anyone know why my firefox runs very slow on my windows 7 64 bit computer? i tried everything, from reinstalling to turning off add ons
I’ve moved on to google chrome a long time ago :/
i left a reply. but it now seems to have disappeared into glitch heaven.
try a program called glarys utilities. it sound like you may have some spyware or some registry errors. glarys utilities covers a very broad spectrum of problems ( its also free) so give it a shot..
is the problem still persistent?
Google chrome is pretty good. I like it much better than internet explorer and mozzila. THey tend to get viruses easier.
its not a virus problem because it was like that ever since i built the comp, and google chrome i tried but i dont like its interface

I am good with running SDK on Windows 7 and using it for my game projects. I have more availability with windows explorer and mozilla for the browser games as well.
Just got my legit copy of Windows 7 Ultimate
that thing is a nightmare if your computer ever dies. you cant seem to do a file transfer because its afraid of being hacked or something just as ridiculous.i went with windows 7 pro myself
you can get a legit windows 7 64 and 32 bits on that MSDNAA site from school

PC Builds: 1 year, 3 months ago · ViewI’ve got an Asus motherboard with:
Athlon FX-74 Dual Core @ 3.2ghz
4gb DDR2 PC8500 (2 Mushkin, 2 PNY)
eVga 9600GT SSC
900gb @ 7200RPMI was reading about Athlon cpus in an article for top gaming cpus for January 2011 and I had never heard of them. Was there a reason you went with it or was it just what you decided to put in?
At the time, that was the fastest dual core CPU available, and Intel was still stuck on their old CPU/RAM bottleneck (what was it, something like 233 MHz?). I also had (technically still have, although they aren’t made anymore) the option to put a second CPU on the motherboard.
In any case, Athlons were for a long time the best CPUs for gaming because their bandwidth between the CPU and RAM was much higher than Intel’s. Intel had faster chips, but it didn’t actually increase the speed at which they ran games due to the bottleneck.
I don’t blame you for not hearing about them, though, they’re practically like the Macs’ of the CPU world. They’ve been hovering at around 10% market share for a really long time. Nowadays, AMD and Intel are on a much more level playing field, performance-wise.
OOOOOOOO

ok so WTF! anyone using windows 7 64bit that figured out how to work Unity? When I try to open the application it just loads for 3 seconds and stops like a big F U.
I had a friend put it on his D drive…but that’s my CD drive…I don’t have an empty drive. Should I just throw it the regular Program Files folder as opposed to the x86 one?
If anyone has suggestions please let me know. It’s the difference of a 15 inch monitor to a 24 inch monitor
is it set to work at an administrator level? and did you make sure to keep it in compatibility mode with windows xp?
Maybe there’s a 64x version of Unity?
there’s no x64 version of unity and i have the exact same problem, but i read online that it might be the 2010 Kaspersky that i installed on my computer, im gonna try replacing that with a 2011 or 2009 and see how it works then because i had the pre 3.0 version of unity and it worked just fine on my x64 computer
If anyone wants it i have a crack for window 7 ultimate.

PC Builds: 1 year, 3 months ago · ViewAs long as I can play D2 and run Unity I am happy
and D3 whenever blizzard decides they need more money and release it
yeah. like 10 years from now…lol. what they have shown looks pretty amazing though
What if d3 requires a Crysis box? How intense would that be?
Starcraft 2 has and extreme graphics setting, my processor is not fast enough even though its at 3.2 ghz lol i keep that setting on medium so i can actually play the game
Unity is an amazing tool that should be exploited very much so.

I’m a Mac! But I did partition my hard drive using bootcamp just for the SDE program and have half of it running Windows 7.
I wish my mac had enough space on it for a partition. I’ve just come to terms with waiting until I get home to work on 3ds max stuff etc.
Yea, I don’t use very much space at all. Honestly, I would like to know how so many people use that much hard drive space. I only have a 120gb hard drive.
i HATE that 3ds max doesn’t work for mac. Maya does. So WTF Autodesk, step it up.
As I’ve said before ”No because 3ds MAX. Like plural mac. Macs. 3ds Macs. Come on Autodesk.”
I thought about buying a mac and partitioning it with boot camp to run all of those SDE programs that are PC only. How is it working for you. I had heard rumors that 3DS Max and some other programs don’t work very well on bootcamp.
I have no problem running any of the SDE programs that need PC. I have 3DS Max 2011 used it all of last semester. Unity works, Visual Studio works. I’d say go for it… Macs are cooler haha

I am with you on the AMD builds, I have always built amd systems until the i7. They were always extremely stable and took one hell of an overclocking beating haha

i was thinking of getting corsair when i was building my comp, hows it run?
Highly recommend their psu’s and this is my first set of their ram but so far its been really great. Passed burn in with no problem first go and didn’t really have to tweek them a ton to get it flowing nicely
i got kingston ram ddr3 its really good too, i think i need one more stick though cuz currently im at 4gb
