I see. That makes sense. My anti-virus was telling me that an attack was on port 1434, so I wanted to make sure everything was safe.
Thanks for your elaborate, logical, and sound explanation. It really makes a difference with the mediocrity of people that can surround a community....

What the hell are you talking about? Spit on fire? You sound like a true idiot. Why do you even bother to post your stupid comment. It isn't helping and it just makes you stand out like a dunce. Sometimes I wonder why people even bother to say something stupid, when they should know better to shut their mouths....Leave a comment:

I LOVE YOU ADMIN AND EVERYONE HERE!
I understand your point of view. Nobody likes a jerk. But sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do, even if you lose friends. And I had to do something to change the atmosphere here. We need guidelines and structure in answering technical questions. That is very important and we don't have that.

See this is what I mean. Unclear and vague answers like these are exactly what's wrong with today's forums. You can have 1000 people in a forum and about 90% will give you a **** answer like this.

I looked up my system information and discovered that my BIOS is dated back to 4/25/2003 version 4.
I looked up the website for where my computer is manufactured and found that there is a now a version 10.
I am well aware that updating your BIOS can cause major problems if it is not done correctly.

If I do, can I... -
