one of my moms cousins has been missing since 1978 they don't know if hes dead or alive. Most of the family doesn't even care anymore because the ones that did care are either 80 or 90 or dead.

I have seen your posts around the net regarding the search for your uncle.

How old is he? I came across a paper trail for a Casey R Hunt that winds through 5 Nevada cities. That Casey Hunt is around 59.

However if he is in his late 60's then he can be found in Valparaiso, In.

You should really spend and get a US based PI thats in your area. That way you give them all the details you know, and they can search databases that are private from the public.

If you have quite a bit to spend and want to find him quickly then see a bounty hunter firm. They do allot of bail jumper searches so they are adapt at finding people fast.

There basic job is hunting down individuals who are difficult to locate such as skipped debtors, dead-beat parents, a court witnesses, etc.

Everyone has a paper trail because everyone needs medical treatment at some point, food and clothing, shelter, work, transportation and entertainment.

You just need to pick up on it and follow it. It can be tough though when the person doesn't want to be found.

iv recently put alot of money into my pc and my 3dmark03 score is very low when compared to other systems in my range and i have no idea why.. here is my system specs...

p4 2.4ghz 800mhz sb, 865PE chipset, 1 gig pc2700 ddr dual channel, radeon 9700 pro, audigy sound, win xp..

and my 3dmark03 score is a depressingly low 2020.. most games look and play great although i still do get some slowdown in ut2003 with everything on at 800*600 res which i dont think i should... if somebody could explain why im getting such low scores or help out in the matter it would be much appreciated..

sorry for posting that here it was meant for the hardware section but to answer your question no its all retail and i cant update my bios iv tried and when i did i ended up with some serious issues and had to reformat and start from scratch. and the graphics card drivers are not the most recent i have tried the newest ones but i had problems with them and ended up having to roll them back.. so im not sure what to do..

Michael
07-18-03, 11:06 PM
hmmm i replied to your other thread also so if ya could post what you just did here there as well. maybe someone whos more familiar with your system type will see it and help ya.

If its all retail it should work fine. How ever you might want to uninstall all of your hard ware and reintall it 1 at a time. switch pci slots around maybe theres some irq problems etc.

I have got a Sony Vaio PCG-FX270K laptop that has two memory slots (with Linux OS). Recently, I have realized that the laptop is using only one of the memory slots (#1).
I tested it by swapping various modules in both slots or in a single slot only. Has anyone encountered a similar problem? And how would you make the laptop to recognize the slot #2 again? I even disassembled the laptop but did not find anything suspicious like a loose cable/connector, etc.
Thank you for any suggestions in advance.

Hi Guys,

I have the Enterprise version of Windows 2003 Server. BUT the key i am using is blacklisted apparently :( , its no problem apart from i cant download off the windows update site, when i try to, it says something about not having a valid key. Just wondered if there was anything anyone knew to help. I have heard there is a hack to get around it and apparently Alpha Alien and Cobra know about it. Any chance someone could PM with it please as its really doing my nut not being able to download updates :(

id be grateful for any help as its a great o/s and id REALLY like to stay on it :)

thanks guys

Hey, I have a problem. I am geting an error- the harddrive was not found! Recover was aborted!
If you have a hard disk installed, the cables may be loose or the disk may not be intialized.
You may need to run FDisk. And this was after a systems recovery.
