The last thing happened to my system was a MODEM change. when I was taking the previous MODEM out it caught a small part on the mainboard(a resistant or condenser I think) and pull it out, then I soldered it.
Here is my System information:
MAINBOARD: MSI 865 PE Neo2 (chip 865 Intel)
CPU: (2.4 celeron Intel)
RAM: (256 MB speed:133MHz but the mainboard offers 233MHz)
HDD: (80 GB Maxtor)
DVD-ROM & CD-RW & FDD
GRAPHIC CARD: (ATI Radeon 9550)
MODEM: (Zoltrix Smart Spirit)
FIREWIRE CARD: (Z-cyber)
P.S. : the mainboard has a software that shows the sensors datas. It shows that CPU core voltage is 2.60 while it should be 1.5v.
and the 12v is 1.80

Hi,

I'm looking to buy a new computer. Any recommended processors/mobos, or
anything special I should look for?

I don't really understand all these specs motherboards have. Can omeone
explain the crux of the matter...., what really matters when choosing a
mb/processor.

The minimum I want is a P IV 3mhz. Should I go for a dual-core? What extra
advantage would this give me? How do AMDs match up?

Also, what motherboard will be recommended. I'd find it very helpful, if
someone could specify models, and tell me exactly why you recommend that
model. I want atleast 8USB slots, and Firewire too.

I'm going in for atleast 1GB RAM.

I won't be doing anything deadly. I'm not into games too much. I expect
some juice to be able to download huge torrent files, converting video,
downloading DV from my camera and editing using Adobe Premiere Pro - which
I expect will demand a bit.

I think I'll be buying this pc next week, so any help in this short will
will be much

When I log-off my computer, there are 2 or 3 consecutive pop-ups that ask me to end the program. I have no idea what programs they are.....(some sort of initals maybe like this : .sft.tff). Should I just ignore them? Or should I attempt to fix this issue?

I have an old Canon Bubble Jet printer (12 years). I just replaced the cartridge and within a few pages, it started leaving a blank line through my text (like a white crossout), like it did before. Is this likely something I can clean myself(and how), get serviced (and where would they do that), or is it not fixable?

Rambus is stronger technology with much better architecture. It comes with a 1033Mhz bus speed (one way) and can take heat better. Why is DDR being used instead!?

I recently reinstalled Win2000 pro on my Pentium III PC. The hard drive is 20 GB, but when I look in the C: properties it reads the hard drive as (2.0 GB) with only 442 MB of free space left. It was a fresh reinstall and has no programs installed at all. I am also running 512 MB RAM.
Is this a properties (read) error or what went wrong and how can I correct this? Thanks for your help

The drive will not open. If I open it manually, and put a disc in, it does not recognize that there is a disc in it. Device manager says it's running properly. I'm not sure if I have any kind of warranty, since I bought it at CostCo. It's less than a year old. What should I do? Toshiba's website was no help at all.
