Hey everyone, I read through the sticky posts before I posted and it appears, after going through "perfmon /report," my memory is low. This PC came with Vista but I downgraded to XP because I hated it. Yesterday I did a clean install of Windows 7, 64bit. I wasn't going to because my gut said...

This may have been addressed so far so I'm sorry for the re-post but I couldn't find anything helpful by searching. I ran several games fine (world of warcraft, counterstrike, etc) before installing windows 7 and now I cannot play them since the installation. The games run ridiculously choppy...

Hey everyone, I'm at my wits end with this. I've never had any issues installing an operating system in the past and I'm rather embarrassed it's happened to me with what should be such a simple installation. I have partitioned a 260 gig hard drive. I have windows xp up and running on the first...

I was complaining here about a month ago, about the fact that ZoneAlarm Pro's minimum system requirements called for a 2GHz or faster processor. It still does, and I'm upset about that, but it got me wondering about other software's requirements, so I decided to look up some pro and consumer...
