    Hey guys, just got my new machine and it's awesome. Tried to run 3D 06 but when it tries to load the screen will turn white then the pop up comes and says it is not responding then I have to close it. I'm running Vista 32 with E-Wreckeds vid drivers. I'd like to see what my machine will do so any help with 06 would be nice. Oh yeah, I've unistalled and reinstalled it

    Got the dual 3870 with the X9100. Might sell the X9100 to get the QX. I had the X9100 from ebay for my FX7811 and when I sold it I kept the cpu and when I ordered this one, I got the lowest cpu then slapped this one in.
