Only to a certain extent. You can not usually match single-sided to double-sided, or if the sticks have different controller chips.

Reply to Computer only recognizes 1 GB RAM in Personal Computing GalCiv2 Forums

Nesrie, read! "two available ram slots" With a MB that can accept 2GB of RAM, that means 2 1GB sticks. "I never followed it"... That's for sure. Stay out of the discussion if you don't know what you're talking about.

Reply to Computer only recognizes 1 GB RAM in Personal Computing GalCiv2 Forums

RAM does not have to be identical, but it has to be compatible. Your two sticks don't work with each other. Either exchange the Kingston for a matching Micron, or buy a matching module for either. As a note... if one is single-sided and the other double-sided - they won't work together.

Reply to Global warming hoax!?! - UPDATED - in Everything Else GalCiv2 Forums

C'mon, really. The current warming trend has let us go from getting by, to getting with. It has let us relax a little, to get on with research and development - instead of simply trying to kill our next meal to stay alive for another day. The ice core records show that the earth has been a very cold place in the past. It has been in a warm cycle for longer than usual, which has given us an advantage. Are we to try and reverse the advantage simpl

On the other hand... That ice core record provides evidence of Atlantis, and other advanced (and long past, highly evolved) civilizations. They were all destroyed after they reached a certain industrial capacity, thereby pumping so much CO2 into the air that the earth went nova and drowned them all because all the ice melted.

Y'all like graphs, so perhaps you would like to take a look at this one.

It shows the temperature variation for the past 400,000 years - from the Vostok, Antarctica ice core. What I find most interesting is that we are currentl

Yes, it's cheating. You are stacking the deck for your home system. You could start with out with a PQ85 home planet and a PQ78 secondary (or, whatever). Just with that, since virtually all tiles would be available on both planets, you would be able to build all the construction and econ buildings needed to complete 2 ships per turn. You would also be able to build research buildings that would let you jump far ahead of any competition (two techs per turn - assu

Many men of honor may be in the U.S. military, but many honorable soldiers served in the Wehrmacht, too.

Thanks for editing the OP. The colors made it very hard to read, and I wasn't about to spend an hour trying to find a typo. But, I think that is what you will have to do, assuming you are placing the file in the correct location (you didn't say which folder you had the file in). You are using the 'Mods' folders, correct, and not simply editing the original files in their original locations? The Mod structure is such tha

The hardpoints are inside the ships (near the rear), and they are very small. You can place components by simply double-clicking the component. It will automatically place itself on a hardpoint. It was done this way to keep the models looking like they should. I mean, who wants to have a bunch of engines and junk on the outside of those ships? If you zoom in all the way to where you are inside the model itself you should be able to see the hardpoints. But good luck try

A single sentence answer is enough, if that would be enough to answer the question. But, 'designed and built' would infer an intelligence.
