We are looking to buy a new computer and saw the imac in the apple store today. It looks pretty cool. Does anyone have one, and if so, are they worth buying ?

My CD-RW drive door will not open. It has a CD in it. I tried to format the CD (thinking that might allow me to open the drive door), but I got the message that the format failed due to damaged media. How can I get the drive open to remove the CD?

Computer was working okay when I shut down, but when I rebooted the next day I got no video. I changed monitors, installed a working PCI graphics card, replaced RAM, removed battery (to reset BIOS) . . . but nothing helped. I've lost onboard video in other computers but was able to install a PCI card to get it back. I have some experience with general computer repair but not with mobo problems. I assume my mobo may be bad, but how do I know for sure? And why did it go so fast?

I use removable drive bays. Would this be a candidate for putting swap file(s) on? Half for Win, half for Linux?

The current mi 6174 v1 motherboard doesn't exist anymore and I need a replacement. Emachines doesn't offer any help for any newer mb replacement. Their customer support doesn't give any info on what to do. So.....This motherboard has onboard sound, video, ethernet 10/100, 3 PCI slots, No AGP, 4 USB with 2 more via front connection. Currently using 2.8 celeron and 120 gb hd. I don't need anything more than a computer to do some research online. No upgrading is needed. I would like to have a motherboard which will fit my casing. I think I have a mATX, but honestly I don't know for sure. I don't need a powersupply or anything like that, just mb.

I took my compuer to a shop, and asked them to upgrade my compuer with more RAM and a Graphics card. They told me they couldn't because the slots to insert a Card or RAM were gone. They said the people who made it too them away to save money.

So I can't upgrade it. Well me and my friend opened it up ourselfs and found the slots. But why did he say they were gone? Could they disconect them? Is there anyway to upgrade it? By the way, my computer is a HP Pavillion Xp home edtion. I think they said it was made only for homework and internet, not for games.

Right now, I have to remove the USB card from my motherboard, shut down win98, reinsert the USB card, boot up my windows 98 (pentium 233). Then insert the USB flash drive into the card. Sometimes, the USB flash drive is detected and it works. Sometimes, it is detected as an UNKNOWN Device. i.e. sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Would be happy if someone has any idea/tips to make it work all the time :)
