Hi guys,

This is doing my head in...

I have spent HOURS searching for a suitable, entry-level DAW (Digital Audio Workstation), and I am still looking. I have gone back and found a few PC User reviews, and while there are a few as being described as easy-to-use for beginners, they only seem to be easy if you already have a lot of live music experience.

Just read the March issue reviews of Ultrabooks, especially Macbook Airs 11" and 13", and was surprised there was no battery score.
Apple claims 5hrs web browsing for the 11", which would put it at the top of that bunch reviewed and perhaps improved the 70% rating.

Q: Star Wars Pod Racer white screen

Hi it's me again, I seem to ask a lot of questions....

Anyway,

I FINALLY found a Pod Racer download (full) but the same problem arose: when in the cantina and before and during a race it has a white screen in front of everything! I tried downloading the SWEP1RCR.exe but that did nothing and as for the .dll fix i could not find it. I pondered if it was a Windows 7 64 bit problem but I remember that my old (and recently deceased) PC was running XP SP3 and it had the same problem.

Has anyone a clue???

Thanks in advance!

Q: Help with SSD storage

Hello guys, i wanted to know (again) if a 60GB SSD is enough for the following (i really need someone to clarify this for me:

i. I will only be installing Windows 7 Home Premium which i think is only around 20GB, more or less
ii. essential apps e.g. java, Microsoft Office, dvd burner software, antivirus, you get the idea. I am pretty sure that will all be a maximum of 5-7GB.
iii. Combat Arms, which is a game, and roughly takes up around 4GB
