I need your assistance!

My computer contains:

AMD Athlon (TM) XP 1600+
ASUS Main board A7N266-VM
NVIDIA GeForce2 Integrated GPU (onboard)
768 MT RAM 266 MHz


First I changed the power pack…, then I started the PC and there was NO internet! a friend of mine told me that it might be that my network card was deactivated or something like that. when i reinserted my old power pack the internet was still not working! I am currently on a friends computer.

please help me!

I know its an old computer… however before I changed the power pack my internet worked. the network card is onboard, when i connect the lan cable the small lamp on the back of the computer shines,. lan something is in bios setup activated…

so, what else can i do???

please help me!!

My specs are "intel(R) pentium(R) 4 cpu 2.40 GHz, 512 mb of ram", and I'm thinking about getting a "BFG GeForce 7300 GT 512MB DDR2 AGP Graphics Card". Here is a link http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8367279&st=graphics+card&lp=7&type=product&cp=2&id=1177718060586. Is it going to be compatitable, and play my games to perfect or almost perfect.

Abit Socket 939 mobo (AV8) was AMD Athlon 64 processor with 1Gb of RAM.
Same mobo but changed processor to AMD Athon 64X2 and increased RAM to 2GB. Upgraded BIOS to accept dual core.
I don't see any change in performance. What can I reasonably expect for my efforts?

Many people participate on these websites because they hope/believe that it will further their career or improve their lives.

This question is intended to determine how successful these websites are in living up to that expectation.

I'm bored and childish. I wanted to see if wikipedia has entries for absurd sexual acts. I checked, and they do have entries for "Hot Carl", "Cleveland Steamer", and something called "The Glass Bottom Boat"...LO F'ing L! Anyway, I need help finding more absurd names for weird sexual stuff. Does anyone know of any?

I've been trying, and I've never been able to get the listen-live option of my local radio station to ever work. It's the "listen live" link around the top center of the page.

I have an HP laptop but its too slow for me when I am doing my homework. It has an AMD processor and I heard Intel was a much faster processor, but there's so many to chose from!
I go to NAU Full time and all of my classes are online! I use my computer everyday for school work and then my husband uses it when he gets home to burn CD's. We would really like a fast computer, but dont want to go overboard since we only use it for school and everyday usage.
Any ideas on what type to get, or any websites/stores that offer cheap, but good computers?
