That's the idea of testing. Messing around with something, to find out how
it works, where it doesn't work, how to make it better, etc. It's good to
have some fun while doing so.

[View Quote] In other words, you have a crappy computer? Any decent computer can handle a
load of 100% 24h a day, week after week. If not, something is very wrong. By
the way, dealing with a huge swap file is *never* going to max your CPU out.
Disks are very slow compared to the CPU, so if you are doing disk work, most
of the time the CPU is waiting (and therefore not generating much heat).

That's bull shit at best. Software is not going to destroy hardware, unless
the hardware is already broken.

> I haven't really read any warentys because my overclocking habits
> void them anyway

Ah, so you overclock your computer? In that case, it's entirely your fault
when something goes wrong. And again, if you overclock your CPU so much it
breaks when you use it completely, you did something wrong anyway.
Non-overclocked CPU's will *NOT* break at 100%.

Software can completely mess up other software. In that way it can be
damaging. But it's not going to damage your computer.

Eep makes up with technical knowledge. Therefore many people don't want him

It might when people start asking technical questions.

It has been like that for a long time. They closed the newsgroups for
tourists to prevent it, but it didn't help (and I'm glad it didn't, I think
the ng's should be open for tourists so they can come here with questions
and stuff)

There are always people shouting at each other, and as long as it doesn't
get too annoying, it's ok for me. It works quite counterproductive when you
are forced to be nice when you are mad. As far as I'm concerned, it's still
ok in these newsgroups.

Right on. On the other hand, we can also try to make the annoying people
less annoying... might help them too, and maybe they start to add value when
they grow up.

Dont't depend on it that his ISP will kick him off directly when an abuse

People posting useless stuff is one thing. But people complaining about it

So we may only post questions here? Now that would be boring...

Maybe you don't care. But that certainly doesn't mean other people won't
care either. If someone feels like talking about going to school or
something, that's ok in this newsgroup. After all, it is the community
newsgroup. If you think it's not worth reading, just don't read it. If it's
a really stupid post, you can complain. But it's not as if this newsgroup
must be productive only.

Reminder - to all the newbie twits: take your shit ELSEWHERE

Jan 24, 2001, 4:21pm
When you make a HTML message with OLX, your text is put in twice. Once
without HTML, and once with HTML. The HTML formatting usually makes the part
with HTML 1.5 to 2.5 times as big as the non-HTML part. So, if you make 1kb
of text and post it as html, it becomes about 3kb. The header itself takes
up another kb or so. If you make large posts, or a lot of posts, this can
add up quite quickly.

Use a decent defrag tool. The default windows defrag tool is a slow piece of
crap. Norton has a good one. But if you insist on using the windows defrag,
NEVER let it rearrange the programs on your disc, this slows down
enormously.

Erm, WHO exactly are you replying to? Would you mind trying to actually
reply to the post you are replying to next time? You don't even seem to be
replying to me, yet you replied to my post.

[View Quote] It does take up a lot of space after a while, and it can slow things down a
bit. Therefore it's a good idea to wipe it every now and then.

> as for reformating i supose you will try to tell me that this does damage
to
> your hd??

No idea who you think would try to tell you that, but I didn't even saw
someone make a hint in that direction in this thread.

> guess what i know for a fact that it does no such thing period.

Normal formats won't, they just write data to your disk. A low-level format
can do damage, as every HD manufacturer can tell you. And even they don't
really "do" damage. Every modern HD has bad pieces of surface. These are
detected by the manufacturer, and the HD can work around them transparently.
But a low-level format can accidentally mark some of the bad pieces as good,
and therefore screw up your HD. By the way, if you actually start seeing bad
sectors, this means the surface of the HD is damaged so much at that point
that it couldn't work around it anymore.

> as for backing up you system files thats foolish.
> reason lets see you back up your hd and systme files regualry.
> then you start getting crashes and restore you most recent back up of your
> system files guess what you just restored the cause.

Or maybe you didn't. If you seriously back up everything, you can always
restore multiple dates. Suppose you install a program, and start getting
problems just after. If uninstalling the program doesn't work, you can just
put a backup in place you made before you installed the program. Putting a
complete backup in place costs way less time than formatting your HD,
reinstalling windows, reinstalling all drivers windows missed (sound card,
joystick, TV card, video card, network card), reinstalling all programs and
messing with the windows settings so they are back to what you wanted.

> back up down loaded programs only the installers and zips your docs and
> maybe your ini and config files.
> never back up system files less you want back in the same deal again.

Do your backup work right and you won't have that problem.

> the hd.

"fix" bad area's? No it won't. It will only mask them. And if you have bad
area's format detects, it's time to see whether you can trade it in for a
working one.

Lame argument. There are people who drive cars for over 25 years, and don't
have the slightest idea of how an engine works. If you touched your first
computer 3 days ago, it's quite certain that you aren't experienced. On the
other hand, if you are working with computers for 6 years or so, that
doesn't mean you are experienced.
