I have an AMD Socket 754 Motherboard in my PC (Foxconn), with the SiS 755 NorthBridge in it.

I have (for the first time) checked the Temperatures on Both my North and South Bridges, and they seem to be running Hotter than my CPU!!

My NorthBridge SiS 755 runs around 124F (or higher), and my SouthBridge SiS 964 runs around 109F. My CPU runs between 90F to 100F, and about 8F Warmer at the Core.

I am Currently Liquid-Cooling my CPU, and Raptor Hard Drive.
Are these Temperatures Normal for the North & South Bridges??

I have also Installed SpeedFan, and have found the Same Temps in there (just a couple Degrees off).
And what is the ACPI?!?

I'm currently writing a book, and since I'm constantly on the go, I need a laptop so I can write wherever I am. I need a laptop that is easily portable, has good software for what I need, and is compatible with Microsoft Office Word Documents.

When I was using the 'disc' icon to save an entry a message appeared telling me there was no more disc space.I minimised the spreadsheet and later closed it from the bottom toolbar.Instead of asking me if I wanted to save the changes I had made it just closed the file and disappeared.I tried a system restore to a previous checkpoint but all was still the same.Any ideas???

I want to make sure my SKYPE (and skypein number) does not show up on the caller ID of people I call via SKYPE. SKYPE help says to go sign in to your SKYPE account, go to Caller identification section, and change the 'setup' function to 'off.' Trouble is I can't FIND any 'caller identification section.' Anybody help?

I have a program called Carbonite Backup. When my computer is fully booted up, the icon for it is in my system tray, which I am fine with. However, on startup it automatically installs the shortcut to it on my desktop, which I find very annoying. I delete it, but it is right back on the desktop each time I start the computer.

I am trying to hook a wireless router into an existing wired router. So far, I am able to get all computers on the network to identify one-another, but can't connect to the internet. Also, I can't connect to the IP address of the wireless router (default should be 192.168.1.1). Any advice?

I mean those messages that say "if you don't send this to this amount of people in such amount of time, you will have bad luck."

And don't say those are sent just for fun. Somehow people believe those stuffs. Why? if they are all untrue.

If I purchase a server that has gigabit nics installed and a gigabit switch on the network, if the server is transferring files to computers that have 10/100mbps, does that downgrade the entire network to 10/100? Or if 10 computers were trying to access the server at once, would they each get a 100mbps share of the 1000mbps that the server can put out?

It only happens at certain places though. When I am at a certain friends' house it does it. It also does it when I visit my parents. But all the other times it says its connected.
