Neo4/sli, Venice 3200 with win xp Pro 64 Bit? Pros and cons?

The subject pretty much says it all. I'm a home desktop use of Office applications and gaming. Should I consider 64 bit OS or stick with 32 for now?
The components I'm ordering are in my signature file
Thanks

The x64 Edition is good for applications and multi-tasking, but no big gains for gaming...yet. True, there are few drivers for it, but they grow weekly, and the basic support is there. nVidia already has 64-bit graphics drivers, AMD of course has theirs and Maximum PC Magazine (July Issue) has links for those hard-to-find drivers.

Firefox / Safari / IE - with iWeb productions: pros and cons

Greetings!
I have started using iWeb (coming from FrontPage and a dab of Dreamweaver). Great, and, most importantly, very well integrated with the rest of Apple's programs and services and devices.
I have noticed that IE of course has trouble bringing up iWeb sites/pages: much of the time, IE just hangs, seemingly freezing the whole system (while posting "Done" on its bottom bar), and eventually breaks through and put up iWeb pages and sites quite truthfully. Firefox of course, which I have just installed in the Windows "side" of my MBPro/BootCamp system, blazes through iWed creations, just like Safari does. And, Firefox does not freeze. So, as I post my iWeb sites, I will include mention to install Firefox on Windows machines and just have it handy. Granted, most Win users WILL continue to use IE: so I must find ways to have my sites play in I decently.
RE: Firefox, I did notice that its screen fonts are NOT as sharp as IE's or Safari's same with Firefox screens in general: graphics OK, rest somewhat jagged/blurry) . Perhaps this does account for some of its speed. And even though I choose the option of letting sites exhibit their own fonts (rather a pre-selected one by Firefox - Time Roman usually), often Firefox picks its own font(s) to display text from sites. IE has better controls as to WHAT fonts will be displayed for a given site (i.e. the site's fonts, or IE's choice of fonts). So, Firefox's speed does NOT seem to come at no cost (I do like the sharpness of text in IE and Safari: anything blurry or stair-steppy makes my eyes very uncomfortable!)!
Another observation/question: as I finetune/experiment with a iWeb built site, I notice that text boxes that have been "imaged" by iWeb for one reason on another (example: text outlined, or underlined or made into hyperlinks) reproduces very faithfully what was in iWeb in the first place. Would that be then a good way to make sure that text looks exactly like it was intended and fits exactly right on the page? Or does "imaged" text produce larger (graphic) files than plain text (I suspect so).
This is an extraordinary forum indeed... With tools like iWeb and talented folks such as those sharing their amazing websites here, anything is possible!
- Thanks for any comment and advice!

CCM 9.1 dial plan with 11 digits Pros and Con

all I came into a new setup where they have the following:
DN: 11 digits (1XXXXXXXXXX) which matches the DID's
all LDAP users has +1 dialing in telephone field
I guest this was mainly used for + dialing
used across 5 locations
Now they want to add site codes (CCC+last4) 7 digits for internal dialing
-- plan on adding 20 more sites.
this would not be so bad if the site had DID's in a con't range. I am hoping this does not turn into a nightmare
plan:
leave the DN at 11 digits
change the display to show CCC+last4
create translation for the site code (CCC)
CCC.XXXX -- predot, prefix 1678507 = 16785075555
has anyone done this type of dial plan before? Pros and Con

Hello!
Please, explain a little bit more "this would not be so bad if the site had DID's in a con't range"..
Can u put some examples may be?

Do I need Flash player plug-in with Win 7 Pro and IE11?

Could I have a definitive yes/no answer to, "Do I need a flash player plug-in when I am using 64 bit Windows 7 Professional SP1 and IE11?"
I am using IE11 v.11.0.9600.16476
Flash v.12.0.0.38
I am not, as far as I can see, have any problems viewing anything. But Adobe insist I should be using Flash v.12.0.0.43 and they identify my browser as Gecko.
I understand that Gecko is usually identified as Firefox but is it correctly identified as IE?
Windows 8.1 with IE11 states that it is a plug-in less browser; but is Windows 7 with IE11 plug-in less or not...???
Very confusing!

If you go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ while using Internet Explorer your browser should be noted as MSIE. If not you have something wrong with your system. You may have some malware on
your system to cause a false indication.
I am using IE11 and when I use Adobe it identifies my browser as Gecko and not MSIE.
Mozilla/5.0 (IE 11.0; Windows NT 6.3; Trident/7.0; .NET4.0E; .NET4.0C; rv11.0) like Gecko
By the way my system is clear of malware.
May I ask again do use the version of flash that Adobe says is compatible with IE or the version that is for plugin based browsers? Or to put it another way is IE11 in Win 7 a plugin less browser?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Is Firefox compatible with Window Surface Pro and Win Phone 8

Is Firefox compatible with Window Surface Pro and Win Phone 8

A user posted here the other day who is using a Surface Pro 2, with Windows 8.1, so that should work basically the way it works on a desktop or laptop.
Windows Phone, I don't think so.

