    System 32 Error

    hmmm thats odd, the file isnt at that location at all, it doesnt appear to be anywhere. Virus software already deleted the file but not the registry command to activate it on startup?

    System 32 Error

    Sure I'll just delete it and run my virus stuff. Really glad it didnt work. Surprised that antivir didnt catch it, or maybe it did and thats why it didnt do anything cept make a registry entry?

    Opening compressed files

    Never had to use one on my last computer. It just automatically opened anything when I clicked on it but I just built this one and Vista doesnt come with a program to open these.

    Almost new computer issues.

    It wont even get that far. I just put the hard drive back in my old system, will copy essential files to dvd and do a clean install of windows xp once I get the hard drive into the new computer. Was trying to avoid that time sink but, ya gotta do what you gotta do.

    USB Keyboard on a new build

    If it does I am not fast enough to click the button at the correct time. The blue screen is up for (im guessing here but) less than a tenth of a second. There isnt a way to shut off the auto-restart? I thought there was but I dont remember how to do it.

    Which CPU?

    Okay so I think I am going to go quad core since that seems to be the direction games are going. Although nobody really uses it yet, it seems that its going to become more and more common in the future and hopefully I can get a longer life from the quad. After I get it all set up I might be...

    Which CPU?

    AHHHHHHHH okay you guys are all driving me nuts. This is only the second computer I have ever built so I barely know what I am doing. The last one was about 5 years ago. I think I have a pretty good machine going so far see this thread for whats up...

    Just moving this up, in hopes I get an answer to my last couple of questions.

    Make me the best gaming rig I can get for $1200.

    Okay I am liking the build that Bamacre has suggested, I think for now I am going to stick with my 120g hard drive and for 26 bucks each I might get at least one more maybe 2 more ram chips. Only question I still have is the sound card one. The on-board audio is good enough that I don't need a...

    Make me the best gaming rig I can get for $1200.

    Cool all that looks great, with the extra money you're saving me I might just go ahead and get a bigger hard drive than the 120g seagate barracuda 7200 rpm I have, although I haven't used but 30g of the 120. Hmm maybe I wont. Theres nothing wrong with my hard drive so I might keep it. So the...

    Make me the best gaming rig I can get for $1200.

    Thanks that looks great. Just one question is a core 2 quad 2.44 going to be faster than the 3ghz I had picked out? And is all of this going to fit in a mini case?

    Make me the best gaming rig I can get for $1200.

    Cool Thanks for the advice. I really am not a guru when it comes to this kind of stuff. All I know is that I can get more computer for less money if I build it myself. I am also technical enough to think this is fun so.... Sure and thanks cheaper is always better. More computer for less...

    Make me the best gaming rig I can get for $1200.

    Keeping longevity in mind would it be better to get a motherboard with 2 pci x16 slots so that in the future I could sli a second video card? Would that give me the ability to get another year or so out of this rig before I have to build a new one? I might not understand things perfectly but if...

    Make me the best gaming rig I can get for $1200.

    A little more expensive than I was originally planning but that just means I put it off another paycheck and save some extra. Hows this look? Almost the same as what Hoofan reccomended I just upgraded things a bit more. Probably supreme overkill for what I do but who knows what I'll be doing...

    Make me the best gaming rig I can get for $1200.

    Okay so I looked around and found this. Now am I missing it or is there no soundcard included in this build? Is there onboard audio on the mobo? Is onboard audio good enough for gaming if its there? 500 watts psu? I am assuming thats enough or he wouldnt have put it in there. I could spend...

    Make me the best gaming rig I can get for $1200.

    So I started another thread asking for advice on a setup I had picked out myself. I got some good advice, but I got more of an idea of how little I know. I am not sure how to prioritize how much to spend on each part to get the best possible system for the money, so I am asking you guys to...

    I need some advice with buying a new system. I have built computer systems in the past and its time for a new one. I have about 1200 dollars to spend. Even though I have bought and built computers in the past I realize now that what I did was shoot in the dark and spend more money for less...
