    Help with a really cheap computer

    Can you explain how it would be a downgrade? I'm not sure what earthwatts are but its an antec powersupply at 380W that's all I know. I am also likely to buy another hard drive later on so that would be 3, would my current power supply still be able to power them up? IF the apevia is...

    Help with a really cheap computer

    You know I'm not sure about that. My newest 500GB hard drive is SATA...the other one (200gB) may or may not be, but worst case scenario is I'll transfer everything to the 500gb. Not sure about the cd/dvd reader..I'll ask my friend but those things are relatively cheap, aren't they?

    Help with a really cheap computer

    My current computer is almost 6 years old and I wouldn't replace it other than the fact that it suddenly died this afternoon. Somehow it turned on and it works again. I believe the video card is toast and since it's so old (AGP!), I'd like to replace everything if the PC decided to not turn on...

    Can't get these RAM sticks to work =(

    Monitor refresh rate

    Hello, what is the optimum refresh rate on a monitor. Recently my mother tried to play freecell on my computer and said it was so blurry and grainy that she got a headache. After that, I tinkered with the refresh rate and couldn't really notice a difference with any of them at all. I set it...

    Inverted sound

    My sound is inverted and I don't know how to fix it. It's onboard sound, chaintech vnf250. I have the newest drivers I believe. Could be that I connected the cables to the mobo in an inverted way or is it due to something else? Thanks

    OK this is ridiculous

    Not really. They are in short supply and I doubt too many companies even make them, if any at all.

    Working with a partition?

    I made a 25gb partition for the OS. The desktop that I can see is the one on the C: partition, right? Where would I put stuff like video codes such as xvid and how do I make the default download and install directory E:? Is it possible to have the desktop be affiliated with the E: part of...

    Putting in an A64 CPU into the socket?

    For some reason, the directions that came with the CPU stated that you should put pin1 (triangle) closest to the end of the lever, while in reality on my mobo it should have been diagonally away from the lever.

    Putting in an A64 CPU into the socket?

    also, www.arcticsilver.com suggests that I put a drop and rotate my HS aroundon it...Could I just spread it myself with a credit card instead? Rubbing my hS sounds dangerous

    Putting in an A64 CPU into the socket?

    Is the little gold triangle supposed to be on the opposite end of the level? That seems to be the only way I can fit it in so that all 3 corners go into the socket...any other combo will only let 3 corners go into it? Need a quick answer please ;)

    My friend has $5,000 to kill on a laptop. Any recommendations?

    Well how about you get a laptop that meets her needs. What's the point of a video card or a top of a line cpu if she's just gonna listen to music? Donate the rest to charity. wtf is wrong with you people?

    New rig. AMD64 or P4

    If the midrange guide is still recommending the MSI board, don't buy it. You'll be better off with one of these: chaintech vnf-250, znf-250 epox 8kda3j soltek k8an2e-gr

    How do you guys like the 300gb Maxtor Maxline III?

    What will you be using the CPU for?

    To OC or Not OC...That is the Question.

    Overclocking is no longer a cheap, convenient way to get more juice out of your computer. It's becoming to be a very expensive hobby.

    Need some help!

    I believe that it's okay for the PCI slots to be working while the AGP slot is dead, so by putting in a PCI card...you're really not testing the AGP slot.

    Building computer that can't be used for games

    Exactly. I know this may sound weird but I think your friends are looking for a solution at the wrong place. How about they teach their kid to finish their homework before playing? This is just bad parenting. They should learn how to restrict their kids early. What are they going to do 5...

    Those that question 939 Upgradability

    Do you really think that you'll just be able to pop your dual core cpu into existing s939 mobos? Really? Ok, even if you can, by the time dual core cpus come out, better s939 mobos that are made to be used with the dual core procs will be out that offer much better performance than the...
