I tried opening up my computer to check out what type of RAM and CPU i have, but when I put it back together it stopped working. Nothing appears on the Monitor and there is no beep when I just open the computer. Can you suggest what's wrong with my computer?

...will it erase the Western Digital software that came with it? It has 35GB of space taken up, by what I am assuming is protected disk space, which is necessary for installing drivers and backup software made by WD. If I reformat the hard drive will it reformat all that information too? Obviously, this question is gearing towards people who have recently purchased a Western Digital external harddrive.

All I want is to be able to play a stupid game that just crashes back to desktop. What would be best to upgrade to? I'm not made of money but would certainly consider spending what I have to.

I think it still works, but the bulb blew out and you can't see anything on the screen. Can it be fixed? Should I sell it, throw it out, or give it away?

Lets say i am planning on getting one of those HP Copier/Printer/Scanner devices, but the thing is, it only uses 5mL instead of 28mL of ink. If i am just using the printer to print just words and no pictures. Can you tell me about how many pages can i get out of just 5mL.

Also would i be saving more by getting

about $18 for 5mL or $28mL for about $30

I know its probably obvious, but i didn't know if Hewlett Packard how a way to turn 5mL into 28mL, like web accelerators lowering quality to increase speed.

I have a DSL Modem, and i was wondering, if i get a Wireless Router and the Adapter, do i also need to buy a CAT/Ethernet cord to go with it or can i just use the one that comes with my DSL Modem. In other words, does the Wireless Router operate like a DSL Modem just by itself and that the only difference is that i can also use it to connect another computer.

Ok - I want to spend around $800 on a laptop. I will be using it to surf the web, send e-mail, do basic work with Microsoft Office and listen to music. I'm looking for something with an 80 gig hard drive and 512 MB of memory. I know next to nothing about computers. I've heard Dell customer support is a nightmare. All of the local electronics stores (Fry's, Best Buy, Circuit City) have computers in this range but most people online seem to agree that there are better deals on the web. Any ideas?

It keeps giving me a message that the print head is not installed. I just used it a few days ago and it seemed fine. I've already tried changing the ink tank among other things. The model is a Canon i320. Any ideas?
