Default All things Computing!

In light of the few threads on computing and other associated topics I thought I might make a new thread for all those topics. If it becomes popular I will happily pin it at the top

I use to be addicted to COD2 (call of duty 2), but I lost it when i formatted and never bothered to get it back, and im saving money so I havent got COD4, but im hanging out for a new online game. Aside COD2 thats about the only game i really played, and Far cry, but never played online. I was obsessed with far cry, It was so intense and heaps of fun.

Is it possible to get a section silimar to Geeky Bits on fordmods. I asked before but got knocked back. It seems silly that we all use comps to read this site, but we have to put stuff in the pub becuase comps don't have a home.

It is so much harder to track through one thread then to have heaps of threads for something like computers.50LTRv8

in reality, its a car forum, designed for car things... if you need computer help, there are 1billion forums on comps...

i see where you coming from but its been knocked back SOOOO many times...

I plan to build a media centre... mine will be low spec in size but will draw from my data array across the lan so i wont need massive drives or nothing for it... should be able to do it fairly cost-less....
