hmm, I also have a SATA II 250GB, but my windows shows 250GB...
Is Windows already installed? If not, just install and maybe update the "drivers" of the HD.

Sometimes a BIOS flash will help.Get the latest at your motherboard vendor website.

Oké, lots of discussion today...
And the conclusion is that i still got to get rid of my lags.
Stiggy still thinks that it's my internet connection and other think that's nonsense..
WakuWaku thinks it's my graphicscart...
Would be stupid to buy a new one and finally get to know i still lag...
So if there is still anyone out there who has an anwser on this problem please report it...

Great idea Mystic. But i can upgrade my Windows XP to vista for only €17,- because i bought windows between 2 dates... don't know which

hehehe

MrMystic · Feb 4, 2007

Yeah I know that it's possible to upgrade to Vista when you bought XP lately...

But hey, it's for those unlucky ones who didn't have the opportunity to upgrade for just 17€

Marcel Hulsbergen · Feb 4, 2007

Pure, where do you live, maybe i can come by and have a look at your system and see with my own eyes whats going on there. Send me a pm eventually, i want to help you.

Marcel Hulsbergen · Feb 4, 2007

Pure, i should wait a bit with Windows Vista, it's great but not for gaming, i would advise you first to make a dual boot system and wait fro good video drivers.

There aren't even Nforce drivers, untill now you still need to use the default Vista drivers which are not optimised for your hardware.

I think if you have problem now already, lag, the problems will get worse using Vista and Race.

I still have a dual boot system with Vista Ultimate too, and from time to time when new beta drivers arrive i test them, and i still am not satisfied with the drivers untill now.

Peter Meijer · Feb 4, 2007

Yeah i know, i didn't even have to consider about that

First i'll wait an half a year and then we'll see what happends

OKe ...
Can someone come to your house with his own computer? and try your connection??

dunnee · Feb 5, 2007

im never getting vista ... if u wont it give a review back to it .. but from what i have heard from many and many people ... said they " windows vista is to big and slowed down my computer speed ... took up loads of my cpu idle .. and i may have to upgrade my prossor to a duo extreme " and other ones sed basically same thing

... but i would like to hear all of you opininions ... it may look freaking amazing but it seems to be to much for computers ... i would say me and some programers may just make xp updates to make it better than vista and good speed ... i have got the upgrade but i will get it and then ill judge it all for myself but if its true with what loads of my mates say then its off and me and them will programe some updates ...

Bram Hengeveld · Feb 5, 2007

i agree with dunnee, but all new OS are designed for the newest pc's imo.

i have core 2 duo processor and a good videocard wich is compatible with vista, so i will test it in the near future.. but what wakuwaku said is more important.. install it together with your old OS to avoid trouble with gaming etc

dunnee · Feb 5, 2007

the stig @ .... ye that exactly right ... i have vista ready made computer but im not going to test until i get a standby computer so my gaming will not be affected and so i can report it .. but my mates and me are making updates for xp media .. or normal xp

but so that gaming will use the best of the computer for more powerfull gaming .. guess it will take awhile to make

... erm any ideas of how to do this and help i would love to hear .. but from what u heard from me and the stig .. stick to old os untill later modelled pc's have advanced a long way !!

dunnee and stig reports .. back to the studio

hehe

Bram Hengeveld · Feb 5, 2007

i am not telling anybody not to buy Vista.. I am very pro-vista, when all bugs are out, it will be the best OS for everything i guess

dunnee · Feb 5, 2007
