  2. Those guys also took down Battle.net and League of Legends servers on Saturday.
  3. Welcome to the MSFN!
  4. What is it about yes and no questions? It is solely due to driver support in the image. There isn't so much a generic HwID. Each controller will have its own HwID and specify the vendor and device IDs. So there is no garauntee that an OS can boot on IDE mode, it just so happens that is the most compatible. So it could be either Case 1 or 2. Not sure what you mean in #3, as Generalizing an image does not remove drivers. They would still remain in the OS, however sometimes Windows doesn't use them on new hardware. (this behaviour leads people to believe the drivers get removed) Anyways, the behaviour is normal. You may be able to get AHCI mode back by manually adding the driver (the "have disk" method) reboot, change the setting and then try to boot into Windows.
  5. Windows OS favorability oddly follows the similar trend of Star Trek movie favorability. I wonder what other products alternate between and releases.
  6. Here are some just for you. -Noel Hmmm lights not on. Are you implying jaclaz is a dim bulb?
  7. As I said in the deeper impressions thread, just use duckduckgo if you want anonymous searching.
  8. I enjoyed the Craig ones, although I'm not sure if I've seen them all. I know there was a dumb scene in Casino Royale where Bond saves his life using some gadget in his car.
  9. I ran into a problem installing NT4 on "newer" hardware, quite some time ago. http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/122950-what-should-i-load-on-a-triple-boot-pc/?p=795100 I'm not sure what the board was, I'm thinking it was an Intel 865 chipset.
  10. I think the strangest thing about private.me, is that it is owned by a lighting company. Anyways, it is some free advertisement for them huh? Why not just use duckduckgo? EDIT: Lostinspace beat you to this topic: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/172500-new-search-engine-promises-to-keep-your-data-private/
  11. I have seen them all, I'm not sure I have a favorite or enough to list. I like bits and peices of the movies... like that white Lotus (or whatever) that could also go underwater.
  12. I got a new computer! It is in the middle of this picture:
  13. That wouldn't work around here. I'm not sure what it is like in Chile, but here if you hit a domestic animal you are supposed to pull over and call it in. I'm also not certain if this is a rule of law or a neighborly etiquette.
  14. The only product I am aware of (that I use) that has a seamless, rapid-release type update system is Chrome. It updates itself and never notifies anyone, but then again it never has any problems. It hasn't helped Firefox much (imo) because it still notifies and asks to update... and I'm still clicking NO because I don't want my browser to start looking like Chrome.

  16. Well, I guess I haven't had to do that in some time then! You can try enabling boot logging, but in my experience sometimes the file isn't helpful.
  17. Welcome to the MSFN!
  18. That is MHz's avatar: http://www.msfn.org/board/user/26076-mhz/
  19. Preface: After connecting the drive to the PC, reboot and go in the BIOS. See if the drive is detected there. Regarding Windows XP: You can try updating the USB controller drivers, although it looks like Abit's newest is only in the nForce chipset package and it is from 2004. There may be newer drivers available on driverpacks. Also I note this board has 2 onboard ports and 4 from 2 header blocks. Have you tried all ports? http://abit.ws/page/en/motherboard/motherboard_detail.php@pMODEL_NAME=NF7-S2&fMTYPE=Socket%20A&pPRODINFO=Driver
  20. What motherboard is it?
  21. These drivers you tried to find, were they for your USB controller?
  22. What else is weird, the Win2000 updates aren't in the catalog, but the Server 2003 for Itanium one is.
  23. You can determine what the next "invisible" item is by doing a step-by-step boot.
  24. New sig made: EDIT: displays not all being equal, this image doesn't look so nice on an LCD monitor, for whatever reason. I will revert to my previous one.
  25. It is a point of view difference. The provider is not allowed to enforce the law, that is the job of the police. I used blanket statements and examples in what I wrote. To the provider, committing a crime is violation of the terms of service. Regarding this particular story, I suspect that the provider was not actively watching the user's activity (although the system should backup everything anyways) and was told to retrieve the data due to a tip or ongoing investigation into that person's activities for whatever reason. It could have specifically been for the published reason, or they could have been under investigation for something else. Who knows! But interesting how you point out, that the employee at the email provider may also be in violation of the law by looking for these illegal emails! It reminds me of a small town nearby where it is (or was) both illegal to back out or back into your driveway.
