Am I supposed to use a specific program to write it on CD or Nero is fine? It's the 2nd time I've written it on a disc (once on CD (7.04) the other on DVD (6.10)) and it still gives me the same errors... :doh: I'm not sure whether I have to prepare a partition especially for it or not... In...

Ok thanks, I'm downloading it now!

I think that Kubuntu doesn't have a version for my processor type i.e. Intel x.64 processor... Also do you have a link to the newer version of Kubuntu megamaced ? I wrote the x86 version on DVD but obviously it won't work with my Intel Core 2 Extreme processor...

Help would be appreciated, note that I haven't formatted the HDD for Kubuntu... but I don't even get there, so that shouldn't be the problem...

Well it was Aurox AFAIK...very unclear to use... it was very boring, I spent a lot of time finding what I was looking for... Anyway, I downloaded Kubuntu 6.10 and it gives errors when I boot using its DVD... something to do with Kernel. I've read the instructions but nothing specific about it...

Well because my ram is at a frequency that I can get from my mobo only if I update it at least to 1701... Other than that, I've always updated my BIOS without an issue.

Ok, then Kubuntu it is! Thanks for all your help guys!

another question: which one (taking my needs into consideration) is better? Ubuntu or Kubuntu?

So, of all those free OSs, which is the best equation of speed, reliability, ease of use and of course windows software compatibility? Would it be Kubuntu or Debian Linux or another derivative of Linux?

So you're saying that I can change how Linux looks and works, right?

Well, let me say it in a few words: I want it to be fast, reliable i.e. not too buggish, to run MS Flight Simulator X, MS Office 2007 and to support my nVidia GPU... And at the end that it would look good (if possible). I understand it's a bit too much to ask from free OS but I'd like to give it...

I've heard about this free OS, though since I wasn't at all impressed by Linux, I was wondering whether it's different from it... and what about windows software such as Flight Simulator, NFS and other games for Windows? Can they work under Kubuntu?

What do you mean by "flashing" ? My BIOS version is 1407 and at present there is the 1901 for it, I need to update it.

I've tried to update the BIOS of my Asus motherboard, but the updater utility on the asus website doesn't work with Vista even though they say it's for "all OS" note that I changed my search criteria to Vista 64 bit... :O Help would be much appreciated.

I will also add that with the 200mm fan on top and the 120mm in the back, sucking the heat out from an extremely efficient Asus Silent Square PRO brings temperatures of my Core 2 Extreme QX6700 down to as low as 22°C... Believe it or not. (At idle of course)

I've put a 750W thermaltake tough power... you don't need more really. And I've never had a case as silent as this one! :cool:

If you are looking for a bigger case that's not necessarily for gaming get the P180, though if you want cooling definitely get the 900! It's soooooooooooo quiet! Unbelievable! Also, I prefer the 900 because it's cheaper and better than the P180 in terms of gaming. :cool:

... problem solved, I got an Antec 900. Very nice!

Hi, I'm about to buy a P180 or an A900, depends which one will have a more efficient cooling system... also are there any other cases in that size that are as efficient? A comparison between the P180 and the A900 would be appreciated! Thank you.

oh crap... then I'll have to bear with Vista till the problems get fixed... :( :mad: :doh: I only have a XP PRO OEM... (SP2)
