Does anyone suffer this problem when changing versions or is it just me? I cant for the life of me figure out why it seems to require more work everytime I go to install it. I'm almost at the point where i dread installing a new version. And yes, I erase my profile everytime now.

Hwoever, waht i cant explain is the processor. it gets hot as hell. hotter than ever. It didnt use to be like this. Is this because of the HD?

(sorry if repost, didn't see this)
Two things struck me: This whole "Burnout reinvented" thing, I'm not sure I like the sound of that. Burnout have been one of the rare series to have successfully created sequels, almost sounds too good to be true. This time, it might be different, but please God I hope I'm wrong *crosses fingers*
Secondly, sounds to me that this isn't quite Burnout 4 - EA might be trying to slow down the franchise, before the next gen consoles are released.
Can't even begin to imagine a Burnout title on Xbox360 ...... Here's hoping that real cars will make it in.

I'm a programming newb, so excuse my terminology :D
I've decided that I need to learn to program in something since I feel like my hands are tied. The last language I learned was GWBasic. I do web design in Dreamweaver wysiwyg... I'd like to learn something that I can use in multiple areas... I was thinking VB. What are your recommendations? I'd like to eventually be able to write apps that utilize a sql back-end... and would like both stand-alone apps and web-apps. I'm just not sure if I can use VB on the web or if i'd have to learn php or something for sql interaction on the web...
I work exclusively in win32... I just find myself tied down when I want to accomplish something, but have to settle for something pre-made that doesn't meet my needs...
