    **** Official Fallout 4 Thread ****

    So I just discovered a heated conversation going on just to the West of Museum of Freedom in Concord. There's a guy (Fred) shouting at a 'synth' called Jules (I think), and a woman in the background called Angela. I have options to try and talk Fred down from killing Jules but I always fail...

    *** Official Fallout 4 - No Spoilers Allowed ***

    I'll be honest, I still don't get it! .....will have a play around tonight and try and figure it out. Tbh, it's a bit p00 that there are no in-game tutorials

    *** Official Fallout 4 - No Spoilers Allowed ***

    Oh f*!k, I thought it was weird that I couldn't pick a perk!.....is that a bad thing though? I just haven't seen the perks screen....only the top row of stats is highlighted for me to add to.

    I've just thought of another question, sorry :embarrassed: Each time I level up I get to put one point in to a SPECIAL stat. I'm only level 8, but I still haven't see how those stats translate to Perks?? I have 8 points in STR as my highest stat so far.

    nVidia drivers - WHQL release schedule?

    We haven't had a WHQL driver release from nVidia since October last year! Aren't they supposed to release every quarter/3 months?

    OK thanks all. I reckon I'll stick with points for now, no need for Live.

    Xbox Live membership and points - info sought

    I'm new to Xbox, and have just bought the Xbox360 Slim 250GB for me and my family. What is Live membership? What are MS points for? Do I need both? Does each member of my family need a membership each? I assume that if they're young like my 2 kids are then Live membership would be...

    WEI lower after fresh install of Win7 x64 on SSD drive!

    Hmmm, I've now just run CrystalDiskMark and have got scores identical to when my previous installation was giving me 7.9 on WEI for primary disk! How totally bizarre :confused: Why on earth is WEI giving such a low mark??

    WEI lower after fresh install of Win7 x64 on SSD drive!

    Thanks for quick replies so far :) Dev Mgr shows a standard MS driver for the drive itself, and an Intel driver for "Intel 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family 6 Port SATA AHCI Controller" version number 9.2.0.1011, i.e. the latest.

    WEI lower after fresh install of Win7 x64 on SSD drive!

    My Windows Experience Index has dropped 2 full points (from 7.9 to 5.9) for my primary hard disk since reinstalling Win7 x64. My drive is a Crucial C300 64GB SSD and I blatted it with HDDErase as per lots of suggestions elsewhere online. I'm confused, as nothing else on my system has changed...

    Recommend me....

    That's SATAII, is it as fast or faster than SATAIII drives then?
  20. machinist

    Recommend me....

    ....a non-SSD SATAIII drive to complement my SSD boot drive. To be used for storage/games etc. Preferably a 1TB 3.5" drive please.
