I just finished a new build using 64 bit Vista Ultimate. The only problem that I encountered was my screensaver wouldn't work. I noticed the computer wouldn't go into sleep mode, either. I Googled, and fiddled, and met with no success. I played with the advanced power options with no luck...
I am getting "Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." quite often. Happening both on my xp laptop and desktop. Does seem like a "sorry" version so far. Anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks for the replies. I'm kinda cought up in balancing cost with performance. I keep telling myself " a little more cash will get me more". Just when I think that I've made up my mind, it's back to "a little more cash will get me even more" scenario. I think all the suggestions so far would...
I want to put together a new computer based on this combo. What do you guys think? I might even try to overclock for the very first time. I am not sure what ram to pick up. Should I get the 1066 speed? I saw a comment for the motherboard review that said you need a quad core processor to...
I would like to buy a computer off Ebay, but many owners remove hard drive to protect their privacy.
If the computer has a coa sticker, what would be the best way to obtain legal copy of o.s. Can I purchase a disk from company such as HP, Dell, etc.? Many listings point out that "COA is...

I wish I understood how Buy.com distributes these discounts. I believe that I've gotten all of them offered so far, but only received an email regarding the very first offer. I always carefully look over my email to include spam folder. No email notifications, but I do have discount at...
I can't speak for the Vostro 400, but I can say that the 530/531 model case is far from "sturdy". I would compare it to a very inexpensive Newegg case. The 5.25" drives are not held in place in any way that could be considered "sturdy". The right side of drives are held in place by pressure...
HI,
Looking for some opinions on path to take. Building or picking out a computer for friend. Has been several years since my last build, and have not kept up on things. Friend has twins, and new baby. Takes high quality photos of family with digital slr camera. Needs alot of storage...
HP/Compaq had a class action lawsuit against them because they sold their computers without revealing that a large portion of hard drive capacity was used for system restore purposes. I'm guessing that they are a little scared of more lawsuits so their using larger capacity hard drives to...
