    PC won't boot

    My parents PC stopped booting all of a sudden. The PSU/CPU/Video fans all come on, case lights come on, but then nothing. I tried swapping out the RAM with some that I know works, (it is currently in the PC I'm posting from) and to my delight, it booted up fine. So I bought some new RAM...

    PC wont POST.

    My parents Gateway PC died. Basically, when they hit the power switch, the PSU made a whining/squealing noise. I bought a 350w Antec Smartpower 2.0 to replace the bad PSU. After installing it, everything seemed to work fine, except when I was in the BIOS tweaking some stuff it froze. After...

    Router woes

    I bought a Gigafast EE400-R router so that my computers can share my DSl connection. Everything installed in a matter of minutes, and everything was working fine. Both computers can access the internet, and file and printer sharing are working. However, when I attempt to play any games online...
