Now you can play a game....

For each megabyte of data you install of software, drink a shot of vodka.


:D Or maybe thats not such a good idea if installing many gigabytes.

Re: Building my own PC
 

Tell you one thing.....this PC's a bit of a noisy b*stard.............I'm going to have to look into that :D

Cd drive is a bit quick! :)

Re: Building my own PC
 

I'm glad I installed XP Pro on my IDE HDD rather than my S-ATA drive from the problems you had Rammy, I don't even have a floppy drive! :D

Re: Building my own PC
 

Rammy only had issues installing his raid configuration, not the fact it was sata over ide ;) as they both operate in the same way singely ;)

Re: Building my own PC
 

There wasn't a problem with the sata or raid setup, the problem came from windows setup neglecting to tell me that it had actually loaded the raid drivers..........

Re: Building my own PC
 

Glad you got it up and going rammy :D :D :D :tu:

Re: Building my own PC

Re: Building my own PC
 

I would do it again.
.....btw.....I am typing on my new pc that's connected via it's onboard wi-fi :D

Re: Building my own PC
 

Nice one Rammy - I have dished out a few reps as per your request :tu: Gaz
