The sound card is installed correctly with the proper drivers. I turned the comp off, plugged in external speakers, re-booted but when it got to desktop it detected new hardware and tries unsuccessfully to load drivers for it .
So i went to control panel and found that my sound card was no longer installed. Out came the speakers and I re-booted again, and it goes back to normal, has sound card listed properly in device manager.
Any suggestions?

I have upgraded my PC to:

P5B motherboard
Intel Core Duo E6400
NVIDIA 5900GT video card
2G OCZ PC6400 RAM
320G Seagate SATA hard drive
DVD writer

The MB manual recommends AT LEAST 400W power supply, which means I'm gonna get fleeced for another $100 or so. What power supply should I buy?

I plugged a little three outlet wall surge protector into a 220w outlet, then plugged in cpu, heard loud pop and burnt smell. It was only plugged in for a second or two. How can I tell if it fried the motherboard? Or if the power supply is even cooked? If the motherboard is gone, is the memory or video card also gone?

This actually a question about a question. Somebody asked a question, I gave an answer, someone else said my answer was wrong, his was chosen best answer and I commented on why I thought mine was right. Now I'm wondering who was right.

Can anyone answer the question I asked there? I got answers but they were more interested in sounding smart than answering a simple question. Best answer for both I guess.

RAM had been enjoying a relatively steady price decrease. But now, RAM is getting more expensive again. Why is this?

I booted up my pc for the first time, and went to the bios and told it to boot from the cd drive. So then I put in the XP disc and rebooted but it doent say anything is detected, it goes to a screen saying the following "Reboot and Select proper Boot Device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key"

btw this is a bootleg xp, but is that really the problem? I will go out and buy the XP but Im confused as to to if it is even a problem with the cd.
