You any good at it then Cern? I suck even on easy mode (not really, except Sweet Home Alabama, grrr). Tried About A Girl on medium once and already couldn't follow . Tried expert to see it once and let's say I'll never manage to play on expert, that's just bloody crazy stuff. Got it for my Wii as well and it's harder than I thought it'd be . The rockstar designer is great though, though I spent way too much money on silly costume parts I never use and now I can't buy the Tool tour, bah. Spent way too much time with it, just ask Las about the CoH character designer and my rerolls .

As for WoW I'm not sure, tempted to play again, but got 6 levels to go + gear up while everyone is lvl 80 already with good gear so will be hard to find parties for heroics, etc. Got time to play now though so might do it, dunno.

If you right-click on My Computer on your desktop and select Manage, does the drive show up in Disk Management? If so I think you just need to right-click and assign/change a drive letter. Shouldn't really matter where you put the SATA cable (especially if you say the HD appears in the device manager). But since you want to (re)install Vista on it anyway, why do you need to see it already? Just run the Vista installation and install on the new HD.

Personally I'd pull the SATA/IDE cable from your Samsung drive, install Visa on the WD drive and once that's done replug the cable, but mainly because I'm so used to the C-drive/partition being the boot drive. Vista does support being installed on another drive/partition, so it wouldn't be a problem if you do it otherwise.

Yeah sure, like I said, I' always up for an instance (and have 3 quests for Nexus ).

Yeah I'll be there, just hope you don't want me to heal cause my heal gear is banked and I'm enhance now, so heals are crappy .

Think I'll alternate between the 3 chars I'm playing (Gnome DK on Thunderhurn and Eara+Keaira on Wildhammer). Not interested in reaching lvl 80 fast, so I log out when bored and yes, sometimes it's after 30 mins .

Lightning bolt spam got old fast, so respecced Eara to Enhance and it's fun even with the crap gear she has now. I don't kill as fast, but the spectral wolves are great and it can only get better with gear.

Will try to get WotLK on Wed, but didn't preorder and not too fussed about it, even thinking of waiting a week or maybe 2 (dunno if I can though ) simply so I won't have to compete for every single mob kill. Also I cannot make up my mind about which char to play, prot pally is fun now, more buttons to mash and they've gained some needed dps, but Awakening still has quite a number of active tanks and less active healers, so it'd be easier to join raids with Eara, though right now I fail to see the point of resto shamans in a raid as both druids & priests are now better AoE healers.

Not interested in a DK either, so still have to make up my mind on which char to level, but got a slight preference for my pally so far.

Got Fallout 3 Sunday evening and finding it's fun, it's very different from the old fallout games, yet it seems to have the same atmosphere (not got very far yet). While it is based on the Oblivion engine it's not just Oblivion with guns and according to some things I've read it doesn't have the scaling enemies and it seems to be more focussed on its main quest even though there are plenty of side quests.

Loved the fallout games and it looks like it has the same atmosphere and the transition to 3D is very well done imo. They've also used more than 5 voice actors (hated that in Oblivion) and the radio stations are a nice addition. The combat system is cool as well, you can just fight FPS-style, but the VATS system makes fights a little more strategic (you can target body parts, but it uses up action points which regenerate over time, but you can still shoot in real time as well which doesn't use action points).

All in all I'm having a lot of fun in Fallout 3, but I loved the previous 2 games. The whole post-nuclear holocaust with 1950's technology is nice change from the usual fantasy setting and they've always included a lot of humor and pop culture references (kinda like Blizzard in WoW). So between playing some WoW again and Fallout 3 I don't have much time for WAR .

Looked some more into the PCIe 2.0, 1.1 & 1.0 compatibility and it's confusing as hell. Seems to mainly depend on the motherboard and gfx card. Some work, others don't. A 2.0 card is more future proof though, but if go for one, get one you can return, just in case .
