I am making a new computer and have been wondering whether or not I really need the new "big and bad" processor.

Do I really need the new Intel 2 core processor?
What Intel chip should I get instead?

I play games like Rise of Nations, Halo, Sim city 4, and Flight simulator, I listen to music all the time.

I have bought additional RAM (512) for my PC and want to maximise installation benefits. The PC has two memory slots should I just take out the old RAM and replace it with the new or can I just add the new RAM to the empty slot so that I have 256 plus the new 512 giving 768. If I do the latter will it cause configuration problems?

A friend of mine spilled a soda on his computer. When they brought it in to be repaired they said the cost would be around 600$. Is that reasonable? How long should it take to be fixed?

I am wondering if i can put non-ecc ram in a dual socket 940 motherboard. Ecc registered ram is a fair bit more expensive than non-ecc, and i want to know if the motheboard would work with non-ecc.

The board i am looking at is MSI's
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/server/svr/pro_svr_detail.php?UID=613

and several other ones.

Also, is it worth the extra cost to get the Ecc registered ram?
Ecc registered ram is supposed to give "Increased reliability"
What does that mean in the real world, what benefits would i see from it?

I have a computer with an Intel D850GB motherboard with 256MB RDRAM on it. Since the amount of memory is too low, i want to upgrade my memory. However, RDRAMs are both obsolute and expensive, i would like to buy DDR RAMs. I wonder if my motherboard supports that kind of RAM, if not does it support anythingelse than RDRAM. I checked Intel's site but no luck. Thanks everybody.

My bf's computer won't boot up. It was fine when he turned it off the last time he used it.

There are lights on the tower which means there must be power going through it, but nothing happens when he pushes the 'on button'. Also the keyboard doesn't light up.

He has checked the cords and they are tight. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I've got a hard drive that's about to go or says my operating system. I've already backed my essential data onto another hard disk. But just for emotional reasons( don't ask what) i want to save this hard drive. I've tried running scan disk in windows and dos but it just hangs( In dos there is no auto fix so I have to sit there pressing yes to every "fix problem" and get atleast 30 problems every cluster), I've tried running norton disk doc but it also freezes after 7%. Help me

Is there a program that can do it fast and easy and automatically and is also free to download :-)
