as always...my day isnt complete without you contradicting me

PC is IBM compatible, Apple isn't, and the term PC isn't applied to it formally. Joe is the only one that plays the game on a Mackintosh? Strange.. I seem to remember that this game isn't compatible with that..

hey ssj... wut if the virus is installed to your comp... you know if you uninstall something a vital app to is installed permantly into your pc/mac period!

first: bloodpack... didn't contradicted you, rather i enlightened you by answering to your question... as the fact that he doesn't have a PC but a MAC !

second: SCORPONOK... have i not said that we don't see him lot in the chat rooms ? if yes then it hink i mentionned that MAC have lots problems playing the game, which is BTW, like JAVA and is suppoose to work on all machines ! only have 1 guess as to why it doesn't work tho... that's DIRECTX which MACs aren't using !

THIRD: PANDA_MAN... when you don't know what a computer is, you don't go arguing with a technician !

again here is the descriptioln of a BOOT DISK and the two primal tool of a technician who has to have to bring back a computer to its when bought stage !

*FORMAT.COM*
a little software used to bring erase every single bytes on a hard drive and completely removes the OS (windows, linux, msdos and the likes)

basically, nothing is there anymore and the computer doesn't even start anymore !

*FDISK*
little tool that is used to make PARTITIONS on a harddrive and make him be read and detectable by the computer !

see... nothing and i mean nothing... is still there after a FORMAT !
no software can survive that little program... cause to survive the program would have to be kept in RAM... which is the only memory that can be read/writen in... but when you shut down the computer for about 5 minutes and more... that memory will not be even existing anymore, since no JUICE is in the computer anymore !

example:
a computer is only working in binaries.. 1 and 0 ... 1 means electricity is passing thru, 0 means no electricity is passing thru. so basically, when there is no electricity in the computer, there can't be anything working in there or even existing in there !

exception's are... removable media, such as HARD DRIVES which uses a physical disk to literally burn things so they can be kept intact while the computer is turned off !

so yeah, i know what i'm talking about when i say that VIRUSes will never survive when you bring a disk back to zero !

if you don't like FORMAT and think it still is unliable... then go LOW LEVEL FORMAT the drive ! which is a tool made by the company to bring their drives into the state they were in when you bought it !

BTW, LOW LEVEL FORMAT can be used to bring back a DRIVE that was HFS+ (apple file system) transformed !
which means, an APPLE DRIVE if was initially made for a PC, can be be seen again by a PC... even if formatted in HFS+ !

(i actually tryed this one... because i had to put the drive in a PC)

now shut it up PANDA !
