My CPU frequently stops entirely after I run the games for a short while even though the specs on my machine is more than ideal to run the programs.My monitor screen just 'freezes' and the CPU stops responding.

when I turned on my computer it didn't say it was going into safe mode so I'm not sure if it is or not but the things in the screen are big like it would be in safe mode. I tried turning it on and off again a few times but it still stays the same. Whats wrong with my computer? How can I go back to normal screen size?

My printer is an HP All-in-One. I go through the HP set up menu and make all of the adjustment to print on the envelopes, and it still doesn't seem to be working. When I put the envelope in the paper tray exactly where the envelope icon is, the addresses are still printing on the opposite side of the tray.

Okay so we have tried updating it but it messed up our computer so we reloaded OS 9 this was about 2 years ago. Now lately a new problem has arisen-now it will freeze up during any application, I can't print or save or do anything. We used Norton Disk Doctor and it found major errors in some internet files but that was about it. I have no idea what is wrong-we don't have many files or applications on it either. Please if someone has any idea how to fix it or if we need to get someone to come screw around with it or if we need to get a new computer please offer your smart computer minds.

I am getting a computer for my 11 yr old son to use for school. He will be using it for online research and projects. He will have to be able to download pictures and put them on MS word for his projects.
This is just a computer for him to use for the next 3-4 yrs until he's in high school and needs a better computer.

I found a disposed 80Gb hardrive. Not wanting to waste it, I tried installing it to my computer. The problem is: I just can't. I connected it but the computer just kept telling me that it couldn't find the PRIMARY hardrive. I moved the plastic pin-things at the back of each hard drive according to the sticker in the hard drive I found (Master with slave= middle, Slave=the side). Still, it won't work. I don't get it. Suggestions, please? Thank you for your time.

I have a Gem GM-170B Black 17" LCD Monitor that, for some odd reason, on rare occasion, does this strange pink-flickering thing, in which the color jumps to a more pinkish hue, then back to normal, then back. Then after awhile, it totally stops. I've not been able to find out what the cause is online, and I'm curious if anyone has any ideas as to what would cause this.

Thanks.
