I am trying to decide between a computer with an intel Core2 Duo processor @ 2.4GHz and a Pentium D with dual core technology at 3.2GHz. I am getting 2gig of RAM, and the Core2 model comes with DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz and the Pentium D comes with DDR2 SDRAM at 533MHz. Will I notice any major difference between the two when runnung AutoCad with mildly complex drawings (multiple x-refs, but generally not 3-D)?

Is the Core2 like getting two 2.4GHz processors? Does the Pentium D with dual core at 3.2GHz mean that it runs at 3.2, but can simultaniously thread two apps through at once? The Core2 has a 1066FSB and the D has a 800FSB. Since the RAM speed is less than both of those, will the FSB speed make any difference? Thanks in advance!

I'm having trouble playing a DVD with my computer's DVD drive (Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-M1302) that was burned with the "+RW" format. It plays back in an extremely choppy manner, locking/freezing up frequently throughout playback. What formats can my computer's DVD player play? How can I get it to play the +RW format properly? The DVD plays perfectly on my parent's home DVD player.

My computer crashed a couple of weeks ago. I borrowed a laptop and chatted with 2 Dell reps. They talked me through testing and told me to buy a new hard drive and the data is lost forever. I used the Best Answer to reboot it and was able to back up my files. I'm using that "dead" computer right now. I think they just wanted to sell me a hard drive. Has this happened to anybody else? By the way, thanks to Roy for the best answer.

okay installed a new graphics card and things just went wrong, really wrong, i don't know what happened. i lost the use of the second hard drive which is partitioned as d & e, it is not showing in my computer or disk management, however it is in the bios as the slave. the hard drive works and is readable in an external enclosure, i did put the old graphics card in but still no joy. i have just tried the hard drives on the secondary ide port and all works fine!!
