  1. Hi Andavari

    Are you saying in fact that a higher RAM than 1 giga may even slow XP down?

     

    He was replying to someone with 512 MB of RAM, versus the OP's 128 MB's of RAM. I had 512 MB for a while, but put in 2 GB's and realized it made all the difference.

  2. Just noticed this bit on your site :blink:

     

    You want me to change it?

     

     

    Lovely clean, uncluttered design :)

     

    One observation: Because the topic titles are stacked vertically they take up a lot of real estate. There's a huge swathe across the top (340px deep on the home page) which effectively just has your header and six titles. That's okay on a big screen - but makes life harder on a netbook!

     

    You could compact that - for example reducing the depth of the dark blue area, and stringing the titles on one line; after all they don't open up to sub-menus. Obviously you don't want to detract from the overall style, but visually it might be worth experimenting with.

     

    I'll look into it. Thanks for the comments.

  3. First of all - this should be in the Recuva forum. If I'm interpreting your post correctly, you reinstalled Vista on your PC, and then realized your music hadn't been backed up. Honestly, there's a good chance you will not be able to get it back. If the drive was formatted, and then had Vista reinstalled, it is most likely you will not be able to get your music files back. The files most likely got written over and will be unrecoverable at this point.

  4. Also, Giorgio, DDR3 is not triple channel. DDR3 only supports dual channel at this time. The 3 does not reference channels. It seems that much of the reported wrong information is actually an issue with the interface between the chair and the keyboard, and not the product. People, learn what these things mean and the intricate differences between them before you go and say that it is broken.

     

    Please visit the Wikipedia DDR3 article to explain the various speeds. DDR3-1333 (aka PC3-10600) runs at 667mhz w/166mhz clock speed, which Speccy is reporting on your system.

     

    The RAM itself is not triple channel, but if the motherboard is based on the x58 chipset, it can run in triple channel mode. There are motherboards out there based on the chipset that have either 4 or 6 slots - the 4 slot version is confusing (the ideal thing would to have two 1 GB sticks and then two 512 MB sticks in the third and fourth slots to achieve triple channel.) Please don't insult people when you are not right - my Core i7 920 on an ASUS P6T has three 2GB sticks of Patriot DDR3, and it's in triple channel mode.

  5. OMFG good times. I remember the red ranger, Jason leaving, and then coming back as the gold ranger. Aw man :P

     

    Rocky replaced him as Mighty Morphin Red, and then became Zeo Blue. Then Jason came back as Zeo Gold Ranger.

    The original ?Power Rangers? return in 2010

    News | by Albert Valentin

    After months of speculation, Disney and Bandai made an official announcement that the hit 1993 series MIGHTY MORPHIN? POWER RANGERS will make its official return to television in January 2010.

     

     

    MIGHTY MORPHIN? POWER RANGERS was the Americanized version of the 1992 Super Sentai Series KYORYU SENTAI ZYURANGER. The story of MMPR revolved around five teens from the fictional city of Angel Grove who gain the powers to become the Power Rangers in their quest against the evil Rita Repulsa.

     

    The original series starred Austin St. John, the late Thuy Trang, David Yost, Walter Jones, and Amy Jo Johnson as the original Power Rangers, with upcoming mixed martial arts fighter Jason David Frank joining the cast mid-way through the first season as Tommy, the Green/White Ranger.

     

    The original MMPR series, owned by Saban Entertainment, lasted from 1993 to 1996 on Fox Kids, followed by more Power Rangers series, which were in turned the Americanized versions of the previous year?s Super Sentai Series. Disney acquired the Power Rangers from Saban Entertainment in 2001 and began airing more Power Rangers series on the former Toon Disney/Jetix (now Disney XD).

     

    The current Power Rangers series, POWER RANGERS RPM, looks to end its series run in either late December or early January on ABC Kids and will officially mark the end of the Power Rangers universe to begin the return of the series that started it all.

     

    The return of the MIGHTY MORPHIN? POWER RANGERS is being reshown to a new generation of fans who may have missed out on seeing the original series. This will give fans of the more recent series a look at the series that started it all as well as bring back a sense of nostalgia for fans who saw the original series back nearly seventeen years ago.

     

    Meanwhile, Bandai, the toy company who have made all of the Power Rangers action figures, announced that they will unveil fifteen new action figures revolving around the original Power Rangers.

  7. Well I've only had my Fujitsu-Siemens AMILO Li 1818 laptop for a couple of weeks and some specs say 120GB and some say 160GB drive. Windows showed 80GB. When I formatted and rebuilt last week it showed another 40GB partition which I deleted becuase there was nothing in it and it rebuilt ok, now it shows 137GB but no greater.

     

    WinXP makes a small 8GB partition which you can't see in Windows. When I rebuild that system I deleted this partition but it always shows up again the next time I rebuild. ;)

     

    That bolded part - sounds like you have the base install of XP and not even service pack one installed. Try updating - you'll get more harddrive space back.

  8. CTskifreak you have to know that if you became a moderator you won't receive updates in your homepage.

     

    Do you want to have the ability to post updates?

     

    Yeah - I figured as much - and I come here for updates anyways first. So yeah, it wouldn't be a huge deal for me.

  9. Along with fieryone's advice - the AMD process you have chosen might be a quadcore, but compared to Intel's product's, they're only comparable to the older Core 2 Quad's. The newer Intel i5's and i7's are so much more powerful. With that being said, the 5870 is overpowered for that AMD processor you chose. What resolution is your monitor/ what resolution will you be playing at?

  10. Luik - I kinda want to be a moderator - considering how much I'm on Facebook :lol::P . I know it's not a super high amount of work, but I'd definitely be one if you wanted me to be one. Let me know - you can figure out which fan I am cause I sign my posts with my name haha.
