It now has Windows XP , and also Windows Professional . This tower was working fine when my mother got it , but now it takes forever to just boot into Windows , just so she can play games offline. There seems to be a problem with the picture , as sometimes it is not there , and other times it is barely visible..... and we have tried several dif. monitors , one of them being very new , so we know it is not the monitor. My mother's previous computer has had problems with viruses in the past , and she did not have any protection .I was wondering if there might be a hardware problem that is causing some of this , if not all of it, and I'd like to know if anyone could help us with this?

Ok, I have an HP Pavilion 6630 that my kids play on. My daughter shoved a disc behind the drawer of the drive, so the drawer of the disc drive is stuck open, the disc is inside the drive, behind the drawer, keeping the door from closing. I can see the disc, can't reach it. So, how do I go about getting the disc out of my computer?

I have a computer that has been working fine for about a year, then today, out of the blue, my usb mouse, lan, and other usb ports stopped working. I tried restarting, with no avail. I also tried replugging in the mouse, it has a blue LED on it, which does light up, but the infared does not come on, i also tried using a ps/2 mouse which also didnt work. The only i/o port that seems to work is the keyboard which is a ps/2. what could be wrong?

Can't afford a Dell workstation, so I will need to put together my own, and was wondering what combinations/recommendations you would make. at $978 the Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 Kentsfield 2.66GHz 2 x 4MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor is a little out of reach, so was looking at Intel Core 2 Duo T7600 Merom 2.33GHz Socket M Processor Model BX80537T7600 - Retail for $630. How do they compare and what graphics card, case, motherboard, would you recommend? I work as graphic designer with photoshop 300-400MB files and also do a lot of 3D work and video digitizing. Any advice greatly appreciated.
