Wish me luck. :)

Been having some weird system lag issues especially with rendering games in windowed mode. Been unable to run firefox without it hanging up and lagging. Everything was fine for a few weeks after I got this thing running so I must have installed something unsavory at some point.

I hope you backed up the WoW patches.

Otherwise you're gonna be in for a fun day of downloading crap.

Actually, I install games to a different drive so I'm safe there.

Good luck with that. I never save patches knowing I'll be spending a day downloading all the patches. I usually do it on days when I can't play the game anyway.

So far so good, windows actually updated a lot faster than usual for some reason and I didn't have my usual issues getting my network running again. just have to dig up some fresh sound drivers and I should be good to go.
