I added a Ge Force 7 graphic card, a 160GB hard drive, 2GB Ram and a DVD /CD writer. Could Power Supply loading cause the clock
to lose time. Thanks, Dean

I'm not a gamer, I'm just in the market of a new laptop. I use if for work and play - Work = Designing stuff for print and keeping my website up and running, and Play = Web Surfing. Do I need to worry about a high end video card? It seems like I don't and that might make the price of a good laptop a little less. Thanks in advance.

the dell xps M1710 laptop. I thought all dell was cheap i guess i was wrong I could buy an E1705 with the same specs for $500 less and if you want a better graphics card add way more to the already excessive $2299

My name is William Leight and i need a desktop computer for home so i can do my research at home whenever i want rather than having to come downtown to the library. i also need the harddrive and printer to print out schoolwork. Does anyone know of such an organization. Even a laptop would be sufficient.

My pc speakers have always worked fine. I installed a webcam for the first time last week, and tried using both msn messenger and skype for voice / video calls, but the speakers are just not playing ball! They break up all voice (including that of others) so am convinced it is them, not the microphone integrated into the webcam. The dialogue box "Sounds and Audio Devices" pops up but then closes again when I turn on / reboot PC. Have looked through there, but cannot find what is wrong. Please help!

can someone explain to me in simple terms what a wireless router does. I have one desktop pc in the house, the phone junction box is by the front door which is about 20 ft away from the pc, so i am currently using an extension for my internet which everyone keeps tripping over! Will a wireless router, connected to the junction box remove the need for an extension cable, or is this equipment only useful if you have another pc or a laptop other than your main pc.

I am planning on getting a laptop. I have no clue what kind, however I know that I do not want an Apple. Anyways...I am planning to have the basics on it, internet, microsoft word, and powerpoint. I was also planning on downloading the Sims2, so that takes up a lot of memory and stuff. So I was wondering what would be the best laptop for me, that wouldn't be slow, because I can't stand slow computers. But also the laptop would be no more than 1,300 dollars. Please help! Thank you!
