When your pc doesn't work right you must listen to the beeps.

If your dvd/cd drive isn't autoplaying, download TweakUI and that should sort out the problem.

There's a new kid in town.

EAC is an audio grabber for CD-ROM drives. It works with a new technology, reading audio CDs almost perfectly.

System Information For Windows

The third service pack for Windows XP has finally arrived.

The third service pack for XP gives you all the Windows XP performance updates, security updates and hotfixes that have been released since Service Pack 2 came out way back in August 2004. While Service Pack 3 may not be as big of a change as Service Pack 2 was, there are some noteworthy features from Vista that have been included in this release. Namely, NAP, a policy enforcement platform for limiting network access to secure machines, “Black Hole” Router Detection, a cryptographic module for the kernel and a new Product Activation module allows you to install XP without a product key.

If you want to give it a try, here’s a direct link to the English download :

For now, the release is just the 32 bit version. The release of Windows XP SP3 64 bit will coincide with the release of the Windows Server 2003 update, due to arrive in early June 2008.

Cool, I am afraid Vista is going to be the next windows ME.

Two words:

BL00DY F@ST!

from a marketing standpoint it may very well be. the bad thing about Vista is the window dressing and all the useless "Vista features". turn that crap off and you have a decent O/S.

I have Vista and XP. My Vista is ok. No problems yet.
