Hey. Im trying to install Windows XP on a computer that still has Vista on it. The setup checks for all the hardware, and just as the partition part begins, I get a blue screen. It says in the technical info that something is wrong with pci.sys. It also tells me to try and disable caching and...

Vista sucks up so much system resources its not even funny. Even on my dual core X2 3800+ vista doesnt run too fast. Its still fast and all, but nothing compared to XP. I think its a waste, just go with XP. The one thing thats in Vista that XP doesnt have, is it looks pretty, at a cost.

Hmm well im thinking of going with the Habu. Mostly cause it seems to be as good as the G5 (except for the weight things which ill never use anyways), but more importantly cause everyone these days has the G5, and i wana be original lol. Plus I dont wana go all the way to the other end of the...

Well I found a place that has the Logitech G5. The only problem is, that its the old version of it, the one with only one side buttons instead of two which the new blue one has. Should I still get it? And I use wireless for my internet all the time, its the only way I get internet on this...

Hey so anyways, im looking for a new mouse for gaming. I was looking at the Logitech G5, but the store I get things from is out of stock on that one. The G7 is a possibility, but I heard that wireless mouses can have latency issues. I also found this nice (or so it seems) Microsoft mouse. Im...

I already did everything. Its not only when I log into my user, its just when my windows starts in general. Like it will lag to even select which user I wana log into to. Its fricken weird. Im just going to reformat my drives and install a clean version.

Hmm well I have 29 processes running when I start it up. Thats after I removed xfire and bitcomet from system start up. I still have msn on start up, but il leave it there cause i always forget to turn it on. Its a bit faster now, but now fully. It used to be really fast a few months ago, ever...

Hmm ok I tried that, but still it starts up slow. Its like my processor begins running slow, but than speeds up later. Maybe its something to do with AMD Cool & Quiet technology?

Hmm well I have this problem. When I just turn on my computer, it starts up really slow. I mean my P3 started up faster. I dono why. I did virus scans, spybot and ad-aware scans, did defrag, etc. Everything I could think of...yet it still starts up and works really slow for the first 10 minutes...

Hmm ok thanks Raffaz.

Ok, I have this problem, and im not sure how to solve it. Sometimes, at random moments my computer will just restart by itself. And as much I hope im not right, I personally think theres something wrong with my PSU. Could it be a software problem? What do you guys think? My specs: Athlon 64 X2...

Its not really the matter of them being outdated, its the matter of them getting cheaper. Just compare AMD processors. People who bought them just 3 month ago payed so much more than those who bought em now. You can never see into which way technology is going. Its MUCH better to save up the...

You said you will be buying piece by piece? I sure hope you dont mean that you'll be buying the parts one by one as you get money. Prices drop all the time, and new components come out.

Are you stupid or something? If anyon would give me a free $500 video card, id get a heart attack from happiness. Plug that damn thing in and thank your friend every single time you see him!!!!! And no, there isnt. Plus, even if they could, there is no way they can prove that you did it, that...

$500 for a gaming PC? I spend $1500 CAD on mine, and its not even top of the line.
