    Yeah I might un-attach my old Hard drive as I think that's what's slowing it down then install everything on the new one. (I have a feeling the UT installation is on the old one tho)

    generally just need a tidy out tonight I think and the new RAM to go in


    Internet here is slow... I blame rasta

    Sorted all that stuff out at the weekend luckily. Had to reinstall Windows on my external HD as I couldn't boot off it any more for some reason. Decided to partition it whilst I was at it, so should Windows for over again, all my backup data is separate when I reformat and reinstall. Not sure what updates I have for which games. I believe a patch server is available anyway, although Steam will still be a pain to update.

    Updates to game wise, I cant promise everything will be patched as for most of it is reinstalled from scratch!

    I will however make sure all Steam stuff is downloaded/updated cause thats a nightmare otherwise/will try and take all bandwidth available at the event.

    Bad news guys...

    Don't think the T-shirts are going to make it here on time... They got dispatched this morning but I don't think they'll make it. I have emailed them to see if they can put them on express but as such no response. Sorry.

    Once they arrive I can either send them to you, or if you want a social shirt too I'll bundle them together.

    Apols...

    Re: [H3XU5].lan - 15-17th August 2008 - Uttoxeter

    Quick question - which version of Desert Combat are we playing?

    1) correction: *Battlefield 1942* Patch v1.6 will be required Download @ Gamershell

    2) Desert Combat 0.7 Beta Full (final version from the original team) download here

    Optionally we can then install....Note: recommend downloading the installer for DC_final, but NOT installing until we confirm on the day which version we're playing

    3) Desert Combat Final (DC_Final) Download @ Fileplanet

    Re: [H3XU5].lan - 15-17th August 2008 - Uttoxeter

    Well i've just been spec'ing a new PC, so if there are going to be more of these I'll actually have a reasonable gaming machine to play on.

    Will a Quadro® NVS 290 and a Q9450 be any good at games?

    Moral support is always good, and it's prolly what I'm going to be doing!

    And I bet your PC is better than mine!

    More than welcome to join us on the next one... when we find out the dates.
