I bet you'll never use it. If you're on Fista and everything works fine then it'll work fine on 7 as well. 7 is supposed to be even more compatible than Fista anyway.

this.

Also you can of course just install virtual PC and make an xp VM yourself, possibly not quite as fast (unlikely to be as polished etc) but will work without a problem.

Aye, I suppose. I just hate how many versions they're bringing out and don't really see why a few extra features cost nearly £100 more than the standard version.

Pretty basic:

Q6600 (Oc'd to something I forgot)
4870 512mb
2GB Corsair dominator
Xfi Xtreme Gamer
Cosmos S watercooled case
Hannspree 22" widescreen monitor.

It's punkbuster being lazy arsed worthless cunts and not supporting anything that's not final.

Looks like CoD4 and Beef work now


Windows 7: Officially Best. OS. Ever.

seriously it's that good.

Looks like it's supported by vlite too, to some degree.

Finally got off my lazy arse and n=made myself poor by upgrading:

GA-EX58-UD5 Intel X58 Motherboard
Corsair XMS3 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 (1600MHz) Tri-Channel
Titan TTC-NK85TZ Fenrir CPU Cooler
Intel Core i7 920 2.66Ghz D0 Stepping overclocked to 4.00GHz
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache - OEM
ATI Radeon 5970 2048MB

MINE! Not changed much from before, hence copious C&Ping.

ASUS P6T SE Mobo
Intel i7 920 D0 @ 2.66GHz
12GB Corsair DDR3 1600MHz (9-9-9-24)
Zalman CNPS10X Cooler (get a big case for one of these, it just fits)
BFG 260GTX OC2 Graphics
Gigabyte 3D Aurora case
A broken DVD-writer, and a not broken one that I haven't installed yet
5 x F3 Spinpoint 1TB (2 in Raid 0, 3 in Raid 5)
Logitech G15 and MX518
BenQ V2400W and FP222Wa Monitors

Silly question, but what is the best way to transfer things from old hard drive to new? I really don't want to have to reinstall everything.

I usually just copy my stuff over and see what works. Some does, some doesn't, some just needs a bit of fiddling.

wow will work, steam will work if you install steam, then copy everything over.

everything else depends on majick.

erm...


...how?

Either using networks and voodoo, or throwing old hdd into new machine.

I've always assumed a re-install was required due to registry entries. But I guess some apps and games don't use the registry, at least not for anything too significant.

However if you don't know how to move files around (or don't have the resources to do it) it's irrelevant.

The XP "mode" is just MS Virtual PC, which you can get free anyway - the only difference with Pro is that you get a free ready-made installation of XP to open in it.

I was replying to the last page, kinda.
