Desktops - June 2007

My computer reboots itself suddenly even without doing anything. When the error report is sent to Microsoft, it replies a Device Driver is responsible for this. But which device driver? How do I know? May be some other reason? Low Bios Battery?

I accidentally hit the switch on my computer once and it turned off everything. I went ahead and restarted my computer and everything was fine (I wasn't working on anything that needed to be saved).

Could this damage my computer if it happened once?

I am currently building my computer, STILL, and recently I called ECS asking how to get it to work. It will actually turn on now, but I will have to create a short and use the switch in the back to turn it on and off instead of the power button. Anyway, the new problem is that I think one thing the tech rep had me do erased the BIOS from the mobo. Does anyone know how to get it back on?
Mobo: ECS nForce 570 SLIT-A v3.1
I saw something on the ECS website about downloading and booting from a floppy, but the one I built and the one I'm typing on do not have floppy drives. Would it work with a CD?
Also, the computer won't function with the power supply fan plugged in, I think the plug shorts it out. How long could it run without a power supply fan and how could I fix this?

Ok, my family is upgrading our Desktop PC. As resident nerd, I was nominated for the task, the bad news is I'm not a computer nerd, and as such, don't know what I'm doing. I would like to build a respectible rig, and not hurt our wallets too much (under a grand definately, under 700 is the ideal) Below is a brief list of specs for my current PC. I know I will need to upgrade a lot, but if at all possible, I'd like to salvage some parts to help with the cost...

SONY VAIO PCV-RS 410 running Windows XP home edition on an Intel Pentium 4 processor 2.66 GHz with 504Mb RAM

120 Gb Hard Drive (it's split, 20 Gb on C Drive, 100 on D) and I have a 200 Gb Maxtor hard drive (xmas present, still in the box) and 300 Gb external hard drive

SONY DM-HX93 19" Screen

845GV Intel Extreme Graphics
Intel 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics Controler

256 PC-2100 DDR

2 i.LINK S400 ports an 4 USB 2.0 ports

CD-ROM drive and DVD+-RW/CD-RW drive

I'm new at building PC's, so don't make it too hard, good luck!

Does anyone know another operating system I can use to work on my mac with . I tried a linux OS but I don't know how to do it. It says the application cannot be opened because the application program that created it cannot be found. ( it says that when I download a Linux OS and try to use it on the mac. The mac is an imac G3 333mhz with i think 128mb and I think either a 6gb or 8gb HD.

Ok, with the help of you guys I have determined that my PSU is fine. I tested it in another computer a little bit weaker than mine. It got everything up and running fine. Next, I tried putting the PSU back in the computer with the possibly fried mobo. This time I took the vid card out and plugged the monitor cable into the onboard video. (I just wanna see the BIOS baby!) Still nothing, the feared "Black screen" of my monitor showing no response to the computer disheartens me. Next I tried putting in a weaker video card into the mobo. Still nothing. Now, if my mobo is fried, it won't utilize the video card and gimme a BIOS output right? Now, the cpu isn't in charge of putting out a video output, so if I take that out and still nothing gives me a BIOS screen then it is my mobo and I should look into purchasing a new one? I have a 2.66ghz cpu, 1gb ram, 2HDDs 100gigs total, DVD+-RW, 256mbRadeon9550 Video Card, 500watt PSU, ATX case, can anyone recommend a cheap (under $100) motherboard?
