Re: Post your Computer Questions/Help
if its not there. its really just going to be easier to reinstall the damn thing. yes you could just add things into the registry, but if by change it put it in a different spot then all that work would be for nothin.
do this....
rename your battlefield folder to bfvbackup....
install the game. then copy the backup folder of the game and paste it over the new install. wont have to re install updates, and it should put all the stuff in registry it needs.

Re: Post your Computer Questions/Help
Ok, so upon uninstalling, it asks me to insert Disc 1.
Disc 1 was already inserted.
I press "OK"
It says "Please insert Disc 1"
*Head explodes*
*sigh* Oh well...I guess I wasnt meant to play online games.

Re: Post your Computer Questions/Help
My sister and I each have separate accounts on the PC and when she's done using it she always 'switches' off so her applications will continue to run. When I go on, I like to have full power so of course I always restart the computer so that her account gets completley logged off. Our accounts are both password protected and we both have admin settings so even though I could get onto her account and log her off it just gets me in trouble. So I was wondering:
1. Is restarting the PC so often going to harm it in anyway? Normally you only restart after installing an application or if you're computer is having trouble but I must restart at least twice a day. Is there any other way I could log her account off without restarting or messing with her settings?
2. The reason she has admin settings is because she claims some of her programs otherwise don't work. Like Limewire. Is there a way to adjust the settings so these programs will work on a normal, non-admin account? Because I really don't like the idea of her having admin abilities and I'm kind of the maintenance guy for our PC.

Re: Post your Computer Questions/Help
You dont have to restart, as far as I know. On my computer you dont have you.
When it takes you back to the "Choose your user" screen, choose her, log her off. This takes you back to the "Choose your user" screen, but now shes logged off, then you can log on as your account.
Or at least, thats what I do on my computer.

1. yes, restarting often isnt good for the comptuer.
are you talking about XP? because theres a log off button and a switch users. Switch users leaves everything on for that user and lets another user log on. Log off completly logs that user off, nothing in that account is running, restarting doesnt do any extra.
2. if thats the case then its tryin to use something that you'd need to unlock, or its installed in a spot thats for admin.
should try searching on google for that.

Re: Post your Computer Questions/Help
Yeah, my sister clicks 'Switch Users' so all of her stuff remains running. And I want to log her off when I go on so I can have full power. But since her account is password protected, there's no way I can log her off without just restarting.

Re: Post your Computer Questions/Help
Or you just deny her account from having a password. I'm gonna do some research and find out how it's done again, Used to have to to it to my LTC's computer because he kept forgetting his password but it was a password protected machine so let me look through my books.. and I'll edit this later..

Does it make any difference whether I put my WC3 CD into the DVD-ROM or CD-R ROM drive?
