My computer sometimes hangs. The serviceman says either there may be problem with HDD or with RAM. Sometimes my computer works fine. I don't see any problem with the RAM. Is there any method to find out the problem. Thanks

My SB audigy sound card finally quit working. I had trouble in the past with it locking up my computer occasionally. Recently, it locked up the computer to the point where bios will not even boot up. I removed the sound card, un-installed all the drivers for it, and re-installed windows, it's drivers, and enabled the motherboard AC-97 chipset, and loaded the codecs and drivers from the mother board utility CD. Everything works fine except I cannot use any audio. I get a message saying an error has occured while initializing the sound system. Hardware is in use by another application or no hardware is available. Do you think my mother board's audio chip-set is fried? (KM400-M2 XP2000 Athlon AMD motherboard/processor.) This is the third mother board I have put in this computer, going on #4. Could the creative sound card have been responsible for the previous failures? NOTE: I have replaced the power supplies each time, even though they checked out to be good. HELP?

I have a cabel connection and am supposed to be able to watch vidios and stuff. But the damn thing is so old and has so many viruses I can't do anything! I am constantly getting kicked off of whatever I am doing. It's not even worth putting money into fixing it. I'm kinda broke so I am looking for something around $399 - $499, if that's possible. I do reserch and E-mail alot. And I save alot of pictures. I also love music so I'll probably be doing alot of downloading. I want to be able to watch vidio clips and play games too. And I want something fast. Please HELP! I hate this thing! I just want something reliable that I can afford. There is so much out there, I wouldn't know what to buy! Thanks so much!

I'm wondering whether any data stored in USB devices (ie cameras, MP3 players, flash drives) will get corrupted if you leave them still connected to a computer as you restart or shut it down. Should I unplug them first before doing any of the above actions?

I bought a new video card that allows me to hook up my computer to my TV through S-Video.This allows me a few options to use my TV for.I can duplicate everything on the monitor to be on the TV,or I can set it to extend my monitor making my desktop extend out the right side of the monitor,once it crosses over the right side of the monitor it comes out the left side of the TV,and the other setting is to make the TV a completely differrent screen.Now obviously the first 2 settings will not work to let you have a full screen game going on the monitor and a full screen movie on the TV.But the third setting(TV is a completely different screen ) I think should work but whenever I turn a game on full screen on the monitor the TV goes blank .Why does the TV go blank wheneve I turn a fullscreen game on.
Thanks
Dave
