Since I am the post whore and my messages take up useful space...here is another chunk of crap for you to sink your teeth into. What are known faults with Intel and Amd processors? Also, my motherboard is now supporting a two gig harddrive...I'm not sure what type of motherboard it is but I can tell you it is a Gateway Astro...I would like to stick a larger harddrive into it...does anyone know if I would have any conflicts with the size of the new harddrive...such as it being split into a bunch of two gig partitions or anything of the sort...do a search for Gateway Astro specs and check on motherboard. I would appreciate any information leading to the apprehension of the people who brought my antipoints down to 3...I am sure after this thread...I will be down to a negative number...but that's how it is used to weed the l@m3rz (me) from the l33t (the ones who **** on me)...thanks all for any contribution to my destruction...appreciate it...
