I noticed an occasional lag when opening explorer windows after I first nuked the drive, but it has gone now. I'm at a loss as to what was causing it or why it was happening in the first place. Maybe A04 fixes that issue

Hey Caps, I'm running the A04 Bios and had no problems. If you're concerned over the reports of the A04 Bios messing up XPS systems then I wouldn't worry, both our machines arrived within 24 hours of each other, so we're almost certainly...

I just downloaded the 'birthday drivers' from DNA and this is my Aquamark with 'mild overclocking' @ 400/350 - WoW Edit: Removed image, see my sig for the new Aquamark3 Bench!

Capslock, I switch between batteries and power. And I've only tried the Doom3 Demo so far. I've been busy installing my development environment, other apps and data. I'll probably install Thief 3 and Neverwinter Nights and give...
