RE: VERY strange...webcam on with pc off
think you need to read my post again.

computer turned off means no harddrive
no harddrive means no windows
no windows means no messager &/or drivers for the webcame to work

* toddy guesses what you actually did was turn the monitor off

Ok mr knowitall...first of all stop saying that i dont know how a pc works...i know i am not a pro but i have a very good idea of it...

Second is that i dont think my girl is that dump that she thought her pc was off while just her monitor was...

Last thing i will tell her to do this again and i will record it on video and show it to you!!

Hope that will stop you from thinking i am dumb!!

I opened this thread because i thought there was anyone that had an idea why this happened not telling me that i dont know what i am doing!!

"Second is that i dont think my girl is that dump"

lol.

If the computer is not on, there is no way the webcam can be on, end of story. What do you want us to say? it was magic?

Your gf is most likely putting the comp in sleep without knowing.

OMFG! It's a virus! ¬_¬

The mouse light is powered by the USB as I said about your webcam. HOWEVER, the mouse DOES NOT WORK when the PC is OFF does it? No, because the OS isn't running and more importantly, there are NO DRIVERS for it do anything.

HER PC WAS STILL TURNED ON... fucking "programmer" can't figure the simplest thing out.

js code:
if(pc_power === false && webcam_power()){
    webcam_is_off_retard();
}else if(pc_power === false && !webcam_power()){
    var ohnoesvirus = true;
    try{
        var ret = fool_everyone();
    }catch(bradyramone){
        Debug.Print("bradyramone was caught out");
        return "Not a very good programmer";
    }
    return "Oh yeah, it WAS still on";
}else if(pc_power === true){
        //Most likely cause
        return "ITS STILL FUCKING ON DUMBASS";
}

EDIT: Fixed code. I know it's not real, but I'm not gonna stand here and have broken code ^o)

Yeah, I'm strange... but I understand the basic principles of how a PC works :p

And no, I don't stand (figure of speech obviously) ;) I squat



I also notice he's the only one that was worried about it, just after I was gonna put the only reason to be scared is if it happened the other way around and you were pounding :refuck:
