make as much as he will if he sells them off one at a time.
  14. System Restore Remover Pro is a nice little tool. http://www.majorgeeks.com/download516.html I used it to remove System Restore (since I use GoBack) and PCHealth (which is junk anyways).
  15. It's a learning experience. I'm wondering what the VB code for "Call" would be in Delphi. I made a simple little application in VB called QuickMsnAim to load Msn and AIM after I loaded Windows, instead of having them in startup. I want to make this application in Delphi now.
  16. Try using the Search feature in the future. Your post can be found here.
  17. Compiled vs. Interpreted Applications See Also By default, applications created in Visual Basic are compiled as interpreted or p-code executables. At run time, the instructions in the executables are translated or interpreted by a run-time dynamic-link library (DLL). The Professional and Enterprise editions of Visual Basic include the option to compile a native code .exe. In many cases, compiling to native code can provide substantial gains in speed over the interpreted versions of the same application; however, this is not always the case. The following are some general guidelines regarding native-code compilation. Code that does a lot of primitive operations on hard-typed, nonstring variables will yield a maximum ratio of generated native code to displaced p-code operations. Complex financial calculations or fractal generation, therefore, would benefit from native code. Computationally intensive programs, or programs that shuffle a lot of bits and bytes around within local data structures, will gain very visibly with native code. For many programs, especially those doing a lot of Windows API calls, COM method calls, and string manipulations, native code will not be much faster than p-code. Applications that consist primarily of functions from the Visual Basic for Applications run-time library are not going to see much if any advantage from native code, because the code in the Visual Basic for Applications run-time library is already highly optimized. Code that involves a lot of subroutine calls relative to inline procedures is also unlikely to appear much faster with native code. This is because all the work of setting up stack frames, initializing variables, and cleaning up on exit takes the same time with both the p-code engine and generated native code. Note that any calls to objects, DLLs or Visual Basic for Applications run-time functions will negate the performance benefits of native code. This is because relatively little time is spent executing code — the majority of time (usually around 90–95%) is spent inside forms, data objects, Windows .dlls, or the Visual Basic for Applications run time, including intrinsic string and variant handling. In real-world tests, client applications typically spent about 5% of their total execution time executing the p-code. Hence, if native code was instantaneous, using native code for these programs would provide at most a 5% performance improvement. What native code does is to enable programmers to write snippets of code or computationally intensive algorithms in Basic that were never possible before because of performance issues. Enabling these "snippets" to run much faster can also improve the responsiveness of certain portions of an application, which improves the perceived performance of the overall application. For More Information To learn more about native-code compilation, see "Compiling Your Project to Native Code" in "More About Programming." Source: MSDN Online Library In my experiences everything within the application was much faster. I even found that my programs would load faster and respond faster as well. When compiling to P-Code you basically remove the checks and other items of that nature from the application that get "stuck in" during compiling.
  18. last time i checked even having Assassination and President in the same sentance was a jailable offense.... Ahh, then they'd get you too! lol!
  19. I wouldn't be surprised in the least to see that a lot of people actually download this game. One thing I must wonder is the following, would this be jailable? I ponder that considering how any speak of *coughing* the President (current or former) is a jailable offense. Please correct me if I'm wrong, which I'm pretty sure I am. Edited for Bi0.
  20. Next time you do a compile, try out P-Code. You'll be surprised with the results. *Checking out Fusion*
  21. What methods do you use to compile? I personally use Compile to P-Code, as it removes a lot of needless data from your application, literally cutting the size in half and doubling the speed.
  22. Source: CNN.com Kennedy assassination re-created in video game The release of "JFK Reloaded" is timed to coincide with the 41st anniversary of Kennedy's murder in Dallas and was designed to demonstrate a lone gunman was able to kill the president. "It is despicable," said David Smith, a spokesman for Massachusetts Sen. Edward Kennedy, the late president's brother. He was informed of the game on Friday but declined further comment. Kirk Ewing, managing director of the Scottish firm Traffic Games, which developed the game, said he understood some people would be horrified at the concept, but he insisted he and his team had nothing but respect for Kennedy and for history. "We believe that the only thing we're exploiting is new technology," said Ewing, a former documentary filmmaker and senior executive with Scottish developer VIS, responsible for games like "State of Emergency." He said he sent Edward Kennedy a letter before the game's release. Ewing said the game was designed to undermine the theory there was some shadowy plot behind the assassination. "We believe passionately there was no conspiracy," he said. Traffic Games said the objective was for a player to fire three shots at Kennedy's motorcade from assassin Lee Harvey Oswald's digitally recreated sixth-floor perch in the Texas School Book Depository. Points are awarded or subtracted based on how accurately the shots match the official version of events as documented by the Warren Commission, which investigated Kennedy's assassination. Shooting the image of Kennedy in the right spots in the right sequence adds to the score, while "errors" like shooting first lady Jacqueline Kennedy lead to deductions. Each shot can be replayed in slow motion, and the bullets can be tracked as they travel and pass through Kennedy's digitally recreated body. Players can choose to see blood by pressing a "blood effects" option. Players can view the motorcade from a number of angles, including the perspective of filmmaker Abraham Zapruder and a view from the "grassy knoll" where some conspiracy theorists believe a second gunman was stationed. The game will be available via download for $9.99.
  23. For i = 1 To 20 list = INITool1.GetFromINI("Track" & i, "Location", App.Path & "\settings.ini") If list = "[NOT FOUND]" Then 'do nothing and don't add to the list Else playlist.AddItem list End If Next i End Sub Just a minor tweak, but you might want to try... For i = 1 To 20 list = INITool1.GetFromINI("Track" & i, "Location", App.Path & "\settings.ini") If list <> "[NOT FOUND]" Then playlist.AddItem list End If Next i End Sub
