Best RPG ever?

Here are my three; Fallout II: Post Apocalyptic games own me big time. My first introduction into turn based RPGs, and I love it. I love the dry humour used throughout the game, and the futuristic but somewhat archaic setting. Great character interactions. Baldurs Gate II: Simply Amazing...

Geforce 4 MX Problems

Gday, I recently bought a MSI Geforce MX 440 8xAGP for $75AUS and I'm installing it in dads computer. I thought it, as a Graphics card, would be simple and routine like graphics card installs usually are. I was gravely misinformed. Upon installing everything was going well. I had slotted it...

Vice City and Radeon- Please Help me!!

Same thing happened to me, well, sorta. I tried to burn a backup of my savegame, and for some strange reason it corrupted my save games (somehow, don't ask how) and I was quite near the end. :/

Linux has a steep learning curve, but I like the way you can customise your GUI quite alot. Its pretty daunting for new users. I'm a seasoned Windows person, but with linux, you try to install a driver/software/update and it just doesn't work most of the time, and for a new user, it doesn't...

LOOK OUT! ITS A JEDI!!! Seriously though, doing that would be suprisingly strenuous. Not enough to warrant stopping, but its not a walk in the park... Well, if he was doing it properly.
