wow, i haven't been here in a looong time but i remember you having problems, kornowski. to be honest, i think it's your motherboard. From my experience (working with a friends EVGA 790i), nvidia chipsets are CRAP and are unstable, especially the 7 series.

lol its not my dad but thanks!

thats not my business, thats up to him. thanks for the help though! ill tell him about lojack, but its kinda pointless now.

yes it did, thats the problem.

my friends dad got his laptop stolen and just got his laptop back. is there any way to see what files were opened? the IE history is deleted so we dont know what web pages were surfed.

HP Pavilion 8556c (mid 1999) Pentium III 450 Mhz 128MB SDRAM later 384MB 20GB Hard Drive... later 160GB Nvidia Riva TNT2 8MB

then how does cooler master afford to make $700 cases that are still ugly?

my friend has the HP above and he has a 9500GS. same as a 8600gt. and the dell xps line has dedicated video cards.

imo, those look extremely cheap (even though they aren't by any means), and even if they are great, they are still ugly. /\ the one above is amazing, looks amazing on the outside and it has an awesome back-lit power button on the top of the case!

For some reason, major companies have nicer/better looking cases that are also quieter. It seems as if no third-party company can make a nice case with great fit and finish. Even antec! the antec 900 still feels cheap to me and it sounds like there is a jet sitting next to you. (i know since my...

well more updates and fixes. no?

but by then wont there be another beta out? and if not, i have a work around for the timer.

is it worthy of using as a main os?

lol. not a problem. but ya, 5400 to 7200 should make a nice difference.

k. thanks! :)

so does the cache really make a big difference? i know 32 > 4 :P

its a seagate ST3250620A, 7200RPM. windows 7 gives it a rating of 3.0. vista gives my seagate SATA II hard drive a rating of 5.9. edit: could that be 8mb vs, 16mb of cache?

hey CF, i have IDE and SATA II hard drives hooked up. will running an OS off of the IDE hard drive make the OS run slower than it would if it were on the SATA II hard drive? thanks
