I HATE MAC

AND HERE WE GO AGAIN.

Now it's the goddamn trackpad button. It's completely screwed, i keep making selection boxes with the mouse pointer without holding anything, the right moause button function works 1/5 times and the left mouse button is unpredictable (hell, i just deleted half of this post just by moving the mouse, all hail Ctrl+Z)

I tried to reinstall the Boot Camp trackpad drivers but absolutely nothing ensured.

Needless to say it makes bot building a pain, i can barely rotate the bot in the bot lab.

My old Mac mouse plugged on, it fixed everything except i have no more right mouse button... and combining the trackpad and the mouse to work together is hell.

I'll try to buy a normal USB mouse for replacing the trackpad, but if it does not work and i can't fix the damn thing...

...well the NAR AI Beta won't get more bots built by me.

Am posting this on one of my university's computers since mine crashed AGAIN.

Damn thing keeps BSODing just after the windows loading screen (Seems it's a Registry entry in System32 that's the issue.) - and as i am an idiot i didnt made a backup of my important files on my iPod.

I just hope i can save my files now...

Crash at startup is probably due to drivers being ****ed up or Windows not being able to access the HDD partition where it's kernel is. Have you fiddled around in the BIOS settings lately?

Nope. I just defragged my drive yesterday...

I ran chkdsk.exe in MS-DOS, it kept coming back to 50%... was pisssed, reboot, and it works like a charm.

While trying to reinstall windows to make RA2 work i accidentally



my whole internet connection WITHOUT repairing RA2, and i can't reinstall windows because i broke the Boot Camp drivers CD.

(Dwarf Forteress works now though)

The Windows CD is probably damaged as well, so i'll try to reinstall windows after having torrented the drivers (if i manage to do it), either i get Ubuntu and try to make RA2 work on it, either i buy another computer.

I think you should juts get a new computer. After all the trouble you have gone through I don't see the benifit of just going through the same problems again. Also win7 is much better than vista.

I torrented the Windows OS and put it on a DVD to make it an installation disc. Obviously it worked.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.
