There was actually a video game back in the late 90s called crop circles - you are an alien who has to suck up cows into your flying saucer (cows are the fuel source).

Does anyone know how I can buy these online? Futurebazaar (same ownership) only sells Pantaloon and Big Bazaar vouchers online...

They've added a large number of registers for one. That is a big improvement, but it mostly makes the lives of compiler writers / assembly coders easier. If you have a point other than "there must be something", let me know. It will be fun to know what people think 64 bits really mean.

And why would it? What does 64 bit have to do with render times? Unless you claim that 64 bit integers are a common calculation, there is no reason why there would be any speed improvement. Of course it is not as simple as that, but the other improvements in the instruction set are not that...

We'll leave out where I work since I'm not really showing any inside knowledge off here. My point was only that Dell does not currently support 64 bit Vista at all (in the consumer segment anyway, they'll gladly sell you a 64 bit Server 2k8). They wouldn't be able to shift to 64 bit only in a...

After one of these crashes do Run > eventvwr.msc Look for errors.

You have Vista business? That means you can create a backup of the entire disk before doing anything. That way, if things go bad, you can restore the backup (as long as you have access to a Vista install CD)

^^Won't happen because OEMs like Dell refuse to support 64 bit.

^^Spam. No idea what iBoss is (could be good, could be bad) but notel1 comes in and posts his one and only post here? Wow. What a coincidence.

It is the 80-20 rule. Switching on the fan will not consume too much power if done judiciously. Switching it off will not save too much power either.

I see the PS3 fanbois are studiously avoiding posting here....

^^ Done a million times already.

If you want a cheaper and easier method, just use Windows Live Photo Gallery. Zero cost, and results just as good.

From now on xXx is going to be known as the most gullible TE member ever :rofl:

I wonder what "launch" means. It has become such a vague term nowadays.

Darky. Must be darky.

HP laptop eh? If you have access to a Vista DVD, try reformatting and installing SP1. Make sure it is a clean image. It turns out that some of the problem with Vista is that the utilities bundled by OEMs can cause problems.

^^And the point with commercial support is that it is paid for. So there goes the cheaper argument.

Dell will NOT give you a 64 bit disc. Dell does not support 64 bit Vista period (lousy buggers).

I'll give you an idea. Windows Vista and 2008 have a filtering API and a firewall API (which itself is built on the filtering API). Implement a filter on Windows which can accept pf/iptables rules (in short port iptables or pf to Windows using the APIs). PF is packet filter (BSD) and iptables...
