My Comp Died

Ah yes, just to point out I said it rudely because of Zeals attempt at flaming me.

But I'm in highschool right now, in C.E.T 3 (11th Grade) Soon as I get in Cet 4, 5, and 6 next year I will get to take a free A+ Certification Test, (yes, right out of high school) It will kick ass because I get to do everything for free, and I get a recommendation from my teacher for basically whatever I request. So that might explain why I don't know as much as you, hah.

Thanks for your help Sqrl and all the others that helped with the exception of D3V who can JUMP OFF A CLIFF AND BURN IN HELL. ahem anyways. im too broke atm to take it ne where so i guess ill be console gamin for a while. D3V, I NEVER attempted to flame you. I merely wanted you to stfu because u had NO idea what u were talking about. and while were talking about flaming attempts have you checked your "flame Zeal" thread lately. lol

I have absolutely no idea what C.E.T stands for. =)

Anyways, the actual A+ Exams are a joke and a waste of money, the only reason I have mine is for insurance purposes. But if you can write it for free then make sure you do good when you go in to do it. =)

Computer Electronics Technology. Really? The only reason I'm gonna get it is because of the fact thats its a certificate, and businesses like certificates

Sorry to bump but I just wanted to tell you guys I ordered a hard drive, installed it, and it worked. Thanks a lot to everyone who helped me.

Your very much welcome.

No, they aren't. They are just over priced and overmarketed crap.

The best gaming machine is a clone you either get a local shop to do for you, or build yourself, ensuring it's configured properly.

Especially things like running Dual Channel DDR in pairs, I still can't believe how many system builders offer machines with 800MHz FSB's and then allow customers to purchase a single stick of RAM!!! It cuts the bus speed in half for crying out loud, but they don't even mention it. (And if your really smart, you pay the extra $20 to get a matched pair that's guaranteed to work together.)

That's just one prominent of many, many, examples why if you want a gaming machine you do it yourself or get someone who does clones to do it for you.
