I just yesterday received my PC parts and got to work putting it together.
The system is using an ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe motherboard, AMD Athlon 64x 3000+ Processor, 2x nVidia 9600GT, and a Western Digital 320GB HDD.

After connecting anything, I booted it up for the first time, and entered BIOS. I configured everything and went to "SAVE AND EXIT", and the PC rebooted. First the main logo appeared (Allowing me to press DEL to enter BIOS), and then the screen went all black and gave me this message. I put my WinXP DVD in, pressed enter, and after a few seconds the message reappeared. Whats wrong?

Additional Information:
In the BIOS, the boot setup is set to Hard Drive, CDROM, Removable, Disabled (I have no floppy drive). It was origionally CDROM, then Hard Drive, but that didn't work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I want a Sprint PCS wireless card for my notebook. But I am clueless on what this is. They have 2 plans. One that's unlimited usage and one that has 40 MB monthly usage. How do I know how much I'm using?

I have an 8800 gts and I love it! I want to know if it would pay to get another one? I don't mind the $300 that it'll cost, Im just curious if it will boost my performance significantly enough to make it pay. I want to be able to play Crysis on max settings and the other graphic intensive games too (I sound kinda greedy but it's important to me, not even for bragging rights). I've read and seen reviews and benchmarks but I haven't heard anyone elses opinions on it. My computer is more than able to handle it too if I went through with this.
Thanks!

There is very little storage on my laptop (there is supposed to be 40 GB but when clicking on the (C:) drive, it says there is 14 GB of storage - and i've pretty much used all of it) and I'm considering to buy either an internal or external hard drive.
Which do you recommend?

If I buy an internal HDD, could I transfer all my files and data from my original hard drive to the new one, or would that cost even more?

And if I get an external one, could I use that as my main hard drive and store all my files there, but also use it as a portable storage system?

Ok, here's my problem. When I start my IBM laptop, I can't get past this screen. The Screen has the Logo IBM, and then underneath it has the instructions to press f2 for help and then underneath it has scrolling code that has the words boot device next to it. The last thing I did on was watch a movie, and I shut it down properly. I have no idea what the operating system is, but it's an IBM laptop. Any help given would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks

My computer keeps warning me that I have limited disk space on my C drive. There is a WINDOWS folder in this drive holding a great deal of information, however, my computer warns me that I cannot rename or delete these system files. Besides that folder, the others are quite small and my D drive has next to nothing in it. Is there anyway to tell what I need in the WINDOWS folder? Can these items be compressed or altered in away as not to take up so much space?

Thank you for your help.
