I now live in the UK. It is a PC purchased in the US. We removed the power supply thinking we could just swap it out. We're now running it using a step down transformer with the original power supply. Any help would be appreciated.

I bought a logitech webcam and a free microphone headset came with it and it's not working. I can hear sound in the headphones. Just the mic isn't working. My computer tells me that it's connected and I checked all the volume controls and they were all up. When I test hardware under Sounds and Audio Devices, it normally tells me that it did not detect sound. Do you know of any way of fixing it? I've tried everything I could and it still doesn't work. Could it just be a cheap mic that the company was just giving away with the webcam?

I Have tried to upgrade RAM to 512MB but system does not boot. If I install 384MB (256 + 128) it works.NO problems with RAM. One of my friend suggested to upgrade the BIOS. My second question is, I can't find the serial number for the same. Is there any way to find it?

I just want to switch cords, but I wouldn't know what to do if I had to do anything else once the 2nd cord was plugged back in (hopefully this makes sense!)

I need a quiet but powerful fan for cooling my computer (specifically for cooling the motherboard - attached to the case). What is it that I look for when buying a new fan? Amps? Wattage? Brand? Help!

What are the good/bad brands and where is a good place to buy one that won't rip you off. Looking to spend about $700-$800. Or is it better to purchase a PC? Any information will be helpful. Thanks.
