Walmart was selling it for $2.50.

It's not perfect paint, it's easy to scratch. =_=

Just don't paint anything you'll be touching a lot.

It doesn't have to be an ico file. Most servers will recognize GIF, PNG, and JPG as valid favorites icons. With GIF and PNG, you can have transparency, but I wouldn't try it with a 24bit PNG.

You may have to mess with your hosts file to compensate for your ISP's apparently retarded DNS.

Hmm.. Sounds like the lid switch is messed up? It would require opening the system to diagnose properly. =_=

Yes, but those have nothing to do with the system not answering the call. You have to manually initiate the pickup.

I did. I knew in advance that only voice modems work, and not all of them do. Dead line connections are tricky even when using two dedicated computers to do it.

Recommended PCI modems for "dialing" DC into PC?

My Motorola SM56 Voice Modem ignores everything that comes in; the Dreamcast cries that nothing is picking up. Followed the XP guide to the letter, took no shortcuts. DC modem connected to PCI modem LINE, 4 wire cable. The only other spare modems I have lying around are ISA, and I'm not going to set...

My 2K Pro CD key doesn't work with any of the Win2K installation packages I've used, and the really retarded part is, the key is the one printed on the sticker sttached to the bottom of the notebook.

It's possible. Don't buy a wireless game adapter for your XB, though. Huge waste of money for something you really can't use on another device. Wireless routers always have wired ports, and they give you lower ping time than a wireless connection.

=_= You don't need your modem right next to your computer. Hell, when I had cable, the modem was behind the TV, on the first split, and I ran ethernet cable from it to my comp. Ethernet has much better S:N over longer distances than coaxial cable, for obvious reasons.

Wait, you get BBC, and no amusing commercials, for what amounts to the price of an XBox and a new TV to play it on each year?
