Hi, welcome to the forums. You may want to look into a boutique system such as Cyber Power PC: http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/
There is a user migration tool built in to Windows that you can use to transfer user accounts between computers, and this seems to work quite well. I don't think it will work by going from Windows 7...
You can change the resolution to be less so that the text and things appear larger, but try and keep the same ratio so that things don't appear stretched. Try changing the resolution to something...
First of all, there is no problem asking for assistance with boutique systems such as Digital Storm.
Secondly, I think that zburns has a good point here, allbeit in a slightly roundabout way, in...
zburns and I, posting at the same time, come to similar conclusions. :)
One thing everyone should bear in mind is that this is a custom Digital Storm system, so there will be some comeback if...
I would recommend having the SSD as a separate drive, if you have the space in your case; just makes it easier to deal with!
I also noticed that you mentioned using Premiere as well, which...
Just to throw in my .02 here, you may want to get a small SSD i.e. 32GB to use as a scratch drive for the CS5 products.
Welcome to the forums. :)
It is much harder to change a CPU in a laptop, but it is possible. You will need to take everything apart and then put it back again in the correct order. The smaller...
I think that the 570 will outperform the 6870 in most games, but it depends on the price difference; I think the 570 is about $60-$80 more iirc. If your budget can stretch to accommodate it, then go...
Yeah, that should be fine.
It does seem very hit and miss in terms of reliability with that card. How about this (the upgraded version of that card): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150506
Display...
Does your monitor have an HDMI input? I guess you could leave the new PC connected via HDMI all the time, then just change the monitor input to be VGA when you need to use one of the other PCs.
It would certainly be an interesting project - take lots of pictures if you decide to go ahead with it!
It could be that you need to install the USB 3 drivers that are available on that same page.
It is strange that it can't install the drivers automatically, but it may not have the latest drivers...
Both of these should be fixed by installing the latest chipset drivers from the MSI website.
When you say it won't let you install the drivers, what do you mean? Try downloading the "Intel 3/4/5...
You could try adding the Lexmark printing executable to the excluded files/processes in MSE and see if that makes a difference. These options are found in the settings tab.
From a bit of Googling,...
You should just be able to download and install the chipset drivers, and it will handle the updating of them automatically.
"Universal something" could be related to USB, so that may be why your...
Wow, two years since I created this thread... how time flies!
Merry Christmas everyone!
This is the expected behaviour on first boot, as there is no Operating System to boot from. You will need to set your BIOS to boot from the CD/DVD drive first, and install your OS.
Well, give it a try first of all. If you really don't like it, then just do a clean install of XP.
Microsoft did an offer in September, when all the students came back after the summer, where...
Hi kitube,
Bear in mind that Windows XP is nearly 10 years old now, so it really is out of date. Saying that it runs faster on modern hardware would be the same argument as running Windows 98 up...
Actually, I misunderstood - I thought it was averaging at about 70C! An average of 50C isn't too bad, to be honest. Going up that much when under full load is a bit high, but it should be OK. Does...
That seems reasonable, so I guess Coretemp may be giving you a dodgy reading. Try a different program like Real Temp: http://www.techpowerup.com/realtemp/ to confirm which of the readings is closest....
What temp does the BIOS show if you just leave it idling for a few minutes?
Glad it all went successfully! I reckon that an SSD is one of the best upgrades you can make for a system nowadays. I just can't quite justify buying one for my laptop... :)
