Reviews about a few Games (CS 1.6)

Counter-Strike 1.6 is a FPS game when you shoot the opponent. The teams are Counter-Terrorist which is good guys and Terrorist that's the evil side. Terrorist(T) can use weapons like AK-47 and Counter-Terrorist(CT) can use weapons like M16. It's the CT'ss job to kill the terrorist and defuse the bomb if it's planted. Terrorist's job is to kill the CT's and plant the bomb. Only one person gets to have the bomb.

Reviews about a few Games (WoW)

2009-06-05T11:09:00.000-07:00

Ok. this is a topic where i tell you what i think about some games. Let's start with World of warcraft

World of warcraft (WoW) is a MMORPG game where you play online with friends and meet other community. Wow costs around 15 $ and it has three expansions. First the base one "World of warcraft classic" first expansion "The Burning Crusade(TBC)" and second and newest "Wrath of the Lich King(WotLK)" the full WoW with all expansions will eat like 9 gigabytes (less or more) of your computer. WoW is funny for you who would like to start play something, the money is worth it i guess. You make friends with alot of people!

Ok so what are you doing in WoW?

WoW has 80 levels so far (In Wrath of the Lich King) And it has 70 levels in The Burning Crusade and in classic it has 60 levels. So you need to have every expansion to reach full capacity of the game. But my advice is to reach 60 first, then buy TBC and at like level 68, buy WOTLK.

In WoW you do Instances and Raids. Raids are with 10 or 25 people killing something to get some good equipment or maybe you can raid a city. If you are alliance you raid hordes. In instances you play still killing something to get equipment but it is alot easier and you are only five people there.

Quests are like missions, you complete a mission you either get EXP (Experience) to gain levels or you get money. If you are at max level in that expansion you get only money, but twice as much.

How to use Speech Recognition

2008-06-08T09:15:00.000-07:00

This is a guide about Speech Recognition.

*What is speech recognition?
Speech recognition is a tool for Windows Vista. With SR you will be able to speak with the computer like "Open Notepad" and "Open mozilla firefox" thoose "magic words" will open the software you tell the computer to open.

Lets start with the guide

If you use another language than English, then you won't be able to do this unless you install english language on your vista OS system.

When you have done this you only have to go to your control panel and open Speech Recogniton, from there it should be easy.

Im sorry i didn't add any screenshots or continiue this guide a little bit more. The reason i didn't was that i use Windows XP.

For this, you need Windows XP Professional or Windows Server 2003

All right! Go to Start, then RUN, type cmd and click OK. In the commandprompt type gpedit.msc and then you will get a window called Group Policy or Group Policy Object Editor. Expand Adminstrative Templates, then expand Network and CLICK QoS Packet Schelude, doubble click Limit reservable bandwith. Press Enabled and type 0 instead of 20. Your done.

Step 1 – Modify Explorer.exe File

In order to make the changes, the file explorer.exe located at C:\Windows needs to be edited. Since explorer.exe is a binary file it requires a special editor. For purposes of this article I have used Resource Hacker. Resource Hacker^TM is a freeware utility to view, modify, rename, add, delete and extract resources in 32bit windows executables and resource files (*.res). It incorporates an internal resource script compiler and decompiler and works on Win95, Win98, WinME, WinNT, Win2000 and WinXP operating systems. To download Resource Hacker, go here

The first step is to make a backup copy of the file explorer.exe located at C:\Windows\explorer. Place it in a folder somewhere on your hard drive where it will be safe. Start Resource Hacker and open explorer.exe located at C:\Windows\explorer.exe as shown in Fig. 01.

Fig. 01

The category we are going to be using is String Table. Expand it by clicking the plus sign then navigate down to and expand string 37 followed by highlighting 1033. If you are using the Classic Layout rather than the XP Layout, use number 38. The right hand pane will display the stringtable as shown in Fig. 02. We’re going to modify item 578, currently showing the word “start” just as it displays on the current Start button.

Fig. 02

There is no magic here. Just double click on the word “start” so that it’s highlighted, making sure the quotation marks are not part of the highlight. They need to remain in place, surrounding the new text that you’ll type. Go ahead and type your new entry. In my case I used ElderGeek as shown in Fig. 03.

Fig. 03

Compare the screen captures in Fig. 02 and Fig. 03 and you’ll notice that after the new text string has been entered the Compile Script button that was grayed out in Fig. 02 is now active in Fig. 03. I won’t get into what’s involved in compiling a script, but suffice it to say it’s going to make this exercise worthwhile. Click Compile Script and then save the altered file using the Save As command on the File Menu. Do not use the Save command – Make sure to use the Save As command and choose a name for the file. See Fig. 04. Save the newly named file to C:\Windows.

Fig. 04

Step 2 – Modify the Registry

Now that the modified explorer.exe has been created it’s necessary to modify the registry so the file will be recognized when the user logs on to the system. If you don’t know how to access the registry I’m not sure this article is for you, but just in case it’s a temporary memory lapse, go to Start (soon to be something else) Run and type regedit in the Open: field. Navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ Windows NT\ CurrentVersion\ Winlogon

Fig. 05

In the right pane (Fig. 05), double click the Shell entry to open the Edit String dialog box as shown in Fig. 06. In Value data: line, enter the name that was used to save the modified explorer.exe file. Click OK.

Fig. 06

Close Registry Editor and either log off the system and log back in, or reboot the entire system if that’s your preference. If all went as planned you should see your new Start button with the revised text.
