He prolly tried to pay with mommy's credit card but went over limit, and that's how he has a pretty good standing at ebay and heatware, which is now all flushed down the toilet if he doesnt pay.

OEM Versions of Vista - "Cheap" at Microcenter

I ordered the Ultimate 64 bit edition and got a confirmation and immediatly after that I was sent a backorder notice. I called in and canceled, what a waste of time. All I can say is, Microcenter sucks and i wont be doing business with them in the future.

A drive imaging program that actually works with RAID?

My Audigy 2 resets only if I run NTRegopt. Norton systemworks might have a similar registry defragger at startup that will reset the creative settings.

how to overclock intel 865 perl

Your intel board only has limited oc options in the bio's. On my intel 875 board Advanced chipset options set burn in mode to manual or aggressive, can oc 2% or 4% on the fsb, OR you can oc the agp/pci bus a little. Try the Abit IS7, heard its cheep and oc's good.
