"Themes" - Enable it and it wont look like Windows 98!

"Windows Audio" might be disabled?

Have a look again. A majority of the applications have "stopped" and the only way to get things back to normal. and the "theme" is to get them running again, and I can't seem to find the option for that.

I'm having performance problems on Call of Duty + Call of Duty United Offensive. So a gamer recommended to run "Msconfig" and try and disable *stop* some of the applications that may be causing to run the games a little jittery. It runs fine on COD 2, just on those two games.

Unfortunately, it kinda backfired on me. And a majority of the drivers have "stopped" Hence pic 1:



Now the pc still works, but as you can see the windows look like its in safe mode, iinstead of its xp windows. And a majority of the programs have stopped, and that includes audio. *winamp program claims that there isnt a sound card installed* But because of the outcome, it prevents me from playing games, or listen or watch clips *depending what file they are*

I tried loading it all up, as if nothing happened, but unfortunately, there is no change whatsoever, and I am stuck in this position at the moment.



Can anyone assist on how I can fix this wee problem?

Thanks

He was found guilty over his role in the killing of 148 people in the mainly Shia town of Dujail in 1982.

His half brother Barzan al-Tikriti was also sentenced to death, as was Iraq's former chief judge Awad Hamed al-Bander

Former vice-president Taha Yassin Ramadan got life in jail and three others received 15 year prison terms.

Another co-defendant, Baath party official Mohammed Azawi Ali, was acquitted.

When called to court, Saddam Hussein, dressed in his usual dark suit and white shirt and carrying a Koran, walked to his customary seat and sat down.

Judge Rauf Abdel Rahman ordered Saddam Hussein to stand while he read out the verdict, but the former president defiantly refused to do so and had to be moved from his seat by court attendants.

As the judge began reading the death sentence Saddam Hussein shouted out "Allahu Akbar!" (God is Greatest) and "Long live Iraq! Long live the Iraqi people! Down with the traitors!"

The former leader looked shocked and furious as the sentence was passed, and continued to shout, denouncing the court, the judge and the US-led occupation force in Iraq.

But the BBC's world affairs editor John Simpson said that after his tirade, as he was led away from the courtroom, Saddam Hussein seemed to have a small smile on his face.

"It was as if he was thinking 'I've come here and done what I intended to do'," our correspondent said.

Celebratory gunfire

Shortly after the verdict was announced celebratory gunfire could be heard across Baghdad.

The whole city of six million people has been placed under a 12-hour daytime curfew that bans all vehicle and pedestrian traffic amid fears of violence from Saddam Hussein's Sunni Arab supporters.


THE SENTENCES

* Saddam Hussein, former Iraqi president: death by hanging
* Awad Hamed al-Bander, Chief Judge of Revolutionary Court: death by hanging
* Barzan Ibrahim al-Tikriti, Saddam Hussein's half-brother: death by hanging
* Taha Yasin Ramadan, Iraqi vice-president: life sentence
* Abdullah Kadhem Ruaid Senior Baath official: 15 years
* Abdullah Rawed Mizher, Senior Baath official: 15 years
* Ali Daeem Ali, Senior Baath official: 15 years

The government cancelled all army leave and the city's civilian airport has been closed.

Three nearby provinces, including Salahuddin, which contains Saddam Hussein's hometown of Tikrit, are also under curfew.

Almost three years since Saddam Hussein was captured, soaring sectarian violence has brought Iraq to the brink of civil war.

Few Iraqis think the trial verdict will ease conflict, the BBC's Andrew North in Baghdad says.

Even those Iraqis who want to see their former leader dead do not believe his execution would make things any better, our correspondent says.

'Victors' justice'

Many critics have dismissed the trial as a form of victors' justice, given the close attention the US has paid to it.

Lawyers for Saddam Hussein have also accused the government of interfering in the proceedings - a complaint backed by US group Human Rights Watch.

And the former leader's lawyers have attacked the timing of the planned verdict, which comes days before the US votes in mid-term elections.

US President George W Bush's Republican Party is at risk of losing control of Congress in part because of voter dissatisfaction over its handling of the Iraq conflict. In a televised speech on Saturday, Nouri Maliki, Iraq's Shia Arab prime minister, said he hoped Saddam Hussein would get "what he deserves" for "crimes against the Iraqi people".

Ahead of the verdict Mr Maliki called for calm, saying that Iraqis should mark it in a way that "does not risk their lives".

Saddam Hussain has been sentenced to death by hanging within 30 days.

More news still to follow.

That's "aura" aka RudolfR back on, and boasting about my msn saying "goodbye to your msn" Big whoop!

what about the secret question thingy?

What secret question?

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

if you go to the msn website you can get the forgot my password, they email it to you, you log in and change it ASAP

That was the case, but unfortunately I have to wait, as the "sign in" failed as someone else is trying to log in, or I tried to log in too many times.

Quote from P2M Smart :

Hi all

We at p2m are holding (as we always do) a sunday lfs event.

This sunday(5/11/06) is a kyoto gp event, using the fox car.

