[quote]It appeared to me that insult was his intention.[/quote] I did not see it that way at all... [quote who="Jafo" reply="15" id="2280084"] Face it, having RAM beyond a certain point does not a single thing for your performance. Right now 6 gigs appears to be the sweet spot. Well said. I told everyone it must be a overcompensating for something else thing... Once upon a time 'someone' said no-one would ever NEED more than 640k. <

[quote]Do not think of it in terms of SSD vs HDD, instead, think of it in terms as SSD+HDD. All I advocate is that you make an arrangement similar in designed to your RAM with your drives so you can enjoy the best of both worlds. A small inexpensive SSD at 30 gigs for system and your most demanting games and HDD for everything else.[/quote] Sir-Astral, I've been looking right at that amount a 30gig SSD and a 160gig sata HD. But I'm still figuring the virtual end of my system

I know exactly what you are talking about - but I do not want it where things are lost at restart. There are other ways to contain them in the virtual system and then remove them at your needs be reasons. I'm waiting for the real thing as this with a protected OS able to be updated only by the system or original installer. Updates have to work and I hate having to switch stuff to do updates to a virtual system. Thats the main problem they are having at MS right now with the newer windows 8 be

This is my opinion " I could careless what is the price!" I'm waiting for a certain advancement to be made and then I'm going all the way with most everything. Totally new system with all the trimings. But not sure I'll go with Windows 7 and the way it is. That unless I wait long enough to buy OEM builder OS software. Only because everything on my new system will be top of the line and I would more like to think the next OS Windows 8 is more of what I'm going to be looking for. But with an OE

Wahine, If you are afraid of a virus getting on that flash drive here is a very good anti-virus for the flash drive. It is free and it will scan any file you put on the flash drive as you try to put them on it.

Ok you sold me on it already. Still using the last one I got from you "Laguna Vista". Even made me a rainlandar2 skin for it. Now this one is a good color and I like them taskbar buttons. What is the media player you have there on the bottom right hand side? Interesting. Plus is this a laptop? Seeing the blue tooth icon in the tray or do you use that as I do for sync of a cel phone? Ya I'm full of questions. But I for sure plan to buy this one here as soon as you finish it. In my poin

Reply to Question re: External HDs and Viruses in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

Wahine, Use a flash drive and only backup the document file and pictures to it. Then you can use a machine which has an anti-virus program on it already and scan the flash drive for any virus. If something is there most anti-virus programs will delete or contain the virus. This is depending on the virus. Here is a very good tool to use on the computer with the virus and on the flash drive after you have transferred your documents to it. Follow all the instructions to the letter.

[quote]And I've asked before. Why does anyone need more than 4 GB of RAM? I only have 512 MB of RAM yet I have 8 tabs open in Firefox and 5 other programs running and my system isn't crapping out on me at all. The world really does not need 64 bit.[/quote] To try and answer your question there Kona. Some people use a lot of things besides browsers and/or the such now days. For the most part 64bit was really started in the server for more available performance at working wit

[quote]What's involved in an upgrade to SSD HD? Do they seat like a sata HD?[/quote] The most SSD HD are Sata II/I - mostly Sata II and that would be a regular sata power connector and a sata II data connection on the board for high speed data transfer. The sata I is not as fast and is really a down grade for any SSD HD. But to answer your question - you only need sata power connection or a molex to sata adapter and a sata II data connection.
