Got Vista today. Was bored at work so i rang one of my clients and asked him to put one aside for me.

I just went with home premium as it has the features that i want. And was a good price.

Seems pretty good to me, using it right now.

On annoying thing is when my computer boots it comes to a multiboot screen with two options.

1. Older windows install (or something to that effect)

2. Windows Vista

But the hdd i installed vista on was a clean install, with a format and a deletion of the existing partition.

And my secondary drive is just full of my donwloads, mp3's, videos, etc, etc

Anyone know of an easy way to get rid of this? It's not exactly a problem but still irritates me none the less.

Properties of my computer > advanced system settings > startup and recovery settings

Pick the default option (vista) and untick the time to display list, or reduce the time to like 2-3 seconds.

I must admit I like the Vista 64bit Ultimate (ebay 4tehwinha)

just got to remember to run things in administrator mode

ie Logitech Setpoint, teamspeak, bf2, and have to tick my mic boost everytime I load up ;)

yeah still on XP Krastler

i was going to upgrade my whole PC i sold it to my son dirt cheap so was really a gift but spent the money on coilovers ;) which im well happy with

lucky for me i didnt upgrade cause everything has had a huge price drop

I want to do a full upgrade end of the year.

I'll wait till AMD launch there desktop quad core cpu's. And also wait till the next gen of nvidia cards our out.

I could certainly use another gig of ram in the pc now using vista.

Need some help with my computer it's a HP pavilion a1060 bout 15 months old now and i think i got a virus while downloading music from limwire. It froze and ever since that it comes up with sytem error on start up. Iv put the HP system recovery disk in and all good till it gets to 92% and comes up with Error copying file. Iv then got a nother recovery disk from HP and its doing the same thing any idea whats wrong.

cheers

nooo.. hp good, user bad!!! =P

nfi, unable to copy files during windows setup could also mean a critical peice of HW is faulty.... first thing i would look at is ram, then optical drive, HDD, then mobo then cpu... if it still fails after you have tested all those, including the cables they connect to MB with (for the drives)... then you have yourself a BIG problem

btw, let this be a lesson to you all!!! Limewire brakes PCs, DONT use it... EVER!!!! RARARARARARA!!! and dont use zone alarm, thats even worse!

    • The car is red. Leave it red, it looks great. Unless it's sealed though it's not going to be doing anything for performance and just suckin in hot air, mind you.
    • Pic of Nos, turbo kit and sequential not loading. 404 not found
    • im sure mine stays in gear and wont shift unless i shift it? and for sure it wont go back to Auto mode if its put in manual mode? if i use paddles but its still in D then of course it goes back to auto mode. but yer if its in -+ and i use paddles it will not auto change gears what so ever and i have tried this. it will gear down if at a stop though which is kinda nice but goes back to 1st gear not D. i think it used to be like this with imports aswell i dunno if its really like it anymore like when i got my R33 it had alot of JDM options which local cars didnt have. Now local cars have kinda caught up even the lower models. but yer transfer rates and other things makes it almost on par.
    • Very decent bit of kit. Definitely black it out I reckon.  
    • Because people who want that are buying euros. The people with the money to buy the aftermarket heads and blocks aren’t interested in efficiency or making -7 power, they’re making well over 1,000hp and pretty much only drive them at full throttle  best way to way make money is know your customer base and what they want and don’t spend money making things they don’t want.
