    Computer Virus

    Hi all, It's been a while since I've posted on CivFanatics, but I have a problem I think the helpful CivFanatics community may be able to help with. On Friday, my fiancee's laptop was infected with a computer virus called AV Security 2012. This virus essentially acts like an anti-virus...

    A USA ally

    Wow, good choices. So I googled the author of your first suggestion and it said "This site may harm your computer." Needless to say, I did not read it. Good work, that's really reliable. A "source," in my opinion, does not include some ramblings from some nobody off any random internet...

    A USA ally

    I would be absolutely THRILLED to see ANY evidence of this statement WHATSOEVER.

    A USA ally

    I swear, according to the people outside of the United States, this country is screwed no matter what it does. We get crap if we don't protect Georgia. We get crap if we do protect Georgia. They wonder why the "typical American" thinks their country is such an important factor in world...

    Obama = the Antichrist?

    Pannonius apparently didn't get the memo disallowing the use of Both Ways Barack's middle name. But you can refer to a certain man, with a certain middle name that starts with an H, ends with an n, and in the middle -- "ussei" -- in a more subtle ways.

    No Food in BFC... at all?

    Look at that river (drool). I love spots like that with towns and a levee. Oh mama. That is wild with no food though. I guess you'd have to farm a few spots and avoid using the whip too much. I'd take that start though.

    Obama or McCain

    Happen to have any at hand? I'd like to read all I can on the issue. Honestly, there are a thousand different views on the oil situation and it's hard to decide. I like to see things from all angles.

    Obama or McCain

    HAHAHA, I love how I put two three's in that previous post. Love the "issue pi" reference as well. I don't see how drilling for oil will not benefit the US. When Clinton was in office he would not allow drilling because it would take too long to get to the oil. Now, X years later, we would...

    All Civved out?

    I can play most games for a couple weeks, maybe three, at most. With Civ 4, I play it all year round. I don't know what the deal is. I haven't even beaten any PS2 games or other PC games for months now. For me, Civ is almost to the point where World of Warcraft is for some people; if I'm not...

    How to Attack Ships From Land

    Nope, sorry, can't do it. Only air units, naval units, and, I believe, missiles can attack ships. Hope I'm not missing something obvious.

    Obama or McCain

    OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! "HOPE! CHANGE! ALL CHANGE IS GOOD! YES WE CAN! I have nothing substantial to say! They're going to tell you I'm too young, they're going to tell you...eh...he's got a funny name!............Did I mention he's black? Oh yeah, HOPE! And CHANGE! And WE...

    What will these upgrades do for Civ performance?

    Snazzye, Thanks for the tip. Ill give it a shot and see how it goes! As for previous posts, I think Im going to go with the geforce 7600 GT instead of the 6600. And I think Im going to take the better PSU as well, plus 2 GB's of memory. So, with these upgrades, anyone have a guess on...

    What will these upgrades do for Civ performance?

    Steve2000, you're the man. Honestly, I just kind of saw the apevia and threw it out there. I did read about that efficiency rating bit, but after I had already looked on Newegg. Budget reasons are the primary concern. I could go out and blow off a couple thousand but it doesn't seem like...

    What will these upgrades do for Civ performance?

    Sheesh. Yet another thing. The 6600 GT requires a minimum power supply of 300w. So now Im looking at PSU's and Im not sure if any old one will do. Newegg has this guy, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817148027, which is 500w. Im just wondering if needing a new PSU...

    What will these upgrades do for Civ performance?

    Your advice was outstanding, it has been a real learning experience. I really appreciate all the help. I think Ill go ahead and order the 6600, maybe look around to see what else is available, but I think thats a good deal for now. Ill post back when I get it fired up.
