    Have anyone noticed that when you move into a new appartment, set up your computer and start it for the first time, you hear the fan (is that the word for "fläkt"?) which is extreemly loud (why?), and it's annoying(?=)

    dunno, i don't hear the processor fan anymore, that's just something you hear when you move into a new appartment

    Talking DECEPTION

    dont you watch "Fact or Ficion?"
    hehe
    here is why you hear it
    because you had not heard a computer boot up in a while
    and for the first time you boot it up or few first times
    you hear the fan
    but after a while you get immune to the sound and you dont hear it
    just like parksie smell, he smells so bad (can smell it from here...) but he cant because all his life he been smelling like dat so he is immune to his own smell

    Talking ok ok

    does your apartment have a lot stuff in it or is it have just a couch ect.
    i mean the room the puter is in
    if it has few things in it the sound will travel further
    if it has a lot stuff in it then it shouldn't be that loud
    but if its like empty (like mine) then the sound travels more and reflects more..
    i can go on and on about this i can even calculate the sound volume.. but i wont hehehe

    you got it!

    That's it! That's the thing, i didn't move my stuff in there, i just had to start my computer first and check if everything works, and the room was of course pretty empty!

    But ofcourse the fan to my althon 600 does a lot of noise too, but it just sounded a bit too loud to be normal

    I can smell parksie too

    I have been doing several things to prevent it, including covering my whole computer table with deoderant, I thought maybe the deoderant would smell instead of parksie.... but no luck..

    if anybody knows a way to stop parksie's smell from getting to me... let me know.... PLEASE!!!!!

    parksie does have a smell to him...what i tried was capturing a skunk and getting him to spray my monitor. True it does leave a smell but it's not as bad.
    Give it a shot.

    maybe you can have your computer in a steril bubble...or if all hope is lost, use febreeze

    Or, a skunk, febreeze, and a bubble, and a clothespin for your nose.

    Hmm.. is that á supposed to have an umlaut?

    Okay, somebody translate that thing parksie said. Only French (I'm guessing French) I know like that is 'en coulez vous, tu petit merde'.

    No this is a pretty funny thread... But, It sort of makes me feel sorry for parksie...(NOT!!! ) Also, he has been helpful in many of our questions in the Games/Graphics forum.
