i have a emachines T3624 desktop computer (p-o-sh btw)
when it is running, it is extremely loud, i can hear it from another floor!. im pretty sure its the fan thats loud. Ive had this problem for the last 2 yrs. i sleep in the same room, and i want to let it run at night while its doing scans and defragmenting and large downloads and things like that, but i sleep in the same room, so i want to make it shutup. someone told me that i need to clean the fan, then it will stop making the sound, but i dont want to open it up because i have no technical capabilities and know nothing about computers. also i dont have time to buy compressed air to clean it with. is there a way to clean it without compressed air? could it be an issue with another computer part? HELP!

I have a 300W PSU in my computer. My new card says minimum of 350W. I only have 2x256MB of ram, athlon 64 3500+ CPU, 80gb HD, 3.5floppy, USB firewire card and one DVD burner in my PC. What would happen if i just plug the card in and see if it works? Would it damage anything because there isnt enough power? Or would the computer just not turn on?

EVGA 7800GS AGP

PSU combined power 280W http://www.cybertronpc.com/Itemdesc~ic~POW-APX-AL300~eq~~Tp~~PCc~.htm

Alrighty, I've read this Q&A, and added 2 comments but nobody replied to them.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Akxl5WsWi3o.b0uI4WJcCfMjzKIX;_ylv=3?qid=20070902091222AACAFnm

I've got the same computer as JP who asked the question.

I also discovered this graphics card:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130071

So my question in detail is.. .What do I need to know if I want to upgrade? Will I have to buy a larger power supply? Will I need to install extra fans or some sort of cooling system?
Will my motherboard even support this GFX card model? (I don't know what motherboard I have and don't know how to figure it out)

I'm lost with this technology, and really want to be able to experience DX10 games, and replay games I can no longer play...

Thanks so much in advance = )

Windows XP Home

What should I do? The system worked properly until now.

I had problems coming out of standby so had to force reboot. It prompted me for the system disk and after going to repair with the CD it says:

"Setup did not find any hard disk drives make sure they are powered on and properly connected to your computer, and that any disk-related hardware configuration is correct this may involve running a manufacturer supplied diagnostic or setup program."

"Setup cannot continue. To quit setup press F3"

Hai guys!

I have a big issue.. Probably not that big but its big for me.

Here is my problem. I have this 640mb XFX geforce 8800 GTS XXX Graphics card at factory OC'd @ 600/1500/1900.

I when on load its touching 80 C.

I am a bit concerned about this. I would like to run my PC 24/7. But with this clock speed and Temperature there is no way I am gonna risk frying my Card.

One of my friend suggested that underclocking the card could solve the problem. But unfortunately neither him or I dont know how to underclock a card.

Can I under clock a factory overclocked card using some utility like ATI tool or Riva tuner or similar tool to stock speeds and run for 24/7.

I am not talking about permanent underclocking through BIOS flashing. Just a temperary Underclock so that I could run my system 24/7.

So when I game, I could turn off the software ( ATI Tool, etc) to change back to overclocked speeds.



Is it possible? Or is it just a stupid Idea of me?

Please help guys!

looking forward for your Urgent replies.......

Regards
