If I understand you correctly rogue you're got two networks - a public and a private - and a system in the middle connecting the two together, like this: Net1 (Private) <-> Computer (Gateway) <-> Net2 (Internet/Public) Because there are two different networks involved your PC will have to...

To the best of my knowledge this is server-side or built-into the game. There isn't anyway to bypass it unless you can get your ISP to give you multiple IP's. Even though your two systems have different internal IP's, your router only has one external IP and it's going to look like both your...

I've noticed this at a few LAN parties, but it isn't that big of a deal. As soon as you re-spawn your vision returns. Or at least that has been my experience.

Brick - yeah, that's something you can totally do. Before the days of high speed leased lines, many places used multiple dial-up lines as WAN links. The best part? Windows supports it out of the box - here's a link to a MS KB article on setting it up http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307849...

If it says explorer is infected that means the virus/malware is currently running. It doesn't USUALLY mean the file itself is infected - get rid of the virus and explorer.exe will usually show up as clean. If you're still having trouble, download and run Hijack this (get it here -...

That sounds like a failing hard drive to me, I'd run a disk diagnostic utility that will report S.M.A.R.T. or self-test errors. I"ve heard bad or failing HD's make some pretty interesting noises, everything from minor clicks to full-on screeching. Seatools is free and does a pretty good job -...

I love AMD to death, however they're a little behind right now. The AM2 X2's and FX's are amazing processors and are pretty good on power consumption, but the Core 2 Duo's are cheaper, faster and you can overclock the snott out of 'em. Hopefully AMD will stun as all in the near future with a...

Ouch dude...no DSL, no cable? Sounds like wireless is your only option. That's a real rape of a deal, I can't believe they can get away with that.

DSL pwns Cable. Period. I just had to switch back to cable and I want to cry. If you can get DSL - get it. I've been back on cable for 2 weeks and I've already had to deal with service outages and poor performance. When I had DSL I NEVER had service issues and the performance was amazing...

Oh man....this could hurt my time on DoD....any rumors on a release date? Man I love old-school game comebacks!

Vista doesn't NEED a hardcore syste anymore than Linux does, BUT you will have a completely different experience with both OS's on sub-par hardware. People like to talk about how they can run Linux on ancient hardware. Yes, you can run Linux on an old 486DX2 with 64MB of RAM, but once you...

I'm baaaaaaaaack! I'm not done moving yet, but the computer is set back up and Internet has been hooked up. Played tonight for the first time in like 3 weeks - it felt great! Hope to see you guys in the servers on a regular basis again.
