I put together a new system last night and proceeded to install Win 7 64-bit and all was well. It's a legit retail copy of the Win 7 upgrade disk bought from Amazon. After a handful of restarts (Windows updates, driver updates, etc) the computer decided to freeze at the Windows welcome screen...

So, I got a couple of brand new memmory sticks (yes, i went for memmory after all), and set them in the bios to 1066. It didn't ran stable, so I tried to improve the RAM timings in the bios. Seems it was a bad idea, since after that, my computer wouldn't boot. It does power on, all coolers seem...

First off, Hi everyone! I was lucky (?) enough to get a win7 party pack but so far have had nothing but network issues. I have completely given up on wireless - its hopeless. Driver support from belkin is pretty lame. My issue now is that i am trying to connect my original (NOT 360) xbox...

Hi, I've been using the RC for a while now and it's been completely, 100% stable, so I'm sure the RAM is causing the problem. I bought two more sticks of ddr2 800 ram (1 gig each) for a total of 4 sticks and 4 gigs of ddr2 ram on my computer. These are both from the same supplier (Transcend)...

I originally had XP x64 Pro installed on my PC. I then installed x64 Windows 7 Ultimate on a second HDD. Dual booted great. STart my PC and got asked which one I wanted. But default was always Win7. Which was weird because I thought that the first install was always the primary OS. But...
