How KICK-ASS is your computer?

[Mr. dB]

You had a 933MHz in 1996? Strange...Intel was still trying to break 300Mhz in 1997. It was considered the shiznit to have a 233MMX back then. You seem to get bullshit called on a lot of posts.

I remember 300 MHz PIIs came out in September 1997, because I bought a 266 in August.

Yeah, the URL points to 300MHz PII's in 1997. 1996 tho, is what he was talking about.

I think it was more like October but you could be right. I started my first job on my 40th birthday in the August of 1997 and they gave me a PII 266. How I bleated when I heard that 300s were out.

Does anyone remember when Voodoo 1 cards made 3D start to happen?

I went with thier competition, the Rendition Verite cards, then id software made a special version of quake for the rendition cards. Life was good!

That was God saying porn is bad, and stop filesharing; He and the music industry are upset.

Do you have multiple hard drives in your machine? Maybe the other drive has a loose cable and isn't being picked up.

If you just have the one drive and your files are simply gone then first thought is that someone has hacked you, taken what they wanted and trashed the rest. Take a look in your recycle bin just in case you accidentally dropped them in there yourself.

Another possibility is that you've accidentally moved the whole folder to somewhere unexpected (easily done with Explorer). Do a file search for mp3 or jpg or whatever is appropriate for your missing files.
