I have a Pentium 4 2.8 Ghz. In hot weather like summer the temperature goes up to 63 degrees Celsius. Usuali then I just stop using it and let it cool down. I havent made any modifications to it, no overclocking it or anything else. What is the maximum temperature it can handle? Should I do something about it and what?

It works fine after i install it but when i have to re-start the computer for any reason i am taken to a prompt screen telling me that my computer configuration has been changed and it gives me several options. one is to go into Windows in safe mode but lose my previous configuration, or it tells me to try to resart Windows normally or to try to go to the last correct configuration If i go to safe mode i lose my configuration and if i try to restart Windows or find the last correct configuration i am taken back to the prompt window that i started off with.
I followed the instructions on the book and on the driver correctly and it keeps doing this. At every re-start i have to put the original keyboard and mouse back on and re-install the driver and the wireless units and then remove the old units and then wireless works fine until the next start-up. Can anyone help me?

I currently have a tab open on another help site with no success. Bought a Palm TX, made sure I had the proper recommended requirements to use it, followed directions, installed and can not hotsync. My system totally freaks out with blue screen of death and a message telling me the USB port is malfunctioning or corrupt, all USB ports do same thing when they work fine for other applications. I only have the USB local selected, tried to sync from cable button, from hardward itsself, from desktop. There is just absolutely no communication between the two, PDA and Desktop. My next option is to try the tech support, but I dread that call wait and the idea they are reading from a script. What can I do

My friend said that a TV tuner has AV jacks in the back that you could just plug into. True or false? If false is there another way?
