It's kinda awkward to say this, but I usually used jack sparrow edition cuz my family has been poor for a long time... tho funny enough it still continued for many years even after we moved countries 😆

Now I own my own Windows tho! Yay

Need fast suggestions. I'm on the installing part of windows. Specifically in the drives/partition section.
Is it a bad idea to make 2 drives? I'm pretty used to have c and d drive.

If you've only got one physical drive in there then keep it that way, and get yourself a second drive

Yeah I'd put drive in there once you've got some spare cash, or do you have a spare one you can transfer over from another machine, the other alernative is get an external hard drive

OK I ain't gonna lie, it's 6th game I have downloaded and all of them auto picked ultra. Pretty damn satisfying. Fan Noise is annoying tho as it pops up randomly whenever.
