hey, if you applied to get the new XBOX LIVE Beta, its out, and I just downloaded it. So if you got accepted, you will be asked to update your dashboard.

did you apply for the new NXE beta?

judging by your D/L speed and upload speed, I am surprise you are able to run xbox live without and hiccups. I easily push about 18 Down and about 2 Up......if you want a fair router, you should look into see about getting your internet to get up to speed. Also, speedtest/speakeasy are not good sources for your speed test. Just google comcast speed test, and pick your nearest area, and there you go(only if you have comcast obviously) but if you are using DSL, then thats your problem there.

ohh, im not new to computers, but pretty subpar when it comes to this type of knowledge. but thanks for your help

theres a sofware out there(IPrep) and it actually puts DOS on your jump drive(256mb)

ohh I almost forgot, cant I plug in a USB jump drive, and turn on the CPU to run on DOS? without it screwing everything up?

alright thanks for your help...im not 100% sure I want to do it, but i dont know, its always up for discussion. Thanks

no, I dont want to remove my HDD, but I would like to upgrade one day for a bigger one, but I want to remove my SATA cable because I plan on modding something(you know what I mean)

um, I only have one hard drive on my CPU, im not sure if OS is installed on my HDD, but if I power down the cpu, and remove the cable, then I should be okay then?

If I disconnect my SATA cable from my hard drive, can it potential delete everything on my hard drive, or will I be okay?
