    No joy, nothing doing, heart broken I am. :(

    I just can't understand it, the hardware appears to be fine as I can run Xubuntu on the machine without any problems, it just will not load or allow me to install Windows :(

    What are the symptoms? Where is it going wrong?

    If you can give me your system details it would help figure out the problem.

    Huzzah!


    As has been mentioned, there will be gaming during the day! everything else can happen at night. This will hopefully cater to both sides of the scales.

    only 3 days to go :D

    well we have a group of regulars, about 8 - 10 that will turn up when informed but i don't know what they're position is for this LAN.

    Sure if you know anyone who might like to come along then invite them.
    If I find out about the others then I'll post here.

    Any particular reason that COD4 was removed from the list and changed to COD2?

    I've got my fingers crossed that I can get the ClamAV scan sorted over night so that I can present you guys with a 'no windows virus on my linux box' report :D

    Well, that was a savage LAN as always. All the competitions, and the prizes (my €300's going down a treat with the credit card people)! It's a shame there weren't more people there to avail of it. The COD4 was great craic and then the Gun Game stuff was good for the LULZ

    Thanks lads for the making it happen, p00k for my lift down and amp for my lift back up ;)

    hear, hear!

    As usual GL ticked all the necessary boxes for me.

    Some good games, a bit of crack, and getting killed a couple of hundred times :p

    Oh, and playing COD4 on linux was the icing on the cake :D
