For the copy one: uncopy after setting the events, that may work.

Wow, you guys were surprisingly helpful!  So, this thing would cost me $1,201.88.

And it will only get better when ATI releases new performance drivers in December for their 4800s. Since the 4870 is in direct competition with the GTX 260 and 280 you will vast differences in driver quality for the 4800 series over Nvidia's 9 series.

  That's pretty awesome.

Believe me, all the cards I own are Nvidia products, but even I must admit that ATI is doing a great job right now. The 4850 is the way to go, especially with your P45 motherboard. Phyx means jack stuff right now. Few 'real' games use it, only tech demos mostly. ATI cards have this video encoder thing going for them and DX10.1.

If you are getting 4GB of memory then yes, get 64-bit Vista (not XP, driver support was horrible).

  Alright, I'll check it out, I'll see if I want it. 
I heard XP 64-bit was like that with drivers.

Newegg is running really slow right now.

I noticed. 
I'm shooting for an nVidia, because of a brand bias I have, and nVidia Phyx, yes, I truely am odd.  I like the case, I think it's quite awesome, but also, that's a personal thing.  I'll check out the Vista 64 bit.  I'll go for the monitor, I have decent speakers now.

I'll check how much they are, and I'm not really on a budget, but I'm trying not to make it too expensive, like $1500.

By saying you want a challenging song, instead of an impossible one, you are implying that the impossible one is too easy.  Also, data doesn't have a brain, or cells, so it cannot be handicapped.  Also, who's the one saying most of the names in this argument?

Yeah I think that will occasionally happen if the RTB server is experiencing high CPU usage which has been happening recently due to another user on our shared server running some CPU-intensive applications (this has now been dealt with, by the way)  - I have removed the popup from displaying in the next RTB and down-graded it to a console error, however this shouldn't be happening repeatedly unless you actually have entered details incorrectly since the system will try to auth you up to 10 times then fail. Sessions are then established between you and the server so the process should only ever be done once unless your session expires (but you'd have to be playing blockland for a few days straight for that to happen).

Anyway, i'll be looking into whats going on there later.

@Marcem, this is an RTB error not the Auth Fail blockland error that closes your internet server. The RTB one just has a popup message.

Hmm, I think it did take down my server, that's all that I saw when I got back to my computer, tehn it didn't let me start a server again a few times, I thought Badspot removed the one built in.  Whatever, something to look into.

Did you even read it?

Yes, but that quote still doesn't make sense, also, you removed the rest, to make you look smarter.  It's like saying "I CAN'T BEAT THIS GAME BECAUSE IT MAKES ME RAGE AND IT'S stuff forget CUNTING handicapped loving stuffTING BITCHING MONKEY stuff!  WHY COULDN'T THAY MAKE IT CHALLENGING?!"

Couldn't they find something challenging rather than stupid loving handicapped impossible stuff? HERE'S A SMALL IDEA, WHY NOT "The Sentinel" by Judas Priest!? The solo is at least CHALLENGING. Now, someone will say "It IS challenging!" No. It's not "Challenging". Let me point out the fine line between challenging and handicapped stuff impossible.
