^ I just read your last comment, and I think you have it backwards. It is the gamers responsibility not to pirate games, not the developers.TheDuffman26
Maybe, +you will not steal+ I dont have a solution, but I do know that piracy affects, MOSTLY, buyers. Games are still being made, massively, with huge budgets and publicity. The PC will get games as long as it exist. But people that buy games with DRM are paying to get a kick in the nuts, while I can download a game and play it without any hassel, doesn-t matter if its gta IV or whatever it is. For every protection there is a way around... I see the lack of PC only games is that, its too damn easy for them to make the same game work for more systems, that will bring them more potential buyers. And I belive, also, that this industry doesn-t REALLy care about player, rather than players money. Because so many people own at least one gaming platform... be it a cellphone even. So what I think is, that the industry is trying to bash its competitors. Torrent and P2P offer worldwide delivery, free of charge. While you have to pay the same price for a game in a box and for a digital copy. WHat is that message? The box is free? The disc, all other stuff? So, BS aside, its an industry and you need to pay them to play by its rules. Many people find this a bad deal, I include myself there.

I recently changed from XP 32 to Vista Ultimate 64.

The system runs great, but I can't really compare my performance between because I changed to new hardware.

What I can say is that Vista improved "task manager" and application control a lot, and a system hang or application crash can be handled much better in vista than XP. It seems to make better use of multi cores and all 4gb of ram.

Has given no problems so far and everything runs as it should.

thanks for answers. I wasn't planning this upgrade, a friend bought these for me and I had no idea.

Now i'll need to use x64 OS. Wich should I go for, XP or Vista? So far, XP has been great for me, dunno if it benefits me to go to Vista with this new hardware.

I put too much coller on my cpu, and now the fan is impossible to remove. It needs to be replaced, but i can't take it off.

I tried putting some pressure, but I had a bad experience once, cracked a motherboard. So I don't want to try brute force anymore.

Any suggestions on how to dissolve or remove the thermal paste?

Just curious what everyone's opinion is.

I choose BGII:SoA
Zythyl

that was my first choice after reading topic title, funny you chose it.

SoA is one of the thickest games ever, but Morrowind can get pretty everlasting too.

edit: seriously, Halo? how long will people say this game is good, when it's nothing more than arcade shooting, just boring
