And just think, that same two cents would have bought your Mom a rubber too.

Get a sense of humour.

NO. It's a CPU fan. Replace it immediately. If your motherboard doesn't have a CPU rev monitor (and a reliable one!) a dying fan could simply up and kark it - causing your CPU to quite literally fry itself if the "power-off on overheat" functionality is not working 100%. Don't risk it - re...

I'll be deeply humbled when 1.5 is released. Hell, I might even start playing Descent again. Thanks Kevin.

I want to state right now, that preventing eye-candy mods, such as Testi's table file, ship skins, and altered ship models is a VERY BAD THING. DO NOT PREVENT THESE FROM BEING USED IN ANY SERVER. If you want a level playing field, go to a LAN - because it's level NOWHERE ELSE. If I can't use my nice...

Kill it.

Have you got a hardware modem? HW Modems are known to ping lower (up to 20%), reduce loss and reduce CPU loading. Lucent Winmodem? Chuck it out - it aint for gaming... But until then, disable "Software Compression", make sure your FIFO buffers are 3/4 and full, put AT&F in the modem st...
