    Amazon Fire TV

    Hello Everyone, please accept my apologies in advance if this is in the incorrect forum. I'm trying to access my Fire TV remotely using my PC. I've read online where I need to have an Android SDK pack, which I've tried downloading, however I simply don't know what I'm doing. Any help would...

    Thank you. I forced the PC to boot from the SSD by unplugging the power connector to the HDD and the OS appeared to load fine. I then reconnected the HDD and entered the BIOS however I'm not certain whether the PC is still booting from the SSD as I didn't see an option for SSD in the boot...

    Hello everyone. Thank you for all of your previous support. I've installed the Samsung SSD however the SSD doesn't appear in the Disk Management screen. I checked the BIOS and the SSD is showing there, however not in the Disk Management. I haven't been able to clone from the HDD to the SSD...

    Thank you! I plan on returning the 750ti, however I am going to swap out the HDD with a SSD and using the HDD for storage (thank you all for that advice BTW!!). We'll see how the system performs before I upgrade the RAM. I'm waiting for the ssd in the mail, so I'm in a holding pattern for now...

    Thank you!! So if I understand you correctly, for my purposes, installing an additional GPU would mainly serve if I were to need an additional digital output (e.g. HDMI, DVI, etc.)?! Or possibly if I were to want to setup a multi-monitor environment. So, for example I could use the integrated...

    I think I'm just going to return the GTX 750. I've used the Gateway computer since '05-'06 and I'm so used to using older technology which is why I purchased the 8400GS for the Gateway. But after reading your advice, it sounds like the onboard GPU in the Dell will work just fine for my needs...

    The Gateway had Windows XP installed at the factory. I recently upgraded to Win7 Pro 32bit via software purchased on Ebay. I've read in some reviews for the Dell that the GTX750 works ok without having to upgrade the PSU. I'm looking into possibly the Seasonic 460W Platinum ATX PSU, however...

    Valid point. As I haven't used Win8, I'm basing my thoughts on reviews stating Win7 is better than Win8. I do intend on testing out Win8 before making my final decision though.
