Mouse & Power Settings Conflict

25 November 2006 - 05:49 PM

Here's the story: Before I began using my current wireless USB mouse by Dynex, I was using a wired USB mouse by Sony. The Sony mouse worked fine with my computer and the computer's power settings would function normally. Now, with this new mouse, the screensaver will not enable nor will any of the other power settings. I can preview my screensaver without a problem, but it won't enable on it's own. The only way I can get the power settings to work now, is to unplug the USB reciever or turn the mouse off.

Is this supposed to happen? If not, what I can I do to get my power settings to funtion without turning the mouse off?

Stuck at 33 Minutes

24 November 2006 - 01:32 AM

I used a Windows XP Home Edition CD (SP1) to format and reinstall Windows on one of our family desktops, however, while it is reinstalling the OS, the progress seems to get stuck at 33 minutes. I know that the computer has not frozen because the part of the screen that changes and tells you about the new features of XP will cycle through it's different screens. I left the computer on for almost 48 hours the first time I did this and the second and third times, I let it only go for about 12 hours before I got fed up with it again.

Any advice as to why it seems to freeze at 33 minutes? Is it actually freezing up or could it really just take a few days for XP to install on this older computer...?

Okay, what are your predictions for this massive match coming up this weekend?

Record amount of Neopoints?

15 November 2006 - 06:58 PM

Just out of curiousity, what is the most number of Neopoints you've ever had on your account? And I mean actually NPs, not value in items.

My record is 26 million NPs. I used MachAB (can I say that here?) for about 5 months last year before my account was frozen; and yes, it did take TNT 5 months to freeze my account. I only ever restocked in the Magic Shop and managed to make 26 million from about 150k Nps. At the time of the freezing of my account, I had another 15 or so magic potions I was trying to sell, 2 of which I was holding onto because I couldn't find any others to price them appropriately.

What do you think my mistake was? My friend says I should have bought something big to make it look a bit less suspicious, but I'm not so sure that was it...

So, what about you, what is the most amount of Neopoints you've ever had?
