Partitioning a 2tb hd for Windows 7 64 bit
John,
As the OP was asking about partitioning for Windows 7, is it really
relevant to talk about Linux and partitioning for it?
Nope, nothing usefull what so ever!

SandForce-based SSDs
Yousuf,
It's possible that disk activity
can last very long on an HDD, but an SSD is so fast it will not last

What's your take on these SSD's in a PC running 24/7/365, as...

Do any of the current laptop computers allow the user to install a

Yousuf,
But they both seem

Maybe one was for the OS itself to be restored,...

ERUNT and/or NTREGOPT...opinions please

ERUNT became somewhat redundant when M$ introduced System Restore in XP

Need to upgrade an old GeForce 8500GT w/256ram
Foke,
You kind of limit yourself with the "no extra PS connector". Your ideal
card would probably be the GTX 460
That's intentional, as I'm limited by the stock P/S and size of the card,

the peak power consumption of GT 220. In terms...
