I wanna buy a second computer because currently I'm sharing with my roommate. I wanna get one for myself but don't have alot of money. I need a quality computer though since I'm use it alot for work and school, and personal financing. So can you recommend a quality computer at a good price, nothing above $900.

I bought my ATI Radeon x1900 GT about a year ago. Up until a few months ago, it was awesome. I could run any game full settings, no problem. then it went down hill. First, i started to get these annyoing display corruptions when i was playing Oblivion... they are these god awful triangles at that stretch off textures during 3D games, taking up screen space and buggin the S*** out of me. it soon spread to ALL my 3D games. Then, i started getting game crashes. The game would freeze, then i would get a message saying "VPU Recover blah blah blah Your video processor was not taking commands" or something. It only happened on a few games, and usually after i had been playing for half an hour at least. Ever since it started happening its been getting worse. Today, i couldnt play HL2 for a min without reappy ba corruptions then a crash. Some games are working fine but most are totally dead. the bad games: Half-Life 2, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Oblivion, BF2, and other video intensive games. Any help!?!?

Adobe Flash Player won't download for me. When I go onto this site http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&P2_Platform=Win32&P3_Browser_Version=MSIE it doesn't show me a "install now" button. I only see it when I click the shockwave flash player, which I was able to install. Anyways is there anyway that it'll let me see it? I just recently got the recent internet explorer and I dont know if thats why my computer isn't working right. Like on some sites if I click a link nothing will happen. It wont even show it loading.

Both my USB slots on my HP Pavilion laptop are busted.. the company's estimate to fix it is $300

I see bus card adapter but the ones I can find you also have to plug to USB..(wtf?)
It has a serial port but it's not a 9-pin port it's 15 pin.. but 3 rows of 5 pins .. all the adapters I see are 9-pin

Any suggestions?

I have been wondering why are there small underlines on the letters of menu items. Can anyone tell me what do the small underlines do or why they are there?

If you are a Mozilla Firefox user, you should know what I'm talking about.

Hi

For a while now my pc has crashed after a milli second BSOD appears. It always does this when my modem is connected and powered on.

Even in safe mode i get the BSOD (Safe Mode and Networking) and it states the problems there as DCOM (System error), VSS (Application error) and Eventsystem (App error). They all state they couldn't start in safe mode and thats why the pc crashes in safe mode

My error message states this:

DCOM got error "This service cannot be started in Safe Mode " attempting to start the service EventSystem with arguments "" in order to run the server:
{1BE1F766-5536-11D1-B726-00C04FB926AF}

Can anybody help or knows the route cause to this constant crashing and BSOD?

Could it be faulty memory? After running an indepth look at my pc with an analysis program, it came to my attention that I had 113 of 223MB memory available. Is this faulty simply because it doesnt state I have 223 out of 223MB RAM?

Is the prob a device driver in my modem?

Help?
