How are video cards made by 3rd party companies different than ones direct from say ATI or nVidia? Companies like Sapphire, BFG, Asus, etc

My external USB TV card is only recognised in one of the front panel USB port. I have 6 USB ports in my system. 2 in front panel and 4 in back panel.

All other 5 USB ports are not identifying the hardware. The message "Found new hardware" is not poping at all and the software for USB tv also cannot locate it.

My other USB devices like Digital camera and modem are working fine with the other ports. The digital camera uses USB 2.0 connection. This TV card also needs USB 2.0 port.

System details:
P4 3.06HT, Intel D101GCC Motherboard, 1GB DDR
OS : Win XP SP 2

I am using a Zebronics External TV Tuner USB 2.0

Kindly advise on this issue.

I have a 1ghz system which currently has a 20gb hard drive and I am planning on installing a seagate 80gb ATA hard drive on it. Just wondering if the motherboard restricts how much is installed (i remember reading something like this somewhere). I have checked and yes there is an extra connection wire and power wire available in the system to connect the hard drive. Thanx for the help.

Ok my ATI Crossfire setup says it needs 2 cards, one of them being a graphics card (in this case a Radeon X1900XTX) and the other a being a X1900 Crossfire edition. Do these cards both work together to provide better graphics or do the two cards just help one another with the load?

A pop-up balloon appears when I try to synchronize and when I click it, there is a message about an unknown device in the USB Root Hub. I can get the Treo to synchronize via the infrared port on my laptop but the synchronization cable will not work.

Just set up my PC and thought that I could get Freeview on it but it only tunes terrestrial channels as I just have a coax aerial not going through digibox or anything. Do I have to invest in a digital TV card for my PC to get Freeview? If so any recommendations.
Cheers.

I spent hours recording all my cds onto my itunes on my old laptop (not conected to the net). I am now living abroad and had used my work computer to download some good songs from limewire, etc. i also managed to access itunes and set up an account to buy a couple of audiobooks.
I managed to get all my new tunes onto my ipod but most of my old ones have been taken off. They are listed in my library but with an exclamation mark next to them. When I click on it, it says that itunes can't find the source. I am give the option to manually find the source but there are about 20 folders, each with 10 music files. How can I replace my songs quickly without searching through every music file. Is there a way to get my favourite songs back?????

Hello,
My computer runs fast when I am doing light work (Word, Internet, etc) But when it comes time to work with downloading a 5 min long movie from my DV camcorder and editing it on my computer it slows down to snails pace. Sometimes I have to turn it off because it freezes on me.

I got 640 mb of Memory with 353.36 of virtual memory free. I have a 2.39 GHz cpu and 7gb on my hard drive free out of 20 gb. I know I got no malware/spyware, already scanned and removed the few I had. I was thinking of clocking up my cpu, but I don't know how or if it will help.

Thanks in advance.
with space on the hard drive, i will be getting an external usb hard drive.

Is there a digital camera (not fancy) that I can use as a web cam? Can I get one that also allows me to download pictures onto my USB memory stick?

How do they work as a web cam? Do they come with some kind of a cradles?
