    We finally got a new family computer which is used for the internet, solitare....


    We went from a 6 year old Hp with a celeron, 256MB ram, 60 GB HDD to a home built with a E6550, Gigabyte G31M-ES2L, 2 GB ram, 250 WD HDD


    Plus I put a Q6600 into my rendering system :thumb:


    Now I don't have to wait for anything

    Congrats on the new hardware. Nah, you're demands will just grow with your hardware. Mine sure did.

    You'll want higher resolutions, more sampling...

    My new Q6600 is acting weird, ever since I replace the old E6550 with the Q6600


    it boots up fine but when I go to the admin account on XP Pro it will show the desk top for a few secounds then reboots but if I go onto my guest account it works just fine no random reboots
