I already have all the neccesary parts. I know they are all compatible together. It will be my first time and I am just a little unsure when dealing with something I know so little about. I have successfully put more RAM and a GeForce graphics card in before, which is about the extent of my prowess. Does anyone have a good internet resource or be willing to help me out with this? Also things like setting up a RAID (this is for gaming). Thanks so much !

I got a second hard drive. I set the jumper right (so don't tell me to check it). I format the second hard drive, set it as extended and then logical. Problem is, sometimes it shows up in "my computer" or "disk management", sometimes it doesn't. when it doesn't show up in windows, it is detected by BIOS. so how do i make it show up in windows all the time???

I got two hard drives. The cable connecting the hard drive has 2 connectors, does it matter which connector goes to the master drive and which goes to the slave drive? same question regarding the power supply. 2 connectors on the power cable, the order matters?

Hi, I wanted to buy a bluetooth adapter for my Sony vaio laptop. I do not want the one with USB. Wanted one which can be placed in PC card slot and it should be fixed in the slot completely. No part of the card should be shown outside. Please let me know if any one knows such an item.
Thanks a lot for ur help.

everthing worked until i had to replace my heatsink bracket. It is a sony computer with a socket 478 processor. It has integrated video but that wasnt working after i put evrything back together so i tried installing an agp card and it still doesnt work. It is just a black screen like before. What in the world! I also had myself grounded by touching the case.

I just bought this thing and installed it per the included instructions. I even did the whole setting the jumper to "Master" and my regular DVD-ROM drive's jumper to "Slave". I popped in a blank Imation 4.7GB 4x DVD+RW and the little pop-up screen came up as usual. However, it referred to it as a blank CD. I looked at it funny and closed it out passing it as a blunder by Microcrap in failing to write one of its shell files correctly. I went to My Computer so I could open the drive to drag some stuff I need to burn onto the blank DVD+RW. There's no label labeling it a DVD+RW, and when I tried to drag files onto it to burn them, it gives me a message about there being an error in copying the file. Yet when I put in a regular CD+/-RW, it works fine. I checked Windows Update, looked for driver updates, changed the write speed, you name it. Nothing worked. I can't return it either. Wal-Mart won't take back this kind of merchandise if it has been opened. Anyone know what the problem is?

How do these two differ except obviously for the speed? I'm planning to install a game that requires 3.0GHz processor speed but I'm only running a 1.6. Will my system be able to support the game's demands since I'm running a dual-core?
Help please??

I know my question might sound dumb, I'm sorry but I don't know that much about computers..

BTW other details about my system, 2GB RAM and 256MB video card..

Thank you very much!

My computer got wrecked during a thunderstorm the other day so I took the hard drive out and hooked it up to another one as the slave drive so I could get my files off of it, but I don't know how to access it. Can someone tell me step by step how to find the files on the slave drive?
