    Error loading ZH or Generals

    All of my games work fine on Windows 7 and I'm talking games from back in the day. I got Tib Dawn and Red Alert working on 7, but that was 32-bit rather than 64-bit. I know some games rely on full administrator permissions before they can run properly. May need to set Run as Admin on the game executable, and see if that helps any. Because, to be honest, it's not the OS that won't run the games... it's something else.

    Mozilla Firefox Official Thread

    I don't like that change. I like actually seeing what I'm using, especially when it comes to http/https.

    Nmenth presents:

    That's probably one of the best C+P infantry I've seen since Chrono Loony released the Parasite.

    Tablets and Ipads

    Wifi. Your argument is now invalid.

    Mozilla Firefox Official Thread

    I'm still on version five. They're not breaking my addons because they're overzealous cocks.

    The Ten Worst Heavy Metal Albums of All-Time

    Maiden on that list? Fear of the Dark isn't their best work, but it's still a damn fine album. And who knew? Metallica at the top spot. What a shocker! For the record, I actually like Load, Reload and St. Anger.

    Tablets and Ipads

    I want a tablet, just for the portability. Great for those times when you need some Internet time, but don't want to lug around a goddamn laptop. Just need to get enough cash to get one sometime...

    Specialty Generals

    I'm the last person to ask about ZH modding since I don't really do much of it myself. However, it's a lot like RA2... just with more INI files and a slight bit more complexity.

    Video of the day

    Still classic.

    Ares not working

    That actually makes sense because of their behavior. I have LB set to run as an admin, but not my Ares launch script. Then again, I wrote my own a long time ago. Oh, and Nmenth, you seem to be lacking in the VC2008 department (though it doesn't seem to have an effect). This is what mine looks like:

    Ares not working

    Screencap your add/remove programs window around the VC2008 Redist. I'm almost certain that's the problem.

    Specialty Generals

    I do some ZH modding and it's possible to change the generals. In fact, it's really easy since they all have their own INI file with their units.

    Ares not working

    I have 7 and I run Ares without any trouble whatsoever. When you say it's not working, what exactly happens? I need more than what you're giving us. A screencap will be helpful. While you're at it, double check that the VC2008 Redist installed on your PC, and that it's the right version (32-bit vs 64-bit). This can be done through the Add/Remove Programs wizard. Shortcut appwiz.cpl from the Run box. You might try running the standalone package as a test. It could just be LB cocking up.

    Ares not working

    Did you actually install the redist package?

    Battlefield 3

    Medium is fine for me. Hell, I have a 460 and still play a lot of games on medium.
  18. I read some comments and people were posting referrers. /b/ and /v/ sound like 4chan to me.

    Universe at War at $10 on Steam!

    This game isn't worth $10. It's just not...
  20. Did anyone mention 4chan yet? Yeah, they skewed the results. Should be obvious by now.

    US Net Neutrality rule to finally take effect

    Net neutrality should be the default. Keeping telecommunications giants from blocking certain websites is never a bad thing, but they shouldn't need a law to know not to be dicks.
  22. I can't even view the ****ing results because gamespot sucks. Bah, beating Falco. Einstein is great and all, but Falco is the ****.

    Reign of Steel Mod Alpha Release

    That would be great. YR needs more playable conversions. AR2, Blitzkrieg and Code Red aren't enough.

    Reign of Steel Mod Alpha Release

    Too bad this will probably never be finished. It was a promising YR conversion. It is what it is though.
