I want to upgrade my computer processor to a faster one. I made sure it is compatible with my motherboard. My question is, how hard is it to install it, and where could I find directions for this?

Ok, soo my cousin helped me build my PC around a year ago, and he put in a motherboard with SLI capabilities, and now i want to take advantage of this... (nothing really went wrong with one...) but now i fried my graphics card >< from overuse i think... Word of Warcraft... one heck of a game, and soo i figured i could use a new graphics card anyways cuz i had a GeForce 6800 and thats pretty old. Anyway, I want to know if i can run two different graphics cards (from same company) on it or do the cards have to be the same.. i.e if i got a GeForce 8500 GT, and a 8600 GT, would that work. I have not bought new ones yet, but i found a (as in 1) 8500 for $60 (new) and a(as in 1) 8600 for $80 (new)

I played with assembly language in the early 1990. Recently I started working with a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and felt a sense of Deja vu. My question is: Is RLL (ladder logic) a type of assembly language. More specifically, does each RLL instruction map directly to a specific machine language instruction, or is it more like a compiled language?

I followed the instructions on the HP website that said to just basically plug it in and let Vista automatically detect and install it, I did that. Everything is connected, and printer is ready to go, why is it not printing to my printer? It is not even giving me an error message saying that the print failed.
What am I doing wrong. It is an HP 845c printer.

I am pretty much a noob and want to get into high-end gaming. i got Unreal-Tournament III for a present and it runs slow as crap on my computer. i thought getting geforce 8600gt would be a good idea since its one of the best graphic cards out there. the only problem is that i dont know if i can just install it on my computer and expect it to work or if i need to upgrade other hardware on my computer. Right now it says im running windows vista home basic, AMD anthlon 64 X2 Dual core processor 3600+, 896 MB ram and nvidia geforce 6150E. please help
Thanks

There is no "START" button, but when I hover over the area where it is supposed to be, there is an hourglass. The computer does not respond to "Ctl, Alt, Dlt" either. How can I at least get to the system recovery? (F10 doesn't work)

Hi
I have high speed internet on my desktop last night I wanted to sit on the sofa and surf the web so I unplugged the ethernet cord from the desktop and plugged it into my laptop. but low and behold it said it can not display the page. What ? Why?
I called charter and the guy offered me a networking package for another 50.00hook up fee and 9.99 a month but I dont want to network them I just wanted to surf sitting on my sofa. Why cant i just unplug the ethernet cord from the desktop and run it to my laptop for internet connectivity? I dont know a heck of a lot about this so please be gentle. Should I have told them I bought a new laptop and wanted to use it but when i hooked it up it said can not connect?GZZZZ

I read saw a video from a reliable source that wrapping your Serial ATA cable with a pencil is good for your PC build since it takes less space and thus improves air flow. Is this true? Is it recommended? Will it damage the cable? Thank you.

Hi, I'm looking for a free, accurate online WHOIS IP lookup site that also has geolocation. I once stumbled on one so many months ago that allowed me to check an IP address and then pinpoint on Google Maps just exactly where that person lives. Unfortunately, I reformatted my PC since then and I lost my bookmarks. :/

Anyway, can someone please be kind enough to point me to a similar site? The Geolocation tool is crucial.

And if you're wondering what I'm going to use it for, I'm currently trying to get rid of a pest on my blog. Hehehe... Thanks!

My computer is not alowing me to scroll down on web pages. As soon as I try to scroll down it automatically scrolls back up to the top.

It's also affecting all the drop down menus... as it won't allow me to scroll down. That means that I only have the 'choice' of the first item in the list and won't let me scroll down.

Is it a virus?
Is there anything I can do?

I use a mouse, but it doesn't seem that the problem is with that.
