  1. I recently started noticing a problem with my PC not being able to reboot (about a week or so now). It boots fine from a cold start, and it runs great but it just will not reboot. I have tried everything I can think of from system restore, Windows Updates, Bios updates, rolling back drivers of recently installed hardware, checked system settings and nothing seems to jump out at me as a possible problem. My next conclusion is that it is my MoBo. I have read on several forums that people with the same MoBo are experiencing boot up problems, and that their MoBos will not boot past POST or that they wind up in an endless boot cycle but I have not come across anyone experiencing an issue with rebooting. What happens is I will go to reboot and it will initialize the shutdown phase, but then it will just hang. The only way to get out of it is to either hit the reset button or hard shut it down. Like I said it will boot up fine and the reset button works, and my comp runs amazingly, it just will not boot up. If anyone has any advice or a solution please let me know and thank you for starting this thread. System Setup: MoBo: Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 CPU: Intel Core i5-2500 Sandy Bridge RAM: G.Skill RipJaws X Series 8GB DDR3 Graphics: EVGA Nvidia GTX 560 2GB DDR5
  2. I too work in IT, but I'm having an issue that has me stumped, I recently started noticing a problem with my PC not being able to reboot (about a week or so now).

  3. So hilarious and painfully true.
  4. Not bashing you here. The only reason why Yoda was the most powerful in the movies is cause he had roughly 900 years to hone is mental and physical skills as well as his connection to the Force. However in the EU (which I know a lot of people don't consider Star Wars), Luke has surpassed every Jedi in the history of the Order. Your opinion is yours and I respect that, as I have pointed out that yes according to Lucas Palps is the strongest Sith, my opinion lists Bane as number 1.
  5. Got my ace handed to me in a few Warzone's by the Republic on my server. I do feel your pain, and I hope it gets better. Just hang in there.
  6. This is the kind of constructive feedback that more people need to post. I commend you sir for this and thank you.
  7. No problem, and good luck to you.
  8. You can still max out you LS points, by doing quest, side quest, and as I stated above picking up Diplomacy (once you max out then you can drop Diplomacy).
  9. It's not too late, and if you need some catching up to do, you can drop your mission skill for Diplomacy which rewards light side/dark side points.
  10. I did this quest. You essentially have 2 choices...you can either go back to the girl or the original guy. In beta I went to the girl and got my light side points. 2 days ago, I did this quest again, and this time I went to the original guy first, betrayed the chick and got 100 dark side points, gave him the brain and got another 50 dark side points, and then watched him torture her for a bit, and state to me that he was going to punish her hardcore. You get light side points for going to the girl first because she is trying to stop an insane Sith Lord.
  11. You're either trolling, or you need to learn how to look for a group.
  12. Playing a Sith Warrior Juggernaut (Guardian Equivilant) level 12 atm, real life work schedule conflict and I have done 4 Warzones so far, I have also played in Beta so I have a bit more experience with the Warrior/Knight class and my skill has steadily gotten better over time. 3 out of those 4 Warzones I came in top 3 on my team. So they are not bad, however remember that until you level up and gain more CC abilities to stick with a group. Don't go solo or you will get beaten over and over again. I stick with my group and find PvP much more enjoyable than when I first tried a Warzone in Beta, and got my *** handed to me cause I tried to be a solo king.
  13. Palpatine as well could destroy planets with the Force, and he mastered essence transfer. Plus George Lucas stated Palps was the strongest. Can't argue with the creator.
  14. I'm a System Administrator so I suffer from carpal tunnel problems already, so the comfort is amazing, really has improved my symptoms quite a bit. They do look nice too though.
  15. I'm not disagreeing that Palps wasn't the strongest, I was just saying that I in my own mind feel that Bane was the better Sith. It's a biased opinion, although not true to actual canon.
  16. This is what I've been trying to say as far as Lucas has declared it, but it seems people still want to argue. As I stated earlier however, my personal opinion is that Bane was the most powerful Sith. Huge fan of him.
  17. I understand that, yet they remained true to their essence, where as Vader became a Force spirit that resembled his Jedi self, not his maimed Sith self. Therefore he was redeemed. I'm not saying that Palps is the most powerful either, I'm meerly stating what Lucas (the creator) has said. Imo Darth Bane is number one.
  18. Palpatine had the ability to devour whole planets with the Force, more so than Galen could do. Also TFU was pretty fun to play, but it was just a terrible story. Here is this guy that could do all this stuff with the Force and beat both Vader and the Emperor in the game yet he was still defeated.
  19. He may have stated that, however he could not have become a Force Spirit showing his true Jedi self if he was not redeemed.
  20. I'll have to look when I get home, but I believe I have it, and I think I got it by discovering the Bind Point out front. I could be wrong though.
  21. Please don't take this sarcastically, but it did happen when he was a Jedi, he redeemed himself and became a Jedi again all in that moment.
  22. The Baran Do Sages would be awesome, and the fact that they are Kel Dor is even better.
  23. No he is in no way a little girl. Anakin/Vader was very poweful, however he never reached his full potential as a Jedi because he was so consumed with himself that he never really got there. In Episode 2 Obi-Wan clearly states "If you spent as much time practicing your saber techniques as you did your wit, you'd rival Master Yoda as a swordsman." The only Jedi that could keep up with Mace Windu (who was the best during that period) were Yoda, Dooku, and I believe Plo Koon. Anakin had a lot of talent and was very strong in the Force, however he lacked the discipline to become as powerful as everyone thought he would be. As far as the chosen one, I'd say it was Anakin, because he did eventually return to the light and killed the Emporer, but we can't really say for sure.
