Yeah man don't get me wrong, a new rig is 110% excitement for a good while! Vista is improving to be honest, I've had a few of the earlier builds and the latest beta 2. The latest installment is a LOT better than previous builds. Edit: For the time being, XP Pro SP2 (With Vista skin) > Vista

New rig coming: pro. Cool features of Vista: none. Hardware related issues to expect: none. Drivers: compatible.

Is that the case in America? If you said that in England you'd get a black eye. It bothers me when people whine about smokers.

Hehe I've sparked a healthy debate. Anyway yeah lmao - my eyes are running at 100hz and the world is only running at 72hz ;) hahahaha. When I go to the resource centre all their boxes have Dell TFTs and when I work on them for an up to an hour my eyes go crazy; I see kaleidoscope light...

Hey, I sit infront of two CRTs running at 100hz each all day, every day. Is this why when I'm not on my PC my eyes flicker like I'm watching a CRT at 60hz?

I've ran all the vista releases to date at 3200x1200 and they've looked fine and clear to me!

Right, thanks for the help - I'm sure this would be enough to get me started... but the aforementioned embedded system does not have a floppy drive... I think I'll just do the install by installing the hard drive in my main system, formatting it and installing XP - then just put it in the...

I was wondering if it was possible to do a network install of XP onto an embedded system that doesn't have a CD drive, but a formatted HDD and an ethernet port. Am I right in thinking I can access my main box's CD drive by sharing it and accessing it via the embedded system through dos and...

Here is a picture of it: http://img.engadget.com/common/images/3060000000059241.JPG?0.7273530521861226 Here is a video of what it does: http://monome.org/media/monome40h.mov They're $500 I think; which means I can't afford one, otherwise I'd already have one.

Thanks for your input; my posts often don't make a lot of sense because it's always 'been a long day' :) Kind Regards

Oh sorry, one more side question: I like to make 3D renders; will I see a big difference in rendering speed from my athlon 2400xp @ 2ghz 133FSB/x15 with 1 gig of RAM at 333mhz/2.5CL when I upgrade to a dual core? Thanks, Mike.

Hiya, I'm on the verge of purchasing a 64bit x2 CPU, a 939 mobo and RAM etc. I was just wondering if the speed of the RAM had to be in sync with the processor as with my athlon I'm running today. Kind Regards, Mike.

Beat me to it :D. Yup, Fraps is the one.

It looks great, Games where you become totally immersed in the realism presented are my favourite :).
