I was having a similar issue and just trying a few times it eventually works. Win 7 x64 with nvidia drivers as well. Seems its just temper mental and I never reboot my machine. Side note, im using 8800gt vid card with probably out of date drivers and have 4gb ram, gigabyte mobo, and intel...

Thanks, this has been really helpful. I spent a lot of time reading everything all over the apple site including some of the pdf manuals that are on their support site. I found answers to tons of questions I had in some of the fine print. Some things I learned recently that I didn't know are...

Awesome thanks. Are there more sites like this that do "reviews" like Thurrott does? Even if they are mostly just opinionated or a "hey look at these new features" type of thing. For instance, I can't seem to find too much about the graphing calculator app on Mac OS in the utilities folder but I...

Don't forget. Walmart now sells iPhones and you can apparently order them online http://www.engadget.com/2009/0...hone-3g-orders-online/ Not sure if online will work for the new ones though.

You guys are awesome thanks. I just spent about an hour with a macbook pro at best buy and im pretty sure im going to get one of those. I do have a question though. I consider myself a power user when it comes to operating systems and i know that mac os is based loosely on freebsd linux so a...

Didn't think about OpenCL. That and the new grand central apis for multi core systems ought to really pump these machines up. I'm really hoping Snow Leopard will be announced at WWDC or at least get a release date. They just did a cut off on the apis so thats a good sign.

I'm not too worried about cost though I do see some value in adding hardware after the fact, there are some things you just cant upgrade such as the screen. I'll probably end up picking someones brain at an apple store thats about 50 minutes from me to really make up my mind. Thanks all.

I'm going to order a refurb macbook or macbook pro after the June Apple WWDC event (pending some awesome announcement that changes my mind). I need the machine for school (CS major), programming, iphone dev, imovie video editing, some light photo editing and most importantly is batter life...

delete this please, someone already found this blog lol.

I found this the other day and while reading through it I was rather impressed with all the work this team is putting into windows 7. I also found some insight into their thinking this time around about making things faster overall. http://blogs.msdn.com/e7/default.aspx Also, the post on...

Dont edit boot.ini you could make your system unbootable. What happened is windows wrote two installs to the MBR, but this is an easy fix. Go to start > run > and type 'msconfig' not quotes and hit enter. In msconfig click on the BOOT tab at the top. Click check all boot paths, it will...

I usually play music in the background. My favorite is Red Hot Chili Peppers - Scar Tissue whenever im killing feral ghouls. Happened by accident but just seems fitting. Usually just put some songs in a playlist on shuffle. (genius on itunes works nice for this)

I recommend getting the ps remote control. Its great for movie watching controls and its bluetooth so you dont need line of sight to use it. Anotherwards, you can be in any room of the house and hit pause or play or power and the console will respond. Also, the remote takes 2 double a batteries...
