Yes I have heard about the book , but never seen it .This is with every book with tips and information ,there is allways a lot of stupid things before you find something interesting
About the computer , I probably expressed myself wrongly ,I just took the harddisk with win xp installed ,and put it , with every other hd and cdrom stuff , video card audio card , wintv , usb2 card to the other tower with motherboard and processor installed , and started the computer . Even win 2k started up and installed everything again .Nevertheless ,the guy at the shop had said I would have to reinstall from scratch . I had a lot of trouble because the screws of the cards didn\'t fit the holes , there was a difference of allmost 2 mm .
Now they fit again , allmost perfect .
I also found two settings to change in the bios, on the site of Abit (latest bios update ) to avoid a 3d screesaver and some 3d progs to hang after a few seconds , and yes I was happy to follow my intiution , and went looking at the Abit bios site , because I remembered seeing something there .Post Write combine enable , and No mask for Nbase enable .Don\'t ask me what they mean exactly , but they did it .
I\'m talking about an ati radeon card , not an abit siluro , so it was not evident .
Now I hope everything is back to normal .
