I have hard drives. i tried to install with windows xp home service pack 2 discs but the license keys on the computers don't work. Could the keys be too old for SP2? So do I need a pre-Service...

My motherboard passed away. I'm building a new system and I was wondering if I should upgrade from my current video card which is a 6600GT. i haven't kept up with the latest video cards in over a year, so i don't know how fast newer video cards are now. is it time to upgrade? if you thinks...

the first one is set at 192.168.0.1 and the second one is set at 192.168.0.2. i'll have to check DCHP. the signal doesn't seem to travel much through walls and floors at my house. the G is in the first floor. when i'm in the basement, i get about 30% signal. when i'm on the second floor, i...

I'm basically trying to do this... http://www.backfrog.com/images/060809-diagram.jpg the routers are both D-Link. I have an ethernet wire connecting between the two routers. The problem is that the second router won't connect to the internet. I thought it wasn't connecting to the G router...

first one it killed was an enermax whisper 350w. the second was an antec smartpower 350w. the third is actually from a compaq, hipro 250w

my power supply died and i put a new one in. the second one died. i tried a third one but didn't attach it to the case. the power supply hasn't died yet. is it possible that it's the case that's causing this? how can the case kill the power supply?

i was thinking about upgrading the cpu to an athlon or a overclocking the duron that's in there now. do you know what the fastest athlon cpu i can put in there, will any athlon with 200MHz FSB work?

I made a computer for someone and they gave me their old computer. It's a Sony VAIO PCV-J200. Does anyone know any info about it? The mobo is Asus A7S-AV, but they don't have any info on it at Asus's website. Thanks in advance.

do you think it is neccessary to have a really good cpu fan/heatsink for this overclocking? I think I would be satisfied with 3Ghz, I don't plan on pushing it any further. I already have plenty of case fans.
