Hi, I'm sure that this is an easy problem, but I don't know what to do. I'm pretty new to computer building so you can laugh as much as you want as long as you help. I've got a Gigabyte GA-7VAXP KT400 motherboard. I was running an XP 2000+ and that was working fine. I'm pretty sure my CPU...

I am in the process of building a computer. It's the second computer I've ever built. The first one turned out all right, but I really don't too much know what I'm doing yet. I got it together and pushed the power button. When I did nothing started up and only 2 lights turned on. The CDRW...

Hi, I'm going to build a computer pretty soon and I need some advice on a motherboard. This will be the second computer I've ever built, and the first relatively nice computer I've ever had. I know I can put it together, but I would appreciate some advice. I have pretty much narrowed it down...
