| | After much soul searching I finally pulled my finger out a ordered the components for a new PC. In my profession it helps to know your way around Windows, Office and their quirks so in light of the fact that my current gaming rig has had its day this is what I went for:- ASUSTeK P5N32-E SLI PLUS nForce 680i SLI mobo
- Intel PentiumD 935 3.0GHz LGA775
- 4GB 667MHz DDR2 RAM
- 4x Western Digital Caviar RAID Edition Hard Disk Drive 250Gb (To be run in RAID 0+1)
- 2x Asustek VGA EN7900GS TOP/2DHT/256M PCIe GF7900GS (SLI)
- Antec TruePower Trio 650W ATX PSU SLI Compatible
- Antec Nine Hundred/Ultimate Gamer Case
- Logitech G5 Laser Mouse
- Logitech G15 Keyboard
- Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate
- Microsoft Office 2007 Standard
Hopefully Oblivion will run a little better!

| | | Finally got Oblivion working under Vista! Had to disable ingame music to get it working, but boy does it look different to my XP machine! I would compare it to a stick man drawing and a Toy Story scene. There must be something wrong with the way my soundcard treats certain audio files as my DirectSong add-ons for Guild Wars don't work either. The joys (or not!) of a new OS...

No doubt its related to there being no DirectSound support in Vista!!
