Okay, first off, to better explain my question, I should state that I am not talking about JUST Ubuntu Linux. I am wondering why for the vast majority of programs out there, we either need to install...

Okay, before I get a bunch of posts saying this relates to another thread, I will admit, yes it does. This is related, however it is a new question. If yo would like to see what this question derives...

**********UPDATE******** 11/14/2012

Well, I got my replacement fan + heatsink and thermal paste in the mail (I guess they pre-apply them now to prevent user error...).

I'm actually using my...

Thank you guys. Thread Closed.

I would have to reinstall grub? Why? I'm not changing the location of the GRUB bootloader, and I'm not SUPER sure but I don't believe that doing a system restore doesn't clear the bootloader...think...

I was getting really bad performance from black ops under WINE so I decided to give it a try under windows.

Well, when I booted to windows 7, I noticed alot of my stuff was out of date (I haven't...

I've been having a problem with the black ops zombie map, call of the dead.

I DO NOT run windows (I honestly don't care too) and run black ops under wine. When I jump in the water on the level,...

While I do appreciate and thank you for the tip, I will not consider this a solution to the problem and will leave the thread open, as it's more of a workaround than a solution.
