I have to hold the plugin just right for it to stay plugged in. How do I know if it is the plug or the computers input that is causing the problem? I need serious help!!! Thanks

I've had a SOYO MOBO (SY-P41875P DRAGON 2 v1.0). for 2 years and had no problems until today. The pc was working fine when suddenly turned off by itself. When I press the on/off button, it won't do anything. I was checking all the cables from the PSU and noticed this: when I leave the 12v 4 pin power supply cable unplugged, the PSU starts (with no video), but if I plugged it back, it won't start at all.
Thanks in advance.

I was looking on ebay for video cards and came across PCI-E and was wondering if it'll work in PCI slots, and if so how much of a speed difference will I notice. My current PC specs:

Pentium 4 3.0 GHZ (Prescott Core) with Hyper-threading
1 GB of Ram
HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA4165B (That's what system information says)
80 GB WD Harddrive
Nvidia GeForce MX 4000 with 128MB (in case they came in different memory sizes)
Motherboard came out of an IBM Computer, not sure of the name, but it uses a PCI riser (I believe that's what you call it) and only gives me 2 PCI slots, which one is taken by the above mentioned video card. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My screen resolution is fuzz, and limited to only 800 or 1024 display. I'm supposed to be able to view at 1440 display, but it is not an option. If it's the video card, what do I purchase that is compatible...or is there a way to update my video card by download? Thanks.

Can you run a faster drive on a slower interface - in other words, will the interface on the drive take care of slowing down to the maximum rate supported by the drive controller?

The stub was very weak anyway and was bent down to the max so i tried to lift it a little and it snapped. It has not affected by internet speed or anything, so is there any need to worry, it slides out easy but that was already like that becuase i take my laptop on the go often and pull it out.
