Desktops - June 2007

I have 2 20" monitors that I run at the same time and multi task on both and my current computer just can't keep up with it. I usually have a game running on one screen while I have movies or posibly another game running on the other monitor? Any advice as to what I need in a computer?

I have an older PC(2002, AOpen, 1.0 GHz Intel Celeron, 128MB RAM, Windows XP SP2) and I want to pass it down to a younger brother. However, I want to make a few upgrades(384MB RAM, and a 32 or 64MB video card)before. I need some info on the motherboard, but I'm not sure how to find this info. Is there any software(other than CPU-Z) where I can find this information?

After I unplugged my dell and plugged it back in. Everything sounds like it gets power (hardrive, fans, etc.) But my front power light stays a constant yellow, and so does the monitor. Any help appreciated.

about a month ago my friend's computer got infected with a virus. every so often a blue screen would appear saying fatal error must shut system down, and somthing else about memory loss, so my friend's mom called the company and they told her instead of getting a new computer , just wipe everything out and restore it as if it were new....so basicly she lost all her pictures and documents, but she didnt care, but i just don't know how to do it for my computer because mine is doing the same thing. if someone could help me i'd be extremly greatful!

I have a dell xps 400 and I need to change the power supply. I am looking at the antec neo he 550. It appears to have all the connectors I need, and the dimensions, while not exactly the same as the current psu, will fit in the case. Is there anything else? I don't understand the at/atx thing or whatever else.

Last night, while I was out of the desk area, my desktop computer suddenly turned off.

I tried plugging it into a wall source where it lit up for a fast moment and then died. What should I do?
