    What is the best solution to stop my psu cable blocking my cpu fan, it keeps falling on top of it. Is twine the answer? :) It needs pinning down with something.

    Also, I want to download DoD 2.0, which is over a 100 megs, can I use a 100MB zip disk and get 100mb worth, then slap the rest on top of it via download when I get home for the weekend?

    Cheers!

    Just download the whole thing onto the HD in college, then zip it using winzip's multiple disk spanning feature. It'll break it up into two files, one on each disk.

    ya can get 130mb out of most zips if ya compress them.

    or if ya wanna download 100mb and the rest at home ya gotta use a download manager, i think getright would be the best for it.

    use plastic cable ties not twine... for obvious reasons.

    and don't most resume programs create a quick filesize snapshot so they know where exactly to resume within a file?
