I'm trying to find a computer game that I played several years ago (around 2000, I think). When I played it, it was a beta, so I'm not sure if it was ever finished.
Things I'm sure about:
Other features I remember:
Anybody else remember this game, specifically what it was called? I was just telling a friend about it, and it's driving me nuts that I can't find it anymore, or even remember its name. - FunnyMan 00:47, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Sounds very intersesting! If you're interested in that kind of thing you should check out Anacreon (computer game).. it's the RTS version of nethack as far as cult status is concerned :) -- froth T C 22:40, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
sir i want to know the price chat of different models of laptop,and what are the features it has?
I speak RefDeskia, and can interpret that into English as "price chart". :-) StuRat 04:15, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Hi there,
If I have windows 2000 server and some times it is not booting from first switch on and I need
to do that again after some time then will work fine and after many hours or minutes will shutdown without notifying me.
What can I do regarding this problem??
Cheers,
Abdullah
I've been experiencing a strange phenomenon when using firefox to edit the ref. desk pages. Ther eis a significant delay (~1 sec) when I type on my keyboard and when it shows up in the box. I'm sure ther eis a faq about this? ANy ideas? I'm forced to use IE!! Jasbutal 05:02, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
I've noticed that when I convert Word docs to PDF using any kind of converter and then print them, the printing is very slow. However, if I print out the same Word doc and then scan it back in as a PDF using a Fujitsu ScanSnap, and then print it, it is much faster.
Apparently it has something to do with the way the program recognizes the text. Is there any way I can skip the step of having to physically print out the document?

Yes, I've also noticed that scanned documents are bigger, but this isn't a big problem for me (yet). Can CutePDF convert a Word file directly to a raster image file without having to print it out and re-scan? 150.174.104.75 14:54, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Actually, what I'm trying to do is convert the PDF files to PocketMod (booklet) form using the free convertor. This results in printing the text extra-small (but not too small for me to read). After scanning a document with the ScanSnap and making up a PocketMod that way, there's no problem. But if I convert from Word to a PDF, and then make up a PocketMod out of that, it takes at least 50 minutes to print 1 page. (Using PostScript didn't work for me...) 150.174.104.94 20:01, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
OK... I've got a Hotmail problem, thought I'd bring it to you guys.
I need to download attachments (Word files) to an email that I've received, but Internet Explorer says it has an error retrieving the file (long URL) from a remote IP (presumably the Hotmail server). It's really important that I get this to work.
Some points:

I want to buy some RAM for my desktop PC but there are so many different types available. What's the simplest way to find out which type of RAM I need for my computer? -- Ukdan999 14:50, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
My brain has random access memory. For example, if I try to recall the largest city in Sri Lanka, I come up with Peter Falk. :-) StuRat 05:37, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
Thanks, I downloaded that CPU-Z program and it says "Max Bandwidth" = PC3200 (200MHz). When I search dabs.com for PC3200 RAM (1GB) it still shows me over 30 different items ranging from £60 to £110. Will all of these do the same job and if so why the huge range of prices? -- Ukdan999 12:31, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
