Added you in the list,s\welcome to the old school club. One of your mobo unstable? Describe more on it?

just simply very slow if compared to my other prescott rig..... doh.gif

and then the mobo got some port were broken down, keyboard and mouse port, some PCI slot and sound port. cry.gif

now the IDE drive detection in BIOS seems like very slow, but when i installed the hardware of my northwood machine into prescott and use the same IDE cable, the result are different.... blink.gif

still consider want to swap the northwood's mobo into the one which runs intel 945G and PCI-E with DDR2 ram when it totally down..... laugh.gif laugh.gif

ray, i m always here, just don't see any chance for me 2 reply u guys..observer only. If u wanna know, I m still on XP and XP rocks with my rig. Just processed 1000+ raw photos these few days and took up 30-40GB of HDD space. It's amazing that my rig still survives today after all those 'abuse'.  thumbup.gif  Photoshop CS4 had GPU acceleration for NVIDIA cards, so I do gain some advantage there.  flex.gif

I tried Win7 on another test rig, P4 with 1GB RAM. Runs fine, did not do extensive testings, lazy cause many other things to do.  nod.gif

The main point is: HDD usage for netbook (some comes with only 8GB SSD, slow also) and even if it runs, does it gives you the performance that you expect? points to ponder.

after saw ur post, wondering want to try out windows 7 on my P4 rig or not....

then windows 7 driver support ok or not? i can try it out on my C2D P8600's laptop.... rclxms.gif
