    Does Vista really need this much pagefile?

    With 8GB of ram you certainly can reduce pagefile to 100MB on C:\ and that's it. XP doens't require a pagefile at 2GB+ and Vista 32bit at 4GB+. On 64bit Vista, 8GB+ also eliminates the need of a large pagefile. 100MB on C:\ are required to keep some windows functions and even if you entirely...

    8gb vista install?

    I imaged some Vista x64 Ultimate installations like described above (using Microsoft's imageX) and I can tell that the final size is about 3.3GB. By doing that, I only had to substitute the image within Vista installation DVD, rebuilding the bootable ISO with Vlite and then I got a fully...

    8gb vista install?

    http://www.maingearforums.com/showthread.php?t=990 Set disk usage to 1GB and then perform a cleanup. When imaging, use the parameter /compress maximum, for an example: imagex.exe /compress maximum /scroll /check /capture c: d:\install.wim "Vista Image". It's gonna take longer that way, but...

    Windows 2003 slow network copy after disk power down

    Sounds like a driver issue. It's able to spin up the drives but it fails on setting them back to top speed. What's the disk controller model and what driver's version is installed for it?

    OEM Questions

    OEM's are cheaper for the fact their installation are tied to the hardware you first activate them (and you can legally buy an OEM copy only when you also buy a new hardware item: they are sold together). Retail versions allow you to install them on different machines and activate without...

    Problem Resuming From Sleep - Vista 64 w/ Sp1

    Sounds like a driver issue, specifically video, because the problem happens when coming from sleep state. Nvidia drivers suck. Big time. I bet on their bad drivers. To get sure of it, try the same with native Vista video drivers. In case the BSOD is gone, you found the problem. You can alway...

    HWMonitor works in XP but not in VIsta

    I would say that the Vista SATA driver version you installed could be either malfunctioning or outdated, once you can read temperatures from XP. Try to install other versions on Vista, even older ones, it could give you such a reading. Newer versions aren't always the best ones, specially on...

    Physical Firewall- Check a spec for me

    For the using you want, you bought the best. The problem with cheap firewalls/routers is when it comes to limits, but on regular use they perform nice. Good luck!

    Physical Firewall- Check a spec for me

    The difference will be felt when you push the firewall to the traffic limit. Those which cost 2/3 times more will have acceptable performance drop. On the same situation, that one you chose might drop off and kill your connection.

    Agreed ... I would say that pushing Apple Quicktime on your visitors is not good too. Try Flash instead.
