LOL Truely understand now. I'm sorry to hear that. Both of my parents have died long ago, and were of the generation at the time, when computers just were not around. In fact, i could have gotten some degree in this field and taken this up back in 1973 or thereafter, but choose instead to stay in another field,just when the economy was going south. Never ever obtained much from that two year degree. OH well..
Todays world is so much different as are alot of parents. Alot of them just think your messing around or not doing anything constructive with yur time. Therefore, they become either somewhat jealous or possibly do what your dad does, which is not fair, so i totally understand you on that one. Also, it sounds like he might not be doing so good in his own life,somehow, don't know but.. That would account for him being kind of possessive of your things...
I loved my parents, but it awas my dad that i never seemed to gt along with also. Only towards the ladder days of his life did I trully understand all of why he was this or that, and and only then did I develope proper respect. Feel Lucky! My dad ws always away, was like Harry Truman ( before your time.... US president before Eisenhouser ) Very WW2 type and proud of it...
Hang in there and don't do anyting rash. Pretty soon you'll be old enough to just go your own way and keep whats yours as yours.
To this day., the way MS has this whole admin. thing configured, and all of its descriptions, I think its still very confusing to me. Its intent was to let each of us having our own account or personal belongings, where others could not mess with them. It works, but obviously as in your case there are still ways around it, that cause much stress , confusion or ways around it all.
pistol, what settings are you using to get 3.6ghz and what cooler are you using? Im using a Tt V1 cooler and i can only get 3.3ghz anything higher and it gets for the lack of a better work "Laggy" with everything.

I'm using the Vigor Gaming Monsoon II TEC for my CPU cooling. My E6600 runs at 3.6Ghz @ 1.49V, but I'm not sure if it's 24/7 stable at those settings. It's stable enough to plow through all the 3dmarks though.
Also, I either have my case panel off, or I'm running with all 4 case fans @ max speed so I can get highest air flow. It really does make a difference.

Vigor Gaming Monsoon II TEC, Hence why you can overclock more than me, you have a little more oomph in your cooling that helps you.

yea. It's pretty good. I don't think it's worth the $150 I paid for it though. There is no connector for the unit to the motherboard, so unfortunately, the system is completely controlled by an external unit, which bases the fan speed on temperature on the processor. I wish it interfaced with the motherboard somehow. That would make life sooooo much simpler.

nightwing, there is another place for you to post your 3dmark06 score. There should be a thread right by this one that you can do that in.
