Squeezing the Sweet Bejesus Outta Me PC

[. . . .]

I just remembered how I got windows to play a media file at a preset time; by using that useless add on called Microsoft Plus. It has has a doohicky that expands the abilitie of the Task scheduler or sumsuch like that.

Depends on your hardware bud, but alot of systems yes windows complains but I always turn it off for bench marks and overclocking.
Reduce it to the lowest point where by you can get windows to stop complaining. That is if you have fast ram and on a 32bit OS 4Gb installed.
I have to say though that with a Duel or Quad core it is not even an issue.

Quad cores have to be cooled, I am about to start playing with a liquid cooling system for a friends PC that currently has enough fans to be its own hovercraft. Are they reliable? I always have the worry they may leak.
