What do you think would be better? the amd fx-62 or the amd athlon 64 x2 5600+? They seemed very close in benchmarks and are now close to the same price.

i have an Intel Pentium 4 processor 2.8c GHz with Hyper-Threading Techonology.
for some reason, my computer can't boot up past the welcome screen so i reformatted. my computer is dramatically slower. it takes like 10 minutes to turn on the computer and opening up folders/files takes forever also. i checked task manager and my CPU usage is 70-90 all the time and i have no programs or whatsoever running. i have 1gig of ram and a 7600GS Nvidia video card. i have no idea what is wrong. i am thinking something is wrong with my harddrive or my motherboard. can anyone help?

I have to buy a computer and printer this weekend. I have never bought these items on my own.

What are the key items to look for in a computer?

Also, where are good stores to buy these items? I really don't have time to order these items online.

For the longest time, my computer would not allow me to enter Setup or give me the option to go into Safe Mode. Through the advice of a co-worker, I unplugged the PC and popped out the CMOS battery and let everything reset. This brought back the ability to go into Setup, but still no Safe Mode. Does anyone have any ideas? I have a Dell Demension 4300, 512 MB Ram, Window XP HE.

Is it possible to view thumbnail photos on a mac without using iphoto? Can they be viewed by thumbnail in their own folders? It seems to me they can only be viewed by label.

i had a small form barebone, running intel socket 478. it stopped turning on last week, i was pretty sure it was the power supply. No fan, would turn off as it tried to start...

so i got another sff barebone off ebay. I put the ram, cpu, hd
from the old into the "used" ebay sff.

Now when i try to boot, it turns on, turns off, the first couple of times i got this pink/green screen and powered down.

Now it just fires up and turns off after beeping once. I was checking the bios beep code...looks like it just the "attempt to boot" standard beep.

Anyways...is this a problem with my cpu all along? does the pink screen mean i got a bad video card on the new system?

help!!!!

thanks!
