The AMD version has ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M with up to 128MB of dedicated video memory
while the intel version has NVIDIA® GeForce® Go 7600
are they both 'open gl'?

For home use. Low volume, but I'd like excellent photo quality printing and reliability. HP makes so many different models I'm dizzy. And are the Canon's better at photos? It should be a nice looking, smaller machine if possible, and reasonably fast. Which models should I consider for under $400ish)

I have had my Razer Diamondback for about 4 months and it has worked fine. For the last month or so, however, the light/laser inside appeared to flicker on and off when i started up my laptop. For the past 2 days it has failed to work completely and I recieve the "USB Device Can Not be Recognized" message from XP Toolbar. Is there anything I can do to make this work? I have looked into updating drivers but i am not exactly sure if im doing it correctly in the first place. The menu tells me to remove all other drivers beforehand and i am cautious if that will make me unable to use my touchpad at certain points. Anyone have an answer?

I have decided upon an AMD Athlon 64 X2 processor, what is the best motherboard for it? I want to stay under $200.00 if possible. I will be doing multitasking, running programs such as Reason, Cakewalk, Dragon NaturallySpeaking, and Photoshop. I want a mobo with expansion possibilities, DDR2 and that has and AM2 socket. Hardware I'd be using includes the usual cd/dvd burner, cdr player, 3 1/2 floppy, plus a soundcard, microphone and other hardware to use in the future to use with the music software. I need at least 4 USB connections

Is PCI being phased out? I notice less PCI slots of mobos these days.

This is so weird! I am at my desk, and I have yahoo radio playing. When I use the shredder, the sound turns off. But when I use the shredder again, it turns back on with a little popping sound. What is causing that? I'm baffled.

For fast drive purpose. Should I focus on getting two WD drives w/ 16mb cache or 2 WD drives w/ 10,000rpm or even 3.0Gb/s? Because it looks like there is no WD Raptor with all 16mb cache / 10,000rpm / 3.0Gb/s and with less than 100GB of space.

This drive would house my Operating System and main programs.

I was then thinking of getting a WD 300GB 16mb cache 10,000 to house my data files.

I used my hard disk (20G) to recover files on a different PC and after reinstalling it and booting I get this message: NTLDR missing ; Hit any key to reboot. When I hit a key, I get back to the same message. How do I solve this because even trying to reinstall Windows XP the operating system, I get the same message along in case where the PC has to be rebooted.
