  • XP & Vista Dual Boot

    I have an old gateway with XP installed on it and was wondering if I could transfer the OS to a new computer and buy the Vista upgrade disc as opposed to the retail version to save a couple of bucks.  Is this possible?

  • Avoid SATA problems if I just install Vista?

    I have been going crazy with (what I assume is) the SATA/XP problem. I have a Gigabyte GA-G31M-S2L and I am trying to do a clean install of XP Pro SP2 onto an IDE drive (install would reboot suddenly when trying to install onto a SATA hd). Gigabyte does NOT have the SATA/RAID drivers available for this particular board ...

  • HDD's failing... maybe mobo?

    I've had my rig for a little over 5 months now.  I've always experienced some issues with the PC (if I play a bunch of videos back to back, or skip through them in WMP, my comp crashes), but I didn't think much of them.  Within the past month, my PC has been crashing with some regularity.  Vista said it was due to the NVIDIA SATA ...

    So I have the basic home network set up on all my machines at home with XP.  I have some stuff on my computer, like music and movies, that I share across the network.  However, my sister came home from college this summer and her machine has Vista.  The only thing I was able to get her to see on the network was whatever I uploaded ...

  • Re: New Desktop Virtual Server Build (DFI + Q6600)

    Update on this machine: With two exceptions, it's running very well.  WinXP x86 SP3, Win2003 x86 SP2, and Win2003 x64 SP2 all very stable.  Both Win2003's see all of the 8GB I have on the machine.  And the RAID10 architecture on the ICH9R southbridge is also doing quite well (I'm running several SQL Server projects on it). ...

  • What do YOU want in an OS?

    Ok, here is my opinion.  Feel free to disagree or agree with me on anything :)  With the recent flub of Microsoft's flagship software, Windows' new version of Vista, and the constant growth of alternative computer operating systems such as SuSE, debian, Ubuntu Linux, I believe it comes down to US as users of software to tell the ...
