  1. You'll have to refer to the documentation that came with the dashboard you are using. I know in UnleashX I've had to manually edit in a menu item called "Emulators" and the directory it points to. When in doubt, RTFM!
  2. Is your internet still plugged in? To do Xbox > PC when you have an internet connection that is connected via Ethernet, you'll need 2 network cards. This is something that should be rather obvious. If you have the above noted and are hooked up properly. What is your network setup? Have you gotten any errors in Windows about conflicting IP addresses or any error for that matter?
  3. Cross-over cables are only for machinemachine connections. ie PCPC, XboxXbox etc If you're plugging into your hub/router/modem, you need a regular patch cable.
  4. When it comes to things I bought, I can do with them as I please. If I want to crack my game to run from a backup, then go ahead and try and tell me I can't or do something about it........I dare you. My Xbox is MINE! If I want to turn it into a toaster/coffee maker combo, try and stop me. Copyright laws are too far reaching. Once you legally OWN something, it should be yours to do with as you please. Theres too much of this "Liscenced to you" BS, even on hardware. NO! If I bought it, it's MINE! F**K you!
  5. Skilled? A retarded half-blind monkey can build a computer these days. Everything is color-coded, insert-1-way-because-it's-slotted, easy as f**k to install now. There's NO point in buying a pre-built machine anymore. You can get 2x the hardware, for 50% the cost by building it yourself. And like I said, a retarded half-blind monkey can do it.
  6. NEVERWINTER NIGHTS! OMFG! Such a terrible stats system for items/weapons/armor. The graphics are beautiful, but the gameplay is CRAP! I don't know how many times I've tried to get into it and I just can't get around the horrible system. And I paid full price for this when it came out. BLECH!
  7. I was getting used to the spring weather here in Canada (Approx 1 hour drive north of Toronto). It's been above 0 all winter up until 4 or 5 days ago, with not a single snowflake. Within the last 2 days we've gotten about 10 inches of snow, and right now it's -21! I went out to the store, and my lips were freezing together! Speaking of insane weather, look at these retards in Portland, Oregon. Now I hear cars are sliding while parked (Get some decent tires FFS) but why would you drive under these conditions! Pinball FTW - http://www.spikedhumor.com/articles/78880/...y_Icy_Road.html
  8. Always? SOTN and back were good. The latest games are queer as all hell and nothing like the originals on 8bit platforms.
  9. That would be Command & Conquer: Tiberium Wars btw. And if the same team that did Generals is doing it, it's probably going to suck ass on every aspect but the visuals. C&C Generals is ASS! For me it would have to be..... a Metroid game that doesn't have a suck-ass storyline like Prime, back to the kind of storyline that doesn't even need telling, like there was in the first 3 games. Not that the 2 Prime games aren't good, I love em but the story is a crap off-shoot just like Fusion (Which also sucks in that regard). I'd also like to see another Star Wars Republic Commando game, on a grander scale. Huge environments, vehicles and the ability to command your team in more ways. And maybe a Castlevania game that doesn't have some queer-ass storyline. Simple b!tches! Castlevania has become the dark anime BS with all the goofy gay characters and strange crap in it.
  10. You MUST go into the retail MS dash and enable 480p/720p/1080i there. I've found that setting this from any dashboard/app doesn't work as it should. Also know that if you enable all 3, the highest possible setting will be used by default unless you can specify explicitly in the app you run. As for playing DVDs in 720p with the MS DVD kit, no. I suggest you just use 480p, theres no need for 720p. I see no real difference between the 2 when playing DVDs. (Then again, I don't own very many or really watch them). Make sure you're using the latest build of XBMC. As for making FBAXXX run in 480p, if there isn't an option, there is a patching program out there that will patch XBEs to run in 480p. Not sure what it's called, but I'm sure you'd find it if you look on Xbox-Scene.
  11. Get back to me when high end cards aren't $800 for something thats just a little bit faster with a little more memory. Fanboys F**KING SUCK, and are the ONLY reason that GPU makers have a severe lack of innovation, yet can still get people to pay $800 for a video card that requires a 2nd power supply.
  12. The SNES was undeniably the more powerful system. Still, I love my Mega Drive more. I was just poking fun anyway, I love em both for their unique games. The 16bit era was the best EVAR!
  13. Well that's because the Genesis has to retain more of it's colors, because the SNES has more to begin with! SNES is superior, for more reasons than it's larger color pallette. EVERY port to both systems, was superior on the SNES. Proven fact.
  14. Wow, this isn't blatent advertising. If it wasn't for the fact that it wasn't an "informative" post, your email address is a Hong Kong one, and that site is hosted on servers located in Hong Kong..........I wouldn't have guessed you're trying to use our forums to push your store or one you make money in doing so. Not to mention all 4 of your posts are just like this. You aren't here for any reason BUT this. BYE! BANNED!
  15. I love my Dreamcast, but I couldn't care less for any new titles. Every one in the last few years has been a shmup, and I am so sick of seeing the last clinging titles being all the same. If something other than shmups were to be released, I might give a half a $hit.
  16. Yup, they're simply linking to external resources that they don't endorse. It's a means to protect themselves from being sued if something goes wrong with said resource.
