Jawbreaker

Do we get to pick the time?

I've been unable to get my superanti spyware to install updates, and I have something that keeps re-directing me when I click on links in searches. I have tried to download other free-anti malware/spyware programs, and NONE of them will download, all I get are Unable to connect messages. I think something is blocking my downloads.

Should I upgrade the memory? vid card? processor?

Ok cool. I figured I was probably ok since It certainly didn't feel like I was doing anything wrong, but that's always up for debate when other people (especially the devs) can be involved.

I have a lvl 50 dm/elec brute, buzzsaw build. He's become ratherlackluster to me lately, I think between the slight animation time nerf to DM a few issues ago and the fact that I'm enjoying other toons more these days.

So, I started trying to test him, to see what the extremes of his survivability are, and of course, what better place to do that but AE?

My first mission in this "survivor" arc is full of nothing but Neuron robots since they do a ton of enrgy damage, and he's very resistant to it. I plan on changing the enemies in each successive mission until the last bunch are what he's weakest against.

But, I'm only in the first mission, so I've tweaked it to a point where a ton of neuron robots will spawn, minions, lieuts and bosses, with patrols and ambushes. there are ons of them on the screen, and i get them taunted and herded to a corner so i can melee them. At this point, i'm hitting my ter 9 and hoping to finish off this mad mob of murderous mechanoids before the tier 9 drop, as well as any patrols or ambushes that my take notice of us.

I am certainly not wiping out these huge mobs with any kind of speed, since i'm a buzzsaw build made to focus on single target dps, and the only aoes i have are my aura, dark consumption and Opressive gloom. This first mission can take me about 45minutes to an hour to complete, and maybe I earn a couple hundred tickets upon completion, i haven't really looked at it since that wasn't what i created it for.

I don't want to get nailed for making a farm, but I do enjoy this insane "Robotron on PCP" challenge.

I had dropped about 200 pieces on the market this weekend on a toon i deleted.

I'd guess something ala the Legacy chain pre-power customization, something made to LOOK like a new power.

I'm wondering if any unused transfers we have will stick around for future use or will they go poof?

Hmm, hadn't tried that. Let's see...

I'm having an isssue on a non-gaming laptop. It runs Vista. I attempted to update my AVG free version the otehr day, and got a message saying it had not been installed properly initially. So i tried to uninstall it, but I get nowhere. It just never uninstalls, acts like I never clicked the uninstall button.

I've tried downloading any number of ant-spyware/virus tools, even Hijackthis. Anything I download never shows up, though. It downloads, and when I go to the folder I download to, there's no file for the program. Is something blocking my downloads? I don't know what to do next.

Nope. Couldn't care less.

Is it live yet?




How bout now?





Now?









Please?

Just wondering about this, with near perma-eclipse, is it worth taking tough/weave for anything other than IO mules?

The Chamberwraith

Oh I'm in! Though i may not be able to get on this week.

I think It'll be an Ill/Rad, since i've been wanting one for a while now.

***EDIT*****

Nevermind, I got it running again, lets see how it goes! Does anyone know if they've fixed the issue yet?

Thanks again gang. I attempted that method, but the problem still remains: I cannot get my keyboard to work, so therefore when it says TO BOOT FROM CD PRESS ANY KEY, it just defaults to attempting to start windows normally.
This is frustrating to say the least.

Thanks for help, Rodoan! I tried it, but the issue is that when it gets to the screen with the type written screen, the keyboard is dead so I am unable to select or type anything, so it just restarts Windows normally in 30 seconds, and goes back into the loop.

I turned off my computer last night, and got the "Install new updates before shutting down" prompt, so I did.

Today when i got home from work, I turned on my rig and it went to the screen that talks about windows being improperly shut down last time, and gives the options of starting with "safe mode","last known working config", "start windows normally" etc. At this time my back-lit keyboard is not lit, so I cannot scroll up to any of the choices, so it automatically defaults to "start windows normally".

Which brings me back to this screen again, the only difference is there is a quick flash of a blue screen before it gets there. It's been running in this cycle for about a half hour now, Hard shutting makes no difference either.

I can get my keyboard to work for a second when it prmpts me to hit TAB for the post screen, or DEL for setup. Then the keyboard goes dark. Howver I have no technical knowledge whatsoever so I wouldn't even know what to do on those screens.

You fine, kind, brillaint Heroes and villains have helped me numerous times in the past, I only pray that you can talk me through this one!

...Hopehope.......

I have so many, i just chose one at random.
