These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

| Dear CRT It seems that your PC is so messed up they you are going to have to rebuild it from scratch. I guess that anything you try will just create another problem, so I think you are stuck. Save what data you can onto floppies or CDs then FDISK your HDs, making sure that your "C" is your boot drive, reformat, reload drivers and software then, finally, reload your data. Good Luck UK Bob |

| as BBBBBBoBBBByBBBBBoy has mentioned.... Sounds like it could be a basic 'house-keeping' problem... I mean, do you have any virtual drives... assuming that is the case ?????????????? Sounds like and 'expert-specialist-friend' has attacked your machine !!! Save ALL important PERSONAL stuff... Then, FORMAT your C:\ HDD with ONE and ONLY ONE partition... (unless you're really smart and you'll also try Linux !) You haven't exactly blinded us with details re: your computer, so we have to do a lot of guess work which is basically a wank for you and us, huh ??? Hit us with details !!! AND...... Keep your Program/Application stuff on your C: Drive.... put the files and folders that are personal, i.e. music, video, text.... geddit ?... on your 'auxiliary drives... It's a performance thing more than anything else... Come back for more help, right ? |

| the computer is a home built one. the motherboard is an asus p4c800-e deluxe and the processor is a p4 3.4 ghz. i think i figured it out , i forgot to install the chipset drivers....now that there installed it runs much smoother. the drive letters were fixed by a re-formatt and a re-installed OS. the dvd problem is fixed by the codecs i installed. yes xp dose have its pros and cons but it works satisfactory for me. if it gives me too much crap il install linux or win 2k . |

| Dear CRT As your PC is home made it is unlikely that anyone can offer any real help other than suggestions, and that is the problem with home built PCs if they go wrong you have no one to turn to for help. I would suggest that you go back to the motherboard's makers and ask what peripherals they recommend should be used with their product. Failing that, talk to people you bought your motherboard from, I am sure that they also build PCs to order and, as they are likely to have the experience, may know which bits will work well with your particular motherboard. Unfortunately, you are going to have to put in a lot of time, effort and probably money (buying new peripherals) to put your PC right, as I said in my first post, as soon as you solve one problem another will pop up. I originally home-built my first pentium PC but two years later, when it started to go wrong, I got so frustrated with the time, effort and money I had to spend to keep it going that I vowed "never again". The "savings" I had originally made with home building just evaporated. When it eventually died, I went down to PC World and bought a new computer. Therefore, if the new PC goes wrong then PC World will have the hassle of putting right. UK Bob |
