AlterIW iw_22.iwd file is incorrect – Fix it
Just a few unlucky guys (like me) get this error when trying to start Call Of Duty Modern Warfare II with AlterIW net.
“The main/iw_22.iwd file is incorrect
The problem with this error is that it does not give you any actual hint on how to solve this problem. The file is correct, try reinstalling from scratch but you will only be wasting your time.
Actually the problem is a networking one!!! no not a file mismatch or corruption. Just go here and follow the method the same that I used to play Resident Evil 5 on LAN
I quote this from that page :
On Vista, open the “Network and sharing center”
From the left pane select “manage network connections”
press the “ALT key” on your keyboard. the top menus will appear
Select “advanced settings” from the menu “advanced”
Use the arrows to move your LAN card up in the list then save everything.
Thats That my friend, Enjoy AlterIW and don’t cheat or noob tube.
Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands, Stuck behind a closed door?
Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands along with many other UBISOFT games are now using a new DRM protection, the idea behind it very smart, instead of just protecting the game by DVD checks, hardware codes, and encryptions, each of which became just a pass-time for hardcore crackers like SKIDROW, RELOADED, or ViTALiTY. Now the protection method is to hide some small parts of the game inside a server, which checks the validity of your game before allowing these portions of the game to execute. this is the secret behind the new notice on the games “This game requires a permanent internet connection to play”
In the case of prince of Persia , the aspects of the game that are controlled by this server are :
- Levers logic
- Door timing
- Upgrades
- Abilities
- XP & Levels
- Area codes
so in case your connection to the server fails any of these may become problematic or behave unexpectedly.
So if you are stuck behind a closed door, you may want to check your internet connection, that is of course if you are not using the early cracked version by SKIDROW that has reported this bug and that was fixed in their later released crack fix.
Needless to say, as the gamers are furious against this new type of protection many of them started attacking the game servers with thousand of denial of service attacks, in the goal to make games unplayable even for rightful owners, and by that forcing the companies to refrain from using this protection method ever again.
Are you with or against this new DRM?
iphone not recognized by itunes but as a camera: Solution
I don’t really know the origin of this bug. But for some reason an iphone 2G 8G has stopped getting recognized by itunes for no reason. It only shows on My Computer as a Digital camera.
The solution is rather simple, but it does not clarify why it happened. But it is probably a bug in itunes.
To fix this, go to the device manager in your computer (right click my computer, manage , device manager). Look for the iphone under the USB devices tab. (the iphone should be connected while you do this. Delete the iphone’s driver ( click yes on the wanrning message).
Now hit check for new devices on the top bar in the device manager. The iphone’s driver will install again, and itunes should recognize it now.
If it is of any significance, this bug was noted on the latest version of itunes on windows 7 64bit
Do you have any idea why did this happened? this this work for you? please comment
ATI Catalyst installer crashing when installing driver version 9.8
When I was installing the new Radeon driver v9.8 the installer kept crashing before the installation started on windows vista 64.
The solution is simple, just go here

Did you sense any improvements with the new CCC 9.8?

Generally, when you get this error when sending a message from microsoft outlook, it is because you did not enable authentication for outgoing emails.
To fix this error open the outlook “tools menu” and select “account settings” , from there select “Change” while selecting the account you want to use from the list. Now click the “More settings” button and select “outgoing server”, click “My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication” and keep “Use same settings as for my incoming mail server”
Press Ok , next , finish, close, die
try it now, it should be working.
Fix desktop crashing into 16 color display mode
Problem: When Windows Xp starts, the display reverts to a low resolution 16 color mode.
Cause: Generally this is caused by a malfunctioning display adapter driver, I have seen it on built-in VGAs from intel.
Solution: reinstall the display driver, if you still have the same problem, uninstall the VGA driver and do not install a driver for it again, windows will just use software support to display your desktop correctly. but you still wont be able to play games or correctly view movies until you find a working driver and install it.
