I'm in favor of Lenovo 3000 C100 - 8922 A12 laptop. Not Sure about Sahara Laptop.
Also I can avail Finance Option on SwamiPC (http://www.SwamiPCFinance.in).

Could you tech geeks give me some input on finalizing?

Sometimes my laptop reads DVD movies, sometimes it doesn't. Same DVDs work, for example my Flame of Recca series DVD works while my Rome series DVD doesn't work

If I had 1GB system ram, and installed this video card with turbocache, will it steal system ram while i'm doing regular things on my pc like browsing or viewing videos? It has 128mb DDR2 ram on board. Will I still see1GB of system ram when I go into windows control panel under system when i check how much system ram i have? Or will some of my ram be missing? Or does it only use system ram when it needs it? I really want to keep my system ram untouched while not gaming.

When I watch videos on this computer and it has to "buffer" up to 100% to watch. It never seems to run smoothly but instead freezes up, or skips. The sound always plays normal, the video just never plays right usually. Sometimes it does depending on what video. On my computer with the Ethernet cable it never really seems to stream videos well, or does the same as what I was talking about before. What is something good to do, buy, or add on to make it buffer and stream videos better?

My computer comes on with this page that says primary drive 1 not found. I can't access internet explorer, any of my icons, no system restore, no help and support center, no nothing. I can come online via Mozilla ONLY and that's luck of the draw. I do not have any viruses. I ran a full scan. Is this drive 1 not found the reason that I am having these problems and if so how can I get it back? Certain icon attempts say error file not found also. HELP!!!!!!! And the screen saying drive 1 not found HAS NEVER APPEARED before all this started happening.

I turned on my pc, and the screen was wavy/mixed with various colors. It looked like an old television that had bad reception. I was wondering what could be the cause of this. I know for sure my monitor is ok, since I am using another pc on the monitor I had been using.

Sort of in a big problem... need help from you pros here at answers.

I have an eMachines T6520. Don't laugh.

It has 1GB of RAM, 2 512's. 200GB hard drive. It originally came with an ATI x200. I gave it an x700 PRO. Didn't do much. It has a 300 watt power supply. Sick.

I want to get an 8600GT. I've replaced the rear fan with a 120mm fan. I am going to replace the PSU before I get the 8600. I'll probably be getting 550 or 600w with 120mm fans on them actually AIMING DOWN at my computer. My current power supply only has 1 80mm fan and doesn't have one on the bottom of the ps to actually suck air in and out.

The bottom line is, if I get an 8600gt, will my pc overheat? Remember, I'll be getting a 550-600w powersupply with a 120mm fan. I also replaced the rear fan.

PLEASE HELP.

I am looking for a new video card.

What should I look for?

I play a large variety of games.

I run Windows Vista.

A 2600PRO card with 512MB of DDR2 Ram wasn't nearly good enough for my use. Was that the speed of ram or the GPU?

It has to be less than $150.

Please give me recommendations.

I found a mag 22" lcd monitor on sale for $240 bucks. It has a 2 ms response and a 1400:1 ratio. It sounds great on paper but I can't find a review for it. Anyone know about it? How about the video7 22" with a 1000:1 ratio? is 1000:1 really that much more noticeable than 700:1?
