I want to purchase a new PC from Dell as the one I'm using at the moment is rubbish. Dell have an excellent website but I cannot find anywhere on it that tells you how long it takes from placing the order to some bloke at the door getting you to sign for it. Has anybody out there ordered a custom built PC from Dell lately? How long did it take to get to you?

It reads dvds but not cds. I've tried both a cd-r and others. Whenever I reboot, I get a message which reads:

"Application failed to initialize:0x800106ba. A problem caused WIndows Defender Service to stop. To start the service, restart your computer or search help and support on how to start a service manually." I'm guessing this has something to do with my problem.

Please help soon!

I was thinking about buying this to start off and building it up. What you guys think? Should I? Is it worth the trouble? What are some good advantages of building my own computer as well as disadvantages?

I am looking to purchase a midtower case for my collection. I currently own the Full Tower CM Stacker 830 Evolution. I would like to get some feedback from people who either have a good case or willing to purchase a new one. I have between $150 to $200 to shell out.

I just purchase the ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe/Wireless Edition motherboard for this new box. Let me see what good taste you people have for a brand new case. Thank you for your input.

I do a lot of my homework on my desktop. I save everything on my flash drive. Oftentimes, I forget to detach it from the CPU. I'm wondering if what I'm doing is okay. I'm concerned that the usual rebooting of the CPU might end up corrupting my files. Thanks.

SOMETIMES I click on LINKS in Windows my mouse doesnt respond... Sometimes it takes 2 clicks, sometimes 4. Sometimes when I attempt to click-drag the machine responds late and skips the drag midway, causing me to miss the drag and having to restart the click-drag all over again. I'm using a microsoft standard wireless optical mouse and keyboard on Windows XP.
