First off I am savy enough to do the job (I'll leave out facts why). I currenty have 4 yr old Compaq Presario 2.7Ghz intel celeron (no daul core) I have already put another 512MB memory chip in it. But it still lacks for what I desire. I am not a gamer but do do a lot of multi-tasking and DVD burner. So where do I go to get the right info on what motherboard/processor will plop right in and what else needs to be done with it

I got the following advice for a computer problem I'm having: "Check for driver updates. This is most likely caused by your videocard. ATI is notorious for its driver problems."

I went to the ATI website and couldn't figure out where to go to update my driver. Can someone please give me directions or a specific link or something?

My power supply currently says:

Wattage 460W
Heat dissipation 931.2 BTU/hr
Voltage fixed-voltage power supply -1 10 V at 50/60hz
manual selection

Is that enough to run the Nvidia 7900GS? I heard that it requires 12+ Volt or so. Thanks in advance!

I did a clean sweep last week and a box popped up saying my hard drive was 84% fragmented. I know this is bad. I tried to run the defragmenting program, but it said I didn't have enough free memory to run the program. I run windows 98 my computer is an antique! Any help is much appreciated.

I am building a computer, from scratch, and I dont know what Kind of power supply I should use. It's an ATX case from Xoxide, and since this is my first computer building project, I want to make it good. http://www.xoxide.com/x-styler-case-blu.html that is the link for the case which I am buying, and there is a power supply option to have ti sent together. What does the wattage matter? All that stuff I would love to know, thanks...
