    Temperature Problem

    I have a "standard" Dell 4600 machine, that has 2 Hard Drives, 2 DVD Drives and an AGP video card. Nothing is overclocked. Last weekend, one of the hard drives started making noises, and I assumed it was about to die. I ran SeaTools on it, and it said that there was a temperature alarm, and...

    HELP...Computer won't shut off!!

    I just finished building a computer...AMD 2600+, ECS motherboard, etc. Everything works great, but the thing won't shut off. When I go to shutdown (in WinXP), it shuts down, but then restarts right away. Same thing happens when I initially apply power - the PC boots up immediately without...

    Slow wireless connection

    In anticipation of getting DSL in my neighborhood, I bought a D-Link DI-711 wireless router and a DWL-120 wireless USB NIC. I hooked one of my PCs directly to the router via its LAN port and the other computer to the wireless NIC. I got the network working, but it is running extremely slow -...
