DaPoets Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I still have to reinstall all my applications... I haven't had time to do much more on my computer than check my email and watch a DVD to relax... What happened to the days when I had time to Lapp my processor and heatsink, overclock my Q6600 till it smelled of burning metal, and fiddle with defective crossfire technology just to wake up in the middle of the night with a new idea and fiddle with it some more...

Perhaps you can make a LAN once they are back at my place. These are my initial 3 computer building steps... Install OS Install WCG Patch OS I think I had 2 result done while running WindowsUpdate. I prefer to have an updated system before installing wcg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaPoets Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 yeah the hair on the back of my neck raised up a bit... installing WCG before your OS is complete is kinda living on the edge... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParoxysM Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Just spent some time going through some stats and the top machines are Xeon X5350s (8 cores). My coworker had the wrong server delivered yesterday to their site. 2x quad cores w/16GB RAM. They ordered 2x dual cores w/4GB RAM. Oops, someone made a $30K mistake.
