For a similar concept, check out Car2Go. It's only implemented in two cities, (I'm in one of them), but its an interesting idea. With Car2Go, they've taken this concept even further: rent small, efficient cars by the minute! I have no idea how well the program is going overall, but there's...

I go by middle name, Evan!

I had my last desktop stolen, would like to build a new one but I don't have the money. This would help greatly

I will puss out.

Forgot to add: Thanks so much [H]ardOCP for letting me know about this!

Wow... I'd like to give some scope for how much this problem has affected me. I bought a Dell Latitude D820 during the time period (March 2007) with an NVIDIA Quadro GPU, and it completely went out on me this summer, only 3-4 months out of my warranty period. The display wouldn't turn on...

I think everyone's missing the point. It seems to me this would be a lot more useful as a training tool for real people to practice drills and such. There's far easier methods to pull a pin on a grenade than designing an entire autonomous arm and hand! The machines we really have to worry about...

basementjack: thanks for the response. I was able to show very minor improvements today: the first vista install screen now comes up in a couple of seconds or so. Yet nothing else has changed. I'm able to browse my HDDs if I do repair>load drivers. SO that's working properly, at least...

Yes, but I tried running Vista Install without any HDDs attached and I got the exact same behavior. If the problem is HDD related then, it would be at the chipset level rather than the HDD level. Maybe loading drivers for everything at the point when it asks if you want to repair or install...

I'm having a lot of the same problems as basement jack, ie vista (Ult, 64 bit) is taking way too long to bring up the first three or so setup pages, and refuses to go further than the "Enter your product key" page. I've tried reducing my HDDs (from two) down to one, i've tried AHCI mode, IDE...

wait.....wouldn't it appear backwards when you try to apply it? :confused:

this is cool

by definition, a tv must have some sort of tuner in it, as well, while monitors usually have none.

Im in, Im a new comer. will register and post later.

Thanks for the results, but could you try it again with the CRT set to 60 HZ as well? Not having them at the same refresh rate complicates the issue and inflates the true amount of lag.
