I am upgrading to new parts - ok mostly all new parts and keeping my case because I like it (the case does have LED lights if you take that into consideration as well) and I am wondering how large of a power supply the experts would recommend based on what I am putting in.

The Details:

Motherboard is a Socket 939

Processor: AMD Athlon 64 4000+ / 1MB Cache / 2000MHz FSB / Socket 939 / San Diego Core

Video Card: EVGA GeForce 7300 GT / 512MB GDDR2 / SLI / PCI Express

1GB of memory to start out but will gradually add up to 4

My DVD drive reads and plays DVD films but cannot read or use Data-DVDs, CD-ROMs or audio-CDs. It used to. Bizarrely the USB DVD burner on my PC has the same problem. Both are visible and seem correct in the Device Manager and test out ok for data transfer when Nero does a drive check.

I have brought a New Computer which has an ATI Video Graphics Card, the supplier has said it is 512 MB, but I need to confirm it, how can I do that?
If you want to Check the RAM installed in your PC, you go to MyComputer/Properties/General Tab it shows what is the processor speed,RAM installed etc, is there anyway we can check for the Video Graphics Card.

What is the Difference between SDRAM and EDO or FPM DRAM

2006-10-27 03:59:15 · 5 answers · asked by Potato C 1

My computer is announcing that the ram is dead- according to its beeps at least (the computer starts, and the fans are on, but the screen does nothing). But I have two blocks of 512mb RAM- and I've tried to switch them around, and it still doesn't work.

Does this really mean that my RAM doesn't work? I find it hard to believe that both of them are busted. However, I've had ram-related problems before with the screen freezing whenever I used a Ram-intensive program such as bittorrent.

I've also seated and unseated the graphic card, so I doubt it has anything to do with it. Is it safe to try the ram on another computer, to see if the fault is there? I suspect the RAM i've been using is pirated. Is it possible that something else beside the RAM is causing the problem?

*mutters* Ram is expensive.

When I start my computer nothing happens on the screen and I hear uniform long beeping sounds, and the powerbutton doesn't work and to turn off my computer I need to remove the powercord.

The screen remains blank- all the fans are in operation, and the disk drives function. On the back of the computer there are 4 indicator diodes which are glowing red- except one that is glowing green.

I am confused- is this a problem with the powerbox or the 3d card? Perhaps something is loose? Help please.
