Lol, not trained for vista ha ha funny stuff. If none of that works then I have no clue what is wrong lol good luck with it all though :)

900w PSU is pretty extreme. You could save some money and get a 600-700w that will more than suffice. I know how you feel about AMD. I love AMD, but I am not going to buy one thing when I know the other product is better and at the same price or less. I would either wait for the next round of...

Oh also do you have access to another computer? If all the above I listed fails try this: Connect to a second computer with a sata/usb adapter or just connect it internally, run western digital tools to format and create a new partition. I have read around where someone had similar problems to...

Try this: 1) turn off ACHI 2) turn on SATA Port 0-1 Native ON. If that doesnt work then use WD Digital Data life guard and test your HD.

Have you checked to make sure your HD is not in Raid via the BIOS? Also are the drivers on your disk for vista or xp? Also are you using a 64-bit OS?

Yeah for anyone else confused all he did was go into display settings and check extend desktop to this display

Did you configure the boot drive sequence in BIOS to actually use the SATA ports to find a bootable hard drive? Is the SATA controller enabled in BIOS?

I have 4gig's of memory too and I want to use all of it, but I hate the thought of 64-bit because of alot of the compatibility issues :(

Yes, but it depends on what he means by video editing? Will he be gaming more or editing more then decide on the CPU. Either way they have both options now :)

Well it depends on your budget, but here is what I would go with: ASUS P5E LGA 775 Intel X38 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131219 $224.99 Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0GHz LGA 775 65W http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115037 $194.99 MSI GeForce...

Antec Twelve Hundred is a beast. About 200 bucks for it, but it is bad ass!

Yeah I was a used to swear by AMD until the C2Ds came out. E8400 is just under 200 and it out performs the Phenom. Here is a link to the comparison between the two: http://www.tomshardware.com/charts/cpu-charts-2007/quake-iv,389.html?p=1267%2C1308

I would just spend 200 and get 1 8800GTS 512 and save yourself 60 bucks towards something else :) .

lol didnt read that part...I just kinda skimmed your post. Have you updated all of your drivers?

You are running a 7900 with the build above you should have just spent 200 more and gotten a 8800 gts 512. Your GPU is more than likely bottlenecking your CPU. That is definitely the source of your low marks
