Hi all,
ORIGINAL: Terminus

So far, it's a little disappointing... I'm only just out of the tutorial missions, so there's still hope...

Disappointed?

With gameplay?

With GUI?

With "feeling"?

It's mainly "feeling" and thus not easily quantifiable.

Am I still here?  I guess I always knew A) I am a sinner, B) Camping is still a crackpot, C) Both A & B.  [:D]
Yup. Still here too. I *did* have a moment of rapture though. One of my I-boats put a TT into a CVE and got a *fuel explosion* to boot! Rapture! Hooray!


For the I-boat it was hell shortly thereafter, courtesy of depth charges and a USN sub torpedo.

Looking for some help. My daughter has a HP laptop that the hard drive crashed on. I installed the new hard drive and now I have to reinstall Windows XP. She never made the recovery disks and so now I am looking for options. I have tried using the discs I made for a HP desktop I had but that didn't work. My son has a retail version of XP but the serial number on the laptop doesn't work. Anything else I can try other than purchasing another copy of windows?

Hi all,
ORIGINAL: warspite1

Not in the English Premiership and the battle to stay up on the last day of the season.....

Spurs made it after all... [:D]

We did! [:)] I don't care what anyone says, the Europa league is still a major trophy to be won so I'm glad we have qualified for Europe again (even if it is the poor man's Champions League)! When was the last time Liverpool failed to qualify for Europe [X(]

Mixed emotions about sending Birmingham down, after all they did beat Arsenal in the League Cup [:D]

Most upset about the Tangerines [:(]. I would like to have seen Blackpool stay up. Spurs did their best to help them keep top flight status by giving them 4 points out of 6 [:D] but it was not enough....

Is the XP serial number on your daughter's laptop?

I was watching Band of Brothers episode 4 tonight (the Market-Garden) episode, and it struck me as peculiar that the production company was able to acquire multiple examples of Shermans and Cromwells, but only one copy each of all German vehicles. I counted a Tiger, a Jagdpanther, a Marder III, a Stug IV, a halftrack with a Pak 40 and a scout car. Only one of each, though...

Never mind, we get to do it all again in three months [:D] Can't say I'm bothered by any of the relegations, although Birmingham was a bit of a surprise.

I wonder if Matrix would be up for a fantasy football league next season?

Morning tithe... Well I didn't get taken to Haven overnight, so I guess I'm not one of the 'Chosen Ones'. Well I can't say I'm not surprised I'm still here, as I know I'm not Angel Material. But I am surprised my Brother-an-Law didn't go, as he is a clean living fellow, and goes to Church twice a week.

I remember reading that they had to make some of these, as they couldn't get their hands on real life versions.

Yes, it has the Windows sticker with the serial number

All you need is install media then. Just borrow someone's.....just not an upgrade version. Install and put in her product key.

Fixed.

I wouldn't be surprised at all at that. Marder III? Never seen one.
