O rly? You can't just drag files across the network? WTF?

Virgin Media. They're pretty good for me TBH, I'm failing to see where all the hate stems from. I can download DVD ISOs from MSDN at 20Mbit, and it's only when I go past the point where I know I shouldn't be downloading so much that I get capped - even then it doesn't seem to bone my latency...

But they are being starved - otherwise the 9600m GT would be as good as one of my 9600 GTs (pre SLI). Which it isn't. And my 2.8GHz Core2Duo laptop would be faster than my Pentium D 3.0GHz. Which it isn't. What is it you're failing to understand? If people could make chips that ran on nothing...

The trouble is where you walk into an environment where you're picking up the pieces of someone else's lack of understanding - somewhere where the last technician thought High Availability was plugging in both power supplies to the same power rail - then you can't just go restarting kit...

Hosts should only need restarting when they need it. Even my Windows stuff stays up for 2-3 years on end.

Give it a few weeks yet - nVidia are to start shipping ION components and that means HD video in a tiny size...

f**king LOL at the Macbook Pro recommendation. Go home. How is a 9600GT going to eat up games? It'll cook - even on 'low' settings in most games. You can buy laptops with dual 9800GTX in them, and THATis a gaming laptop.

15ms on wireless on my 20Mb.

Doesn't work I'm afraid - the first generation dual-core processors won't work with 4GB sticks - hence the 16GB/32GB limits shown. It's not that the processors can't see that much memory, it's that the processors can't work with that density. And 2003 Enterprise Edition sucks compared to...

There are differing grades, and Toslink cables are flexible but only up to a point - if you think how much Cat5 can put up with (trapped in floor tiles, pinched between desks) then you realise just how little Optical fibre would survive. Not least of which, if you break it in the box in the...

I'm on VM's 20Mb service and regularly get it - I get great download speeds and then when I download my limit I get throttled to *exactly* what they say I'll be throttled to, which I think is more than fair. If there is an issue with your service, call them. I've not had any issues with...

Diskette failure = you have an FDD in that isn't bootable usually.

And signal degradation, as the signal will try to go in the out of the other one...

Hmm. Tank level in the original is very 'token vehicle-based level', but not too bad. Much rather toss about in the suit.

What screen it got? 1280x800?!

Hell of a laptop you've got if you think that...

Another vote for Dell. If you can't be arsed to build your own, want someone to come out and fix it when it's broke but overall, not to break in the first place (on the whole!) then Dell are a good shout now. Their hardware has moved on from the days of people's hate and it really is just...

Done Warhead, and it nearly cooked my overclocked 8800GTX. New system build is in order, but I'm considering waiting until the new Crysis is out to spec it (CryENGINE 3 was announced lately). Temps were up to 100 degrees on the GPU, CPU was holding it's own. Agreed on Nanosuit - also, G15...

Just started playing Crysis again on mine, ace game. End.

Take it that was a trackday, as there's a massive range of kit out there! Good pics, could do with a slightly faster shutter IMHO - but it'd be a hard one to get right! Think these are the easiest of pictures to get to look good, and the hardest of pictures to get perfect.

Never mind moving goalposts, these are doing f**king loop-the-loops.

That amount of RAM for a DL380 G5 costs 3 servers plus s**tloads...

Good question. One I don't know the answer to, other than the powers that be say so. And as for ROI - if I've got a room full of G5s, which don't need replacing or beefing up, why do I have to invest? If I don't invest, there's no return on it, and let's be fair, the G6 (whilst a good bit of...

So? I run my Q6600 at 4GHz, and cool that with a 3x120mm, with an overclocked 8800GTX in the same loop...

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I can have either the two DL380s, or the two DL360s. Not both. When I first got the request, I thought - great! Nice and simple, the hard bit is extracting from the business what they want it to do! Not that I'd be doing it with my hands tied behind my back...

Yeah - you kinda see the problem I face. I can't use the MSA1000, that's apparently allocated for something else, and I can't buy 'new' hardware, any money has to be spent on upgrading old kit. The MSA1000 doesn't have the built-in switches, but fortunately the one thing I do have is 24 ports...

Right guys, my brain is frazzled and I haven't the foggiest how to accomplish this. Also not sure that this falls under 'PC and PC Gaming' - I don't think these are particularly 'personal' computers! Lol! I have: £20,000 budget 2x HP ProLiant DL380 G5s, with dual E5345 processors and 4GB...

Raid 1+0 (4 disk) for OS, Raid 5 for data storage. 12 disk home computer FTFW.

I roll round that part of town. Not got a Clio though.

No no no! Type 'pci32 > report.txt'. Report.txt won't exist until the pci32 executable creates it. But as I said, unless you can get either the Universal Audio Architecture patch from Realtek drivers, or your systems manufacturer, or install Service Pack 3, then no matter what s**t you do...
