You just need to double click on the border around the task manager display.As for page file size, You go to Control Panel (should be under start in XP) System (if you just see a screen that says pick a category go to the sidebar and click "classic view") Next you need to click on the settings button in the performance box in the advanced tab Then click on the advanced tab in the window that pops upnear the bottom there should be a button that says change in a box that says "virtual memory"click that button!I have the same problem with TF2 occasionally, and I'm not entirely sure that it is a problem with page file. I just increased it again, so we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ipp Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Instead of going to "My Computer > Properties" just press the Windows Key and Pause Break(located next to F12) at the same time. Otherwise you may end up just clicking properties on a shortcut not giving you any of the "goodies" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Goodypants Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 It's not actually that difficult on a core2. They overclock very well due to the 65nm manufacturing process and the lower power requirements of it. The 65nm Conroe cores and the quad-core kentsfields are especially good for oc's. I don't know much about their 45nm Wolfdale and Yorkfield cores yet, but since they're on a smaller process yet I'll assume that they do just fine with heat.SteamID: st. goody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralleac Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 (edited) Woot, my parts are in and I put everything together today.Evga Nforce 780i mainboardKentsfield Q6600 Core 2 Quad Processor2 GB Corsair Dominator DDR2 1066 RAMEvga Geforce 8800 GTS 640 MBCorsair 620W power supplyI still want to get a new HDD and CD/DVD-RW drive, but the old ones are working fine as of now. I'll probably have those picked out and ordered or purchased soon, but I may wind up being impatiant enough to just go to Fry's instead. I may wind up SLIing a pair of cards in the future, but for now this is working great as it is. This is the first PC I've put together from the ground up for my own benefit (as opposed to labs in class), so it's been fun.

St. Goodypants Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 Nice overclock on that core 2.I still don't understand how anyone runs a cooler that large with an elevated heat pipe design. The thing weighs almost a kilogram! I'd be a little scared that I'd damage my motherboard in a vertical case. It's also 15.5cm tall so...You've gotta tell me about it.
