Why not just clone your hard drives right after a fresh install?
I haven't tried it yet, but it sounds like thats the way to go if it works alright.

Well, my new laptop just arrived today, nothing like finally getting started on homework i should have been tinkering with all semester.
I ordered it to business specs (I am a business major) Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, office 07 small business edition. IIRC, it has 2gs of memory. Intel Core 2 Duo processor.
I bought it through Toshiba, reason being, I have witnessed and heard that Toshibas are tougher than their competition, so i fugured with all the road vibration this will possibly endure, might as well get a tough laptop.
So, I will be starting it for the first time on Monday, as i want the full awe inspiring experience of a new computer on high speed internet, not dialup here at home. So i will see how that goes. Right now i am talking to you on parents' Dell desktop running XP, which i am gonna let install SP# tonight, 7+ hours on dialup, woo hoo.
I speced out for my sister a Toshiba laptop running Vista, and frankly, she has been pleased with it. It has Vista Home Premium 64 bit.
According to all the Computer techies I talked to leading up to each purchase, the thing that really matters most is the processor. they all said don't skimp on the processor. They also said that the 64 bit versions seem to behave better than the 32 bit versions.

I would stay with XP SP3, and as far as video flickering is your video card PCIe? Your ISP might be partly to blame on the flickering, doubtfull but possible as some bytes are being lost. you might also want to find out what vid code is running the auction sites. Looking at something live depends on the other side sites....how much bandwith they have to broadcast.....
