Not sure this is the right sub-forum to put this in but here goes. Looking to get a new monitor, I mostly use my PC for just web browsing/office stuff, but I casually game on it like just got Tropico 4 and am waiting for stupid SWTOR (why is it taking so long!). Actually once SWTOR comes out...

I figured it out, my pc was being dumb. The USB needed to be listed under hard drives in the BIOS in order to boot from it I guess. Transferred my iTunes over so far without a hitch. Even updated my iPad flawlessly, now doing my iPhone (which hasn't been updated in months).

Ummmm is this Ubuntu on the USB drive one time use only or something? Just tried to boot to it for the 2nd time after having used Win7 for the last few days and now it says to restart and put in a media with a bootable OS (something to that effect).

I got home late and didn't get a chance to look at this but wanted to double check where the folder is I need to copy. I'm guessing not the program files since there has been a new version of iTunes since this happened. Is it in My Documents or some obivous place? Thanks

So will it know my account from one of the files I copy then, do I need to do any sort of activation myself? Oh and two the one guy about the two drives. Yeah that is what I normally do, but I wanted to swtich drives (primary and storage) so install Win7 on the "old" storage drive and then...

Is there any particular order I need to do this iTunes restore in? I've installed iTunes on the good drive last night, but haven't opened the program yet nor copied anything. Was just getting ready. So do I just opened, close it, then copy my stuff and then activate my account. OR do I...

Put Ubuntu on a usb drive and worked like a freak'n charm! Used the link Cheessy gave and couldn't have been more effortless! Took 15mins to download the OS, other than that it was fine. You have NO idea how happy I am about this! Now I just need to free up space on my good drive to copy...

No it doesn't let you do anything on the black screen other than move the mouse, ctrl+alt+delete doesn't do anything and there is no task bar. So with these from CD/USB options, so it'll just act like a 3rd drive with an OS, and just (hopefully) let me copy stuff from the Vista drive to the...

No I have not tried Ubuntu, where would I get that? I'm not that familar with Linux I did try to repair and it did nothing, it didn't fine anything wrong, though my VISTA disc did "repair" my Win7 drive and f'd up the boot sequence for a while, it had the Vista loading bar instead of the...

So yeah I have this 220GB Maxtor drive with Vista 64-bit installed on it. This happened a few months back but I was in the process of upgrading to Win 7 64bit on a Raptor drive I have. I installed Win7 fine on the other drive and after a few back and forths the Vista drive now only boots to a...

Oh I will and to at least 2.6Ghz but I'll see how close to 3.0Ghz I can get on cooling. Some prelimaries so far 3DMark03 - 24566 3DMark05 - 9980 (I honestly forget exactly, I need to rerun it got real close to 10k I know) 3DMark06 - 6064 All on stock everything so far. Looking into...

Not sure if this is the right forum but any who. I just built my new system on Feb 7th but been out of town till now so I thought I'd post it. It should be updated on my System Specs on the left. I haven't overclocked it yet but as it's running idle at 27-28C on stock I'd say the outcome...

Well I would be patience but I've heard the AM2's aren't till march, I don't want to spend a lot on how much those things will cost, I broke my X800pro on New Year's weekend and haven't been able to play PC games for almost a month now cause I still have an AGP slot! And that kind of sucks...

Was looking at getting an Athlon64 X2 3800 or 4400 (if price drops, heard it is suppose too soon) because for I use my computer for dual cores would benefit me. Well now I've been reading about the Opteron 165 dual-core and how it's way better than the X2 and can overclock to close to FX60...

Ok that is what I did Solaris17, except for I did the AthlonX2 datasheet number. I just didn't see where it said anything about stickers or case badges on there so I got confused was all. Sorry :o
