everytime I use my computer to play games or photo edit or put it on system stand by, the temp rises by atleast 20C it's like it's not disapaiting enough heat, I checked my fans they work fine this has never happened before and my ambient temps haven't changed either! what can I do?

I'm not sure if it's my video card, or some compatibility issue, but here's the deal:
I am unable to play certain downloadable games, because of choppy graphics and interrupted play, including screen freezing, black streaks, and vertical lines.
Specs: I have an AMD Sempron 2600+, 1.8gHz processor with 512 MB RAM. The Direct x version is 9.0, and my video card is an NVidia GeForce FX 5200.
Could the problem be that the DirectX and video card are incompatible? I didn't have problems when I initially got the system two years ago, and now it's acting all quirky! Thanks :)

Well, it's more like my laptop. But recently, i've been switchng popup blockers and such and i just dont know what happend. i tried to turn the laptop on and it just kept on showing the black screen, and so i suppose it crashed. It says its missing some booster file or something, and now its jacking up my hardrive and i have to clean out my whole laptop and start over. Is this the result of viruses, cuz im pretty sure. And is there anything i can do to save all my music files in it?

What character does your computer have over the '4' ? Is it your own currency symbol (I would hope so)? If you're British, is it '£' ? What about anyone else in Europe (France = ₣? Italy = ₤?) Do keyboards have the Euro sign '€' yet? Where is it located?

The extended-life battery on my Dell Inspiron 6000 conked out after 14 months. I don't want to pay $100-$200 for a new one from Dell.

I've noticed that third-party vendors are selling "new" laptop batteries for around $85. Are these things sketchy or is it OK? I just don't want to zap my system.

Thanks!
