Wow that sucks tiff. I tried dragon age origins (the first part of course) and it ran perfectly on windows 8. And I am sure I had at least 20 or even more more mods on it. Most were graphic enhancer and each cash terms armor and makeup were completely from mods. Playing without mods makes me sad indeed. Guess I ain't shifting to windows 8.1 anytime soon. I haven't checked or tried but are there mods for NFS? Mainly hot pursuit and the latest rivals.

Before I built this 8.1 machine my Skyrim was rock solid stable and I went through a lot of effort to get it that way. I know some of the files didn't transfer when I copied them because it said the file paths were too long or something which is probably why, but... now I'm put into the position of having to go one by one and finding which mod(s) cause my game to CTD then reinstalling them. It's very inconvenient and will probably take weeks to get a good stable Skyrim again.

Kinda puts me off even playing Skyrim since I gave up the really nice save I was on due to the stability issues. I'd CTD like every 5-10 mins at random... I had to quicksave constantly, and use an autosave mod just in case I forgot.

I reconfigured it to an absolute minimal arrangement the other day and it didn't crash for the little bit I played but I think it'll probably take a bit more before Ill know if it's stable or not... then I guess I can try adding like 5 mods at a time.

...so much work.

Well, I don't have time for all that so it'll probably take me a few months before I can actually realistically play it with a serious save that isn't just testing stability. That kinda makes me sad...
This is why you pack the whole thing into 7z files when you've got a solid state you want to use further down to line for something.
Saved my ass from total reinstall a good couple of times.

Because we can!

Dragon Age seriously rustled my jimmies.
I bought it on Steam when it came out.
The game crashed after 5 to 10 minutes, just like with you. I never made it further than like 3 hours in.
Also I got the highest possible pack with a bunch of DLC. That i never got. After multiple tickets with dev.
Dragon Age was probably my biggest fail of the past 5 years, game stability wise.
Having Skryim on launch, this means a lot :P

Dragon Age Origins or Dragon Age II? DAO was extremely stable for me.

Funny. while DAO1 was extremely stable, I don't remember DAO2 ever crashing on me. And yes I had mods in DAO2, though besides the main character armor and weapon mod, I don't think I had another any other.

The realization that I didn't hook my monitors up to my battery backup so every time my power flickers off my monitors turn off even though my computer stays on perfectly fine.

Whenever that happens I always tell myself that my life is quickly turning into a Got Milk? commercial.

Try chocolate milk cereal. No regrets!

How to make steamed thinly sliced beef wrapped in seasoned rice - potatoes, carrots and cut onions to give it taste but not inside, rather outside and next to them. I need the right seasonings for all this ... and I don't know what they are.

Use the recipe I use for my asian styled chicken:
Fill a pan with soy sauce, sugar syrup (the kind you'd put in cocktails), and a dash of dark brown sugar. Let it come to temperature then add in half a sweet onion, sliced as thin as you can (pulverized if you wish). When the onion gets a decent dark brown ish colour & starts to nearly caramelise, add in some pulverized garlic.
If your mixture looks like a brown sticky goop like black caramel with very very tiny bits of scorched onion & garlic in it, it has the right consistensy.
Too liquid? Let cook longer, use less soy sauce next time. Not sweet enough? Add more sugar syrup. Not sticky enough? Add more dark brown sugar.

Remove your mixture from the hot pan & put it in a normal tupperware box with your uncooked meat, in as thin slices as possible. Let soak for 30 minutes to 2 hours depending how strong you want the flavour to be.

Use said meat instead of plain one, see how it works.

... I should find the cooking topic & post what I make during the week :)

Edit 1: Try not to take a white tupperware if you have the choice, if you don't instantly clean it out the brownish tan will never ever ever go away. Soy cause is nasty like that :P

Well, I made a start on SAO today, because the Blu-ray volume 1 I ordered arrived...
I knew I shouldn't have made a start, now I gotta wait for the rest to be released :'(

Either that or find a way to download CBM's copy

^aw yes that would make me sad too.

What also makes me sad is working three nights in a row. I think I've turned into a zombie.
