Desktops - October 2006

Went to turn on my computer and there appears to be no power. However there is now a little light blinking on the back of the PC. Anyone know what this is.

I am building my computer, and i can't decide what kind of gamingmprocessor. The socket does not matter. I have not purchased a motherboard. I would also like to keep it under $100.00.
Thanks.

I am looking for a way to eliminate some of the noise my PC makes. I looked up liquid cooling systems and found out they eliminate noise and keep your system cool. After looking on NewEgg I could not fin any for Intel Pentium D. Do they make them? Where can I find them?

Yet again, one of my custom computer questions. This time, I'm wondering about the motherboard. What brands would be good for a gaming computer. Thanks for your help guys!

I'm building a custom computer and have looked on websites for steps on how to do it. One website told me the things I needed, one was a chassis. I haven't heard of this before. Can anyone explain what this is?

Sometimes I notice that my computer has turned itself on after I've completely shut it down for the day. During the day I usually use standby. I'm operating Windows xp on a five year old Pentium 4 system.

So i bought this new computer case, because my hp763n case was to small. I don't really want to buy a whole new motherboard.
Would this be compatible with my ATX case? or is it proptietary? And just a normal 20 or 24 pin power should work with this?

I m using a P4 with 512 MB RAM. I even have recently changed the power supply. There is hopefully no virus as I am using PC-Cillin Internet Security 2006 with virus definitions updated everyday! Pls help this thing is really annoying. I have a feeling that th problem could be in the RAM but am not sure how I can solve this. The system restarts irregularly. Sometimes in a few minutes on start and sometimes after hours. The frequency is increasing as days go by.

i was bought a dell 3000 last year and i was told that it had a dvd drive and it does not. i was told it costs £650 with a printer and 17 inch but i does not even have microsoft word or any programs on it.

i think this was a rip off, what should i have been able to get from dell if i paid £650?

also someone told me that dell often dont include what you have asked for to save money, is this possible? if so can i do anything about it a year on? i really need help?
