My computer monitor freezes very often. There is no problem with the monitor itself, since I have tried replaced with other good monitor and the result is same. I have a integrated AGP.

I have uploaded the picture of frozen screen here.

Please have a look on it.

Following trouble shooting already done and not successful :

1. Swapped with another Power unit.
2. Swapped with another RAM
3. Had a check of motherboard at repair shop to check the condition of components

Please advise
thanks

the ticking sound occurs randomly and the system will shut down all by itself. If i switch off the main switch(the plug) and on in again, the system will start all by itself as well. I'm suspecting its a doing of a virus so i reformatted my PC but to no avail the problem still persist!!

Okay for the last 4-5 days my computer is making a very weird noise. It sounds kinda gravely and has a clicking noise when it is trying to load something. Then last night it froze up so I turned it off for a few minutes. When I turned it back on, it said "a problem has been detected with your hard drive, please consult the troubleshooting section of your users manual." I just kept turning it off and on and after about 30 minutes it came back up and worked fine. Today it did the same thing again, but this time it took 4 hours to come back. I kept getting the same message as above, then it would tell me to press enter to continue. When I pressed enter it said "primary master hard disk error." I just kept turning it off and on like last time, and it came back up after 4 hours like I said. My question is this, is there some kind of diagnostics test I can run while it is up to see what the problem is? I use windows xp, and I'm new at the computer so please give me detailed instructions!

Model is HP PSC 1510 All-In-One Printer copier scanner. I got it from Best Buy last Christmas and it has NEVER worked right. I send the item to the printer and it is received and starts but the rollers never grab the paper. I can force the page in one sheet at a time and it works fine but I shouldn't have to. I have also tried different manufactures of paper with no change. What can I do? Clean? adjust? Throw the piece of crap out the window...???

Firstly, does anyone out there have any trouble with dual-core technology? I was looking at a AMD 64 X2 4000+. If so, what do you have the most trouble with? (Apps, games, etc.) And also, has anyone purchased a PC from CyberPowerPCs? If so, how is their service? Were they helpful? Thanks in advance!

Like Sapprie, or Asus, cause it's cheaper - is there any difference between an official card from Ati, nVidia, and an "unofficial" one

is there an "unofficial" card that's better then others like is a Asus higher quality than a sappire or other??
