A GPF is basically caused by an application trying to use kernel (or protected) memory locations. Basically the application has a bug in it. A classic case is the extension of an n-dimensional string array without using an malloc statement, but there are a heap of otherways of getting a GPF.

Well the good news is Apple have made their new Imacs capable of running windows so even if you get a mac now and want to remember what everyone else is going through you can :)

Yep, that's my addiction (Source - haven't tried the original). Not the most stable Valve product though.

Yep. I'm hooked as well. I find it stable on a 512k connection with a reasonable computer. I think mine is an AMDAthlon 2500 with 1 gig of ram.

Might see you on line one day.

My name on Day of Defeat is General Pest.

The young guys don't like me too much as I win too often.

Sorry for the thead hijack, but that's me :angel:.
