Has the CEO of AMD decided they are sick of progress and development or will Barcelona chips be out soon? Every time they've said (and this starts from how long back, March or something?) they were going to release the new chips, they haven't. Does anyone have any new information, or any idea on when these will come out?

I have an HP a1410n running WinXP. It came with 1 gig of ram (2x512) DDR400. I put in another 1 gig (2x512) in it to make 2 gigs. Strange thing is the BIOS now says all the memory is PC2100. I take out the new, back to PC3200. Take out the old put in the new, it says PC3200. For some reason together they run at PC2100 instead of it's PC3200 speed. They are not the same manufacturer but the RAM I put in is mid grade GeiL. The PC only has a 300Watt PS in it. It has 3 hard drives a DVD-ROM and a few usb periherals. An ATI 1600XT pci express card in it too. Is this a voltage issue where the power supply can't provide? Or is it a BIOS issue? HP supposrt has come up with nothing for me. I need your help!!! Why is my memory running slow???
Thanks in Advance!

I got PC2 6400 800mhz DDR2 ram that can run at 4-4-4-12.
Right now i have it set at 5-5-5-15 because i dont know if i wanna mess with the voltage. I am running just 2Gb, with a Amd dual core cpu 2.8ghz, and Radeon HD 2900xt graphics card. Would i really notice the change in the ram if i change it?

I don't know what's wrong with it. Me and my husband went out and got it a new power-supply, because it wouldn't come on when we hit the power button. But after installing the new power supply, it still won't come on. It's also making a clicking sound - like it's wanting to power up, but instantly dies. Could it possibly be the mother-board?

One of the blades in the CPU broke, now it's shaking the whole board including the cards on it. I check the hard disk and it does not shake that much compare to others attached to the motherboards. I'm worried on the Processor and the Video card as well as to the board itself. Does high vibration on motherboards a problem?

I'll be hoping for an answers. Thanks.
