From time to time we all have to reformat cos of viruses and bugs, or new operating systems etc, so which games do you always keep on your drives, no matter how much time passes and new games come out ?

 

For me its command and conquer generals (4 years now) and Unreal tounament 2004 (3 years )

I had 2 gig of value ddr 400 ram installed in dual channel mode. Things were a little slow in vista so I bought another 2 gig of OCZ 400 ram which has timings of 8-4-2-2 and put it in the 2 empty banks.

The 4 gig is booting up but only running at ddr 333. How do I get it all running at 400 ? Help please

I have an Nforce 4 motherboard. I have installed vista 64 bit and everything is running fine. I have just noticed that there are new nforce 4 vista 64 bit drivers available. should I install them or leave things alone seeing that everything is running ok ?

Thanks for your help

Picking up Vista tomorrow .

I already use a Maxtor diamondmax 10 SATA 1 250gb hard drive. I play mainly games and find that with xp and the 127gb limit, C drive is usually full. I also have a second slave drive.

I was thinking about getting a 150gb western digital raptor but they are very expensive at £150 and although they are the fastest drives out there, I am not sure the increased perfomance is justified by the high price tag. Should I therefore keep my exising drive or buy a 320gb sata II drive such as an hitachi deskstar ? Or would I be mad not to get a Raptor ?

Advice please .

Thanks
