    Hark mine woes and weep!

    Ok, this is basically wild mass guessing, and comes with little to no solutions, but ... You said it's both a wireless and wired connection? I'm assuming you're talking about your Modem/Router, and not your PC. Even so, make sure your PC doesn't have a built in Wireless, and if it does, turn...

    Hardware help?

    I'm hardly an expert troubleshooter, but since this problem started with a BIOS update, I doubt bothering with Windows is going to help you at the moment. In all likelyhood, something went wrong with that update. Didn't install properly, or perhaps you got the wrong version or something like...

    Desert Story short film

    Remaining off-topic : Tomorrow will mark the one year anniversary since her last attempt. A rather spectacular failure, really. Dead bystanders 'n such. She did make sure the flunky that carried out that botched attack didn't leave the hospital alive, though. -Gerko, making up conspiracy...

    Brotherhood of Steel in Fallout: New Vegas (and OXM)

    Damage Threshold, Armor Class and Damage Resistance. But yeah, I can see why J.E. Sawyer disliked it. The way Armor Class worked was rather iffy. The only example of where it does seem to "work" is when you compare Leather Armor and Metal Armor. Leather with higher AC and lower DT/DR, and...

    Design Lesson 101 - Fallout/Fallout 2

    You're thinking of the "Skilled" trait : +5 Skill points per level. (And a +10% on all skills flat in Fallout 1. May or may not have given the +5 skill points per level as well, can't remember) and that does lower the perk rate. Not a very popular trait, because everyone loves perks. Maybe...

    Photoshop assisance

    Hrmmm ... Now, I don't know much about DPI, PPI and such, but wouldn't pixels translate directly ? Especially if the printing size can be stretched and such. So, um ... 20 by 20 inch, huh ? That's ... ~9750 pixels per inch. I think that's high enough. Normal values are around 600 or so, right...

    While you're dying I'll be still alive...

    So uh ... how is that reality going to affect the ... um ... 9 year long ban on the discussion of FOOL, anyway ? Might be interesting to open that can of worms. -Gerko, remembers at least one Fallout 3 forum that had banned Fallout Online discussions back in '99.

    NMA Brotherhood of Steel Writing Contest

    Huh, even if you'd discount Fallout 2 entirely as non-canon, there would still be a GECK. It was in the manual for the first game. -Gerko, will think about entering.

    Bethesda Fallout bundles

    Short Answer : No -Gerko, but a Fallout 1+2+Tactics pack should be available someplaces. No connection to Bethesda, though.

    The Mass' Effect on gaming or HOT ALIEN LESBOZ SEKS!

    Now I haven't kept up with this game much, (Don't have anything to play it on, in any case) but I do seem to remember a video trailer where the dialog choices expand to full lines once actually selected. That is, Sheperd won't use moron-speak - Just the description of the choices are. Which...

    Fallout 3 dev diary

    I have no idea where this "it wasn't worn on the wrist!" idea comes from. *glares at Morbus* In fact : -Gerko, and possibly, the non-PIPBoy interface is from the SimTek 5000!

    Shacknews: No Instructions Included

    Hot Fun and Cold Fun Recipes From Your Friend Computer! Ugh, you lazy bums. You know the manual also came as a .pdf on the CD, right ... ? No, no need to run off and find your disc(s). No need to go hunting the files section of NMA or hop onto replacementdocs.com for a copy either...

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    Sort of, yes. There's a "Cumulative Mods and Fixes" thread up in the General Modification forum. I think they're up to 5.0.4 there. Might want to check it out. -Gerko, not really playing anything at the moment.

    BioShock on Game Videos

    "And now on BBC, Life On Mars, in colour." -Gerko, "but that was seventies"

    PipBoy2000 Winamp skin

    Ooh. Like that. Nope, sorry. It's a Winamp Classic skin, haven't even looked at Modern skins yet, so I doubt you're going to get that functionality. -Gerko, probably should look into Modern skins, but hey ...
