Re: wtf got some videocard fan problem

tbh, I have not heard of your "ventilator" at all, hmmm....

and I do not think there is any such software you speak of to detect the power usage/availibility.

Re: iTunes for Windows

You're saying AMD is causing your system to crash and the like?

The CPU is fine, most of the time it is the mobo's fault, and most of the time it is VIA's fault.

And Megla, I do agree with you...

Re: XP Home versus XP Pro

XP Home here, I didn't really think Pro was worth the extra £40 :p

although Pro does have "some" nice features, Home is more than enough for my needs.
