Life / *** Rediscovering the Kingdom ***

Boy, you are a little deep for me here. I would have to take your stuff sentence by sentence, to figure if I agree.

Right now I don't believe I do. But I will have to re-read, then read again...

Life / *** Rediscovering the Kingdom ***
« on: October 12, 2004, 01:27:40 PM »
I am with Andy on this one. But at the offset, I will say this, You error slightly in saying that we are "Offspring".

I would clarify the wording of offspring and maybe say that we are actually created. We are not as much offspring, as we are created in the image, containing traits and attributes, and such of the creator.

I would suggest a book if I may as well... CS Lewis's Mere Christianity.

Very good book defining the position of us as compared to the creator. But good subject. It will be interesting to see the discussion.

LAN Parties / LAN Party issues
« on: September 23, 2004, 02:45:32 PM »
I have a question.

Does anyone think it is a little odd that we would ba able to "hedge" our odds when a drawing is about to happen?

I mean, just before the drawing for the ram was about to take place, Ambush received money for tickets for the drawing.  A suggestion in the future, please make rules clear about when we can purchase tickets. For example, let's say I knew the OCZ Ram that was being "given" away was say: $250.00. I could, in theory, break out a hundred dollar bill just before the drawing, and hedge by odds of getting the ram. I felt that was a little questionable as far as ethics. Allowing someone to essentially "buy" up odds right at the moment of the drawing.

Not mad, just my opinion on it.

LAN Parties / Jolly\'s Base
« on: September 21, 2004, 10:15:00 PM »
Jolly

I am going to have a base made for you. It will be able to set under your pc. It will sport a small round receiver at one corner. I will then place a stick of some kind. A rod? then mount your terrible flag on it. It looked so cool I thought I would take the liberty and make you one that sets under your PC. I am also going to check into a silk flag so that it moves a little. But it will look exactly like the one you have... Give me some time. It will look great.

LAN Parties / Good Times at the LAN party
« on: September 20, 2004, 01:44:08 PM »
Great Party. Couple of things, though. I would have liked it better if we had paid a little more, and some eats were free. But that is just me. All in all it was a good time, and hopefully, I can break away and come to the next one...

It was good to actually meet Jolly and Snauz, and put a face with a name.

LAN Parties / Lan Party Rules
« on: September 02, 2004, 02:57:16 PM »
HEY ALL!

I have a question

Your rules allow for those who would never come, to place their name in the hat and reserve a spot they potentially will never fill...

Why not make this rule:

There are 100 seats available.

Pre-Pay gets you to the head of the class, so, if you are the 110th sign-up, but you prepay and only 50 have prepaid, then you are BAM! the 51st "Regestered" seat....

Thataway if I want to be there and have the measily 10 bucks that some can't seem to afford, then I actually could get in... Instead, there are those who have taken slots that won't be thewre when (if you allow pre-pay to dominate) you would at leats have the money even if I decided not to show....

Just a thought.

Hardware / I need a PCI Video card!!!
« on: May 26, 2004, 12:21:48 AM »
YEPPER I have a few....

I think I even have an old ISA Sound Blaster evennn.

I did manage to land an old Gateway 2000 for 20 bucks. It was a P2-450 with all the software and documentation... AND all of the previous owner's ... let's say critical information?

Lucky for them, I am an ethical hacker! :shame:

Wanted to post that I have upgraded...

New Box is as follows:

ASUS A7N8X-E Delux MOBO
120 GIG PC 133 Drive (Decided not to go SATA)
1GIG of Corsair Twin 512 XMS PRO Ram Sticks with the Ram usage LED Bridge
XP 2700+ Processor Barton Core.
CoolerMaster Jet7 Turbo Cooler
Saphire ATI 9800 Pro Video Card.

This machine is a rockin piece... Hope I can actually use it...

Also, I have now an ASUS 266E Board if someone is needing one, I will let it go cheap... I also have an ASUS 166-E too.

I have two Audigy sound cards. and 1 Sound Blaster Live Platinum with the front end controller.

