I used to defrag all the time, too, but nowadays with 500GB drives, I don't bother much. Diskeeper is kind of the gold standard amongst...
Resolved! I just don't understand why this happened all of a sudden. I did NOTHING as far as messing with drivers, or manipulating any settings....
Yes, ideally, you want at least 2GB of RAM for 32-bit systems, and 3-4GB for 64-bit installations. RAM is cheap, so you can just pick one up on...
Yes, it will be OEM. The two OS's are very similar in both visual effects, looks, Aero, etc., but most drivers should also work, and eventually...
I've tried re-installing the drivers. I've tried to monkey around all the settings (not that I changed anything. I did this just for my own...
Yea, well, I don't know about this 80C being "just fine" for a computer...any computer. I think I remember Vista x64 to be quite a bit hotter...
Yes, sir, it is the T7600. There are two versions of it? Well, it's the 64-bit capable Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.33GHz, and I'm currently forcing it to...
Quick question: I keep getting very hot temperatures on my PC. CPU Temp's exceeding 80 deg. Celcius!! I need to redo the Arctic Silver 5....
IBM/Lenovo Thinkpads all the way! ;)

Thanks for the responses! Steve..Well, I definitely need 2 1/2 GB of RAM, so I guess I'd be good to go either way still. However, I just read an...
Alright, so I've been running Vista Ultimate 64-bit for over 18 months now, and with Windows 7 on the horizon, I'd like to revisit the issue of...
Yea, you're probably right. We're coming close to the RTM release anyway. With Vista, Microsoft gave developers just short of 2 months (December...
Curve 8900, Curve 83xx, Bold, Pearl, Storm, 88xx series...doesn't matter. Can you please PM me or respond here if you own one (or two :D) of the...
I thought SP1 did away with the mandatory driver signing??
When do you think (know?) that the RTM will drop? We're at the RC stage, correct? For some reason, I'm nowhere nearly as excited about, or...
Are you a collector? ;)
Yea, I hear ya. When re-installing Vista, I also no longer wish to "test" Vista SP2. I couldn't ask for more with my setup. As for the haters....
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.33GHz (T7600). Runs like a champ. :)
Thanks Arie...I just re-installed Vista Ultimate x64, and am now running Windows 7 x64 in a dual-boot configuration. I'm almost glad this...
