Okay I have a Compaq Presario SR1303WM-B I brought it in 2004. I love to play the Sims2 games so recently I added 1 gig of ram, this has really helped my game loads in a few seconds, but the video card is not up to it, should I buy a new video card(if so what kind) and power supply or should I just get a new computer? I have PCI and Agp slots, someone told me Compaq can't be upgrader I really don't know.

I'm thinking of building my own desktop PC, as buying bits is cheaper heres what I got so far:
Intel Celeron D352 CPU 3.2 GHz
Maxtor 160 GB HDD
Samsung 1GB RAM
NEC 18x DVD/RW
Asrock motherboard

This is my first time and im just trying to find compatible things which so far all the above are but I was wondering because the Motherboard comes with a Intel 865G graphics chipset, could I replace it with a Nvidia GeForce 7300 GT 512MB?
Also its a Micro ATX and I don't have a clue what case I would get.
I want to buy all from microdirect.co.uk to make it easy and would like you help. Also what kinda memory is the in-built graphics card?

Okay i have a Dell Dimension E521 which runs Windows Vista. Its pretty much new, we've had it for 2 months. After a while of being on the computer it stops letting me right click on things like so i cant save images, or copy, or paste. It wont even let me right click on the desktop screen. I also have it to where the tabs are at the top and when i open a new tab by right clicking it wont load, itll just say connecting, but still nothing happens. I have to restart my computer each time this happens and it interrupts whatever im doing on the computer. I dont know if its the internet (i have Charter Cable) because it did this on my last computer too (windows XP;dialup) I also know its NOT the mouse, ive went through a couple already. I was thinking that it could be a virus, but if it is its not detected by my Antivirus Software (Norton 360) Can somebody explain to me why this happens and what I can do about it?

I read this at crucial.com but I can't really understand what this means. The wording is very tricky. Here it is: "" Each memory slot can hold SDRAM, PC133 with a maximum of 128MB per slot.*

*Not to exceed manufacturer supported memory.""

Does this mean that I can't exceed 128MB of memory or I can't exceed 288MB of RAM? Help?

I have tried every program in my Norton Systemworks. I found no spyware or virus'. I ran Superantispyware and found nothing. I ran Ad-Aware SE personal and again found nothing.I drfraged. I even tried Norton Go-Back.
Symptoms: when I turn on my computer it is extremely slow in loading Windows XP. It is extremely slow in downloading my desktop, and slow in moving around the internet and my programs.
My mouse is jumpy instead of smooth when moving around. My screen saver, Windows moving triangles is moves jerky and not smooth. After awhile my screen saver will feeze up and disappear. My screen goes blake and i can't get anything to come up and have to reboot my computer my manually turn it off and then back on.
Oh yea, when I intially get on the computer my Norton shows it is refeshing and this takes quite awhile to complete.
This is all a very recent problem. I am at my wits end. Would appreciate any help I can get.
Thank you, Fred

Well my computer seems to run fine when I open big programs like photoshop and wmp together but for some reason when I play a mmorpg like Ragnarok Online it overheats within 30 minutes usually 15. I've checked the fans and checked if there was dust inside of my computer but I cleaned it months ago because the dust was causing it to overheat last time and it was working fine until about last month when this overheating problem started up again. My friend and I guessed that I needed a new computer fan. So is that right?

I am interested in building a computer to play games on. I am looking pretty much for something that can run games like World of Warcraft. I am not too worried about price, as long as it doesn't go astronomical.

I would like a list of parts that I should look into getting and how exactly they are used and go together. I can do the basic putting together, meaning I can add ram, video cards, etc.

Anyway, what should I buy, what does it do, how does it go together.
