Thnx AMIT

Thnx for such a nice guide FireGeier, how much time it took to create this guide for u?

yes...T7200 is a Core2Duo processor. http://www.intel.com/products/centrino/duo/index.htm?iid=c2d+link_cmtd&

I would hate to disagree but I have to. I purposely built a new system just for Vista with all the latest hardware and speed: - Intel Duo Core 2 e6600 cooled by Sunbeam Tuniq Tower 120 - Asus p4B Premium Vista Edition - 4 gigs of Corsair TWIN2X2048-6400C4 DDR2-800 XMS2-6400 Xtreme Performance Memory - 2 Western Digital Raptor WD1500AHFD 150GB Serial ATA 10,000RPM Hard Drive w/16MB Buffer running in Raid 0 - 1 Western Digital Raptor 74GB Serial ATA 10,000RPM Hard Drive w/16MB Buffer - BFG GeForce 8800 GTS OC 320MB GDDR3 PCI-Express Video Card - Powered by Thermaltake W0117RU Toughpower 750W Power Supply w/Active PFC I ran Vista for about a week and gave me nothing but issues. Sure the OS itself is stable but with constant disk searching it was screaming my drives every second for hours and yes I tweaked it and turned a lot of crap off. No software works on it such as dreamweaver, photoshop and Office 2007 outlook locks up during mail checking. Software may not be Vista problem but it's unwilling to adapt to how things run makes it an overall POS. I went back to XP and just been screaming along on my new pc. The fact is out of the box vista isn't all the great for the normal end user. Gaming, don't get me started on that. i m not agree with you. i have following configuration >Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 1.86 GHz @ 3.01 GHz( OClocked) + Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro + Arctic Silver 5 Thermal paste applied >ASUS P5B Deluxe Motherboard Rev 1.xx and bios 1101 >2 GB OCZ EL Platinum XTC DDR2- 1000 Mhz @1076 Mhz 5-5-5-8 RAM >250 GB Seagate SATA2 HDD + 250 GB USB External HDD >ATI X1800XT 512 MB @702/1604 ( Core/memory ) > 400 W iBall PSU i m running vista for last 3 months without any error or any compatibility issue with games like counter strike, Black Hawk Down, Company of heroes, warhammer 40k, etc.. and applications like autocad, 3dsmax, office 2007, photoshop, etc....i havent even used XP since i have installed Vista. i m a hardcore overclocker...so while playing with hardwares to overclock, vista had rebooted many times with BSODs caz of overclocking...though it never failed to start again with next reboot and without any performance decrease! yes...nvidia having crappy driver issue with vista, so beware of it...its not fault of vista.....anyways i m not telling u to use vista...just clarifying tht vista is not bad at all!

i m running Vista as primary OS now....havent used XP since December 2006!

yeah..it happens due to RAM too..i have got this error many times whn i was playing with my mobo. to overclock my PC.. i think this is nice tht vista atleast shown the error code, tht we can understand it is IRQL error...while XP never shown any errors it just got hanged....so at this point...vista is good at troubleshooting!

hmmm..vista having improved AERO BSOD...lmao!

Eset ( NOD32 ) has launched "Eset Smart Security Beta1" now..i m using it....very impressive protection!

Here is mine with Core 2 Duo ....CPU is overclocked to 3 Ghz...and RAM is @1076 Mhz..

Here is mine for my new C2D E6300 1.86 Ghz running @3.01 Ghz.

if u want to use glass effects ( transpert windows ) thn it cant be applied by default..u have to use 3rd party tools like Windowblinds. this effect cant be applied directly.. u have to use windowblinds.

ummm.....well...actually transfer speed and time remaining are based on scripts...so it cant be applied on XP as vista having...u have to use 3rd party copier tools....

nice screen bro. so i think i dont need to reply of ur PM now !

hehe.......dont joke.

hmmm good...but any custom edits available? if i want to change logo with mine one?

ok guys...since now Retail/RTM versions are out now...i m starting a new topic for System Rating of your PC Generated By Vista....Remember this time only post scores of your RTM ( final release ) version..not any RC or Beta releases... Plz also write a little note about your overclocked settings if you have overclocked your system...it will be best if you post both ratings...i mean for Default clock of your CPU and Overclocked settings... Good Luck! Here is mine.. Overclocked - [ AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.0 GHz to 2.7 GHz ] Default clock - [AMD Athlon 64 3200+ @ 2.0 GHz ] Same score as above..only Processor score is 3.9 any suggetions to improve this topic will be appreciated. Thnx AMIT

Nepali.....i dont agree with u tht microsoft wont get more customers.....1 GB RAM which is now very cheap now a days.....and abt graphics....new motherboards having powerful onboard graphics...which having atleast 128 MB shared memory which are capable to use windows aero effect ( i have just tested ASUS P5GZ-MX with Core 2 Duo it working fine with Aero on onboard graphics as well ) ....well yes...u r thinking caz u have just looked around ur country tht no one will get customers....thts caz who pays for legel copies ther? ( ofcource here its same...i dont think anyone using legel XP or any other software legelly in my city !! ) so it isnt matter tht they will get customers here or not....microsoft having income from Europe , N and S America & East Asia..... not from us..... Vista is made for future hardwares..obviously....until compatible hardwares comeout ..it seems tht it is crap to buy....just wait for few months....must say..if u have 2 GB or more RAM...than Vista is running faster than XP....this is true...caz supercache and readyboost features of Vista really providing faster performance ...but for this u must have 2 GB or more RAM... and about resource hogging...its caz of supercache and other extra services ...Download TweakVI to tweak ur Vista.... P.S.. i have a patch file to install Vista on 256 MB RAM PC if anyone want it...but u have to imagine..how fast ( slow ) it will run on this kinda PC....

ummmm...cant say...i also wanna do it...( but **** having exams on head ) ... will try it though... and whr r u from long time man...couldnt get u online from few months....be online...we can talk on this further... AMIT

yes....its a same question..but not purelly same.....i m talking abt 2 connection from 1 ADSL modem! from 1 provider....but i m reading the topic, of which link u have posted above...thnx for it

i have 2 PCs at office....and having an ADSL Broadband connection of 256 kbps for each PC using single ADSL modem! modem have 4 slots for common modem cable..and 1 slot for USB cable to connect internet....i m using common modem cable right now.. in modem box..i have got 2 cables...1 USB cable...and 1 Common phoneline cable ( common modem cable ) . i have 2 USER IDs for each of my 2 PC..means i have 2 internet connections...it mean my ISP providing 2 connections from 1 ADSL modem...but my one PC has gone to be repaired...so i want to try if i can run both of my USER IDs on 1 PC...so i can get double speed of internet!! mean 2 connections using 1 modem on 1 PC!! is this possible? cant it be possible tht 1st connection use common modem cable to connect internet.and 2nd connection connect through USB cable...so i can get 2x256 kbps speed on my 1 PC? i think its possible i even connected it using RASPPPOE...both got connected too...but one connection stays idle..ony 1 of them being used!! cant i get total speed of both connections on one pc??

where is the download link ??

yeah...i have heard tht Acronis is working on vista....

yeah i tried it...it didnt even start on vista...anyways..i have created partition using Vista's Shrink & Extend features....btw thnx for info.

thnx for info. m8...will check it out.
