Some russians managed to get MGS3 Online working again, that'd be interesting as I never got to experience it when it was up officially.
Else we could do some LAN with XLink Kai if that still works. GT4/Midnight Club/SOCOM 3 anyone?

then my amazing hacking skills worked out because I had the damn thing loaded with freeMCboot before I even got the PS2 in the mail :v:

[QUOTE=esalaka;45391112]I've owned a fat PS2 since like 2004.
I prefer to have it hooked to a small CRT, though - looks nicer when the physical resolution is lower.
[editline]15th July 2014[/editline]
Though the CRT TV in question has a weird issue where I have to violently bend the circuitboard via the SCART connector to get the colours to show correctly. No obvious broken connections on the board, either.[/QUOTE]
I have that issue too, apparently its due to the connectors on the SCART socket itself being dodgy. Have to open the set up and solder them back into place which I cannot do. Something I cannot do and I'm not sure that someone else would do these days. Shame too because it's still a functioning piece of equipment otherwise and still useful to me watching DVDs.

Does capture area just stop working on Puush for anyone else? I use it once and then I have to restart Puush before it'll work again.

[QUOTE=Giraffen93;45389722]my 2500k has been on since 2011, and i haven't even reinstalled

I don't see any reason not to. And if you claim "waste of electricity" - Folding@home.
[QUOTE=fishyfish777;45392620]So after my i5-2500k reached its end at 4.5Ghz @ 1.37V I tried dialing it back 100Mhz and it's happy and stable a full .1V below.
Yeah, okay computer.[/QUOTE]
If you got the cooler try overclocking to 4.7ghz. Mine only did 4.6ghz but my brothers did 4.7ghz.

Had a taste of malware for the first time in years, and even then it was just a dumb browser adware that changes your homepage to some weird search engine.
[QUOTE=Akasori;45395966]Had a taste of malware for the first time in years, and even then it was just a dumb browser adware that changes your homepage to some weird search engine.[/QUOTE]
That garbage is so annoying. My PC, my sister's PC, and my fathers work desktop got the same search engine adware garbage at the same time. I use Avira, my dad uses AVG, and I forget what my sister uses. None of us installed anything at the time, and it just snuck in absolutely silent.
I don't understand how that shit works.
Driveby malware maybe? I remember installing ImgBurn on my desktop and all of a sudden my Chrome restarted to Conduit Search and had a myTunes (the most irritating toolbar) that affected all my browsers. Then I scanned and ended up with more than 100 infected files and a bunch of trojans.
The last time I had a virus was back in like 08. I was pretty knowledgeable about computers for my age(12) but I never had to deal with malware before.
Anyway, if I remember correctly I somehow got to a pop-up or something where it would come up with like 4 dialog boxes all saying stuff like "Free antivirus, your system is infected, please download" and all that. You know, the typical scareware deal.
Anyway, being a naïve kid I felt bad and thought "wow, these antivirus companies must really be desperate, I should give them a chance". :v:
Needless to say I learned my lesson, but it wasn't a big deal since I simply re-installed windows.
I already had Avira, but I don't remember it giving me any warnings when installing the obviously fake anti-malware.
[QUOTE=Demache;45389795]Technically at stock clocks a consumer CPU should have no issue staying on nearly 24/7. I've had a Pentium II, 4 and AMD Athlon on for longer with absolutely no issues. Your other components will die long before the CPU does.[/QUOTE]
Hell, I had an Athlon X2+ for some 6-7+ years. Since I don't turn my PC off at night, it had its fair share of uptime. I finally replaced it when it bottlenecked my system enough that upgrading to an i5-2500k yielded like an 8x FPS improvement in games. Now, though, my HD 6850 is the bottleneck, and affording a new GPU sucks :(

Explain why it still installed despite it being unchecked? Had to abandon it in favor of the suite my LG Blu-Ray burner to burn ISOs and rip some. I tend to rip install DVDs incase the discs decay or get scratched to the point of being unusable.
I feel like a take a very lenient approach to malware, I feel as if I'm technical enough to avoid getting it in the first place and so only run a scan whenever I feel like it. I think I'm just asking for an incident where I'll get caught with my trousers down.

then delete your chrome shortcut and make a new one
go to settings and check starting page / search engine[/QUOTE]
I did all that before and I guess Chrome had saved the page somewhere and restored it after updating.
[editline]15th July 2014[/editline]
Also for some reason if I close Chrome (Canary) from the red X and open it again, it opens the previous session. I have to close all tabs for it to start from blank.
