So i just finished building my new rig and what are some stuff that i need to download/install? Also on my 24in lcd tv im at 1920x1080 resolution on a 4850 and its a bit blurrychoppy, and yes i do have the latest drivers anybody know what could be the problem?

Thanks Guys!

It is a good mobo, it came out 3 years ago so you be the judge on its condition

Well than i guess its gonna be in good-decent condition in that case enjoy your new rig.

[QUOTE="superclocked"]Agreed.. I keep important pics etc. on DVD's, 1 external hdd, and also internal hdd's, though I'll likely sell a few of my internal hdd's on ebay while the prices are high...VanDammFan

You might as well get on that. One thing i dont understand is why do people need so many backups when if you think about it you only really need 1 backup and the hard drive you are using in ur computer thats about it.

Um...I have to disagree with that..Ive had 3 hdds go bad at the same time..one right after the other. SURE I had hundreds of discs with my data but that was 2 days worth of reloading...weeding through them ect. You are supposed to have like 3-4 different backups of anything thats important. AND at least one of those stored at a different location.

Damn man u sure thats not just bad luck, how do they all go bad at the same time?

Nothing is perfect. The best advice is to store it in several places.

I own the HP Pavilion dv7-6135dx that has ATI Radeon HD 6490m Graphics and whenever i try to install the latest drivers it fail on the installation screen i tried downloading them several times. Anyone know what might be the problem?

Well you are looking to back up at least 300gb. So the only realistic way to do it is with an external drive unless you want to have a lot of sd card or thumb drives and have to spend hundreds of dollars more than you have to, the best way to go is with an external hard drive.
