Any modern graphics card will need a new PSU, of at least 300W. Anything above a midrange card will be limited by the CPU. I suggest, if you get a...
I have no idea why you still run IE6, when the latest versions of Opera, for example, work fully on 98 (and I run Opera on 98) ;)
Ah :P Cheat! :D
True, US parts are always cheaper. I specced up a combo PC, and the price it cost me, would be the same as buying the CPU and PSU over here, and...
I don't know if you're from the UK, but: Would you consider these budget brands? Akasa 500W OCZ Technology 600W Akasa 600W Zalman 600W...
500W would be more than enough I think.
Ah, I'm assuming too much that they keep up with full PC speeds. My bad :)
Is that everything at full load though? I know my 300W PSU is tight, but there's very little I can do until I get the next stage of parts.
But not only that, it's also far too slow, aren't 90% of laptop drives 7200 rpm, and a couple are 10000 rpm, or are all 10000 rpm drives 3.5" jobbies?
No, but I can tell you from experience, if the USB ports aren't getting quite enough power (my experience was with a USB keyboard and mouse...
Alicia, just because Sims 1, which is a much older game, ran on the PC, you can't expect Sims 2 to work. Unfortunately, as Pete described, unless...
A Pentium 4 will be more than enough to run anything under 98, and besides, you're always going to be held back by the 512 MB of RAM issue, as the...
So by the sounds of the things, it's a complete farce?
Have you thought about the fact that your graphics card, which sounds like a built-in jobby, may be incompatible? I know that this usually causes...
430W will barely make a difference. I think you need a 500W PSU to be safe at least. ;)
Well, I've got a theory that it's to do with the way that some banner ads load - it doesn't always happen, but I can usually tell if it will...
I can't see how putting it into hibernate would cause that to happen. Matt's suggestions seem far more plausible to me.
Indeed, I'm fairly sure even Dell don't cripple it that badly, though I'll never work out why they don't have temperature readings in the BIOS,...
5:4? Never seen that, though I have seen resolutions that work out as that... :p 600x480 is 5:4, but who uses that any more? :D
Put the newer one in: if the old motherboard was the cause of the graphics card breaking, and it breaks this one, it may not be covered under...
Separate names with a comma.
