    Couple of questions about an upgrade

    Gonna order them soon! Was just playing F.E.A.R on my pc (see sig) and it plays ok, but I have to turn down alot of the settings, hopefully make it look alittle nicer with teh new card! Just out of interest, do you have the deluxe or non-deluxe version of the Asus A8n-SLi Ren?

    Couple of questions about an upgrade

    Hmm I would go for more power but 600W's seems alot.. Not sure If I will need that much, and If I really need to then I could always just buy another one. Thanks for your answers though Ren.182, pretty certain about the mobo and gfx card because it seems like a really good price for it. Will...

    Couple of questions about an upgrade

    Thanks for the reply, I think that a 7800gt will be fine. As for the motherboards, i'll check out the spec sheets for them to find out the real differences in the 2. Think the psu will be fine, got a good review in customPC and they really tested them throughly.

    xp install problem

    I wouldn't do that, I would phone them up and get a new prod key since you bought the software. They should give you a new one.

    Firefox Error (Weird buttons/graphics help)

    Do you have any themes installed? Not sure if they affect browser buttons that are actually on the page, but I would try reverting back to the standard ff theme. If you are having trouble starting FF then open it via the safe mode shortcut in teh program files folder in the start menu.

    What is...

    Azureus is the best one I have used. Pretty easy to use, loads of control over torrents, loads of features, free and open source! What more can you ask for! http://azureus.sourceforge.net/

    Microsoft Windows Vista

    I like the name now, didn't at first, but I have to say that it does look cool. If you can use the effects like the transparency etc in custom themes, then that should be cool, get a really ace lookign theme to go with it because I always think that the standard windows themes are alittle chunky.

    Got the X-Fi soundcard, now I need headphones!

    I know that you can get 5.1 surround sound earphones which are supposed to be really good. Think they are made my a company called speedlink or medusa, something like that. Also Sennheiser are a decent make. Zalman surround sound earphones are pretty good too.

    abnormally slow performance

    is it slow all the time, like when you start up or when you try and run a program?

    Enough >?

    I'd say that your 6600gt will be fine for a while yet, I mean my 9800pro still runs fear (not the best, but it does if you turn off some of the nice effects) and it runs hl2/cs:s great also. When you need to, you should upgrade your video card, but stick with what you have just now.

    Which Explorer Do You Use?

    I use Deer Park Alpha 2 and its great, couldn't see many new features in the FF beta 2 and plus the extension/theme support is pretty bad. I'll get it when there is more extension support.

    Simple Reformatting Question

    I think that as you install windows, it adds the driver for the sata controller so i can see the drive during installation. if you format, it gets rid of the drivers and can't see it when it comes to install, I think, not totally sure though. EDIT: I hit F6 anyway and just install the drivers...
