The devcon utility can be used to disable and re-enable devices. Having said that, it is highly highly unusual for such an action to be necessary for a GPU. Before recommending devcon, I'd recommend: Ensure you're running the newest official, stable driver. If the problem occurs in connection with MediaPortal, throw some log files...

if your System RAM + Video RAM > 4GB then definitely go for 64bit. Otherwise it's user choice, I'd still go with 64bit.

Due to the lack of multimedia support, and the ability to install them if you wanted, would not advise anyone to buy the "basic" version of windows, don't care how cheap it is compared to the working multimedia versions, it will cost you your hair\patience trying to get things to work. Regards

Hmm, not sure why ntfs does that. There are some paid or trial defragging software that will move files to the beginning or the end of the drive according to the options you specify. I would defrag the drive using an offline defrag, meaning booting from the cd-rom drive or a usb drive and then defragging the hard drive. Just my two cents.

off-topic, but I really hate CCC. From CCC 11.11+ onwards, my setting for overscan does not stick after a standby (let alone a reboot). So, I have been staying with 11.11.

How much memory does ESXI use before installing a VM, same with CPU I guess.

Hi there, Off the top of my head, the only two ways way I can think of are: Is to ensure the OS/BIOS is configured to wake on any packet to the network card. If you got into the Network card properties, it may be configured to Wake on LAN (WOL), but there may be an option to wake on any packet? (The only downside, depending on your...
