Very recently Benchmark Reviews published the Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade and Installation guide, which helps erase the mistakes made by Windows Vista and introduces computer enthusiasts to the newly introduced O/S. Microsoft has enjoyed a successful launch for their Windows 7 Operating System, also referred to at Win7 or W7, and PCs have been made more productive and secure as a result. But like all good things that we receive, it's in our nature to protect and keep them. The best way to accomplish this is with a solid backup, and luckily Windows 7 offers a built-in Backup and Restore tool for creating System Images. By creating a backup file users can preserve their data, but with a System Image recovering the source disk can be helpful when replacing the drive with another. In this article, Benchmark Reviews guides users on the best practices for protecting and Recovering Windows 7 with System Image Restore Disks.

It's safe to say that this month we're not expecting a whole lot from the latest driver release for the simple reason being we saw such huge gains from the last two months that it just doesn't makes sense that a whole lot was going to happen this time around.

Has MSN Live Messenger started crashing upon load up all of sudden for you? Since the last week of July 2010, Live Messenger hasn't worked on several PCs we use at PCSTATS, regardless of Windows XP or Windows Vista operating systems. Uninstalling and reinstalling Windows Live Messenger won't fix the crash issue, what you need to do is edit one registry setting. Here's what you need to change....

Storage standards and bandwidth aside, it's understandable why SSDs were developed on a drive profile first: notebook and desktop hard disk drive upgrades offered a tremendous user-base. Unfortunately, SSDs were introduced with premium prices that rendered many consumers numb with sticker shock. As the technology became more prevalent, prices have also become more affordable and power-users have embraced the performance SSDs are known to offer. Now the market is ready for the next step: high-performance PCI-Express SSDs built for hardware enthusiasts. Enter the OCZ RevoDrive PCI-E SSD. In this article, Benchmark Reviews tests the 120GB OCZ RevoDrive SSD (model OCZSSDPX-1RVD0120) against the fastest storage solutions on the market.

In the realm of benchmarking one name stands out as THE company to go to for your benchmark. That company is Futuremark. Since the first release of their 3DMark test they have been the ones to turn to when it comes to benchmarking not only your GPU, but in many cases your entire system.

For many of us, engaging our readers is what we ultimately want to do, and how readers interact with our site is what we want to know. If you are a user of WordPress and you actively use the Wordpress.com Stats plugin, you already have all the tools you need to display your most popular posts (by page views) for your readers. Until recently, I have been using the WordPress.com Popular Posts plugin to accomplish this, but I already had everything I needed without using another plugin; and the fewer plugins, the better!

I knew this driver was going to come, but I have to admit I was a little worried that for the first time in a few years AMD might just miss it. Of course they didn't, and today we're looking at the latest version of the Catalyst drivers - the 11.3s.

Der Catalyst 11.8 „Preview“ konnte uns vor einigen Wochen mehr als nur überzeugen. Nun ist die finale Version mit WHQL-Zertifikat verfügbar und die Überraschung war groß. Wir testen den Treiber an einer Radeon HD 6970. Dabei achten wir nicht nur auf die Performance sondern versuchen darüber hinaus, Inkompatibilitäten und Probleme herauszufinden.

If we look back to the 11.12 release that made its way to us just before December came to an end, it was one we said to skip, instead we suggested that you skipped the official WHQL driver and jumped onto the 12.1 preview that was released at the same time.
This release sees a similar kind of setup when it comes to the release schedule. Outside of the new WHQL 12.1 driver we're going to be looking at today, AMD have also released a Catalyst 12.2 preview driver.
