This humming that is louder than the regular sound seems to be occurring after the computer has been on for a while, and it sounds literlly like a motor of some sort. If I restart, it sometimes goes away, then comes back later. Sounds like something is just spinning away as I write this, but everything appears to be working fine. If you're like me, noises are a bad sign and there, drive me nuts. Any suggestions? A fan perhaps?

I just want to be able to edit some photos (not professional) and listen to music and edit some documents. It also needs a DVD player. What should I look for in terms of specs and price? Oh, and wireless is a must! I want to surf the internet at home on my wireless network.

I'll be using it at home for basic home use. Wireless is a must. I'll be surfing the internet a lot. I will be using MS Money, Firefox and word processing. I also want to watch DVDs with it. No games, I have a desktop for that. What are the minimum specs that I should look for? Any other advice?

I have/had (who knows) a virus on my pc. It was eating up all the space on my pc. I didn't know I had the virus at first, so I thought I just had too many program and whatnot. I deleted a LOT of stuff and every few minutes, I still get Windows is Running Low on Disc Space. I checked the Norton Antivirus thingy and it said that it detected very corrupted files and there was airus on my pc. I went to system restore (like I've done so many tims before) and it had several dates in blue that I could go back to. But the only day I could actually click on was today's date. I know I have a lot of other restore points within the last two weeks. Why can't I go back?

I'm switching jobs and going from a place that exclusively uses PC's to one that exclusively uses Mac's. I've only ever used a PC and the extent of my Mac experience has been with my ipod. Is there a place online that I can go to get some pointers so I don't look like an idot on my first day?

I've had problems from getting a computer with video cards in it that werent compatible with the motherboard, to waiting a week for a $10 cable that was supposed to be in stock and shipped overnight....I've referred tens of thousands of dollars of business to them, but will never again!!!!! There product could be the best in the market, but with this kind of support you're better off going to some retail chain to purchase computer.

I have a problem with my computer. When i switch it on its working but no signal is coming to the monitor. I've tried another monitor another RS232 cable (video cable), i've tried another graphic card, i've double-checked all the connections inside the computer but still in vain. Otherwise everything else seems to be just fine. The HDD is working, the CD and DVD ROMs are working the mouse and the keyboard are working as well. What i'm thinking is that either the motherboard or the CPU have some kind of problem. My motherboard is ASUS P4500-MX / 963SIS. Can somebody give me any clue. I will really appriciate any help given.
