Which would you buy? Win 7 or Win 8.1?

Thanks to everyone! I got a computer that I can start a web browser up on now, and it not crash three or four times. I didn't mean to start a flame war, it's not a big deal. There are other things in life to deal with. :D

I'll probably get sp3. Like I said, the MS site says you have to have sp2 installed. I guess I shouldn't believe what they say until I try it.

Well, I was just going on what the MS web site said. They wouldn't lie to me would they?o_O

On the MS site, it says that you have to have sp2 installed, before you install sp3.

That's a network install package sysadmins to use. Not for a single user. I'm not sure how I would use that.

Thanks all for all the replies. I had to wait to get back to work to reply. Just for future reference, The Anandtech forums don't show work in IE6.

Where can you find sp2? It isn't on MS anymore that I found.

Which would you buy? Win 7 or Win 8.1?

I'm fitting out a new pc, and I originally thought I was going to put FreeBSD on it, but, I probably need to have windows to keep up with my ASP .net work. I'm really not excited about spending $140.00, but, you have to pay if you want to play right? I've read some negative things about 8.1...

DOA boards, etc? Why so many?

Well, I feel a little better about buying now. I have to have this stuff from somewhere if I'm going to have a computer at home. Thank for the replies.

How does one, in the normal course of installing a board, put a screwdriver through a board? This is not a person I want to hang around with.

DOA boards, etc? Why so many?

I'm looking at Newegg to buy a new board and all for a new pc. I've bought a few boards and stuff, usually Asus, from them and never had a bad board or bad part from them. A bad board was not unheard of. but, now, it seems that every board reviewed, Asus or otherwise, has had multiple DOA's or...

Old pc giving it up. Need board, cpu, ram.

I was looking at this ASUS P8B75-M LX PLUS board, and it has two ddr slots. Do both slots need to be filled, or can I run one 4 gig stick? I've always bought Corsair, would probably go with that. And, while I would like to get win 7 or 8, I just might go unix for a while. I have a laptop that...

Thanks for the replies. I'm going to go shop around now. I might be back to ask more questions, if my pc holds out. I had to yank the ide hdd to get to running tonight. bios wants to look on it for the os, even though the boot order is correct.

Old pc giving it up. Need board, cpu, ram.

Seven or eight years ago, I knew a little about hardware. Now, I don't know jack. I have an old Asus P4P-800 type board and ran a 2.8 Celeron in it on XP. I have one ide drive and one sata drive. All this is seven or eight years old. I've always used Asus boards, but I don't need to spend any...
