Bot Contest

Funny thing about respect is that you have to earn it. You give a little and you'll get a little, Roxie.

Just think how much respect you'd generate if you went away for two years. That'd be awesome!

my computer was attacked by a virus. (arrrghh!!!) on minute it's fine, I walk away from the machine, and when I get back it had restared itself. then, it froze when AIM opened automatically, and on the second restart it told me that a critical system file was missing. the third restart didn't get passed the HP logo, and the fourth restart reevealed a blank screen and a completely inactive machine. If I don't fix it soon, I may not be able to complete my bot in time for the CBC.

Oh man that sux dude Im sorry. I can't imagine what thats gotta be like.... well lets see... I enter Din and all of sudden hes gone... hmmm.... .... if that happened.... ... oh man I think I'd cry!

Hope it starts workin for ya I'll even pray a little.

My computer is officialy up and running I reset bios settings, took the memory and hard drive out and put them back in, reset power, and the computer booted up normally. What a relief...

Phew! I bet that's a relief

Now, back up your bots without delay to removable media!

good idea! thats a jolly good way to make use of an idle FTP server...

Like I can talk - I haven't backed up in 6 months probably!

Correction- Deadline to enter the CBC is March 15, 2006

Thank goodness colonel... Glad to hear its fixed... Yes save now... *goes and backs up a few of his things too.*

Wendell: Are you going to be needing judges, as with the previous years?

it happened again. My computer seems completely dead, and is not responding to anything, not even removal of drive and ram. I think there is a small battery that saves BIOS settings, but I can't get to it on my laptop because I don't have a star shaped screwdriver. Since my computer is the only one in the house that runs VB, my project is ruined unless another miracle happens.
