• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Win XP

Mines still working fine , but a six year old Xp did that to me 4 or 5 times , Finally got pissed about that , and shook the case side to side , was geting ready to huff it out the window , who would have guessed the hard disc needle reader must have got stuck , stupid thing has worked fine ever since !!
 
Got my computer guy coming on Mon. Hopefully it's something stupid like a virus. Had one once that changed every file on the HD to hidden and it said no OS found! He fixed it but it cost me. I would like to upgrade to Win 7 to get the full benefit of the 4Gb patch but until we have a definitive guide on where to run it from, whether 32 or 64 bit is better and what configuration allows it to run the same as on XP with full administrative control, I'm going to hold off.

But if anyone has a Win 7 that works without any problems and they could list their brand, Windows version, 64 or 32 bit, what video card they run and anything else. I might build a clone of it. LOL
