Hardware - July 2006

Which I'm not happy with, paper feed becomes jammed, continues to print out a sample page, so on... When I purchased my computer, printer was included. I'd like to throw this printer threw the window! Any suggestions on New Affordable Printers? Compatible with my computer

I've been looking at getting a new computer and the sales reps at these don't know much. I know that they are separate companies that produce processors but I wanted to know what is this difference. My current computer has a Pentium 4 and I'm leaning towards the Pentium but I've also heard that that AMD is just as good.

i have a 250W power supply. i have added a dvd-rw in place of the dvd player. i have also added a good audio card. i want to add a good video card soon but i know i will probably need to get a bigger power supply box. i am considering a 500W power supply. if i have 2 times the watts does this mean i will have 2 times the heat? or will there be less stress on my pc and the heat will not change much?

I am looking to buy a laptop, considering a `Sony V' or an `Acer' brand at the same price but with a lot more memory and also Intel Duo. Is it a wise move to stick with the Sony as I know they are a reliable brand? Does anyone have any experience with `Acer' comps?

For whatever reason hard drive (1) is not and will not boot without starting over and I'm too lazy (and not bold enough yet) to mess around with system files.
If I have an xtra HD, which I'll call (2), I know it works and is compatible w/ the motherboard of drive (1), it also has the same OS installed on it, however, drive (2) has never been installed on drive (1)'s PC. Would I be able to make drive (2) the master and boot from it drive (1) would be the slave. Load the OS and then go into (1) and collect all my important files.
I'm just curious.
