*Sorry if im in a wrong Forum i couldnt find a 'Software' one*

Hi im just about to install a Win7update CD. Im updating from Vista Home Premium 64bit.

In the install it asks me if i want to "update" my Windows to 7 (recomended) or to install a new version of Windows ("warning some programs will not work" message).

Now, i would like to install the new version but im afraid it will give me two OSes.

Is that the case?or will it delete my Vista and install 7?

basically what do those two options mean? ...

Hey,

I just got a new PC with the GTS250 1GB card and am wondering if, and how, can i watch(and hear)a movie through HDMI on one monitor/LCD and play/surf, with audio (through speakers/headephones), on 2nd monitor. As right now i switch between HDMI and Speakers option in the Control Panel-Sound-Playback menu .

Thanks

oh sorry, just noticed the Audio/Hardware forum ill repost there.

Hey im planing on getting a new PC with the GT230 in it, but i am realy confused on the card. http://www.gateway.com/systems/product/529668286.php

In the comp specs it says it has1.5GB mem., but when i google the card(almost nothing on it) ppl say that its a repack of 9600GT wich has 512MB. But the GT220 has 1GB.

Anyhow, does anyone know the actual mem. of this card? and BTW whats the difference between "Discrete Video Memory", "Discrete Graphics Memory",andTotal Video Memory"?

Thanka

PS the card is not on the nVidia's website

Thnks for the quick answer...

Now does that realy equal a true 2.5GB videao ram of is it different? By that i mean can i run games like Crysis that require 650+MB? How does that work?
