Yes. Just put the HDD in your new configuration, boot from the windows installation disc, select custom installation, format the HDD, and install Windows.

I have a graphics question. When I'm setting my graphics in game it says that the recommended setting is ultra. Does the game actually check my hardware and make a decision based on what I have or does it have nothing to do with my setup and is just "recommended."
MLG: How is your Protoss? Idra: I make Blink Stalkers, so really, really good.

That sucks because I can't even play on high settings without lag/ framerate issues.

So I got a SSD for my laptop and to use again when I build a desktop. Is it ok to switch between my SSD and my HDD in my laptop? I know I can use an external but sometimes I want to boot off my old HDD if it won't harm anything.
is there anything special I should do for the ssd? I've checked to make sure trim and ahci are enabled and turned off auto defrag. Should I leave any space empty? If so, how much?

I was using the IRC webclient yesterday on TL, and when i shut down my browser (chrome) it stopped responding, froze and then closed.
Now i cant use the webchat client or connect to irc.quakenet at all
my internet connection is good and i don't have problems with any other sites i try.
i can get onto quakenet.org but i couldn't find anything useful. (when i click forum all that comes up is (Index of /)
why click the http://www.teamliquid.net/irc/ link on tl and then click inspect element i get the "This web page is not available" page. the IRC chat doesn't work either. I don't know what to do. help me
Edit: seems like it was just a problem with quakenet lol

Ok guys here's the problem, I can't play SC2 at school! It always comes up with player found but I never get into the match. I did some research and I thought the problem was my school has to open up certain ports: http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/832174144

I emailed and told my IT department about the problem and they responded with this:

"I've also explicitly allowed traffic on that port to any server on the internet. You should be able to connect ok. Thank you."

Did they do something wrong because it still isn't working! Any other ideas?!?!


thanks a bunch.

Edit: They also said they allow all traffic out of the network.

I'm able to download windows 7 tanks to MSDN AA. I have the choice between 4 different versions:
-W7 Pro - 32bit
-W7 Pro - 32bit with SP1
-W7 Pro - 64bit
-W7 Pro - 64bit with SP1

I am already using my W7 Pro - 64bit. What I want to know is if I could have a different key for each of them, or do I have a single one?
I would like to install an other W7 Pro - 64bit on another computer and I was thinking about using the W7 Pro - 32bit key with the 64bit DVD for the install. Will it work?

When I had access to MSDN, I could download French or English 64bit, I could use the French key on for an installation with the English DVD. Not exactly the same, but maybe it helps.

What program should I use to overclock/underclock my video card?

My video card - GTX260 oc 216 - runs too hot and I only really play SC2 on it so I was hoping to underclock it to stock settings to avoid issues(it frequently blacks out and flickers.

What apps can I use? (nvidia doesn't seem to have its own built in software as does ati and I tried looking for the tools I used to use years ago but rivatuner and atitool have fallen out of date it seems.
I have a recurring dream that I'm running away from a terran player but the marauders keep slowing me down. - Artosis

Have you tried MSI Afterburner? It should be compatible.

I recently built a new computer, and I am not able to connect to the internet. i plugged in the ethernet cord into the correct slot, and it will not show up on my computer. I know the internet works, however, since I am able to type here. Could anyone give me any troubleshooting as to why I can not get internet (I also tried a USB-Wifi adapter, but it just won't recognize internet)?

You need to install the network drivers that was provided to you on the motherboard CD.

the card shouldnt run too hot . rather clean out the dust then cut back on performance. in general, if something runs too hot at stock settings something is wrong.

No, you can't install W7 32bit with the 64bit DVD.
You can usually however get as many keys for W7 x64 as you want (I have about 5 copies with different keys registered on my MSDNAA).
If you can't do that, SP1 or no SP1 doesn't matter since you can always install SP1 afterwards and the keys should work for both.

Sorry, but I have one more quick question. My picture on the monitor doesn't go over the entire screen, only goes about 80-85% of the monitor. It is in the center of it, instead of taking up the whole screen.
