Horse manure!! Sorry Mail-Man but you can backup the Origins/Games folder that has the game installers in that folder simply back up to a spare hard drive or external like 1Kurgan1 does.I have tried this in my Win8 DP system and worked like a charm it said for Dead Space 2 ready to install when I copied over the folders.You can also back up the folders to multiple DVD`s or Dual Layer or just leave them on a hard drive.And there is NO download limit on the games Read Origin Faq under downloads.

And then you were all like:

Kinda hard to do that when EA is using my name from 5 years ago. Plus they refuse to change it. BS total BS (in lemur king voice) "ohh we can't change that ohhh."

I asked them to change mine and it took them less then 5 mins.

Just 2 days before the Beta and either my MotherBoard or PSU decided to crap out on me.

Currently running some tests.

My PSU has warranty still and I was going to get a new Motherboard anyways, however this is an unfortunate delay....:banghead:

Story: Leave home with computer on and go to work.

Come back from work with computer off... Oh O... Turn PC on, nothing... unplug pc wait a few secondes turn on pc (Everything comes on for a second then turns off).

My reaction.

Fuck meeee.....:cry:

Well PSU worked in another PC so that leaves the MB. I bought it used off of someone here on TPU (don't remember who).

Guess its life telling me to go buy that New Asus Crosshair V :)

EA is a bit of a dick, I was trying to play BF2 and it said my CD key wasn't working so I went on their site, asked em about it and they said I was just trying to pirate it... Even though I have a receipt of when I got the game. :c I was tempted to pirate their games after that lol

I was going to purchase the Crosshair V but was sold out on Newegg D: and they were having a 10 USD discount for the ASRock 990FX Fatal1ty so I went with that.

In my opinion the Crosshair V and ASrock fatal1ty are the 2 best 990FX boards atm. Hope you enjoy yours ^^

That does suck. I've used the phone for help and had nothing but Great help. After the beta is actually released I'll chime back in. I don't expect anything before the actual release though.

Thanks man I was going to get it earlier as well but they were sold out till they got some in stock about 2days ago. I borrowed some money from my Dad to get it now (Now that my old board died). Also FYI the Crosshair V has a $10 discount plus free shipping :)

I really can't wait to get it, hoping I can get some higher clocks with it on my current CPU before bulldozer. Did you see any improvement with overclocking on your FX (which is freaking sweet btw).

Got up to a stable 4ghz faster than I could blink. Absolutely amazing performance.

Oh and I've seen an increase in a few games w/ crossfire since it's x16-x16.

Oh and the board stays really cold. Very nice temps. I'm sure you'll get slightly better performance on yours than mine. ^^

Edit: Also it has dual-lan ports so I get a way better connection and lower latency in games.

Thats true but most of us now a days have 1TB backup drives or more to spare so 15GB will not be much at all. hell I have 40GB of Emulation systems

Origin lets you specify separate directories for installs, and the install files.
I install my games on my 500 GB 7200rpm drive, but save the install files on my 1.5TB "green" drive.

Corrected. I stand on its.

I am totally angry at EA (again), they sold (and I bought) a game that is so-so (MOH) in order to get into the beta (Mailmain you were pushing : ''Get into the beta, come on!!!!'', lol)

At the end "maybe" we get a beta 1-2 days before the rest of the WORLD also get it. SUCKS!

Then, I still got no notice regarding BF3 beta access, but I got a godaaaam Diablo 3 Beta invite from blizzard, a game i do not care about! Ha... ha...

Tomorrow I will go sailing and forget about it! :)
