I want to build my own computer, I have a tower, I have a cd/dvd drive, screen, keyboard etc.... the only problem is choosing a good internal hard drive, one that will support my entertainment system ... it doesn't have to be elite... I want one with a good price and enough memory.

I'm thinking of getting the HP Pavilion dv6040us Entertainment Notebook PC. I just want to use the usual Windows features like Word, Excel, plus upload photos, iTunes, watch movies and play games.

Would I be getting too much if its 2048MB and 120GB hard drive?

I like the AMD Turion 64 x 2 TL-52 1.6 ghz

Price is at my limit at $1100. Should I get something else at similar or lower price?

I have a dell c600 and a docking station ii. I want to put in a graphics card into the docking station, but i heard that you can't have a graphics card with a latitude c600. I also heard that you need an external moneter if you do have a graphics card. If so, could i use a tv as a monter? Thanks in advance!

This happens most of the time, but not every time. Any ideas on why this is happening? The screen and pointer just freeze. I regularly do a virus scan on it and defragment my hard drive etc. Thanks!

I got a computer with a loud fan - the fan noise is 27-47 but it always goes to 47. Its a homemade built computer. The processor is 478 chipset processor (Pentium 4). The computer fan is so loud. I've looked for fans replaced it and it is still loud. I dont wanna go through the hassel of buying online because if these are loud, I'll have to send them back etc.
What can I do to soundproof my case for a low price or a cheap home-made way. I don't necessarily want to replace my case. But are there some cheap homemade ways to make my pc case quiet? If you know of FOR SURE a quality silent fan that is actually quiet please let me know as well.
