Just remember the Windows 7 you where running was an RC at best if not a Beta. The final version comes out next month.

With best for gaming in mind you can't even include Windows XP since it it limited to Direct X 9 and the newest games all use or will use Direct 10 (or even 11 which Windows 7 comes with). So that just leaves Vista and Windows 7 as your only two choices. Windows 7 is so much smoother and...

MSE is rock solid and very low on system resources. It's on par with NOD32 and Kaspersky which is what I would expect from a Microsoft product. It's certainly better then any of the free ones out there. Sometimes Microsoft can be slow to the party i.e. they should have released an AV years...

Paint which is built into Windows can convert between quite a few file formats.

I'd say do the upgrade when Windows 7 comes out. You said you have a copy of Windows 7 RC which will expire March 1st 2010. You should be able to upgrade it with a retail copy of Windows 7 with a little work around though.

You can use a program like Eraser Portable to over write the free space on your hard drive. Programs like this can't get everything 100% but they are close and will work fine unless your in the NSA or CIA.

Your video card has crapped out on you. You need to replace it with a add-on graphics card. You eliminated the monitor and cable as the source of the trouble since you swaped them out.

In Vista the same disc works for both retial and OEM versions. Most OEM PCs don't come with disc anymore, which should be illegal.

I'd like to point out that Yahoo provides you with the embed code themeselves so I'm sure it's legal.

You say your fan is working but your computer likely has 3 fans on it. The CPU fan, the PSU fan and a case fan in all likley hood.

I'm thinking it's you who sucks. Vista is a nice OS. I find everytime I run into some one who has a issue with Vista it's typically something wrong with them.

What are you computer specs? Anymore if you have a CPU that's under 3Ghz or are short on RAM lots of websites run like crap.

You were looking around and found them. How do you know they are malware files then? What are the files? It certainly sounds as if your paranoid to me.

JorgeHGPR you got that one right. You can take all the stories and forum posts from 2001 and replace XP with Vista and they'd be exactly the same. Bla bla not compatable, makes computer slow, not good for gaming, nothing usefull. Now just as then it's all crap spouted out by people who don't...

In general what you buy Apple products you have to pay what's known as the "Apple tax." Apple PCs use the same parts as Windows but Apple chargers twice as much or more.

I honestly have to question your temps your reporting. 110c would be 230F. Your card would literaly be on fire if it really got that hot. The autoprotect would kick in long before that anyway. The program your using to read the temp is either not fully compatable with your card or your card...

Now for the real answear not guesses. Green pixles like your describing are a result of bad video RAM. It makes sense the more demainding the task the more video RAM gets used and the more likley you are to "use" the bad RAM on the card. Basic computer tasks may be just fine depending on...

I bought a Lightscribe burner for my new build I figured what the hell. I really didn't think I'd use it much but I started and can't stop now. Yes the burn times for a full disc label is just under 20 minutes in the best mode. I like having the lightscribe labels they are a lot better and...

It happens no biggy.
