I've read somewhere that Vist Readyboost only use up to 1GB and beyond that any spare is useless. Can anyone advise if this is so? For this purpose is it better to buy SD card or flash drive?

My old XP pc died with a case of capacitor plague. I replaced it with a Vista pc. I thought that I would have no problem moving my data because on my other setup, I had kept all of my 'stuff' on a separate HDD (partitioned into 4 parts). Once I had gotten my Vista up & running, I felt ready to move-in my data drive from the xp machine. When I cracked open the case, I found that it was a...

This comp was manufactured 8 days ago and I got it to master my Album... It would be stupid if it didn't have a wave playable sound card right? Is this just a 2002 compatibility issue? Do I just need a new program?
