My highest is 30 so far.. heheh it told me I had too much time on my hands.. :p

Heh sweet.. not too bothered which one, just as long as it runs sweet. There'll be no USB components as it's an oooooolld machine so that's easy. I will be wanting to run it as a firewall eventually though so whatever's best for that.. :)

What about Mandrake 8?? :) How much space am I gonna need for each of these + StarOffice??

Sweet dude :) More reg tweaks coming shortly. :)

OKay, I have the system now. On-board 4Mb S3 Virge video, on-board sound. 32Mb SDRAM but got a couple of spare slots. :) So the question now is, which one?? Mandrake or Red Hat?? Or what?? :)

I know it's been asked a thousand times.. but I just wouldn't be able to consider mytself a Linux newbie if I didn't ask it again.. :D So.. it's going on a P133 w/ 32Mb SD-RAM, on-board sound & video, 2Gb drive. :) Don't want cmd-line install.. might get to that eventually but right now a...

Courtesy of Tuttle over at HWC: Also Maxout pointed out a useful system program: sfc.exe, which is found in c:\windows\system & can simply be run from the RUN window on the start menu. It checks for corrupt of altered system files, and lets you replace any files with their original version...

Heh I also have a feeling that it mnight not work if the version of Windows you're using wasn't set up as OEM during the initial install.. I'm sure there'll be some way of activiting it but I'll have to have a look around. :)

Hmm I doubt very much I'd be using the command-line mode.. it's gonna have 32Mb, a 2Gb drive, not sure of video.. think 16Mb something.. although that sounds funny.. It's gonna be running on a 14" that screws up above 640x480 anyway so won't matter too much if I can't get higher res'. :)

I installed Windows.. :D

Damn, that thing is purrrtty... :cool:

Hmm damn I forgot about this.. will get onto to it relatively soon.. :)

Have the option of picking up a P133 pretty cheaply.. if I did I would throw Linux on it to have a play around.. is this going to be enough?? :)

Okay so we gotta liven this place up a bit.. :) So I'm gonna start posting various tweaks to do with Windows.. well more like customisations actaully - leave things like mem tweaks to the HW section. So first up, one most of you probably know already. When you open the System option in the...

Uuhhhh dude if that was a quote from somewhere else you can hardly call it b[]your[/b] opinion now, can ya?? :p

Ya know I find these much funnier now that I'm working in tech support myself.. :D :D

Uhhh what's Sauron?? I want something that reflects me, rather than just my name.. :) So far I do like Wise-arse... :D

Dooooooooooooooode!! :cool:

Doooooooooooooooooooooode!!! :cool:

Depends on which OS.. Windows doens't have a problem.. .. but since this isn't Windows.. .. . I'm moving this topic.. :D
