Amazing Product

Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows
Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows

Pros: Works Well, No Problems Whatsoever. Emulations work well.If you need to test your controller to see if it connect go to the control panel and select the controllers.

Cons: The only problem i have noticed is that i live in the dorm, sometimes my xbox 360's controller's initially connects to my neighbors xbox 360 rather than the receiver. Not really much of an problem tho, just press the button on top of the device and it works flawlessly.

Pros: Great Ram, I am a Tech Support Consultant and Crucial Is Reliable! I Have Used It In Many Computers, Problem Free, Memtest86 Passed 100% Have Not Had A Problem Yet! If You Are Unsure Of What Ram Your Computer Needs, Try Crucial's Website, They Have A Free Quick Program (Scan My Computer), And It Tells You What You Have, And What You Can Upgrade Speed, And Max Size, It's Always Good To Be Safe And Open Up Your Computer To Double Check Your Current Speed of Your Own Ram Currently Installed In Your Computer. Programs Are Only As Reliable As The Programmer Who Designed Them!

Cons: The Install On My Dell Inspiron Was A Bit Tough Considering You Have To Remove The Keyboard Inorder To Get To The Second Stick! It's Not The Ram's Fault Though. Honestly Ram Could Be Free, Because That Would Be Seriously Awesome! I Wish I Had A Rebate On This Ram, It's Ok Though It Served Me Well! Vista Needs 4 Gigs, Install 2 of Exact Sticks For Dual Channel, And You Will Notice The Difference, If you Dont Get 4 Gig, Your System Page Files(Virtual Memory) And Takes Longer To Boot Up, And Feels Sluggish!

Overall Review: My Dell Is Inspiron 1520, Graphics Is Nvidia 8600 GTM, I Bought 2 Crucial 2 GB Sticks, Installed Them In Pairs, Greatest Thing That Boosts Your Performance Is The Ram Because It Increases Your System Shared Memory(Aperture Size)! Allows For Graphics/System Stability Especially If Your Running Windows Vista. Newer Computers Automatic adjust the Aperture Size Upon Increased The Ram. Older Motherboard's You Can Adjust This In The Bios During Bootup. Currently I have 1535Mb Of System Shared Memory And 1791MB Total Available Graphics Memory(You Can See Your Specs In Your Display Settings/Adapter), The Difference In The Two Is The Hardware Dedicated Memory On The Card. I Came To Buy This Ram After My Computer Crashed Runing Need For Speed Top/Highest Resolution And Effects Possible. Solved The Problem So Did It Solve The Problem On Other Computers I Worked On. I Currently Run Windows Vista 32 Bit Home Premium On A Intel Core 2 Duo, 4mb Cache 2.0 Ghz! Bottom Line, Worth Every Penny!

Bang For The Buck

Pros: Two Years Ago I Got This For $$$, Worth The Money If I Look Back At It. Drops Slowly In Price.

Cons: Windows Vista 64x Crashes, Driver Errors Are The Cause, Noticed The Problem In DreamScene.

Overall Review: Use This As My Home Movie Center, Hook It Up To The TV Using S-Video Or Converter. Runs At Default 29 or 30 Hertz.
