It's pretty bad when someone checks our mule and ogles over the gear. <3
I've done that. I was part of a Dynamis LS where the leader had their mule equipped with a Dalmatica and a pimp hat, meanwhile all the RDMs in the LS who had Xarc access didn't get a whiff of that stuff.

and it came with vista, what do you have on it now?
It will probably run XP, and if you add more ram it can run 32bit 7, but for compatibility I'd say XP
Right now I have 7 Ultimate on. Runs alright, better than Vista but I agree with XP.
I'm trying out this Mini-Linux thing and it's... nice. <_< I may have to dual-boot Linux and Windows eventually...
Scanning my HDD right now
what speed ram do you have in there right now? the 4200 stock?
you can get 2 1gb sticks and be good.
Vista is a downgrade from XP imo, triboot? :D
(Ubuntu should be a rather easy into distro, but my friend would recommend Slackware or Debian I'd think). I've barely scraped the surface of using it.

Oh, and we never did Xarc runs.
my gear all blows, it's sad...
I have 1 piece of decent gear and it's not even a job I play often...

I replaced one of the sticks that came with the machine, so I have 1.5gb right now. Though the memcheck I did earlier found errors. <__<
Sooo I may have been running on .5gb this whole time. This bodes ill.
Whatever version of Linux this Hiren's Boot CD runs is what I want :P

lol Well in that case, it blows! We don't screw anyone out of gear or anything for him. Just happens to be rather pimp, because that's how we do!

thought it came with 2 256's I closed the window now and don't feel like reopening it.
that's partedmagic, not sure if that's a full distro, but they are more or less the same, and have the same tools if I understand it correctly.
you have the option to use several kinds of ram, if you boot into the mini xp there's a tool on the hirens to do a full system info, um... hbcd menu > system information > siw (system information for windows) will tell you all sorts of things, but basically the speed of your ram sticks is what we're looking for.
Now that I think about it, this must have had just the one stick when I bought it.
I'm really hoping the 1gb stick isn't the one with the errors.
yeah but what speed?
your slots will take multiple ddr2 speeds non ecc
but whatever you have in should be the SAME speed, like it came with 4200, but you can replace it with 5300.
aka ddr 2667 (is the 5300)
it's the kind I'm using in the desktop I just bought off my gf's mom. it's rather cheap (but not as cheap as I was hoping) and you can find a good quality cheap pciex16 video card for it on newegg. like less than $100 to max out the ram and upgrade the video and it would run a good bit better.
I'd give closer prices but I'm about to go to bed.

Oh durr, now I see what you're talking about. Any way for me to check from PartedMagic? :S They're probably 4200.
Ugh, HDD test did not find any errors. I'm gonna continue this stuff tomorrow, going to bed ~.~
I forgot to mention, since this is a desktop.
take the side of the case off, and take a look inside, there's going to be cylinder like components on the motherboard all around, they should have flat tops, are any of them bulging?
and no hdd errors is a good thing.
if they're bulging, it's not good, but would explain some things.
and that's good as well, since software issues are cheaper to deal with.
It could be the ram, and would cause some severe issues...
that's the last thing to check though.
after you do a RAM check, I'd wipe and put XP on if you can, but I've never pulled off getting it to install from a usb stick, but my friend has (with driver packs and driverbomb) so I'll ask him what he did.

Much appreciated. I'm going to test the ram in the morning. I really hope it's not the 1gb stick, I would not be happy :|
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
