Just a reminder for those with sandforce based SSD's don't install intel rapid storage drivers because the computer will bluescreen at windows login even on safe mode

[Jimbo]

I have a vertex 2 and have used the rapid storage drivers with great success?

[mw86]

What ssd types use sandforce?Rapid storage drivers hmmm what drives have you experienced this with SpeedGonzalez? Congrats Vertex 2 isn't bad u see specs on Vertex 3 its blazing fast in sata3!

I personally not like, but maybe someone around here...

[iloveb00bs]

yeah i don't like the breed theme either but i really some of the older xp/vista theme to bad they don't work with win 7 very well.

i really like this wallpaper maker, but too bad they stop updating it.
