Ok I just got a brand new graphics card: Ati Radeon X1300. I followed the install directions un-installed the old one (Ati Radeon 9800) etc etc. Ok when I shut it down with the older card, it would say Off mode in 5 seconds. Then the monitor would turn off.

Now it says when I shut it down Please Check Signal then turns off. Is that ok? It doesnt do it on start up at all. However, once while playing Bioshock it went black and said Please Check Signal so I pushed the cord in the back of the monitor abit and the monitor came back on. This happened about a week ago.

Now just today I was playing Battlegrounds 2 the mod for Half Life 2 and it said Please Check Signal, but this time it went kinda fuzzy and then restarted itsself. First time its ever done that.

Could anyone help me out with this? Do I need a new cable? The cords prongs and the cards recievers arent damaged. Thanks in advance!

I want to buy a USB camcorder to transfer video onto my PC, because my PC has no Firewire ports.

Ineed to find out whether my PC has USB 1.1 or 2.1 ports, because I've read that 1.1 ports are useless to transfer video (I mean real video, not image stills), but USB 2.1 may work out fine. I need to be able to transfer from camcorder to PC to further upload to Youtube, but I want to avoid having to spend money buying a new PC which includes Firewire ports.

BTW, I checked my PC's BIOS (system setup screen) and there's no info about what version my USB ports are. Same with control panel/system/device manager/Universal Serial Bus Controllers/properties. No info in there either. I use Windows 2000 professional.

And of course, I couldn't tell, by looking at either my PC's USB ports or the USB cables I use for my cable modem and my laser printer, which kind of USB interface my PC has, because I'm not very computer-savvy, hardware-wise.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I have WinXP, SP2. I checked, and all my regional settings are English. However, lately, many installation programs attempt to install in Spanish!! So definitely, something is setup wrong. Any clues?

I have run AVG Anti virus software and it has quarantined and deleted it but it keeps coming back. Is there anything else I can do to get rid of it before I resort to re installing windows?

Where do I plug it in?! I have microphone slots, but they're too small and the end does not come off this microphone where the smaller end is on the end of the microphone so where do I plug it in??

I KNOW you can do this, i'm sure, I just don't know where to plug it in and don't want to damage my computer!

I have a Trendnet TEW-424UB wireless adapter. The problem I'm having is every time I restart my computer it connects to the network fine, but does not get an IP address. You have to repair the IP connection every single time you start up the computer. It usually doesn't work the first time, but does after trying a few times. Is there any way to get rid of this annoyance?

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software, and the customer service was no help at all.
