  1. I been told DVD's and CD's wear out after several years. Verbatim and Taiyo-yuden included. Is that so? Are they not immortal? In a closed container, protected from cold and heat and UV and physical damage... How long can the burnt data last without corrupting or becoming inaccessible thus forever lost?
  2. They operate under SVCHOST.exe and are listening on local DCOM port. This is default in a clean Windows 7 ultimate install. Also after security tweaking and hardening they still remain open. What services are responsible for this? Can they be closed down?
  3. System 792 TCP 135 epmap 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Listening N/A RpcEptMapper, RpcSs System 512 TCP 49155 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Listening N/A System 792 TCP 135 epmap :: :: Listening N/A RpcEptMapper, RpcSs System 512 TCP 49155 :: :: Listening N/A Services.exe seems to be producing the open ports: 49135, 49155, etc. What's the deal with this?
  4. OS 4 or OS 5 Is there an app or procedure for such thing or is the MAC embedded permanently to device somehow? Anyone have experience on the subject?
  5. What is needed in Vlite for Group Policy to work? What can break it or disable it altogether? What breaks, limits, or disables 'administrative tools'? Anyone know?
  6. all purpose. Say video encoding/gaming, etc. What would you suggest?
  7. Had performance as priority for this build so storage space is not a big concern. Thinking running: x64 XP or an extremly vlite'd Win 7 (to exploit those 30GB of space on boot drive).... for running maybe a game/office and 1 or 2 main intensive apps. (adobe CS4's or such) And for further storage, there's HDD by usb/sata or adding a second SSD. So you think the main flaw on this build is the available storage space? What would you suggest to improve? What would you change, swap, remove, or upgrade?
  8. Anyone done it? Is this feasible? Is there support for such a thing on Win 7 and intel P55+ boards? Would a box with a raid 0 SSD setup fly? ^^ or how about, WD VelociRaptors 10,000 RPM vs. SSD? Let's hear those thoughts people!
  9.

Future upgrades: double ram only. Peripherals: perhaps a blue ray drive or a dvdrw or attached HDD for storage. Was considering a SLC SDD but read/write speeds seem 3x better with the MLC counter part. (also more storage space) What do you think? Any parts that can be upgraded to a better choice? Can it be improved? How do you see the system overall?
  10. Good insight Thank you everyone
  11. Thank you very much. Appreciate the contribution
  12. All I'm looking is for a broad range of opinions that's all... Research but Thank you for the insight
  13. Aside from the old NT icons and themes nostalgia... Why would someone run 98 or one of the old NT's instead of XP+? How about security? performance? anything else? (Not concerned about Legacy gaming) Any real convincing good logical reason to use one of these relics and avoid the newer Windows builds? Or would that be just plain ignorance or such?
  14. I've heard some live under SP2 and refuse to yield... is there any real security of performance gain by sticking with SP2 and refraining from SP3? Which of the two do you like best? And what is your logical (hopefully reinforced) reason to have that preference?
