I turned on my pc, and the screen was wavy/mixed with various colors. It looked like an old television that had bad reception. I was wondering what could be the cause of this. I know for sure my monitor is ok, since I am using another pc on the monitor I had been using.

My laptop is Celeron with 1.3 GHz, the desktop is Pentium 4 with 2.93 GHz. Obviously, the Pentium is better and faster, but is the difference really supposed to be that much? My laptop is so very slow to boot up. It's only one year old, and just recently really being used. I did load Office on it, but the desktop also has it and it moves at a normal/fast speed at 2 years old and used all the time. The Celeron is just so frustrating (if that is the problem), before I spend money to upgrade I need to know if it is worth it. Oh, have good firewalls on both, so the laptop is not infected. I'm sure about that. It has always been slow. Thanks.

My hard drive size keeps going up and down.. It's suppose to be about 50 gigs left but it was down to 785 MB earlier, I thought it was me being careless so I deleted some stuff and it went to 13 gig free, then it dropped back to 6 gig when I checked. Anybody know what I should do? If you're not an expert, I would suggest you kept your opinions to yourself.

I have a dell with two processors (it's a workstation, and I don't mean dual-core) that I want to use for gaming. My question is, wont having two processors take up a lot of power along with the video card? Here are the basic specs:

Two Xeon CPUs at 3ghz
3 gigs of RAM

And the video card I want is an 8800gts (320mb). According to dell, the power supply is 650 watts. Is that enough?

Do all or most computers have them? I'm not sure if I'll be able to upgrade my graphics card if I don't have them. I have a Dell Precision 670 if that helps.
