  1. Your CPU temp is fine. I'd be more worried if it went over 75C at full load. As for your GPU, that's a bit high. Probably not high enough to do damage, but it might slowly wear it out. (I hope you mean it's 79C at full load. If it's anything other than full load, I'd try lowering that...) I'm looking at my GPU temps right now (9800GTX+) and they're at 61 idle. With the counter strike video stress test, it hit 73. If I can find something to really push it, I will report back.
  2. Just do it manually. First, right click on your shortcut and go to properties. Under the "Shortcut" tab, click "Change Icon...". Now, browse to where you installed Steam. Once there, go to "\steam\games". That folder should contain a bunch of icons, which are for all your games. The files have random names, but they SHOULD have the right icon, so just click the file with the icon you want. Then, just open that file, select the icon, and hit "OK". Repeat for each shortcut you want to fix. If you want to speed up browsing, and you're on Vista or Win7, after you hit browse, just paste "%ProgramFiles% (x86)\Steam\steam\games\" into your address bar. It should go right into the folder you want. Tell me if that works.
  3. Update, I found the problem. I'll post it for future reference. In Windows 7, if you have a theme set up which changes your desktop background every so often, then the game will lock in at 10 FPS (or some other number) after your background changes. Simply minimizing the game and then reentering will solve it. Or, you can just turn it off to avoid the problem altogether.
  4. TTT brings out the worst in people.
  5. Holy shit, Tyler, I never saw that one before. One of the best I've ever seen. Even for an overdone meme.
  6. Don't be fooled by the first minute. This is not your average crap music video. (Embedding is disabled.) WTF: 9/10
  7. I don't think your insides will be left open for everyone to see... >.>;
  8. Oh god, I was there for that. Hilarious shit. That was a good voice changer though. x.x
  9. Cooper test

    I have to do this run this Tuesday. ;_; Apparently, if anyone doesn't get at least the same score they did last time they did the run, they fail gym (which correlates to no graduation for this senior). Then again, my school loves scare-tactics. I'm too lazy and tired to do the math, but i get around 16.5 laps, where 12 laps is a mile. Terrible compared to almost everyone else. My endurance is literally shit.
  10. Yeah, it's sometimes not worth upgrading just because of the unfamiliar interface.
  11. I'm aware its a month old, but I didn't find any threads on this. Also, it's new to me, and playing around with it was fun. =P
  12. New feature in Photoshop CS5: Content-Aware Fill. Basically, it quickly and usually painlessly removes unwanted artifacts in an image. This includes lens flare, hair in old film negatives, and even entire objects you don't want. Go here to see exactly what it does. (It literally takes about 30 seconds to go from the before to the after image.) Accompanying videos: Here is another one. I shat bricks at 3:16 Of course, it's sometimes fairly easy to see the repeating pattern, especially with the removal of giant objects, since all this does is searches for matching patches elsewhere in the image, and fills it in. But this really speeds up the process.
  13. >.>
  14. Instead, use it to attack the other team. >=D
  15. Why did you have the urge to test a PSU that was smoking? o.o At least you did that without anything connected. It's rare for any PSU to go in such a dramatic fashion, especially new ones.
  16. I think a map based on Chernobyl would be better if the explosion was either in the middle or end of the map. So then, the humans would have to activate emergency switches to help buy time, or activate emergency cooling measures, etc. (It certainly gives a basis for killing off people who failed to escape, and finishing off zombies.)
  17. Sorry guys, I guess I can't provide more lulz for you anymore.
  18. I asked my friend what the time was while he was holding a glass of milk. Sometimes, simple is good.
  19. Terrible lag

    It could be possible your computer is overheating, which would explain why this is happening suddenly. Dust out the inside of your computer if you haven't in a while. (Dusting it can't really do any harm.) To get drivers, just go to the website of your video card manufacturer, and a drivers/downloads link should be somewhere on their front page. Then, just find your own series/card and download the appropriate drivers. However, do post what video card you have (and other specs), since some nVidia drivers don't work with CSS (for whatever reason).
  20. So, uh, garfieldh.com?
  21. I'm using Turtle Beach surround sound (lol) headphones. (Here.) I got them for $50 or so when they were on sale. Surround sound isn't the best quality (obviously) but not crap. I'm certainly not disappointed. I really love the mic though. I haven't explored much in the way of headsets though, just find one that gets good reviews and has the features you want.
  22. All I'm going to say is CSS != MW2. /cssVSmw2
  23. It doesn't modify any code or change any memory during execution. All it does is change a shortcut inside your CSS folder to point toward the sound file you want to play, and use commands built into the Source engine.
  24. Steam Problems

    Ok, I found that some people had this problem if they had too many friends/groups. How many do you have? If you have a very high amount (say over 100 or 150 or so), try deleting some. (The other user who had this problem had over 200 friends and 200 groups...)
