Thanks, that's comforting to know. I'm still a but unsure though. Anyways, it's been over a year since the last time I was on this forum; I really just lost interest in tech and whatnot. But I still remember your username and that you've already helped me out in the past. It's good to see that the community is still strong.

Guys I have been using nexus mod manager since the beginning, and I have no conflicts in my load order; all my mods are working its just that the error message comes every time I play (even when I launch it through NMM)

I sure know I do. To be specific, I pirate movies. Before you all tell me I'm a lowly scum who doesn't pay for my shit, hear me out.
 
As you can see in my profile, I live in Saudi Arabia. For the most part, it isn't the tent-filled, camel-dotted country many people think it is. We have computers, high-speed internet, the latest (consumer) technology, international schools, and many more things that a "desert" wouldn't have otherwise. Getting back to the topic at hand, one of the things missing here are cinemas. There was one, but it closed down. So now there are no cinemas, which means no movies. So you either have to:
 
1) Go to a local shop that sells movies for dirt cheap, but the quality video & audio quality of those movies is quite frankly shit, and they're not legit, so the money you pay isn't going to the movie makers anyways.
 
2) Go to a trusted brand like Virgin to get the blue ray movies legit, but it's a COMPLETE ripoff. I've traveled to Bahrain, and in the City Center mall they have over there, movie tickets are around the equivalent of 12 dollars. Not bad, right? So why pay the equivalent of 93 dollars at Virgin to watch a movie?
 
By now most of you have gotten my point, but some of you are probably about to smash through your screen telling me: "Netflix bro!" "Use Hulu" or something along those lines. Since Netflix and Hulu are US only, those are invalid solutions. But the more tech-savvy among you still do not see this as an excuse  to pirate. Well, I know what you're thinking. "Use a VPN and you're set." That is true; but the thing is that porn websites are blocked in Saudi Arabia, because porn is haram (forbidden) in Islam. Because they are blocked, many people use VPNs to view those websites. So the general idea among the public is:" Oh look, he has a VPN, he's a bad boy." So by getting rid of one problem (Streaming services being US only), I get myself tangled into a much bigger problem (seriously, watching porn is a big deal here).
 
So that's why I pirate my movies, because I have no other choice. Do you think this justifies pirating movies? Or do you think that there is no excuse whatsoever for stealing content? Leave your thoughts below!

The best one I've experienced is when people call any form of internet "wifi"

so this one time I was hanging out with my friend who is the manager at a tech shop by where I live and a girl comes in and buys a 2tb hard drive. we let her know that we install hard drives for $1 (the cost of the sata cable we use) and she says "just because I am a woman does not mean I cant work on computers" and leaves in a huff. two days later she comes back in saying that the HDD is not working so we take the computer in to look at it, we open it and the HDD is nowhere to be seen, so we ask her where it is. and it turns out that she scanned it and put the scanned image on her desktop to install the drive. and to top that off she threw away the drive she paid almost $200 for and she wanted us to give her a new one.

Shift + Insert pastes just like Ctrl + V does. 

The Delete key deletes the character in front of the cursor whereas the Backspace key deletes the key behind it. 

Shift + Home highlights everything from the cursor to the beginning of the line, while Shift + End does the same for everything from the cursor to the end of the line in a text editor.

The Spacebar can be used to navigate a web page the same way Page Down can. Shift + Spacebar is Page Up.

Ctrl + Shift + Esc opens the Task Manager.

More to come (not just keyboard shortcuts).

I decided to get "avast!", and I'll update this thread later on my experience with it. Cheers.

It's the only monitor I have right now, and I chose the 760 because I am gonna get a new monitor eventually, and until then destroying games is nice.
Yes it did.
- I asked this because when I use the adapter that comes in the box to plug my monitor into my 760, the resolution is fu**ed up, the closest resolutions to 144x900 are 1366x768 and 1600x900, and both of  them look weird on this monitor. NVIDIA don't support 1440x900, so after some fiddling around, I added the 1440x900 resolution and now everything works perfecly... thanks for your help!
