I have a dell dimension b110 with xp home. what would happen if i installed media center on it? i know media center needs "special hardware" to run correctly, but would my computer still run it? my computer has 1.5gb of ram, 160gb hard drive, 2.53GHz celeron D.

It seems like all the Dell PC's include a monitor, which I already have! I think that boots the price up a little bit, so I am looking for something comparable.

When I try to start my computer, it says that Windows cannot start because 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\system is missing or corrupted'. It says to reboot with the original XP disc and press 'r' at the first recovery screen, but I dont know what to do after that. I dont even have the CD. Does anyone have instructions for me, for when I get the CD?

My PC is about 18 months old and has started going slow, particularly when opening programmes and often when operating in the programmes. I have McAfee Virus Scan and also use Ad-Aware SE, Spybot and Registry Mechanic. When I have occasion to use Windows Task Manager to shut down, there appears to be scores of programmes running and I dont know what they are.

Yea so my question is is it safe to increase ram latency in bios or would it just break the computer because it would get unstable?
