I posted this in quick summary, but though I'd post here too in case someone wanted to reply.

Get the raid5/raid10 bios hack here
Vista Ultimate (and maybe one other version) lets you downgrade to XP.
32bit Vista or XP will only address about 3.3GB of RAM. BIOS supports up to 8. I was able to install Vista x64 using the same cdkey and was able to activate successfully over the phone. No real problems running Vista yet, and Vista x64 is much better then XP x64.
I was not able to OC with my chip. It worked, but didn't run stable.

FBushpigs said:Sure. You can cash in reward points(accumulated by card usage) for a Dell coupon, if you have an American Express Gold or Blue card.

do you get the coupon code instantly when you redeem or is it sent by snail mail?

Click the "Cash Back & Coupons" link at the top of the screen. Or here's a direct link: http://www.fatwallet.com/cash-back-coupons/Dell-Home-Systems

When I click on the link or even go to Cash Back & Coupon click on the link inside, I always get "Internet Explorer cannot display the page" error on the popup window. This is not for Dell only, it's for every CashBack link. I used to be able to use the link. Does anyone know what could be the problem? I'm using IE7 by the way.

You can order an AMEX e-certificate version delivered via email. I ordered mine this morning and got it within 1 hour.

EDIT - If you use this certificate then the free shipping/handling option goes away so you will be charged the 29.99 but you do get to save another ($220.00, if you order the 250.00 off certificate) anway.

just wondering, this sounds bad but i'm hearing of 4%DPA. what's DPA?

didnt see the posts up further...nm...

Another newbie question about the FatCash... When I click on the link, I see lots of Dell coupon links that then take me to the ordering site. If I do it correctly, is there an instant discount that I should see off my total price? Or does the FatCash come to me later as a rebate check? I'm not seeing clarification on how I can see that I actually got the 3% off.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!

Can you explain how and where to order such a certificate?

thanks!
