I build computers and have a good understanding about them. My desktop has an ASUS A7V8X-X motherboard with an AMD Athlon XP 1.6ghz processor. 512MB RAM, 2 80GB EIDE HDDs, and an ATI ALL-IN-WONDER RADEON 7500. (Among other things).

The computer does some strange things. If you leave it plugged in, the power light (and, thus, the computer's power) will flicker on and off at a slow yet increasing speed. This will happen whether or not you press the power button. When it finally powers up and remains powered constantly, the computer (I assume the motherboard speaker) beeps sporatically. Any ideas? Feel free to contact me (REAL EXPERTS ONLY) if you have experienced this with this MB/CPU.

My guess is that it is an old power supply (300W), which has been running for at LEAST 3 years, but I'm not sure. If this is the problem, should I get a more powerful one? Thanks.

Yeah I know laptops rn on batteries, butI don't know the voltages that those batteries supply.

Also for desktops.
Of courseI know that your Processor and chips run on DC, so powersupply is there to convert convert AC to the required DC levels.

But what is the required DC voltage? And how can it be done? Like hhow to bypass all the circuitry?

Everytime I turn the computer on I have to update the driver on one of my USB ports in order to get it to work. This is an ongoing process that occurs nearly everytime and although is simple enough to put right, keeps on happening. Any ideas how to resolve this permanently without throwing the computer out the window?

I just fried my emachine's motherboard and I'm looking to upgrade. I figure there is no reason to replace it for a $100 when I can get an upgrade for $200+ that will last me for a few years. Any suggestions on good motherboards? I am looking for the lastest ones. Do I have to upgrade to another emachine motherboard? Will my emachine restore disk install Windows XP?

I am trying to install windows xp on a brand new hard drive I just had installed.
I installed it last night but it took over 12 hours before it was done and it still did not work this morning when I tried it.
I am in the process now of trying to reinstall it. So far it has taken 3 hours and it is still installing the program.
Is there something with the cd maybe? Or is there something else I should do before or after I install the software to get it working?

Also what is the normal time it takes to install windows xp on a brand new hard drive?

I also have a new motherboard and processor just put on as well. Not sure if that makes a difference.

I have nothing as of yet. Here is what I want that I cant seem to find. I need a medium size case that has 4 usb in the front, capible of 3-6 hard drives, 2 - 4 dvd drive slots, (dont need a drive), big enough to handle at least a 600watt psu, and have at least 7 epansion slots. Then, I need a motherboard that will work in that case that is, socket 775 and able to handle p4 3.6 - Pentium d, 2 pci-e slots, 4 PCI slots, 184 - 240 pin ram x 4 - 6, hard drive hookup doesnt matter, ill adjust accordingly...and thats about it. And the case doesnt have to be fancy, preferably partially see through, but no biggie. Ive been looking for 4 hours and I cant find anything I want. I found a case, but all the motherboards that were compatible werent compatible with what I want.