Anyone interested on this event post here

http://www.pedal2metal.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=2074

I can attend the 45 forward, but not the 45 reverse. Would that be ok for you?

Quote from troy :

did you try lost password already on msn? didnt see the replay so far
but looks like you had bad luck next time take a secure password
then such stuff shouldnt happen

Yeah, and as of now my account is temporary unavailiable.

It's not a big loss anyway , but it can affect other members if not dealt with.

I bring with regret, that 2 LFS members of the community are named and shamed, for their hacking outside the LFS community, and for Ramming.

Normally I'd put this into the wreckers barricade and cd league forum due to where the event took place, but this situation exceeds their expectations.

I have lost my msn account, due to password change, so I can't get in. They threated to change my "sucking" password, and succeded.

These two replays will indicate their behaviour on LFS. They are also hackers. As explained from above. As of now, I am trying back my e-mail account. Which is becoming a struggle, as they keep changing the password themselves.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=G6E6JLK8 This link represents what they are going to do to my account, and how poor their ramming driving is.

To a cinema near you!! *points*

^^ Yup, my mistake, I forgot the clocks were going backwards.

I'm afraid you'll have to count me out for that, I won't be able to attend by then unless it was 9pm.

Have a good one tonight.

I'd be happy if it was on at 9pm, but sadly that wont be the case .

Just say that you're leaving and joining a new team, don't take the piss out of them and use it to excuse your shitty behaviour

I hope you last longer in this team and treat them better, maybe you'll learn from your mistakes.

Agreed.

Quote from faster111 :

General lee why have you not sent a pm back to me becuase i want to join your team.

I thought you were in the pothead team? Holy crap I understood what you said! :P

Quote from nikka :

Sure, aaaand done!

Oh, and Monsieur Mule, you're in too.

I'm aware of that, but I'm based in Scotland, so I'm probably an hour ahead *just by comparing the lfs times*

I'm in. According to LFS, race is on at 9PM GMT. So that is the time I'm aiming for. I got a big day ahead of me, so if I don't turn it, it probably means I'm still very busy.

But count me in for that defo, until further notice .

Quote from traxxion :

Hurray!

You sound like you are happy for me to be away from 1st :P (jk!)

Quote from danowat :

Geeky, nerdy, sad, whatever the want to call it, do you think it is?.

The reason I ask this is due to the following........

Firstly, I must say that I enjoy racing LFS, I don't race anywhere near as much as I used to, mainly due to the fact I was in a relationship that was plainly rubbish, and because of this I used to spend a bit of time on the computer.

Now, I split up with my ex in April, and started "living", which meant less time for LFS, I got a new girlfriend, the weather was good, I past my bike test, blah blah, etc etc, you get the idea.

Now as the weather is getting worse, the nights are drawing in, my girlfriend has a new job that means she has less spare time, and I find myself sometimes with an evening to fill, so I fill it with LFS.

Recently Kalle announced the UFR/XFR league, which I really fancy taking part in, I thought I had thursday free, but was informed yesterday that my girlfriend is off, and was coming over, so I was left with a quandry, do I tell her, or do I not take part.

The worse thing about it was, that I was SOOOOO embaressed to tell her that sometimes I virtually race with people on the internet in this game.

I told her, and she was fine, just means I will be on the PC for an hour while she is over, no real big deal, but I found it really hard to "admit" that I did such a thing as LFS illepall.

What would YOU have done, do YOU get embarressed if people find out you do race LFS?.

It's probably more aimed at the older LFS user

Would be interested to hear your thoughts.

Dan,

I don't feel embarrassed. I tell girls that, and they just nod. It's a hobby I like doing, and I get to spend time with great drivers, such as Void, Birder, Zyber, Jakg'z (laughs)

Besides, even though its a simulation, it does help your driving in reallife.

Quote from faster111 :

??? what you doing ven hope this is a joke its up to jakg and nutty_boy what they do ect not you.

It's Grammar boy!

Like what the lads said, read ALL of the above posts before jumping to conclusions.

Quote from Zyber :

Ty nice to see you again Dave
hows it going m8 ?

We'll talk on msn, dont want to spam this topic

It's very easy for me. I live next door to the English .

Lol, you silly billy, how did you manage that?

Although I got stabbed in the lip by a pencil, and it took 6 months for the scabbing and skin to heal up properly.

Try the redline server, I hear they are very popular with open wheelers .

Well, I do Karate as an exercise, I train 3 times a week. I also have milk in cereal every day now (fibre diet) *for some reason I don't like milk when its alone, but love it with cereal*

Clearly I should be fine. But to save bother, I tend to stop the habit completely. To be honest, the more I think about it, the more my hands feel a bit weird lol. Only because I'm concentrating on them.

I also crack my wrists, *like they do in martial arts to intimidate*

I tend to see the doctor for a checkup, just to be on the safe side and to learn more about it. It's happened to my grandad, and because I can type max 90 wpm, and I love to play LFS, and drive, you can see why I made this topic .
