and it has a weak graphic card (not even a graphic card) called geforce 6150 SE from nvidia. The computer specs is nice but the video card stinks!!

I want to buy a better graphic card, but I'm not sure if the PSU could support a better graphic card.

So my question is:
Which video card would you suggest considering that I have a low PSU wattage?

I don't want a HUGE gaming computer, but a decent one.
Thank you so much!!

*300 watts PSU

how do I go about getting a person's IP address from a Yahoo chat? And once I get an IP address can I find out where it is? I have a internet gf from Paris who says she loves me and my family. I keep asking for her phone number and address so I can send her gifts and cards. She doesn't want to give them to me. I am panning to visit her in Feb to be with her for two weeks. I keep getting told she is not what she seems because she won't give me this info. She hasn't even shown herself on cam. just pics. My dad says it might be a man who wants to rape me or enslave me. What you think? Anyway I can get the info behind her back?

I want to wipe my hard drive completely before I give it away to a friend. I obviously can't break it and I also no longer have a computer, so I cant use any programs to do it. But, I heard that magnets can wipe it, is this true? If yes, how and what kind of magnet? Also, will it completely delete it? I want to make sure because all of my passwords are saved and I have stuff on it that could easily lead to identity theft if somone gets ahold of it.
Thanks

Could I take the RAM from a windows 98 SE PC Net and install it on a 98 HP Pavilion? It only has like 64 Mb of RAM using just one slot, so could I put another stick in? Its RAM is most likely just single, old fashion style.

Would appreciate an answer by someone with knowledge of specific computer RAM designs.

Thanks

If you have this printer and have never altered these values should have the default values. Go to maintain / troubleshoot, maintain or fix quality problems and click on 'align to fix blurry edges'.

I am using a Linksys 4 port router to connect 2 laptops through wireless for internet, one desktop which uses an ethernet cord and one playstation 3 which connects through wireless. My problems is networking the 3 computers together which I have been able to accomplish but when one of my laptops connects to the desktop to either print or obtain files, the playstation is kicked off of the router and loses its internet connection. I cannot figure out how to fix this. To add to the mix, my son wants to connect his playstation to the internet which would be done using an ethernet cable.

I am basically wondering if:

1. The 4 point router can only support 3 computers/playstation or if I can hook up an additional playstation. would be 3 wireless and 2 ethernet cable

2. What I can do so that the playstation is not kicked off when one of the laptops connects to the desktop. What am I doing wrong?

But my motherboard has Ethernet! I just destructive restored my computer last night, before then the Ethernet connection on my motherboard worked just fine.

Will I have to get a network card? I just sent my wife to get on while shopping and the employee at the store told her that all we need to do is reinstall the program correctly (which as far as I can tell, I am)
