I'm wondering if there is any value in upgrading the Intel Pentium 4, 1500 MHz processor in my 5 yrs old Gateway Performance 1500 Desktop PC - I wonder at the same time if it is possible to upgrade at all. The machine, which is used at home in my winter place for only six months a year, behaves...

A common part until you want one Yesterday, I decided to get a PC going that I'd been handed for free. It's an old Gateway server with a dual Pentium 3 motherboard, meaning it has little value, but would do for a second machine running Linux. So I went around looking for a couple of suitable...

And I think I probably do, what with all the reading over all the years, but ... I finally *actually* want to do a wireless network of this 700XL with my old Dell XPS R450. I have a cable modem, and I assume I need to hook that to a router. But where do I go from there? Do I need cards for both...

Well soon I will be retiring my Gateway G6, 333 mhz computer and getting my "new" Gateway DX430X. Really am excited as this one will be "slightly faster" (grin). The old one has worked well for me! Also the old EV700 monitor I heard so much negativityabout has provided such good service and...

I am running Vista on my computer and on numerous occasions when I right click on ie trash or some other items the sand timer just keeps on going and nothing happens. This happens many many times a day and I am getting frustrated. When I hit the ctrl alt delete I get the msg that windows...

A mediocre book which panders to Microsoft (2 Stars) As a PC Assembly book, this is modestly useful, but there are a lot of PC assembly books out there. (Incidentally, I have not found a current title as concise and well written as "PC Hardware Configuration Guide : For DOS and Solaris" by Ron...

There's an annoying "feature" with my A35-S159 (Toshiba Satellite) that I can't seem to fix without your help. When I slide the pointer across an underlined URL it will take me there without me clicking for it to do so. Does anyone else have this type notebook, and what did you do about it? ...

I cannot use the PASTE fnction within Firefox/s browser. I frequently use this because I am lazy and do not want to retype something, so I copy and paste. Non the less, I cannot PASTE because this function is grayed out. Is this normal? -- The Signa's Stress is when you wake up screaming and...

My laptop seems to not be getting power, but my adapteritself is beeping. Is that the battery or indication that the adapter is fried?

I want to change the drive on a 700X by adding another drive and transferring the data files etc. to the new drive. If I recall, when you remove the old drive you can't boot to the new drive because it does not have the boot sector on it, right? If so, how do you get the pc to boot to the new...

hello once again and greets to the group awhile back, I got my hands on a gateway RWL D0303 desktop (maybe it was KWL D0303, i have it written down two different ways for some reason) this unit does not sit upright, so to speak, but rather "lies flat". Almost like you could rest a monitor on top...

I was recently given a relatives unwanted older Dell computer carcass which had in it a 20 GB 7200 RPM Maxtor HD. I own a G-450 with a better video card and such than the Dells, but space is tight with the 13 GB 5400 drive so I would very much like to add the Maxtor to my system. I know I can just...
