One more queston.

Its been a while since i upgraded memory on a computer, I know its simple once you know what type of memeory you have. My current computer uses DDR2. Is that the only thing I need to remember to know what memory is actually usable on my computer?

I run a 32 bit system. I think that means the max I can have is 3 gigs.

The maximum memory capacity on my motherboard is 2 gigs. Is that the total max I can go to, or is that the max per slot?

My motherboard is a Nividia Nforce 680i SLI and I have two 1 gig slots of memory installed with two slots left open.

Because I run my PC on my HDTV, I need to be set at a particular resolution to stop the image from cutting off. For most games the image is cut off even if I set the same resolution in game. The only way to get games to fit the screen is to go into the install directory, use notepad to open the file where the game resolution is set, and set the resolution there to match the one on my desktop.

Sometime this file is hard to track down so I wanted to know if anyone had any advice. Such as where and what type of file I should search for. Or if there is a general way to set a games resolution like this.

That's the main question of this post. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Now, if you think you can solve my other big problem, the one that no forum on the net has managed to solve thus far, then please continue to read.

I am using a Nivida Geforce 8800 GTS. This computer was a "custom built" floor model at CompUSA. When I first got it I remember the Nivida control panel having 2 options. One option was to stretch/skew the image so that it fit the parameters of the screen. The other option was to set the resolution. Once you used the first option to set the screen parameters you could change the resolution to whatever you wanted, and everything fit on the screen, like with a standard monitor. After updating drivers, there is only a resize desktop option, and when you stretch/skew the image to fit the screen, it auto sets a resolution for you, and any other resolution will cause the image to be cut off.

Where the hell did that other option go? It let me set the boundaries of my screen so that everything, games included, would fit on it. If that function exists and it works then why don't I have it anymore? Is there some sort of program that I can download that would do the same thing; force everything on the PC to fit within preset parameters? Also, rolling back drivers did not seem to help.

I just got a new PC game (Hearts of Iron 3). I start the game and it always crashes to the desktop when it's done loading. I know what the problem is but I don't know how to fix it.

My computer is currently hooked up to my TV. When I hooked up my old computer monitor the game ran fine. So it has something to do with running the game on my TV that causes it to crash to desktop.

Any tips on what the problem could be. I have already tried changing the resolution to the same as what was set on my PC monitor.

One more little detail I didnt get in the quick explanation I recived. There was actually a 3rd person, a 3rd pizza eater. So that person became and innnocent victim.

I have heard that my original was completely biased on the part of one party. I used "loaded language" and lead people to believe that one of the two parties was right and that the other was wrong.

For the sake of objectivity, I want say that I was considered to be favoring. But do you think the original post created bias, and if so who for?

Upon rereading you post I think items may count. You claim you can only cast 3rd level spells, and your modified charisma is 13. That may be your problem. Once again, I am assuming you are playing a sorcerer because I remember that being the only option in the game. I could be wrong.

It has been a while since I have played that game so I just have a few guesses on what could be wrong.

If I remember, there were only sorcerers and not wizards. I think it was if first 3rd edition video game and they were trying to shove the class on us. If that is the case, and you have a sorcerer, then your spellcasting ability is charisma. You can only cast a spell if you have a charisma of 10 + the spell level. I dont think bonuses from items count.

Otherwise, maybe you need to rest after gaining the spells so you character can "memorize" them

But like I said, I can hardly remember that game. I am just quoting 3rd edition rules here.

A couple of friends of mine had a petty little dispute, and we all agree that it would be nice to get some opinions from an objective viewpoint. If you don't want to weigh in on a petty dispute, or don't like the fact that we have decided to take it to an objective third party, then please don't feel obligated to actually read or respond.

The two friends had gone out to buy pizza and soda. They were sitting in the den, ready to start their meal. One friend (call him "The Pourer") had the soda bottle and was filling the cups. The other friend (call him "The Drinker") put his cup down to be filled. "The Pourer" has a habit of filling people drinks to the brim as a joke, often laughing and saying "say when" when doing so. He filled the cup until it the soda was brimming over the edge. "The Drinker then picked up the soda and drew it to him, but he did so over the pizza, causing some of the soda to spill on the pizza.

The Drinker's argument is that the soda was bound to spill due to the Pourer's shenanigans. And if it was going to spill, then he was going to make sure it was over the pizza the Pourer was going to eat, rather then all over his own floor or table. He considered it "poetic justice"

The Pourer's argument is that the he was in no way responsible for the spilling. The soda only spilled because the Drinker decided to pick it up and move it. He gave a possible alternative where the Drinker could have went around to the soda, got on his knees, and sipped it up before taking it.

The Drinker's rebuttal is that he shouldn't have to get down on his knees and sip it up like a dog. The other guy was being a jerk by filling it over the edge, and shouldn't be surprised or upset then the soda gets spilled.

I personally think the Drinker was wrong here. The guy pouring was being a jerk, but the drinker just acted like a baby by bringing the soda over the pizza, knowing it was too full not to spill. He should have just got down on his knees and sipped the soda on top before taking it.

But I am not considered objective, knowing both the parties involved and having preconceived notions about each of them. Sowe would like the pose the question to you. Who was being more of a jerk here.
