How to Install Win XP with an iso file?

Is there any way to install windows XP using an ISO file, without burning a CD of it? Like, i can mount the file in daemon tools and it come up and everything, yet... Is there some way to mount a file in dos? And yes, this is a legal ISO file. I got it from microsoft's academic alliance...

Anandtech member murders 2, commits suicide in Aliso Viejo

darkplayer, { did I ever say that you told him to pull the trigger? I was not pointing fingers at anybody. I was just bringing up a general point. Maybe he was surfing the forum and all the derogatory comments he recieved he interpreted as "You are worthless or Your life is a waste". Now, I...

Anandtech member murders 2, commits suicide in Aliso Viejo

wow... I am amazed by all the crap in this thread. All you who said, "He'll burn in hell for this.". Well, Imagine that YOU were the one that egged him on to do this action during a depressed state of his where he would listen to almost anything. So you tell him to kill people and commit...

6800LE

got lucky :) 6800 LE is great for the price. I got about 6000 3dmark03 with nothing unlocked, which is pretty good. I unlocked mine to 12/5, the last vertex shader is horrible when unlocked. The other 4 pixel pipes work pretty well. I see HUGE rendering errors in 3dmark05, but not really...

6800le cards

I remember that newegg used to have a PNY oem (white box) 6800 NU for about 155 a while back. But I believe a lot of people had missing parts or non-working cards. I bought the 6800LE and I hope to get it soon. Good deal if I can unlock at least 4 pipes.

Good cheap socket 754 AMD proc?

Hey, I'm looking to upgrade my PC a bit, and I can get a DFI NF3 socket 754 for about 80 bucks.... I have a limit of about 200 total (not including hsf/fan, and I have ram already). I was wondering what would be a good processor that would OC and give good performance. Right now I have a...

I'd take the 3880 IMO. Looks real nice.

New Proof that 1 = .999999999 Repeating

actually it's applied to all threads you post in, so you make every thread unsuccessful and unpopular. Oh well. so are we saying .99999...8 = .999999999... = 1 as well?

Identifying memory bus width on Geforce 5200 cards

I know you're looking at silent, but i still think you'd be better off with a TI-4200... I personally don't think mine is very loud, and i'm sure you can buy a third party cooler if you think so.

Difference between 128mb and 256mb graphic cards?

yeah i didn't think the 9800 pro was as fast as the X700, so i would say the vanilla 6600 and the 9800 pro are ABOUT the same. Remember each card has it's strengths and weaknesses. but OC'ing the memory on the 6200 will let it pull ahead of the 9800 EDIT: is there a VGA cooler or fan that...

ok that makes sense. It's just hard to remember what words to use :) EDIT: lol at But do you understand it better than someone who only understands it 99.999R% in the scope of the class?

well, math teachers always hide the "truth" and you figure out the "truth" in a later math course :) as for surviving calculus without knowing what I was doing? I understood calculus 100% in the scope of the class. We were told if you get one of the indetermininate forms after evaluating...

... I think what he meant to say is "Unlocked and OC'ed the 6600 beats or equals the 9800 pro). It really just depends on the game you're playing. The mem on the 6200 won't ever reach the 900 mhz mem stock of the 6600 GT for AGP's, but I hear people pushing 700 mhz ram on the 6200. That's...

New Proof that 1 = .999999999 Repeating

this comes up all the time in every forum, but i haven't ever commented. lim 1/x -> 0 as x -> infinity = 0. so then ok, 1/infinity = 0 because you can't have .000000 ..... 1 because 0's are infinite. but then 1 = infinity * 0? it doesn't follow that basic rule of divison. infinity * 0 is...
