Realistically you will want to buy a gaming laptop which has a decent graphics card, good amount of ram and a multi-threading CPU such as the intel i7 as it helps with performance a lot when streaming using programs such as OBS or Xsplit. An SSD will help a bit as well, but isn't particularly...

Some monitors actually have a power button lockout feature, for example my work monitor: HP w2338h has this feature and can be enabled via the menu options on the monitor. it really depends on your particular model.

Ethernet over Power can be better then wireless in some situations but it depends completely on the wiring in the building (age of the building?), the distance between the two EoP adapters and the power circuit between the two EoP adapters. You can always buy or borrow a pair of adapters and...

I had a read across multiple forums for you, and apparently it effects a few people, one solution (which, imo, is completely ridiculous, but worked) is to reinstall windows :S. There was also mention to use readyboost, which again, to me, is kinda useless, but atleast there's no harm in trying...

If you don't play with administrator privileges, can you go back and play again? or is it stuck now?

Some installed protection/cleaning programs can cause this to happen when you restart your computer. Do you use CCCleaner or something alike?

If it's not that reliable, i'd probably just turn off Windows Updates.

By comparison, the bottom one with the fan in the middle appears to be larger, so it may be better for cooling.

Don't worry too much about this, just turn everything off, pull the plug out, and discharge the power. DVD/CD Roms electrical circuitry is covered in a case , so they aren't easily damaged from electrical surges from your body.

That definetly sounds odd, perhaps a program is interfering with the systems volume permanetely keeping it muted. Or it could be a hardware issue, you should try plugging in a USB headset to see if the sound is consistent on the USB sound hardware aswell.

My vote would go towards the Toshiba laptop, slightly larger screen and better graphics performance, however it is entirely up to you.

That and some applications and games won't be supported by a 64-bit operating system.

Check your sound settings in control panel, make sure the correct output device is selected.

Your PSU only being 400W restricts you a lot, I would recommend a Nvidia GTS 250 but the minimum PSU requirements is 450W :S.

From further in your post, I'm assuming you're referring to heat rather then CPU usage. If you have cleaned your CPU fan, then make sure when you turn your computer on that the fan is spinning properly. There is also a possibility that you may need to re-apply thermal paste to the CPU. There...

Well according to the television it has a VGA input, your laptop also has one, so you could try connecting via a VGA cable.

From 180 fps to 544 fps - How far did you overclock your card to reach that much of a difference!?

The Radeon has much more power then the 8500GT if however you were to say the 8600GT then I would choose that over the Radeon.

Happens a lot, either the floppy disc is dead or the drive is dirty and/or dead.
