Problems with Half-Life 2, ugh! Help :)

Hadanar

Hey all, Ok I got a serious problem with Half-Life 2. Here's what happens: I load the game up, alls good. Start up a new game, the introductory (in-game graphics) cutscene starts. It runs fine, but then the sound starts to repeat itself and the game freezes.

External USB drive

thatguy

I just purchased an external western digital media center 200 gigabyte drive. It is a combo card reader and HD. Thought it would make a great addition to my hardware collection. The problem is, and I know this can be fatal- I can't format it.

freeware program that remembers app size/position on the desktop?

Curley_Boy

Ever since the days of 95 this has been a problem that has plagued Windows users Say you have a lot of different programs running (windows open, nicely arranged all over your desktop(s)). You might also have a lot of icons which you have painstakingly positioned in just the right places.
