I am a medium core computer gamer. i burn CDs. i am going to connect a wireless router to the computer and broadcast the high speed internet to the rest of my house. I also need to know what is the best type of processor inorder to run all of these aplications because i have haerd that some are good for computer gaming but others are only good for office orianted tasks like networking and data sharing. so what is the best mother board and processor.

Does that sound like a ground problem or something is shorted out?

It's not a bad shock but a little tingle one.

I'm going out today to buy a cheap-*** notebook, which I've never had before. My husband and I also have three desktop computers between the two of us.

Is there a router that can handle both wireless needs and our desktop computers?

Hardware n00bie here, hope this question even makes sense....

It keeps buzzing, everytime I start it up, and it never starts up correctly. I've had this problem before, and have been able to fix it. However, I'm not sure now if it is the hard disk itself or the CPU fan or other cooling fans. It is a laptop, if that make a difference. Please, if you can, tell me what I can do to fix or trouble shoot this problem. I'm technically advanced, so I would know the "lingo". Thanks in advance guys :)

I have a Dell Dimension 8400 that came with Windows XP Home edition. I have a SATA hard drive and no floppy drive. When I load windows XP Pro it doesnt have any default drivers for a SATA controller so it doenst think my pc has any hard drives on it and aborts the installation. I dont have a floppy drive that i can use to load the SATA dfrivers when it asks if you have any drivers ou want to load from floppy. Anyone have any ideas how I can do this?

My 3-year old (very smart with computers) got onto it and did something so now when it boots up it stops at a screen that says: "diskette drive 0 seek failure error", than boots to Windows after staying at that screen for a couple minutes. It might have something to do with taking out the floppy drive (never used it and the light always came on--basically a waste of space), but I took it out a month or so ago. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
