This weekend just gone I bought some more hardware to finish upgrading my system Quaddy chip more ram which means I will have to get a ligit copy of win7 64 bit as I have herd that the 64 bit hasn't or can't be cracked and my system will have 5 gig of ram (gpu 1gig)+4 gig of normal ram . I don't mind paying $100 but not $300 for it so thank's wiggo Microsoft keeps redirecting me back to the ozzie site and they can go to hell for the price they won't me to pay there |

Checking out the prices on that site Wiggo linked, they are practically on par with what they cost here. |

It's just been pointed out that the prices Wiggo & I have been quoting are for OEM disks whereas the prices Glenn has quoted are for Upgrade & Retail disks. Glenn, check out the OEM prices there's a huge difference between the 2. |

I havn't bought upgrade or full retail disks since way back to Win98. I can't see the sense in them when you can buy some hardware and get an OEM disk at a much more reasonable price. Cheers. |

I installed this sh)*&^$^t and I wished I hadn't. After I recycled the machine, I immediately ran into problems. When Windows started loading it immediately went into disk consistency, which I canceled so that windows could continue loading. I deleted/un-installed the update, but it did not remove the disk consistency warning upon a recycle. It would not even let me do a system restore to a point before the install. The machine has shut down on its own approx. 4 times since then with no warning. I might have to reimage the system all over again. I just did this last Wednesday when I installed the new SSD. I don't buy computers, I build them!! |

Just a heads up... Win 7 update tried to push another nVidia driver update to me again today for my GTX580s. I hid it. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |
