it goes with this question

ok, i don't know how to word this but one of the computers i have is running windows 98 SE. So when i turn it on no display shows up but EVERYTHING IS PLUGGED IN CORRECTLY. I've tried multiple things but the display won't show up at all. the computer was running just fine a little while back and there where no viruses so can someone help? And i have also tried different video cards but nothing happened. Problem- Nothing on screen and everything plugged in correctly!

let me make it clear,i hear everything running, and the monitor is current.
I've tried multiple monitors
everything is running like a normal computer, everything is on and there is no display on the monitor.
i've tried multiple monitors and it doesn't work.


the computer is worth keeping because i can upgrade everything to XP

is it ok to put a different video card in because i tried that and it still didn't work then i switched back!

I want to know if I should get a laptop or desktop for college. Should I get the best laptop or one that I need to replace in a couple years? What are some really good laptops for under $2000?

I am currently considering purchasing an AMD 64 X2 duel core CPU. I am stuck whether to opt for the 2.8gHZ or the 2.4gHZ. Sounds like a stupid question but i'm on a really tight budget and if I invest more in the CPU I won't be able to spend as much on a graphics card.

Any advice welcome!!

I am so excited about the new iMac. Do you think the glass screen will cause too much glare?

I've had my fair share of pc problems including viruses, trojans, spyware, and adware despite having paid for virus and antispyware protection, so much that I replaced my last computer just 2 years ago, and the replacement so far has cost me $300+ in repairs cumulatively. So, I told the technician repairing my computer that I'd get a Mac next time around despite the extra cost, and he tried to convince me not to because he said the operating systerm is hard to learn or something like that. He said that if you learned on a pc, it's harder to switch over to a Mac and the repairs cost more than for a pc. He's just one of a few IT people I've spoken to who downplay the Mac. Is it because he/they are looking out for his/their business? Or is there a genuine reason for not going for a Mac if you can afford it? I'm basically a novice computer user so I don't know if there are some obvious reasons why a Mac wouldn't be a good choice. Any ideas? Thanks.

My PC froze up a few days ago, so I had no choice but to turn it off my holding the power button in for a few seconds. The problem was when I turned it back on the next day, the PC acted like it was the first time I turned on ever (like I just bought it) asking me how I connect to the internet etc the settings I want to use etc, and Ive had this PC for almost a year. Well that for the most part is taken care off, if nothing else it was annoying to go through the real issue is I am missing a lot of files for example my Napster program is still on my PC but my music files are gone, Microsoft money 2007 is on my PC but my file I use that has all my financial info on it is missing. Like I have programs still on the PC that I installed after I first got it, but a lot of the files I use with them are missing. Now could it be that I had a created directory the files were in and now they are just "misplaced", its hard for me to believe that the files just got deleted but most programs are fine

I ran PC doctor and when it checks the hard drive it fails. I tried checkdisk and it repaired the bad sectors but it still comes up that the hard drive has a demaged surface. Is there anything I can do to fix that or my last resort is to do system recovery? and put it back to original factory state. I even tried system restore but it didn't work.
Please someone help. Thank you.

All specs are here: http://support.gateway.com/s/PC/R/4364/4364nv.shtml
Only thing different is that I replaced the video card with a Radeon X1950 pro 256mb. Want to know if it's even possible to upgrade.

I just was wondering what is the best desktop computer out there for gaming that is fairly cheap? I was thinking about buying a really cheap <$500 computer but then adding a good video card.

Also what is the best processer and video card out there for gaming?
I assume more Ghz is better, right?
What does Ram do for me?

Ok I've been wanting a Mac for a really long time. Since the new iMac has just come out today and Leopard is coming in October, I thought it would be good to get one for Christmas. I am only 15 and you know I will need a new computer for college. My dad says just wait and make use with what I have for 3 years, then I can get a Macbook. But I think 3 years is a good life for a computer, plus I can give it to my younger brother. So should I get it?

I am looking at computers. I am fairly proficient as far as most features are concerned, but I am not sure about the new processors that have come out since my last computer purchase. When choosing a computer, is the Intel Celeron D 360 or the AMD Athlon 64 better?
