I made two more cd's since writting this message and one skips and the other is perfectly fine. I have not tried downloading the data back to the PC from a skipping disk. I may try another brand when I get my next batch of blank cd's. The one cd I made recently that didn't skip in my truck...

My CD burner is turning out cd's that are skipping. This is a new drive and so far I have copied two cd's and made two w/ the same results......skipping. I have tried burning at different speeds and w/ different brands of cd's but the results are the same. Is my drive toast or is it simply...

Does it hurt the circuitry/hard drive/drives by leaving it on all the time?

I've got a debate going on about whether or not to leave the computer on 24/7 or turn it off daily. So what do you guys do w/ your systems and why? TIA.

Thanks alot for the help. I think some of my processes are all the security software I have installed. It seems to be fine today although I'm still running about the same processes. If it happens again I will probably try to correct it. I found a link to a process library which will help me...

Thanks guys, I knew I could count on you. :D

I was way off. I first thought it was VIA but later realized that was just the chipset I looking at, like you said ShadowBlade (never said I knew much about these things :o)). The board ended up being an ABIT. I found the info. between the PCI slots . So I entered in the board on the MBM5...

Well, thanks for the help. I finally found it, thanks God for the clear side panel. I got a flashlight and started looking on the board (as I have done many times today). I found a website that lists a bunch of different ways to find the manf. of the board. This site showed me exactly where...

I downloaded Cpuid, now how do I find my mb info.? All I can get is my processor info. TIA.

A long time ago I was visiting my uncle and he had a program that allowed you to select different weapons and shoot or blow up whatever you had on the screen at the time. He was supposed to send it to me before he got rid of it but he never did. I know someone out there has seen this or...

My comp. seems to be having a little trouble but I'm not sure what exactly it is (it's a new tower and I'm still feeling it out). Anyway I just checked my processes and it is running 42 total. This seems high to me but I am basing this on my last comp. (3+ yrs. old @900mhz/125/20). My new...

Thanks for the help. I checked the tools and it said: System Manufacturer: VIA Technologies, Inc. System Model: KT600-8237 Is this correct? I am trying to setup the Motherboard Monitor and I need this info. to configure it. I tried to download the program you listed but...

I'm trying to figure out who made my motherboard (someone else built my comp.). The tower has a clear panel so I can see the MB but I can't find any ID marks. Is there anyway to find the info. on the MB itself or is there somewhere on the comp. I can bring up the info. I have windows xp. TIA.
