First my system specs are: Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10GHz (4 CPUs), ~3.1GHz Memory: 8192MB RAM (1333) OS Hard Drive: OCZ Vertex 2 60GB SSD Backup Drive Samsung Spinpoint F4EG 2TB Card name: AMD Radeon HD 6900 Series Card name: AMD Radeon HD 6900 Series Motherboard: Asus...

Thanks for the input guys. I might hold off for a while then. Cause' even if I don't get the new chipset the old ones will still be slashed by a fair bit you would imagine. I'm kind of unsure if I should build it myself or get it customised to how I want it but still pre-built and tested...

This is what I have come up with so far, keeping in mind I will mainly use the PC for gaming but also to perform daily tasks and encode music and video: 60GB OCZ Vertex 2.5inch SSD, SATA, Read 230MB/sec, Write 135MB/sec 159.50 (Main drive) 2000Gb 2TB Western Digital IntelliPower Green SATA-II...

My car:

Re: (NEW) What OS do you use currently? Windows XP Pro SP2. In truth, I'm running TinyXP Rev05 version 2. Lol. Runs like a dream.

Jonny912 gets my vote as well.

I'm not sure if it's real now. 455 565 312 bytes = 444 888 kilobytes. Which is a different size to what DJ-Chris said. So... But yes, it has improved I reckon and yeah, the "extremely slow file copying" has been fixed.

Does mine look like the real deal? I got it from some torrent site. And it was sort of 50/50 as to whether or not it's a genuine SP1. I think the file size is around 435MB,

Haha, same here man. I can't watch it either. I live in remote SA. And have four TV channels: Imparja (Mix of channels 9/10 and some stuff from the NT), Seven Central QLD, SBS, and ABC. Weird that I get stuff from all over the place. But that's what you get for living so far from any major city...

Yeah, I got mine the other day. From somewhere else. Lol. As far as I know, it's the real deal.

Yeah, I use Diskeeper as well. Version 12. Which I believe is the latest and it works fine on Vista x86 and x64. On a side note: Anyone got SP1 for Vista yet?

Windows Installer Clean Up might work. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 - Info http://download.microsoft.com/download/e/9/d/e9d80355-7ab4-45b8-80e8-983a48d5e1bd/msicuu2.exe - Direct link to download.

Will do, just downloaded a dell service manual so I don't bugger anything up... lol Thanks for all the help. Laptop should last me quite a while, especially now once I've read the manual I should be able to upgrade parts when the time comes. :)

Do you think that's a decent price for the 7200 Drive? Most other places I've seen sell them for $150+... So it seems to be a good deal.

Yeah, I figured as much, so it should just be a straight swap hey? Since it's the same model and everything.
