The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Help with my computer

Recently, I tried to load a game on my computer. It did not work, and I checked to make sure the disk was not scratched. It wasn't, so I checked the CD rom drive. It said there was no space left. How do I get more space? I tried deleting programs, trying to refresh, nothing worked.

Any help would be much appreciated.

What game was it? And what operating system do you have?

I tried multiple disks, including Jurassic Park Operation Genesis, Star Wars Empire at War, and Zoo Tycoon 2. None worked. Also, I have windows 8.

Have you tried running the programs in compatibility mode?  I have to do that for some of my older games in Windows 7.


Go ahead and check out my fanfictions, The Seven Hunters, Songs of the Hunters, and Menders Tale.

I know how to run compatibility mode, though that's not the actual problem. When I put any disk in the computer, there isn't even any sign its even in there. The computer just doesn't read the disks. I tried the DVD drive, and it said there was no space left.

Maybe you need to buy another DVD drive for the computer.
