I have intel 915 gav m/b, 3 GHz HT processor,512 mb ram. Recently I have installed windows vista rc1 on the machine. After installation everything seems fine but for sound. When I play any audio file, there is no sound though it seems to be playing the file in the application. I checked device driver also but it does not show any problem (no yellow mark). Please help!

I've got 3 partitions on my 250GB Maxtor HD (C: programs; D: + E: personal data).
when I upgraded my computer with some more RAM, it got a bit 'hicky' (wouldn't start properly and so on), until it wouldn't start at all. After reinstalling WindowsXP on a second HD, I tried to save my data (D:) still with the new RAM in. But this messed up my computer totally. Since then I have no access at all on D:. When starting the computer it wants to run chkdsk, but without success ('chkdsk aborted').

--> How can I get my data back?
--> Where can I find the second MFT on my disk?
--> How can I copy the 'good' MFT at the place of the bad one?
--> Is there any program out there that could help me (I wouldn't mind a free one)?
--> Am I right, that it was the RAM's fault (not writing back correctly all the datas)?

Thanks for any suggestion

I must first start off by saying that this is my first computer I’ve built…. I am running a Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe motherboard with the AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+… The motherboard came with a program called Ai Booster.. It basically lets you see what’s going on with the system… It shows that my FSB is 800MHz… Shouldn’t it be 2000 MHz? If so, what exactly do I need to do to get it up there? Remember guys, I'm a beginner..

My pc is on the fritz big time and I know think that it is a fam problem (thanks to some answers to another Q!). The fan gets really loud at times then sounds like it is barely keeping up at other times.
I have torn my h.d. apart and added hardware before, but before I take it apart, am i looking for something that is not evident? Is there more than 1 fan? Most importantly, what kind of costs could I be looking at to replace the fan?
Thanks for your help w/this!
