was it a GeForce 7900? Mine is going to kick the bucket soon due to an inherent flaw, so hopefully they will replace it. If yours was a 7900 as well, then I would look into this.

This doesn't excuse you from coming on AIM and keeping me company as I hit the refresh button on the forum every two minutes.

FYI, I finished a version of the GM cliff. So, whatever comp you're on, get NIFScope, and check it out. If it's good to you, I will make more variations.

But other that, take this time to kick back and relax... but not too much.

I remember when my computer was bright and shiny and new and so full of new things... now it makes strange noises, has a layer of dust on the case, and all my cash is going to some combination of new golf clubs/ipod/new skateboard/new snowboard.

While you were away, Christmas happened, and the modeling department got a new Models version of a Claims Browser, found just between Interiors and Quests. :-)

You just don't have the right to say that if your HDD has more than 40gig capacity! Sigh, that's all I have.
