<0> I did the reinstall first, then tried the WI cleanup
<1> Ah, OK then.
<2> why did you ask if EA and MS use the same vendor?
<2> you've said you have a problem with HL@ and DOW, and everything else works fine?
<0> yes
<2> I dunno even what DOW is, but I'm ***uming its another game
<0> yeah
<2> most installers are built with InstallShield or Wise Installer, or a couple more.
<0> I'm thinking it could be certain installer version
<1> DoW = Dawn of War, uses MSI
<2> InstallShield in particular has been notoriously buggy and annoying in older revisions
<0> like install shiel 9
<1> Other people have also had problems with DoW installation -- http://forums.relicnews.com/archive/index.php/f-125.html
<2> !google install problems dawn-of-war
<3> http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=167016
<4> Ted lap, it's too late now. I tried to do repair and it messed it all up worse... it tried to install files from cd that didn't exist on the install cd. So now i'm going to install from scratch
<4> our of curiousity, how do you do a registry restore?
<4> our - out
<1> maniacrip: For instance, if you have the DoW Demo installed, you must uninstall it first.
<2> arigo|irc; from a registry backup
<4> i mean the command, in recovery console
<1> maniacrip: It also looks like the installer may place some keys in the registry that may need to be deleted (look at http://forums.relicnews.com/archive/index.php/t-37800.html )
<1> arigo|irc: Have you exported a backup of the registry at any time?
<4> not that i'm aware of. Only sections, but I see where this is going ;P nm
<5> re
<0> nah no reg entries...
<0> whats the reg key to change how my computer identifies itself to programs?
<2> huh?
<0> like win2k--->winxp
<0> its possible I've done it
<2> the system version? thats not a registry key
<2> thats a API call
<2> GetWindowsVersion() or something
<0> you can change the version the program will see
<2> now, XP has a 'compatability' mode where it will lie about being a older version to specific programs if you tweak their shortcut, thats mostly for DOS apps
<0> no not compatability
<0> its a reg key
<2> 'registry keys' are just system settings. why would an OS have a setting for what it is?
<2> what OS are you running?
<0> christ how old are you?
<2> and what OS does this game say it requires?
<2> old enough to know better.
<6> For some reason, when I'm running Azureus, or any other bit torrent program my computer will either lock up, or reboot by its self. I've reformatted, and it still does it. I'm able to run Dreamweaver, Photoshop, ect, so it can't be that my computer isn't powerful enough.
<2> geekteen; one distinguishing factor of torrent programs is that they open up a LOT of tcp sockets, and send data BOTH ways on them. could be an issue with a firewall or security program on the computer choking under the load. torrent sometimes crashes cheap/buggy routers for example.
<7> geekteen: thanks for letting us know
<8> peerce: Or his NIC drivers.
<9> probably your NIC drivers are buggy, and all the connections bt opens up is causing it to bluescreen
<2> yah, that too.
<6> Hmm...interesting.
<0> hat
<10> maniacrip: Christ is about 2000 years old.
<6> I'm using a Linksys WRT54 router.
<11> reduce the max number of connections
<2> although with NDIS drivers I haven't seen much of that recently.
<11> and disable DHT
<7> Tora Tora Tora
<7> I'm boreda boreda boreda
<7> ah, I see gimp hasn't blown himself up since earlier today. good. very good
<11> yeah
<11> it's all still good
<11> AND
<7> find your fuel line?
<11> the entire interior is undercoated
<11> nah i can't find one locally
<11> gonna have to order it
<11> http://mustangdepot.com/OnLineCatalog/FuelSystems/fuel_lines.htm
<11> nice two different options
<11> i guess i'll have to measure later
<7> leaky and non-leaky?
<11> heh
<7> ah. steel and stainless
<11> 8 cyl early and 8cyl 5/16
<11> nah, size apparently
<11> i'm 99% sure i fall under the "early" catagory
<11> since this 67 was sold in 66 :P
<7> I'd pay the extra for the stainless
<11> oh of course
<12> It'll be ok Bart.
<7> well, cheap***es wouldn't :)
<6> Where do I disable DHT, and reduce max # of connections?
<12> WELL.
<7> XTR: Hold me
<12> APOLOGIZE.
<11> in the options
<11> **** if i know
<11> i use uTorrent
<7> k. now rub there a bit.
<6> lol, alright.
<6> I'll keep looking
<11> because azerusues blows nuts
<7> oh my. teehee
<7> wang chung
<6> Alright, I'll try utorrent
<13> utorrent rocks
<11> utorrent also has the benefit of being like 125k :P
<13> Yeah
<13> It plays nicely on my server
<7> it's lightweight
<9> utorrent doesn't properly throttle its DHT stuff so it eats up the 1024 connections per NAT client I have configured
<11> jet, so turn dht off
<9> and my NAT gateway starts blocking all connections
<6> Because I'm on a 3 ghz celeron, 1.256 gb ddr ram, and somewhere around 170 gb hard drive, so its not that my system can't handle azureus.
<7> dht?
<6> haha
<2> geekteen; if you're running XP or 2000, do make sure you have ALL available windows updates
<11> a 3hz celeron is like a 1.8 p4
<9> I've got Azureus configured with DHT enabled, it doesn't do that, so I'll stick with Azureus
<7> what mean DHT?
<14> http://images.ifun.ru/v/Vh1pM4xzMw.jpg
<9> geekteen: its not about "handling azureus"
<11> my dht doesn't do ****
<11> your router ****s balls
<9> its about how many connections bittorrent opens
<11> loph....
<11> ok so the breasts are fake
<11> but still
<11> dude
<7> so, DHT. what mean?
<2> he said its not his router thats crashing, its his SYSTEM
<2> !google DHT torrent
<3> http://azureus.sourceforge.net/plugin_details.php?plugin=azdhtscraper
<11> barry it's like
<11> torrenting
<11> but usign clients if the tracker dies
<7> trackerless support?
<2> ah, DHT is the distributed database.
<11> yes
<9> Gimp-Cow: my router "****s balls", because uTorrent chooses to make 1024 connections in a 2 second period?
<11> jet, yes
<7> what ver you using...1.5 or 1.4.2 beta 435?
<9> azureus somehow manages to avoid that
<11> because i have mine set to 450 max tcp connections
<11> and have dht on
<9> so I guess its utorrent that's not written write
<11> with 12 torrents loaded
<9> right
<11> and my **** works fine
<11> linksys ftw
<12> YOU GO C0W AND JET.
<7> why does this thing have specs going when it isn't downloading anything?
<7> stats
<15> Does Thunderbird come with an outlook express migration util? Anyone ever moved to tbird from OE?
<9> xtor: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_FAQs_:_Migrate_from_Outlook_Express
<2> yes, it imports settings and mail and ddresses from OE
<7> nice. looks like I got uTorrent to take over the one I started with ABC
<7> now to see if there is even a reason to switch :)
<12> ahaha.
<12> Bart I love Azureus.
<7> well, now that I actually allow sun java on my system, I suppose that is an option too.
