I am using Vista. My DVD drive is telling me that a disc is installed even though the drive is empty. I am advised to "save any files open on the disc and then close files and programmes before ejecting the disc". I have tried a restore but am advised that there are no restore points available.

The ages are 7 and 5 and they would be using it for games and internet. The would be a temp computer until they are just a bit older and have mastered using one and I know they aren't going to kill a new one.

I don't OC and i like my computer fast but i'm no Uber enthusiast when it comes to power

how do i make my go faster like my brother complains about lag on runescape, it's not graphically intensive so don't recommend upgrading the GPU

so would i see that much a difference?

what do you suggest about my RAM

does dual channel actually matter and in my situation is it enabled (for those 2 matching sticks of course)

Abit AN52
AMD Athlon 3600 X2 (brisbane)
Xp x64 & ubuntu 7.10
ATi x1650 512 Mb
4 gigs (2x mushkin DDR2 800 in dual channal, 1 gb supertalent DDR2 900, PQI DDR2 677)
SAMSUNG spinpoint P 400 gig 16 mb cache

Is it possible for Intel or AMD to make a 8 core CPU (octo)? or 16 core (don't know the prefix)? Even 32 core? or 64? My mind is wondering how they fit this tiny architecture on a single CPU by virtualization technology? Just asking :-)

I keep getting the same thing:

Boot from CD:

and then nothing.

I have this new comp i built from scratch. I have a SATA 400GB HD with an older CD/DVD rom drive. I checked the wires, and its set up first device booted is the CDrom and then second is the Hard Drive. Still doesnt work. I replaced the CD/DVD rom with another. Nothing. Does the master, slave jumpers have anything to do with this? I have no clue.

I have XP corprate edition, and i cant get it to load. I've tried pretty much everything, and nothing seems to be the problem. Can Anyone help me?
