| 186073 | 2003-10-26 07:20:00 | LMAO :D Good memory you have there, Jester. :-) Sorry to disappoint you but I haven't actually played AA before - that was just a bit of BS fed to Radz and Liam to wind them up. :p :D There are other people here who play AA though, Greg is one and nzStan another. Check out these threads for some AA discussions. :-) Free Game - Americas Army 1.9 released (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) I got americas army again.. (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) Fix for Americas Army 1.9 login/time-out problem (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) Nice PC specs you have there, too, I bet that leaves you hanging on for dear life. ;-) :D Radz seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth, I wonder where he is these days? |

If you are talking here about networking your other PC it won't matter as to Fat32 - NTFS. NTFS is a far superior file system. What you can do is make your data partition fat32 but the others NTFS. |

| 186077 | 2003-10-26 13:58:00 | >A separate swap partition is a waste of time IMO. I have never seen any proof that it improves performance. I have two HD with Win2000 and RH9. I have my swap Partition on different drives for each OS and it does make a big difference. Windows gets very fragmented when the swap file is on the same partition and controlled by Windows. |

Wrong again. You quite often have a few personal settings that can be retained when the program is on a different partition. I have never had a problem in reguards of the registry, with having my programs on a different partition |

| 186079 | 2003-10-26 14:18:00 | I hope you don't rely too much on your Ghosted partitions to save your valuable data. Over the years I have had great problems encouraging people to keep a backup off site. Actually I will rephrase that to say I have had great problems encouraging people to keep a backup!!!! Set up a tape system for a firm about five years ago with incremental backups five days a week with a full one on Saturday and told them to keep them off site. Went back about five months later and found all the backups next to the PC and that they had not done one since I had left. |

The Ghosts on the other partitions are those I regularly make of my system so that I can return it to how it was if I have fiddled too much. :p If they were lost it would be an inconvenience not a major heartache. The essential data, including a System Ghost, is backed up on CDs as well as on the second hard drive. |

| 186082 | 2003-10-28 18:52:00 | So if you have your programs on another partition,and you reload your OS,does that mean that the programs have to be reloaded as well? Thanks. |
