    Cloning drive problems

    Was hoping to come back with positive news. I shrunk the partition and Clonezilla is still saying the drive is too large to clone. Still showing 1tb and not the new size I shrunk it to. Was I supposed to do anything else after shrinking it in order for Clonezilla to recognize the new size...

    Lag after installing new VC XFX 7950

    Never had any problems before. Guess there is a first time for everything. Dont know the proper steps nor the program to use. I went on AMD's site and dl'ed the latest Win7 64 bit drivers. Those are the drivers I currently have installed. Thank you for taking the time to post though;)

    New Corsair Power Supplies at NewEgg Now

    Good points!! Guess having many problems in the past with fully modular makes me appreciate the semi modular. I bit on the 750hx, to good of a deal to pass up. Got it today and couldn't be happier as it looks, feels and performs like a well built machine. O and that velvet bag it comes in:D
