  1. I realize that (esp with intel, bandwidth is all that's important really. Still nice when your ram can pull off the tightest timings at any given speed though), I'm a huge nerd I've been tweaking windows and overclocking since age 6 =p. By truly good I meant a higher end system, for now just getting an x2 4000+, budget ocing mobo, 3850, etc. In a few months I plan on blowing a few grand on a truly sick computer. I'm definitely pumped for the up and coming Intel cpus, about time Intel started using IMCs. Too bad this will only allow Intel to poop on them more after all the problems with Barcelona/Phenom =/
  2. Thanks, I really don't care about the RAM as well was just curious (you really should have enough ram to run a **** operating system and the programs you use and hd space doesn't cost jack today). Very glad a serious speed-up can be had, along side faster installs, higher security, etc. The new comp will def have 4gb, there's a new gskill 2x2gb kit for $135 that can easily hit 1100ish speeds, not the best timings, but this comp is just to hold me off until I can buy a truly good comp. Thanks again for the hards work
  3. Unfortunately I had a horrendous string of luck in life (lost my online poker broll in a matter of like 2 weeks, had $2100 stolen from me) so my hopes of a new computer went down the s***ter, but now I've got a job and am doing some other work as well. How small could I get a vista install and does anyone by chance know how much ram the default setup vs a really stripped set up uses (for example with my nlited xp all I could do was connect to the internet basically, I removed just about everything:p). Thanks guys!. Also never said it, but thanks a lot for your hard work Nuhi. I just might've killed myself having to deal with regular xp, nlited winxp is like heaven on earth

    Question

    Thanks man, I'll have 2x1gb on my new rig. I'd like to have more but this is just a budget comp (e6320, 2x1gb, 965, 8800gts320, etc) to hold me off till the end of summer when I'll blow a good 6-7k on a penryn rig. I should just wait but I can't stand an axp rig any longer

    Question

    Well I'm getting my new comp soon and am gonna install Vista unfortunately, because I need to play dx10 games . I was just curious with vLite at this point can you remove/tweak enough things to get like a slimmed down copy of xp? I really enjoy my super slimmed down winxp and I'm hoping I'll be able to the same with Vista since in has even more useless s*** than xp.
  6. As for games all current P4s get raped by any decently clocked A64 sys. For people who don't wanna spend a lot best bet is too buy a msi k8n neo2, 2x512mb of gskill ram or other nice tccd, and 3000 or 3200 winnie (u can get away with 3000s 9x multi if u have nice tccd) then oc it to 2.6+ ghz and you will be raping p4s left and right
  7. I'm planning on getting a Athlon 64 3000+, a new mobo for it, and a X800 Pro . I was wondering what motherboard you guys would suggest, currently I'm looking at the Abit KV8 Pro (the beta bios fixes the agp/pci locks not workign and I'm sure I can get this off the net somewhere) or the Epox Epox EP-8KDA3J. Which would you guys reccomend or maybe you even have a different one to suggest. Also, I may get a WD Raptor 37.6 in which case I will need a new PSU since my current one doesn't have the SATA power cables or is there an adapter for the current molex connectors (I'd assume there is oddly enough I have checked to see if they exist). Also for a heatsink I'm looking at the SLK-948U or the Alpha 8150, which one would you reccomend or maybe you have another heatsink I could try (not ready to dish out for water yetand I'd be worried abotu taking it to lans and crap if I had water cooling). Here's my 2nd thing. I'm gonna sell some of my current hardware - my Barton 2500+ which reaches 2.35ghz @ 1.875 (420fsb max, but that's my mobos fault I believe (haven't tried it in another mobo 2 prove that yet), Epox 8rda+ 1.1 with C1/Ultra400 stuff so it can do 400+ FSB (has a copper zalman nb heatsink although some pins are bent as I had to make room for my SLK900A ), and a Sapphire 9500np which succesfully softmods (makes it a 9700np) and overclocks to 378/294 (too bad I got the bad inf 3.3ns ram =/). How much would you guys suggest selling it for and do you think I should sell the cpu, mobo, and hs as one package or as seperate items. One last thing would you reccomend sellingit any palce besides ebay, right now I'm just gonna use ebay, because I know there's lots of not so smart people that are willing to overpay for things like my old hardware Thanks guys!
  8. Aztec are you using SP2, as there is a known problem with both SP2 and Lognhorn where the nfroce drivers won't install, i personally believe this is, because a new windows installer/installshield is included. XP SP1a/ has v2, SP2 has v3, and Longhorn has 4 although it isn't finsihed so i doubt the 4 is much different vs the current v3 builds in sp2.
  9. quite a few of my drivers wont use their setup exes and based on what ive seen if we can replace the windows installer 4.0 with the sp1 version it would work better. im coming to this conclusion based on the latest nforce 4.24 udp. it installs with the setup.exe on sp1a, but will not work in sp2 or longhorn both of which included a newer version either 3 or 4 of the installer. if we can get it back it mightwork ill try this out tmrw hopefully
  10. trillian winrar nero 8rdavcore cpuidle opera wmp10 winamp5 spybot adaware mirc dh-shutdown driver cleaner 3 diskeeper bittorrent alcohol 120% go supernova (nifty prog for torrent users google it and try it)
  11. thanks for your help, im just desperate 2 get files off my cd as all i have right now is 650mb cds and i can only overburn so much . thanks again
  12. I already have it set to install with those switches w/ xplode, but I was hoping to slipstream it not just install it.
  13. That's why I didn't provide a link . I was merely hoping someone more expierenced on the forums also had WMP10 (although like i said installer says wmp10 but if go2 about i the prog it says wmp series 9 and version # is 9.00.00.3409) and could help me with this.
  14. I'm working on my 2nd unattended cd. This time around I'm im slipstreaming sp2 into it, but I'd also slipstream WMP10 (I wouldn't really call it 10, it says 10 but its more like 9, but better looking), but I need some help. I previously had WMP9 slipstreamed using boecks batch files. I was wondering if someone could help me figure out a way to WMP10 onto this cd. any help is appreciated
  15. I'll makea guide on how to get these down to a reasonable size tomorrow hopefully. As for now I got lazy got it down to 150mb and just burned it onto the cd (had to overburn it but who cares). I removed all the language files, registration ,warranty, liscense, some of the control panels which I don't use among other things. I'll psot about it more tmrw
