One of my 1gig sims died in my machine. I tried to get ddr 3200 400mhz sims but the store does not sell these. They only have faster chips. If I get 2 faster chips - 667mhz, does anyone know if this could be used in the fx7? Cheers, Sean.

Anyone Tried to upgrade their FX7 to Vista 32 bit yet? Any issues, problems etc? Cheers, Sean.

bjiceman, I had not looked into the Dell feedback from customers yet so you make a good point there. As for Hypersonic tackling the claims and issues made on this forum. My opinion is that it's hard to tell. I started to write a long...

hmmm, I have to say, I'm very nervous. I've a fx-7 with an fx-60 on order. And with all the bad reviews thus far plus this: http://www.notebookreview.com/defaul...Dell+XPS+M1710 I can't help feeling like I have just thrown away...

Thanks very much for post ALL the details re your new machine plus the issues you have been having. I have the same model ordered (ok, but with some bling and missing 1 hd and the audio) with almost the same specs. I guess I'll be...
