A8N-SLI Premium

My old mobo crashed, and I picked this up. The PC feels different... I dunno... Anyways, it says it supports X2 cpus, but does it have a limit? My old Gigabyte listed what it supported up to. I was thinking of getting an X2 4800, maybe the 5000? Not sure yet. I just want to make sure it will...

Need monitor help, not hardware related.

Firefox seems to have burned an image of it self into my monitor. It's barely visable, kinda like those 2 lines that come on some flat screen CRTs. But I've got a ViewSonic Va902b. Is this something permanent, or can it be fixed?

Just switched to LCD....

I've had a CRT ever since I had a computer (when Red Alert 2 was a new release), so it's been sometime. I just got a View Sonic 19" LCD for $169 after rebates from Office Depot. There is 1 dead pixel, but you can barely see it because of my wallpaper. The monitor is great, but it seems weird...

Logitech G7...in black?

I'm planning on getting this with a G15 keyboard. If you google the mouse, you can see a few pictures in black. Looks sweet, finally something other than shiney green.

Should I upgrade?

Well I don't have any cooling with my current system. AMD A64 3700 SD, 2GB PC-3200, BFG 7800GTX 256MB, Antec Sonata case. I was thinking of getting an P180 Antec case, Arctic Cooling Silencer, and 2 Vantec Iceberg copper RAM spreads. Should I make the jump? It would cost around $150.

$400 budget for some parts.

My friends PC died, so he wants a new one. Mainly internet and some PC gaming. Actually the only games he wants are Oblivion, HL2, Age of Empires 3, and maybe a sports game. Doesn't really care if the graphics aren't the best, he wants the game playable. I'm giving him some stuff of mine. So...

AntiVir considers TweakNow Reg Cleaner a virus?

I have Kaspersky on a disc. I got it along with CyberScrub. I never used it though, because the version I have barely has a UI. I could never really tell what was going on so I haven't used it. Should I switch?

AntiVir considers TweakNow Reg Cleaner a virus?

I just installed TweakNow Reg Cleaner, and before I could even run it, AntiVir kept popping up saying it was a Worm/Trojan. It's an updated version of TNRC, maybe it has a flaw? If not, what's a good alternative Registry cleaner thats free?

AVG Finding 16 Viruses

AVG has currently found 16 viruses in my Sun/Java folder. Would it be safe to delete them? Because I know some virus/spyware programs target wrong programs and folders.

Hard time installing windows.

This seems complicated for a new motherboard. It's probably something I shouldn't be doing to avoid ruining it. What would running memtest do? I have no idea how to use that either.

Hard time installing windows.

I got Windows to install, but I'm getting errors left and right. I try to install SP2, some files can't copy. I try to run a program from the CD, and I get some error, can't continue. I wonder if the HD is corrupted or something.

Hard time installing windows.

So just burn it to a blank CD, and hope that it installs with no problems, then try to install XP again?
