I think human eyes can only pick up something like 28-30fps. The reason higher fps is better is mainly for online gaming - at the end of each frame networking can be handled, the higher the fps the more often you can send data to the server. If your bullets register before someone elses its all good:)
Wow, this sounds suspiciously like the post above from dalesc. And wow, you're user id # are only four apart. And wow the posts are only a minute apart.
I thought it was your Dad that had 400 instances of viruses, now its your brother!?!? I'm so confused.

Nice work Miss Marple but thats an epic fail if ever I've seen one:)
...with all the comments about not using Windows. I know the original question was how to setup Windows but why pay to give yourself lots of extra work? If the person does not know much about computers there will be no learning curve from Windows to Linux, no need to make sure firewalls/AV are updated, even if you do use AV for Linux it can be updated silently and emails sent to the grand kid admin:)
My brother used windows for years and eventually after he phoned complaining about lots of pop up pr0n (Which he didnt mind at first....sigh) and finding over 400 occurrences of various virii I installed Ubuntu. There was the initial "Where's this/where's that" but once he got familiar with the main menu he was sorted. Now I hardly ever hear from him...
It's not that difficult to have a quick release tripod mount on the bottom of your camera. It can stay on while you're in the vehicle and holding the camera and be attached to the tripod in seconds once you're outside and taping.
It would make things much more easy on the eyes not to mention you can pick out more details with a stable shot than one moving about.
Yes, it is a bit more cumbersome to haul out the tripod, pop the legs open, mount the camera and start filming, but it would make things more enjoyable to watch.
If it's a bit blowy would the camera not still shake? I imagine even putting all your body weight on it to stop it blowing away would still cause it to shake.
And since then, they've also learned how to make anti-spyware apps that distinguish between real spyware and cookies that just track what websites you go to for advertising purposes.
Aaaah I didnt realise I was jumping forward in time before running anti-apyware after browsing with FF:)
Waaaay back when I used I.E all anti-spyware apps used to find a ton of spyware. Since switching to Firefox (0.6 I think it was at the time) I hardly ever have to run any anti-spyware, when I do the list is very short and is always just minor issues. Just switching to a decent browser that is separate from the OS instead of being buried so deep in the OS makes a huge difference - and makes a lot of sense to me:) Remember that SSL security issue in I.E and the fix was in the Windows kernel, niiiiice, real nice, me no touchy IE anymore.
Lets face it - there's no shortage of "other" browsers to choose from these days.
What about one of Andre LaMothes console kits? They are more oriented to making your own gaming console but get right into electronic basics, you have to build the XGS yourself so you get practical experience and comes with a book (I think its called Black Art of console design).

Eeeem did you read my original comment or have you replied to the wrong one?

Admittedly I dont use Windows very much these days - is it possible to uninstall I.E completely now?

But not all browsers are welded to the kernel.
