What should I do?

[Jaffa Cakes!]

Hello,

Once my new build is built and Vista is installed, is there anything you guys would recommend I should do?

[Lamont Cranston]

this is an extremely vague question, but my first thought would be ....... Activate it

 

[WildMonkey]

PR0N!!! LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS OF STICKY DELICIOUS PR0N!!1!!!1!

I meant, is there any programs or anything in peticular I should do?

 

[drdeutsch]

Install a spell/grammar checker.

 

[crhscoog]

get anti virus/ firewall stuff?

 

[TheMostWantedPolishTwin]

yeah, install a firewall - that's usually the first thing I do on a fresh system

 

[digital_exhaust]

Install A/V... and then, um..... use your computer?

And really, Vista's firewall is pretty good.. much better than XP's in my opinion.

 

[Hurdler]

Enjoy your new computer?

If you want specifics:

1) Install anti-virus, spyware or whatever you fancy.

2) Run Windows update.

3) Test your CPU for stability with Prime 95.

4) Test your Memory for stability with Memtest.

5) Benchmark your Video Card with 3dMark XX.

6) Check out CPU-Z or GPU-Z?

7) Most importantly - download Porn, POrn, PORn and did I mention more PORN?!?

Also invest in plenty of keyboard cleaning supplies if d/ling Pr0n

 

[AMD_Gamer]

just test it out with all the benchmarks if you are a gamer get the latest 3dmark 03, 05 and 06 then if everything is good game away!

Uninstall it and put XP on. Pron runs a lot better on XP.
