My laptop screen stays blank while the computer starts up, then the screen is corrupted (yellow and blue lines) for a few minutes before it loads properly. Does anyone have an idea what this could be? (It's a toshiba and just over a year old).

I have a whole bunch of space on my d drive, but only a little bit on my c drive. Is there any way to transfer any of that from one drive to another? A program maybe that does that? I am not sure but I need more space on my c drive bad and I constantly move stuff to my d drive but my programs are still on c. Also if anyone can tell me how to MAKE something download on d instead of c please tell me that. Every time I install a program it goes to c and most the time doesn't give me an option to change it.
Thanks for your help in advance.

I have a gateway FPD that use an ac adapter i don't have the orignal adapter but I tried using one from one of my laptops it either didn't have enough volts or amps I can't remember which one but when I turned on the monitor like a green transparent shiled was infront of the picture I was wondering could it be the ac adapter not being powerful enough to make the monitor work properly or is the monitor just bad?

I can purchase a 3ghz Dual Core Pentium D cpu for less than $100.00, but a Intel Core 2 Duo cpu costs over $300.00. What makes them so much higher? Would a 3ghz Dual Core Pentium D processor be an improvement on my 3ghz Intel Pentium4 processor?

I used to use a Pentium D 805 2.66 , I found it to be pretty ok. I never had any trouble. But now I have the chance to ship into a Core2 duo. My options are E6420 or E6550 or E6600. If you are a good computer nut then you will realise that something is in E6550 which is 1333Mhz FSB instead of usual 1066. How much performance impact it might cause. oh!, MY Motherboard is GA965GMS2 and using 512x2 DDR2 800 on dual channel. I heard that 1333 Mhz bus may effect the durability of 965 boards, In that case should I use a P35? Just give me your opinion.

My dad did something to my computer which cleaned up my hard drive, by compressing files. I'm not sure how he did it, all I remember is he went in to something, and then box appeared, and he clicked on something...
Not very informative, I know...
But it needs saying...
So, anyone got any ideas??
