A couple of weeks ago there was a power surge while I was re-installing vista and I didn't do the smart thing and un-plug my pc.After one surge I turned the pc back on and resumed re-installing the os,then 10 minutes later there was another surge and this time when I tried to turn on the pc,nothing happened.Dead MB...so I was wondering if any or all components attached to the MB are also fried or if they can be used in my new system I am building.Thanks..and I have learned my lesson about power surges...

Hello everyone and thanks for checking out my question. I have had a few different tubes of thermal compound sitting on my shelf for about 4 or 5 years now since I last used it. Soon it's going to be time for a new build so I was wondering if I should use this old compound or buy a new tube. And do you think it is as effective as a new tube would be? I'd hate to buy a whole new tube of stuff for just one cpu but I'd hate to burn up a cpu even more! Thanks in advance for any info!

I want to install it on my own. I know the HDD itself is quite inexpensive, but I am afraid that the people who fix it for me might charge a bomb.

I want to change my 40 GB HDD to 80 GB HDD. Most probably I'll get Maxtor/ Seagate or Western Digital.

I'm building a computer for my aunt right now and she has all the parts seperate and we bought the case. We've put all the components in but when we turn it on, the computer suddenly turns off. Sometimes it turns off right at the second we turn it on and sometimes it loads up all the way to 'no boot device' (since we have to Windows installed on it yet) screen. But it just randomly turns off. Sometimes we even see the error 'CPU temprature error'. But the fan looks to be working perfectly fine. Also, the power supply that we put in is a 20 pin one while the mother board takes a 24 pin one.

Here are the specs:

Pentium D 3.20 Ghz
1024MB RAM
256MB GeForce 7300 GS
80GB IDE Hard Drive
380W Power supply

Motherboard: Asus p5pl2-E
Power supply: Green Power
