| 1167369 | 2011-01-05 21:44:00 | go linux and use wine? I am. Ubuntu. Because my current HD didn't like the transition from 1.8ghz Pentium 4 512mb of ram and shitty agp card to 3.4ghz Phenom 2gb RAM and built in nvidia gfx card. |

Thanks sorry I completely forgot about the p3's. I have a new problem now (yay!): I have tried Ubuntu 10.10 and 9.10, Kubuntu 10.10 and all of them have booted once or twice off the disk when no HD has been attached. Then refuse to boot after that with or without a HD attached. I'm getting a new sata HD 2morrow so at the moment I have a 40gig hd and dvd-rom drive running of the same ide cable (mobo only has 1 ide port) but they don't seem to work together (even tho they can from the same computer originally). The error(s) is some stuff in linux dos/terminal/what ever about it not being able to load the filesystem.hfs or similar Any ideas? |

| 1167375 | 2011-01-06 00:21:00 | PSU = Aywun 450w (did a google search only to find that they were based in hong knog and china then almost shat myself) will be replaced when I buy a gfx card. Jumpers was what I was about to start sorting they could be wrong (or not). Boot order is right (i think). |
