What precautions should I take so that it doesn't cause problems? I would assume ample circulation in the back of the computer (which I think it will). The right side of the processor will sit against the desk under it and there is about a foot (12 inches) of clearence from the back of the computer to the wall.

I have 2 USB ports in front of my cpu and 2 behind it. Yesterday, I upgraded to "Win XP Pro Sp2" from "Win Xp Pro". Just now I tried to connect my psp to copy some songs but something's poping up saying its not recognized. I tried both the front usb ports and they arent working. The other ports at the back are working though. Any ideas on what is wrong? Its very hard for me to use the back ports since i need to reach back.

I need an occasional use printer. I have been through 3 Epson ink-jet printers, because the ink dries up and ruins the printer when it is not used frequently. I would like to print decent photos (doesn't need to be top of the notch, but better than a dot matrix) but I would also like to be able to print regular documents. (Stuff like online directions, recipes, etc.) Any suggestions that will not cost me a million dollars?

The instructions did not tell me anything about the DVI cable. Do I need to hook up both the VGA (Signal Cable) and the DVI cable? Samsung said yes, Staples said no. Monitor won't work, although there's power. On hold with Samsung for Level II support for 1 hour until disconnected. Do I need both cables connected? If so, I need an adapter, because I do not have a DVI port. It keeps popping up on screen, digital , then analog. I suppose it is asking me to choose, but can't get anywhere. The instructions don't say anything.

Sometimes when I turn on my computer it stays on for hours and hours but it will just all of the sudden turn off by its self in as a complete cold shut down, the power to it just turns off.... other times ill be sitting here and ill barely touch the pc and *poof* it just goes off, but im not sure what’s wrong with it, is my power supply dying or something?

everything on my pc boots up great and wonderful I don’t have any software problems at all except for this one power issue, and the odd part is, is that the power issue started a month ago and ive had this pc for almost a year now.
Any suggestions as to what’s causing my problems?