  17. Less is more! Less heat! But if you must get something for one of your drive bays, get a IR Reciever and remote thingy. You know, something like this: http://www.sundialmicro.com/soundgraph_imo...l_1705_763.html
  18. I have 512MB of ram and I use a 1GB pagefile on a dedicated partition on my 2nd drive. 2GB isn't "too high", but I would suggest monitoring it's usage, as theres no need for one larger than you need. Your pagefile can fragment just like any other file, and the larger it is the harder it will be to defrag (You have to defrag it at boot). Also a larger pagefile can mean that your disk is accessing a wider range on the disc and just like any other access, it will take longer and can actually hurt performance. I'd suggest you fire up your most intesive program, such as a higher end game, hit the Windows Key to force it to minimize. Then open the task manager (CTRL+ALT+DEL) and see "PF Usage" under the performance tab. Then adjust your pagefile accordingly, with a bit of breathing room.
  19. EVERYONE needs to realize there is alot more to an internet connection than meets the eye, and for the most part anything you install to "optimize" your internet connection won't do a damn thing. These tools will fix any issues caused by system configuration, like MTU Window and flow on your end, but otherwise it's OUT OF YOUR HANDS! There are several causes of slowdowns in your service regardless of what service you use. 1: For Dialup/DSL users, phone lines need to be in top order. Old lines, line noise and length of line/line quality can seriously cripple your connection. Don't use a 100' line extension if you only need 25' to reach the jack! Is your telephone making the slightest background noise/fuzz? Have the phone company check/fix your lines if possible, line noise is the number 1 culprit when it comes to poor QOS. 2: A backbone server on the internet may be down or suffering from any number of issues. There isn't a damn thing you can do about this but wait. If that backbone is in line with the connection you're trying to establish, you'll have to "hop" elsewhere causing things to take longer to go back and forth. You can see just how many "hops" your connection is taking to get to the source by using "tracert google.com" in a command prompt for example. Right now I've got 13 hops, which isn't bad. If you're seeing over 25, you can bet theres a problem somewhere, which again IS OUT OF YOUR CONTROL! 3: # of users on the server your connection is sourced from CAN be a problem, but usually isn't. ISPs hate hearing complaints from alot of people, bad for business. Oh and btw, having DSL doesn't magically make you immune to "overcrowding" and you aren't "sharing" your connection with cable like advertising would have you believe. Thsoe differences in connection types are a MYTH! Problems of this nature are your ISPs fault at their servers, PERIOD! Oh and again, you can't do anything about this (Besides call and complain, but can you prove it?) 4: System tools to help "optimize" your connection can actually harm it. Be sure of what you're doing, look up info before making changes some program tells you will help make your connection faster. 99% of the programs out there that claim they can do this, are fradulent. 5: Got a computer like most people out there? Loaded with more bloatware and garbage than you need? CLEAN IT OUT! You'd be surprised at the ammount of programs that run in the background for whatever reason, that eat your bandwidth. Have 5 of these kind of programs running and you wonder why your connection is slow as dirt. 6: Don't allow ANY program to use unlimited upload speed. You are a goddamn idiot if you can't grasp why this is bad. How the hell is your browser or whatever other program you're using, supposed to communicate with a server to REQUEST if theres no bandwidth to do so? 7: Use some common sense, if you think something could impact your computers performance in a negative way of any kind, find an alternative!
  20. Well for starters, you need a cart adapter, as the cart is different in shape. That or you need to cut the protrusions on your NTSC SNES to get the Jap carts to fit in, or open your SNES......your choice (I'd go with an adapter for aesthetics). Then you can simply pop a Japanese game in and play. This doesn't work with PAL games though, as all 3 regions have regional lockout chips. The only reason you can play JP on US, is because the regional chips are the same. If you want to play PAL games as well, I suggest you get your hands on a Game Genie. Once you remove the plastic top on the connector, you can plug any cart into it and the region protection is nullified by the Game Genie because of the way it works. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Nintend...tainment_System about 1/3 down the page for some more detail.
  21. You know, I can't wait until someone buys one of those used games only to find out their CD key is in use, and then provide the publisher with proof it belongs to them and you get your ass smacked down. That's worse than outright piracy, you're stealing from a fellow gamer.......you suck.
  22. I think you've done smoked yourself retarded. But maybe you could try it Vicks Vaporub style, and put some THC oil in a vaporizor. lol I don't have a problem with anyone doing any drug they want, provided it doesn't affect anyone else in ANY way whatsoever. If you're going to get high, stay the flock home. Don't go out somewhere and act like a goddamn moron in public, just because you aren't causing trouble doesn't mean you aren't troublesome. It's just like being drunk in public, you could be so nice to everyone, but you're still a drunk clumsy idiot.
  23. Why? Because it's against the rules to link to ANYTHING that contains copyrighted material, and I know not of any torrent site that doesn't host torrents attributed to such. We went 100% legit and copyright following, not 95%.
  24. This news is about 2 weeks old, and talk about BROKEN flockING TELEPHONE! He was giving a security speech at a conference. The Wii hasn't been hacked and the "THEORY" is just that, a "THEORY". I'd expect this kind of crap from some 14 year olds silly assed website, but not here..........
  25. RockNESx for me, I'm a feature man and no other emu boasts as many features.
