whoa, epic de-rail.

First off – Other Windows version do not work because my Dvd-burner is crap. When I finally mastered the brasero burner, I was out of DVDs. I switched from vista to windows 7 because I upgraded everything in my computer to a i5 2500k, GTX 460 with 8gb RAM (and 1TB HDD). I had pirated copies of XP and W7 but my friend failed to burn them properly as all the DVDs I got were corrupted. When I was learning how to use Linux own burner called “brasero” I failed too and got defect windows OS. Now that I discovered my noobish mistakes, I am out of DVDs.

I am going to get a proper burned windows 7 and windows 8 “alfa” next week from a friend that is “pro” about doing this anyways. Just to be sure.

Second off – What is the big deal that I run TF2 now in Linux? It works OK now (except for the pointer flashing in the middle of the screen and player models suddently flashing in white) r_maxdlights “1” didnt work…

third off – (Off topic) I have learned how to use the terminal and many other linux features. I have discovered that Ubuntu 11.10 is vastly superior to Windows 7 in every way except gaming. I am definetly keeping Ubuntu 11.10 but I will make a partition so I can have a windows OS on it. Just to play games.

Think I am wrong? Go ahead and laugh. I AM the one laughing at your ignorance.

My build fails to detect USB devices with windows OS in it. Ubuntu booted perfectly. Got it running within 10 min!

And yeah, btw. I boot in 13s, beat that.

I fail to understand installing an alfa version (unless we’re talking using virtualization software like VMWare or VBox just to test the new win out). Why would you do such a thing?

Minds are like parachutes – the best ones are the ones who open.

I haven’t read the topic but I thought I would post to show my support and say that I like this line.

That is what I meant as well, and that isn’t what I asked, so I have no idea as to why you felt the need to type that in.

It is meant for devs who wish to briefly check out the new VS / the new Expression Blend package and start building apps for metro platform.

Installing a test version meant for developers as your gaming OS does not equal being open-minded.

… I haven’t made myself clear enough… I think we are talking about 2 different things so it is best we leave it just here.

Anyways, I have fixed the mayor problems now, I get 300+fps, the cursor isnt flashing anymore, fixed fps drops, etc. I have still the small problem of players models flashing in white when approaching a light.

Thanks for your support everyone, good to know that you have a site full of open-minded people, ready to help anyone when help is needed.
