The bottomline line is it isn't as sophisticated as the most of the notebook these days.

A few months ago my computer stopped working, at first I didnt care but now I want it fixed. At the time we thought it was simply my power supply, but after being given a USED power supply, my computer still wont work. It turns on, but you hear no sounds like anything is loading. (Its a desktop) I cant ask a company, because my brother built my computer, but he's not currently living anywhere near me so I cant have him fix it. My brother said since it didnt sound like it was running any processes, that my cpu was fried. So.. Im wondering whats a cpu, how much does a new one cost, and how easily can a person fix it themselves? Or would it just be cheaper/easier to buy a new comp.

I've heard people talking about overclocking-running the processor higher, right? how exactly is this done? what are the dangers? how do you cool it so it doesn't overheat and what do you cool it with.?

It's made by NEC, and has a 1.66 core duo processor, 1gig of RAM, and ATI's Radeon Xpress 1250 chipset. Maybe I should get more memory added so that I can dedicate more RAM to the graphics? I'm so bad at this stuff. It's the LaVie 850 model by NEC, only avaliable in Japan.

If you store data on a usb flash drive, is any of that data stored on the computer somewhere after you pull the flash drive out?

First I get the error message : "Cannot play back the audio stream, no audio hardware is available, or the hardware is not functioning." When I click on details, it says, "There is no sound card
You either do not have a sound card installed on your computer or it is not functioning properly. If you do not have a sound card installed, you must install one before you can listen to audio in a digital media file. If you do have a sound card installed, refer to its documentation to troubleshoot the problem."

Does anybody know what I can do about this without having to buy anything? A site maybe where I can download what is needed? I'm not really technical so you might have to give your response in everyday language that someone like me can understand, thanks.
