Spectacular new hardware for 2008

2008 is bringing us hardware that was promised and yet we never expected in our lifetime. PC Game controllers using EEG or simply a helmet that receives brain waves that interface into the game. New cameras that allow phones to take pictures inside. Flexible displays that become more like a page of a book. Intel has new Penryn chips that do not use silicon and are only 75% of the old chips and solve the heat issue of compact processors. Self healing materials that fill in scratches on your dropped laptop or cellphone.

New Windows Install Guide - Windows Vista

I have been repeatedly asked, "Where is a install guide for Vista?" The truth is I considered it very simple and not necessary... but, I bow to my audience and here you go: Click here for the new guide. This is a guide for Vista Ultimate but the other flavors are very much the same.

Welcoming you Back

Welcome to FreePCTech.com! Providing you free technical support since 1994!

Recently, we changed servers to enable us to better provide for you. But sadly our team over at our old host didn't take down the site properly.

Right now, we are in the midst of rebuilding the same FreePCTech you have known and loved to keep things going!

PCSOFT and PCBUILD are unaffected by this and will continue to operate while we get things up!

Newest version of MS Tweak UI now online!!

The latest version of TweakUI (1.33) can be found on the our download area. It is compatible with all versions of 32-bit Windows. Because it's now a multi-version tool, not all features will be supported on all versions of Windows. Microsoft's policy on supporting TweakUI hasn't changed: there's no support. Use it at your own risk. If you need help getting started, as on PCSOFT mailing list.