WIP: My adventures with 2011 MacBook Pro and Windows 8.1 including seconday HDD

So I've just lost about 3 days of my life trying to install Windows 8.1 (my preferred) operating system on a Late 2011 MacBook Pro.
I feel that I've learnt a lot and hopefully can share my experiences to speed a few of you along the process. This is my own experience please let me know if anything I have documented is not true and I will revise for completeness
What my initial goal was to have a dual HD set up with an SSD running both Mac OSX and Windows 8.1 (via Bootcamp) with a 2ndry HD in places of the optical (DVD) drive for shared storage.
I have tried all/some of the following:
Win 8.1 ISO from the MS site: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media
USB created using Rufus for Bios and EFI boot
DVD created using Windows 8.1 (can't remember how)
Yosemite USB created using: Create a bootable installer for OS X Mavericks or Yosemite - Apple Support
There are 2 main options when installing Windows:
Bios
EFI
Both have different pros and cons, which Im going to try and document here:
Bios
Full driver support via Bootcamp download
Slower (mainly boot time, not by much though)
Not quite as "native" as some may prefer
Limited number of partitions??
EFI
Fast
Native
Does not support video driver properly (no dual screen)
Audio does not work (says Failed to start device)
Here are some random facts I know
Windows DVD will only boot from optical drive when connected internally. If plugged in via external USB it stops at black screen with flashing cursor and doesnt progress
Using 5HT-2a's method on Redit (see below) and the EFI install, I get the Cx0000005 cannot find source media error and cannot install
Hacking the Bootcamp tool to create a Windows 8 ISO with all the drivers works (see link below) but when using it in EFI it crashes repeatedly during install so you never can complete the process (I think this is due to the video drivers) and therefore can't run Bootcamp assistant thus get proper trackpad support
Using lion10's method (below) for tweaking a standard Mac partitioned HD I was able to get past the cannot install Windows error ("windows cannot be installed to this disk. the selected disk is of the GPT partition style") and install Windows using EFI
Best guides/links I have found:
lion10's method:The ultimate way to install Windows 8.x in (U)EFI mode on Apple systems
5HT-2a's method: http://www.reddit.com/r/mac/comments/2fy3be/by_popular_demand_my_better_than_boo tcamp_guide/
skipsizemore's method: Can't install Windows 8 x64 on late 2013 MBP with1TB SSD
Bootcamp drivers 2 versions depending on Mac:
Older Macs: Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5621
Newer Macs (most 2013+): Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5640
Bootcamp Assistant Hack for USB creation on older Macs: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1680652There is an additional parameter required if you are using Yosemite during code signing (-deep I think, but cant remember)

What I ended up doing (so far)
I'm not 100% sure of the state of my disk when I got to where I ended up but I had previous completed the GDisk and DISKPART methods from 5HT-2a and lion10's methods. I was using a 128gb SSD
I then decided to start from the top (as I had previous installed Win 8.1 on the original HD using DVD)
So I ran the Yosemite installer (via USB) and used the partition tab in Disk Utility to repartition the disk into 2 partitions, 1 for OSX and 1 (ExFat/NTFS) for Windows
I then booted in Bios (Windows, not EFI) using the Windows 8.1 DVD using the DVD plugged in internally (wouldnt work using USB enclosure)
Installed Windows to the partition I created (probably the 4th one)
After Windows installed, ran the Bootcamp set up program
Reran Yosemite installer and installed Yosemite
Swapped out the optical drive for a larger HD (7200rpm) and formatted it with HFS+

After having yet another problem with my MacBook Pro and having to wipe the drive, I am now unable to sync my iPhones etc without erasing all the music on them. Is there a way around this? I have no other library!

iTunes is a mess! It couldn't find it's own libraries and I was forced to create a new one. Now I don't know where my music is or if any's missing.

How crap is that?
It's not crap at all.
It's not that simple. For example, I've 3500 songs on my MacBook but don't want them all on my phone, so I have to manually select each song again???
There has to be a solution.
Why not simply make a playlist with the songs you want on the iPhone?
and maintain a current backup of your computer.

I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am

I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am? I need them and don't want naturally to buy them again!!!
Thank you

Assuming you purchased QT Pro, you can always download it again at no extra charge by logging in to your Apple account.
Regarding FCE, there is no way to download & install the product. You need an original FCE install disk and your FCE serial number.
Final Cut Pro X (aka FCPX) can be purchased & downloaded from the App Store.

I only show one iCloud on my IPhone that can do a restore. I synced it with my MacBook Pro and I think that may have messed things up. Prior to that I have several backups. Will a "genius" be able to access the info I need?

If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

Don't worry! Everything should be back to normal if you follow these steps.

I have a long-existing iPhone 4s with one apple id and started a job where I received a macbook with another apple id. how do i get my phone to sync with the Mac Pro and secondly how do i get my music on there?

No not bothered about sycing apps etc it is all about calendars and maybe notes. IN terms of how its done I just want it the easiest way and preferably so that if an entry is made on one calendar then it populates the other.
Thgius is beacuse I have my work diary on outlok, which I then link with my ical. I want to make sure that information is then shared with her.
