300Mhz core clock on a 6600GT?

I thought the non- OC'd 6600GT's core clock was stock at 500Mhz? After setting up coolbits last night on my MSI 6600GT, the core clock was set at 300Mhz, and memory at 1Ghz with no overclocking.. Only after I checked the "automatic overclocking" option, did the the core clock jump to 500Mhz, and...

MSIVGA.OCX initialization error

Finally loaded the MSI utilities to try overclocking, and this is the error message I get, right after a screen shows what looks like a console with temp, speed etc... After a couple tries, and then uninstalling it then reinstalling it, it doesn't even go to the console screen, it just goes...

making a copy of my current HD

making a copy of my current HD

it's a western digital, but I could probably find a copy of maxblast. I downloaded a copy of Norton Ghost yesterday, but I think that creates an image file which wouldn't be bootable on the other drive.. eh, I don't know. That's why I'm asking you all.

making a copy of my current HD

I have a 40gig HD that is almost full, and have a 160gig in the mail from newegg... I'd like to basically copy the entire contents of the HD to the new one, and use it as the primary, and use the 40 as the backup/ archive.. How can this be done?

eh, I think we should all calm down. If wonho84 wants to wear the hall monitor sash and badge it's his choice. No harm done, at least for me.
