I checked the cord for damage and I've made sure all the connections are good. What could be causing this?

I am a AMD man myself but I have nothing against Intel Processors. My first build ever was with a Pentium 4 and it worked great. I just think that AMD's run WAY cooler and cost less, and I'd much rather be running a sempron than a celeron for budget purposes(celerons stink). Plus the only reason that Intel processors sell better(if they even do) is because they are so widely advertised. So many people dont even know who AMD is. Let me know what YOU think.

I'm Looking For A Good Way To Record/Upload Videos Using My Webcam For Dirt Cheap Using A Certain Software Or Website..

I Sometimes Use Stickam.Com To Film/Upload, But It Sometimes Stops A Bit. Also, I Tried Amcap Or Whatever It's Called, And I Don't Really Like It..

Any Suggestions On A Better Site Or Free (by any chance) Software That Lets Me Record via Webcam?

Would Be Nice To Try Yahoo Video To Answer Questions, If Only It Were That Easy..

Thanks!


by the way: didn't know where i should exactly fit this question into, internet, software, or this one, other hardware.. thought it would best fit this one since it's all connected back to the webcam..

No one I know has an older computer that I can use to retrieve files on my old disks. The info on them is private so I don't want to go to the library or whatever.

No recommendations, please! Just a simple ansewer will do. I have an Aureal Vortex 1, which I bought several years back. It's made by Aureal, and is not a copy with an Aureal chipset

I've been saving for a laptop for about 3 years, and I finally have about $1,300 to spend. I would like to get a really good laptop and hopefully a printer, too. If anyone has any advice on which brand or specific laptop to get, I would really appreciate it. I've been looking into Dell Laptops the most, but I really don't know whats the best. Even if you're not an expert, but you have a laptop that you really like, please tell me. Thanks so much!

I have a new Dell Latitude laptop and I'm learning all it's bells and whistles. I want to play video on my laptop to my TV for movies and streaming videos. I have the cables for the audio and it's working fine, but I can't the video to out-put through my S-video cable.

I know most laptops have the Function-F5 option for video out, but mine doesn't have that.

Please give me some ideas and options, I greatly appreciate it!

I have a 2.8 P4 with HT. I have a coolant system. During regular use (internet, word processing, etc...), the temperature stays between 59 - 70 (it use to be 40 - 50).... But when I play games, it climbs to 85 degrees Celcius... Is that normal for a P4? If no, what is the normal temp for it?

Oh also, when I first installed the cooling system, I mixed water with some coolant, everytime I need to refill the container, I just added water... Done that like 6 times already (once every 4 months).... Should I be mixing the water with something else? What is that something else?

Should I get a case with a power supply or buy them separately? What should I look for in a power supply Will the mobo and/or other computer parts I buy say in the manual what is best?

And finally hard drives - I've heard Western Digital and Seagate are good quality. However my last HD was a WD and it bit the dust recently, thought that may be Windows' fault. My motherboard will be an ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe (SATA) and I will be using an AMD Athlon 64 X2 processor if that helps. This will hopefully be my last questions about computers for a little while. Thanks to everyone who has been putting up with my incessant questions about computers.
