So I just bought a new Western Digital 640gb harddrive. I installed it into my computer, its plugged in, its detected. However, wont make a partition. It keeps asking for a driver but then it says it cant find one. I've formatted it over and over. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. Can anyone...
is vista doing a lot of 3d rendering for the OS? doubling my resolution, is that more stress on the videocard than it is on the processor, say even for games?

o its not connected to the front panel. im plugging my speakers directly to the card. i asked another forum and they said if i had moved it to a different slot by mistake, that may be my cause.
my soundcard is an X-Fi.
So I finally bought a Antec p180. Pretty sweet case I must say. I swapped every component over. The only thing different about my computer is the case.
Some reason now, I get no sound. First of all, my speakers are on, they are plugged in correctly and I am playing a working media.
Now I...
Well I'm getting this mobomobo from work and need ram.
Been looking at newegg and found infineon to be the cheapest but i dont know if its good or not. im on a tight budget but dont want something that will break on me within the year.
I'm planning to build a new system for myself and was wondering if it is worth it to get a Dual Layer DVD+/-RW. My main priority is to get something that is efficient and will last me for many years to come.
I've read an article on Anandtech saying Pioneer DVR108 is the best DVD+/-RW out...
