If I want one game on the SSD, but the rest on my HDD I just create a symbolic link for the game so that the computer thinks it's on the HDD but it's actually on the SSD. I can't remember where I found the program for it though.
Do you remember the name?
If it's broken, fix it.
If it isn't broken, I'll soon fix that.

I have a MacBook Pro Late 2011 15" with mountain lion, with bootcamp'd windows 7. But i like OS X way more than windows. I just use windows to play games that aren't available for the mac like Battlefield 3 or COD MW3, the rest is on mac. :D

I recently added another Zotac 550 Ti to my computer, and linked the two via NVidia SLI cables. Now getting almost 60 FPS on the highest graphics settings (including anti-aliasing) on Skyrim. I also had to upgrade my PSU to support the second video card though.

Recently got a new motherboard, ram and cpu! 4 gigs ram and 2.7 x2 processor. Still not very good, but better then before.

Getting better, how is the processing? I have been thinking of custom making a PC and using a 2.9 2x if it's not I'm just going to look into one or two i5's.

Haha, my 'computer rig' is entirely composed of a little Dell Laptop I picked up around 2 years ago. I can run basic games perfectly fine and have even been able to crunch through Adobe Flash exporting, 3ds Max rendering and Adobe After Effects render- arguably quickly all things considered..
