How about thoughts on the case?

I do light photo/video editing, gaming, and office applications. Plan to use the Intel 3930 CPU, and I'm in US. My current computer is 5 or 6 years old and I'm thinking about reusing my Silverstone Temjin TJ09. Use this or get a new case? For the motherboard, looking at Asrock Extreme9 or...

In regard to the IDE DVD burner, I can live with buying a new one and I would lean toward on that did Blu-ray as well. For the motherboard, I'm looking for quality and dependability. I really like the idea of a USB3 port for the front of the case. I use two external Esata drives for backups...

Asus seems to have the best boards based on what I have read. Trying to decide on Maximus IV Extreme, P8P67 Deluxe or Sabertooth. I am leaning toward the Deluxe because it has a front panel for USB3. Here is what I'm using to build the system: Intel 2600K SSD ~ 200 to 256GB (C300...

Ok, I did what you said. The computers can now see each other on the network, but I get an error from either of them when I try to access the hard drive. I can see the shared folders, but if I try to access it gives an error. The new laptop came with McAfee and the desktop uses Norton.

We have a network workgroup with 3 xp wired computers. We recently bought a laptop with windows 7 and a wireless router to connect it wirelessly to the rest of the network. The laptop can connect to the internet through the network, but it can't see the other computers. What am I doing wrong...

"Wiring Box" is a panel next to my fuse box that has all the communications wires coming into it. Basically, I have the cable modem and router in this panel box that is in the corner basement of the house. All the phone and network lines meet in that box.

Currently, I have three wired computers throughout the house. The router I'm using is a Linksys WRT54G with a Linksys PSUS4 for things like the TV and Blu-Ray. We bought my daughter a laptop and she wants to connect it wirelessly so I bought a Linksys E3000 for the G and N bands. Here's my...

We had pictures taken and the pictures have been put on a CD. When we put it in any of our computers, it crashes with a blue screen. If we start the computer up with the cd in the drive, it comes up with a blue screen that says Bad Pool Header. Any idea on how to get this CD to work or should...

My four year old daughter wants a laptop, and my wife wants her off of her computer so it's time to buy a laptop. My daughter plays online flash games and some kids computer games. Also, we want her to be able to watch DVD's on it. I'm looking to spend 450 to 650. It seems like my choices...

I bought a computer at a yard sale a couple of weeks ago. I replaced the hard drive, but is there any risk to the bios? I don't know where the computer came from but it might have been someone's work computer so I just want to make sure it is safe to use. Thanks in advance

I installed ICQ 7 last night. Now I get very frequent errors referringto a script problem that mentions Yieldmanager. How do I fix this?

I downloaded Chrome. Things are working alot better as flash seems to be working. The one problem is my work uses the web for reports. For some of the reports, I get "Loading for the first time...." but nothing happens. It's almost like Java isn't working right. Does Chrome use java or do...