Anyhoo. Wanted to brag, but I know ole Boomslang has a box that probably puts all of us to shame. Too bad my moment in the sun lasted only a moment.

I have only reloaded XP 5 times this year. I think I am, doing good... Ummm it's the others I have reloaded allot. Like ME, and 98. I think I have reloaded in all maybe thirty times in 2003. Not a new record mind you, but a healthy maintenance of one...

By the way, I know know a couple of people at MS. Is that not normal? I think I now have my own hotline to them...

I have a dumb issue but I can;t seem to figure it out...

I usually set all my PC's home pages to ...Well...
AMBUSHSITE .COM of course...

Anyway, every couple of initiations of Explorer, my home page changes to some search engine, I think it's called ZIPSEARCH?

I keep entering the ambushsite and reset the home page to current and it works a couple of times...

Any suggestions? I am a little new at XP in this area. I have not seen this before..

Ask the techies! / PLEASE HELP!!!!
« on: December 06, 2003, 10:49:00 AM »
Z,

Spade and I are in the process of getting satilite system installed. Mine is in now and I do not have e-mail as of today... But the system has a download of up to 2 meg, and an upload of 56K. Throughput though, is right at 900K.

Anyway I expect that Ken will be online soon say about three weeks. We have to run a bunch of cable through his place. Take Care...

Ask the techies! / More from the \"PLEASE HELP!!!!\" issue
« on: December 06, 2003, 10:35:46 AM »
BYW I am not a new member. I just take very long vacations... Lots of new faces...

I have a couple of suggestions...

First of all I am assuming that you have some kind oF generic Disk (Hard drive) If so, I suggest using a real fdisk utility like AEFDISK, or WIPE. These will wipe out a drive completely... Also they can and will be able to wipe your boot record.

if you do not have a generic drive, which I would more assume since you have a ATA133 drive, I would assume that you have like a Maxtor, or Seagate drive... I use only Maxtor, but not because it is all that much better than anyone else, but because I like the drive's performance for me... The way I do it for XP Pro...

((And by the way I have several 98 machines and a couple of ME machines going all the time, but only one XP Pro box)))

The way I do it is that I use the MAXBLAST to set up my dive. This allows for a format and partition to take place before the set up of XP. One other thing I would do, you mention that you are hanging AFTER setup initiates it first drop of files to the drive... This hang would point me, if it were my machine, to the bios settings... I would short out the C-MOS and get the board back to factory specs... The fact that you can load ME and can get through the set up says that normally, the board is not faulty. Try those things:

Use Wipe or AEFDISK (I use AEFDISK) and wipe out the drive completely.

Reset the MOBO to Factory Defaults,

And set up if you can, the disk through the Manufacturer utility...

Let me know what happens...


ALSO, I will say this, I think it was Boomslang that said that your drive may be bad? I had this issue:

I purchased a drive, NIB and set it up, but for the past year now, I have been unable to get an OS to be stable. While on the phone with ZW I went over this problem. It turns out that the drive side of the disk was off just a bit. and I would get errors right at loading, but normally at boot... I replaced the drive and everything is great. XP runs like a champ... It could be the issue, but in oh, 8 some years of computing, this was my first issue with a drive. It is rare, but can happen. If nothing else works, do the above suggestions on a simple 4 GIG drve and see if it loads...

HI TO ALL! I HAVE DIRECWAY AND AM ONLINE ALWAYS LIKE YOU PIFFY CABLE FOLKS!!!!

Whatever / Chat BoX?
« on: September 11, 2003, 05:04:45 PM »
Z

Have you ever thought about a chat box, for authorized visitors, or something like that? You could build it on the home page of the forum, and then those who are logged on, could chat online...

Just a suggestion.

By the way-----  HI EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!

There is a special place for those originals of the AMBUSH! Clan. Actually just at my feet; not really moving; somewhat decapitated; blood ooooozing; panting, sitting at their keyboards, leaning back on their chairs; sweating; and...

WISHING they were as good as the all empowered ROGUE!

Love to you all!!!

ME.:)
