I started up sysprep 2.0 and I don't see a PnP option, unless your talking about the detect non plug and play option. Also when I reseal it says that I have chosen to regenerate security ID's and this is only needed if I plan to make an image back, so is that right or should I check that box?

Isn't the 1901 bigger? I think I would notice that differance? Why would I want to get a 1901 anyways, whne I can either getting another matching 1800FP or sell mine and get 2 new 1704FP's?

I am currently and have been using a dell 1800FP for over a year now, its a great monitor. I was recently thinking of putting together a dual monitor setup. Basically what i was thinking was I could either find another 1800FP from ebay or somewhere for probablly around 325.00 or so. Or I could...

I have a biostar 200N on the way. Its an nVidia based SFF for those that don't know. I plan to use the onboard video and will probablly use it as my "playing with differant OS's box" I want to get some linux distros on there maybe some BSD's, who knows.

SO according to the unsupported scenarios link, going from AMD to Intel won't work? Specifically a sinlge AMD XP to dual Intel XP's

Actually the more I read, maybe VMware is the way to go for me.

Heres another question mor eon the topic of virtual PC. I am currently building a new rig. Dual 1.6LV Xeons which i hope to clock to at least 2.8 or more. I am trying to decide what memory to use. I am wondering if I should skimp on the speed and just get more quantity. For example 2Gig of...

Thanks for the info on th elive CD, I didn't know about it HHUnt, thats the way I did it. Only I chose the no boot loader option, since it is the only OS on that drive, maybe that was wrong, maybe it needs a boot loader anyway. I am not worried baout being able to boot into XP as well, I...

Just did a real install, wanted to be absolutely sure I didn't kill my XP install, so i installed on a completely seperate drive with no bootloader, and just told the BIOS to boot off the drive with freeBSD on it. It booted to a grub prompt, whats up with that?

Yeah that handbook is huge, I have been browsing it a bit lately. I almost thought I got it installed under virtual PC, but it would only reboot to the ISO image, it owuldn't boot off the virtual disk. May have to build up the courage to do a real dual boot install

Just wondering if anybody thinks I am getting in over my head with FreeBSD, since I have very limited linux experience?

As did I, without that I may not be able to get it to work. But if it is really beneficial, then I will likely go ahead an actually install it on my computer.

Okay, thats what i downloaded, I will be using it wil virtual PC 2004. I see here that FreeBSD works with VPC2004, but it has some extra info in a link, but I can't access the link, the site seems to be down or something. Any idea what that info may be?

FreeBSD looks like it mightbe interesting, which release should I get?

I did try the Gentoo install a time or 2, but was having many problems with grub not working right and never figured it out even with help, so I gave up on it. But who knows maybe i could go back to it.
