Hardware - July 2007

When I play computer games, they shut down by themselves at the same time each time I play. My brother can't play an online multiplayer game called runescape because it does the same to him although Runescape is not a program. Sometimes the whole screen turns blue and I can see the sentence "beginning dump of physical memory" for 1 second among other computer related codes then the computer reboots. Once i log into my XP account a window comes up that says "This system has recovered from a serious error." And then I can either click Send Error Report or Don't Send error report to Microsoft. That hasn't exactly helped. So what do u think is wrong with my laptop?

My motherboard has space for 20 pins and 4 pins, but my new PSU has 24 and 6. Why type should i buy instead?

Also, on the new PSU the +12V stat is split into +12V1 and 12V2. Can you just add them together to work out if it has more +12V power than my old PSU?

I'm looking for sites that will sell used laptops under $200. Please do not say ebay, I hate ebay, I despise ebay. Sorry if I'm being too picky. I'll add more later.

When I depress caps lock, it shows as "on" but now everything types in lower case. The numbers still show as !@#$ even when I do this. It appears the keyboard configuration was changed, but I have no idea how it was changed or how to change it back. Thank you for your help.

Price is not a factor. I use it for a lot of graphic work as well as multimedia.

Also, is there any big difference in performance with 1GB of system ram compared to 2GB of ram? I'm not to keen on the technical side of things. Is 1.6Ghz a big difference than 2.2Ghz? I'm not a heavy computer user and this will be my first laptop. Basically, I will pretty much use it only for internet and music. I won't be loading any major games on it.
