BTW, Just for the record Ss, I'm using an Abit AN7 MB....very stable without a hint of trouble!

It's really moot for myself anyway stark(I'm sticking with XP regardless), but I just wanted to compare what someone else comes up with after scaning their PC with the WinVista advisor...the first two selections: Strengthen Security & Search and Organize as you know are chosen by default since both come with all editions....I then picked Elegant User Experience w/Windows Aero & all came out fine - this is were I get the "ALL CLEAR" Vista Home Pr
That's strange Sir starkers because,( I don't want to bore you with this), I'm running AMD/Xp 3200+(Barton core) with Corsair XMS 1.2gig DDR SDRAM dual channel 3200LL...also my video card is an ATI X850XT 256mb Platium Edition - you'd think I'd be past at least the Home Premium Edition, but not according to the upgrade advisor!! <img src="ht
Bash2cool, THX BIGTIME for taking the time with posting your system....I knew I should have gone to an Intel processor two years ago.
Bash2cool, Could you please tell me the basic components that make-up your computer....just the cpu, video card, & memory?? Thx, I'd really appreciate it!!! Mine is a 2004 model & only gets up to WVHP. Thx! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Smile.gif" border=
desiRex, Just wanted to ask if you'd be kind in posting your basic PC components; CPU, MB, Vid-Card, Memory(type & ammount)....Just wanted to know since I DL the WinVista Advisor for my 32bit system: Athlon 3200+, Abit AN7, ATI-256MB/X850XT PE, Corsair 1GB-(TOTAL) CMXS512-3200LL(two sticks). After the scan I received an "OK" for the Vista Home Premium package. THX for the info!! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Smile.gif" bord
Please....don't go giving them ideas! If their suit against MS fails, that might be their next step....if not Moby Dick, the minnow will do. Sir starkers,..... <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Laugh.
The personal pages are down! How will I go on. Oh, the humanity of it all!! Now that's melodrama. Ross... <img src="http://
Thank GOD I'm privy to this website...I just about bought the Norton Suite package - AV/Spyware/Ghost the works! Thx Paul - you saved me alot of unnecessary HEADACHES!!
I've had the same problems like WebGizmos & kenwas but just take it as it comes & hope for the best...sometimes changing off browsers helps; FireFox/Avant/Opera, etc...I don't think these problems will ever be fully ameliorated simply because of the high traffic here in all areas & sections. Hope the new super server works! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/sm
I think your right Chasbo!!! Now especially with duel video cards in Sli/Crossfire, duel core cpu's, 8+ gigs of memory, multiple HDD's in Raid config,...you name it!!! PC's have really hit the high rent district for certain...the one aspect however that keeps me from buying a Mac is the ability(with PC's) to totally control customization over both the software & hardware I choose. Intel/AMD(processor), Abit, Asus, ESC,Gig
Paul, I've always wondered how long it would take to scan 4 physical HDD's in RAID configuration along with having to defrag all that space as well....guess when you start you just leave everything running & hit the hay!!! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles
Sounds good....obviously there's going to be problems/fixes needed since Vista will be so new. I really don't care for console/game players like Xbox & PS with SLI/Crossfire available. It's great MS is working all of the added features toward PC gamers like myself. Thx Brad! <img
Mr Incoherent, Appreciate the experience(info)you've had using AVAST! I think I'll try it!
I'm seeing 11 posts of the same article Brad....is my computer off tilter??? Agree with ID, of course.
THX!!! To everyone here posting comments & links...I really appreciate output from others having at least used many of these software AV/SW programs - the BEST indorsement of all!! I ins
Love this registry cleaner - was hoping for something like this! THX Cavan1!!
Himangshu, This is a super graph display comparison....I really appreciate you input!!
Thx tons Mithun Pal for this information on AV/SW - Wonder if BitDefender ways heavily on system resources??? Alot of AV/SW apps really degrade system performance & speed...after uninstalling various AV software I've noticed a big speed boost like just after a fresh install of Win.Xp. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Smile.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddl
ID, I'm not the greatest PC game geek in the world but I'd stick with Nvidia - they seem to have got a jump on ATI this time around & even checking cus. comments at sites like Newegg the AGP cards (for example the 7800GS') which are still available are getting rave reviews with cpu's like your present one!! I can't imagine what the newer SLI/PCI-E ones are like!!! This might be a better "stopgap" alternative than replacing MB/Ram
Great image viewer & if you want a great icon to go with it 47songs made a beauty I requested & uploaded it to the misc. icon section. Irfanview has alot going for it, but FS is awesome!! Thx ID!! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Smile.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddl
Hysterical... ....Thx for posting this Brad I needed the laugh!!! I don't think I've ever seen a fire engine red laptop before!! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Laugh.gif" border=0
Remember the UI at this site back then??? It HAS come along way!!! Thx Jimbo!
Brad, The site's alot faster now!! Thx!
Your right Drop125....only thing was LaserDisc never could RECORD anything on TV/Cable - just play back - but the picture was so superior!
