Hi
I am new to this forum so hopefully I write all the information that's needed. I built a computer from old parts and installed Microsoft Windows XP on it. I viewed the system information and this is what it said:
Pentium 4 CPU 2.8 GHz
1.8 GHz
480 Mb of RAM (Another question I have.. Why 480 Mb of RAM when I have a 512 Mb stick?)
Thank you for your time!

Okay my problem just happened as second ago, my screen starting shaking/wobbling/ being unstable. I would think it would build up from a little shake to major shaking, but no, It's just shaking crazily now!!
Enough to make me nautious (@_@), My monitor (and PC) is about 5 years old!!

Thank-you, I really appreciate your help!

Is there a type of silicon chip or something of that sort that can store A LOT of memory, mainly in the form of videos as well as text.
And not only that, but smaller than a postage stamp?

Also would it be able to survive being swallowed and staying in the body for about two hours?

This sounds like a stupid question but it's for a story and i need accurate information.
Any suggestions?

when lookin on the backside of my comp tower, it looks like this

X --- video card
Empty
Empty
X --- Sound card
Empty
X --- Ethernet Card



the problem is, the fan is on the top, so i was thinking of putting it on top of the video card, but theres no slot. and i cant move the video card, so if i put it under the video card would this be okay?

I am going to buy a Video Capture device called "Dazzle DVD Recorder" and it can record wateva comes onto the screen. Instead of doing that, can I just save the videos I capture to my hard drive?

My specs are "intel(R) pentium(R) 4 cpu 2.40 GHz, 512 mb of ram", and I'm thinking about getting a "BFG GeForce 7300 GT 512MB DDR2 AGP Graphics Card".

Is it going to be compatitable, and play my games to perfect or almost perfect.

Abit Socket 939 mobo (AV8) was AMD Athlon 64 processor with 1Gb of RAM.
Same mobo but changed processor to AMD Athon 64X2 and increased RAM to 2GB. Upgraded BIOS to accept dual core.
I don't see any change in performance. What can I reasonably expect for my efforts?

I have an HP laptop but its too slow for me when I am doing my homework. It has an AMD processor and I heard Intel was a much faster processor, but there's so many to chose from!
I go to NAU Full time and all of my classes are online! I use my computer everyday for school work and then my husband uses it when he gets home to burn CD's. We would really like a fast computer, but dont want to go overboard since we only use it for school and everyday usage.
Any ideas on what type to get, or any websites/stores that offer cheap, but good computers?
