    What size Power Supply should I get?

    ...and I said if the PSU is over 7 years old it should be replaced. A PSU won't be a factor with a VM. A VM is not going to magically pull in tons of amps. It's a driver conflict with the guest and host. That's what I'm thinking.

    What size Power Supply should I get?

    I highly doubt it's the damn PSU. You have a driver conflict with the VM and your host. It's causing the shut down. I can bet 50 smackers that is the case. That PSU should be of high quality. Never the less, if the PSU is about 7 years old it should be replaced. What VM software are you using...

    You're probably better off parting it out for eBay, or list on this forum and other computer forums.

    Wireless cameras

    You can get indoor WIFI dome cameras at Amazon, but the reviews on them are all mixed. I don't have experience in any of these. I thought Amcrest was good, but according to fakespot.com the company grade is less than stellar. You would access the camera via a smartphone or tablet.I think Blue...

    Can i put a gtx 750 ti in a Dell OptiPlex 3050MT.

    It looks like it's small form factor, meaning you'll need a small form factor GPU. To make matters worse, you'll need an adequate PSU upgrade to handle a new GPU. I'd steer clear of OEM computers and just buy something else pre-built or buy the parts and put it togather or have a computer shop...

    Do I need to replace my hard drive?

    You shouldn't use sleep mode or hibernation. I have read many, many threads on forums all over the Internet with people using sleep or hibernation mode having issues. You can schedule a disk check on the drive. Go to the run command, type in CMD. Enter chkdsk /f

    Should I buy a CPU based on 1151?

    Prepar3d, while it has some optimized code is still largely CPU driven and mostly single threaded. So you'll want a CPU with the highest single thread capability. If you're budget for a CPU is $650, then I'd consider an i7 8086k. Or an i7 8700k.

    Should I buy a CPU based on 1151?

    I use an i5 6600k LGA 1151 in FSX and it performs well. Granted you can't crank the settings up and expect great performance no matter the CPU, especially with a lot of add-ons. FS is largely CPU dependent. If you plan on keeping your computer for a while, it may be worthwhile to invest in a...

    Backing up computer?

    Here's what I use and recommend. I use AOMEI Backupper which is a straight forward cloning program. Buy yourself an USB external hard drive. Plug it into the computer. Fire up AOMEI. Chose the source as your computer, chose the destination as your external hard drive. Skip sector by sector, you...

    No more support for Vista - advice please?

    Don't let this crap that just because you can't update a computer make you think you're geeting hacked and malware. I don't even use updates, and I've never been "hacked" or gotten any malware. I even run XP on a netbook that's on 24/7 running PhoneTray, a FTP server and a Teamspeak sever. It's...

    Good media player for podcasts (reliable resume function, clear playlist, hotkeys)

    The podcasts I've listed to were all hosted at the webpage, so I'm not too sure about streaming them into a media player. I use VLC and it may in fact have all the options you desire, not sure about the save playlist feature you want though. It may have that feature. Here's a whole freeware...

    Need small camera that can broadcast video to my home PC monitor.

    You pretty much took the words right out of my mouth: Skype. There are a number of other "Apps" as they call them for smart devices that will do the same thing, but Skype would probably be your best bet. As to what kind of smart device you should use really doesn't matter. The cameras in each...

    I need some help to detect a background program

    If you use my Fav program Autoruns you can look to see what is all running at boot up and what could potentially be causing the hang up. But you need to be extra carful as to what you disable and you don't want to delete something you know nothing about. I warned you...
