    Thanks DDP and GM. I was stumped for a while trying to figure out how it was done for the longest time.

    GM,
    Ambiguous? Here I thought you wanted him to look in the forum rules, link to this message, conform, or beat himself repeatedly with blunt objects! ROFLMSOAO!!

    GM,
    Thanks buddy. That's how it looked after a couple of Real Canadian LaBatt's Blues! Moving on to sillier things, this is from the "What a Waste of good components" Dept!

    [​IMG]

    Decent CPU, Decent hard drive, decent memory, all served up on a $39 ECS motherboard! No adjustments in the bios, and Intel on board graphics. What a waste! LOL!!

    Russ :)

    On the browser discussion a few day, Firefox 3 is much too unstable for me, I use google chrome mainly for that reason. It crashes sometimes but FF3 can sometimes crash more than 20-30 times a week, which is really annoying. Chrome is probably on average the slowest browser I've used for opening pages simply because it only has a 60-70% success rate, the other 30% it will get stuck on 'connecting' or 'resolving proxy' and you will have to hit F5, something I can't get firefox or ie to replicate, at least not nearly as often. However, I have no bugs with how big posts will fit on the screen that I notice.

    I currently use FF 3.5 and ie8 and I usually get my crashes on ie8. I know for many pages ie8 would take a full 30 seconds before finally being able to open the page (connection with cable with 10 Mbps).


    With FF8 I never wait more than 5 seconds for a page to load.

    Firefox 3.5.3, works well. Rarely crashes. Chrome, I don't think its crashed once. IE8, runs a heck of a lot better on 7, then it did XP! Go figure though LOL! I think it was designed with vista/7 in mind. However I don't run IE8. Haven't ran it since beta release. I do recall liking certain abilities that NO other browser has offered :O

    Good point actually, ie8 in Win7 is tolerable, in XP it's damn useless.
