Thanks for the info!

I believe there is a free software that allows you to pick up a download from where you left it if your connection or PC fail you. Any idea which one it is? Or, if there are many, which one is the best one. Thanx

Solved it (DOH!) Erm, it was just that the monitor cable wasn't fully plugged. sorry!

I'm on Windows XP and was trying to install iTunes when my screen suddenly went all blueish/greenish. There are no reds or whites in there at all. Anyone's got any idea why this may have happened and how I could solve it? Thanks

Thanks! This is a very silly question, I know, but could you explain to me what sort of difference there is in terms of every day performance between the two chips? I'm trying to learn and this sounds pretty important!

Thanks :) To be honest, we've run the modelling software on much lesser systems but I see your point. I guess more RAM would allow us to run more applications at the same time.

New system - comments please b4 i buy! After being harrassed by Praetor ;) to get a system built rather than buy a ready-made one, I've now got the following spec from a shop (for $1,000 - they're building it for me). I don't do any gaming, this is mainly for web-design, music/movies...

I've got a spec for a built system which I can get for $1K. I'm posting it into a new thread :)

Nope, no gaming. £650 ($1000) Thanks for the suggestion :)

OK. We're both sitting here waiting for advice. Say you go into this site: http://www.pcwcomponentcentre.co.uk, which components would you choose? Where do you start? Is there a list of all the things we should be looking for? Our minimum requirements (and any suggestions are welcome of...

Thanks for everything. You've now half-convinced me to try and build my own PC. I'm nervous though cos I'm such a newbie! HELP!!!!!!!! :eek:

Does anyone have an opinion on HP customer service? Everyone's been praising Dell but the PC is about $300 more expensive.

Hi. Thanks for this. One thing you should know is that I'm not a gamer, I've never used the computer to play a game. What I do do, however, is web-design with photoshop. I also download a lot of music although I don't really use the PC to listen to it. Does that help at all? x

Oh dear! :( That's not good. What about that HP system then that was in my original message? Is HP an OEM? Click here for full HP T645UK Spec The RAM is DDR-SDRAM, btw. I called them to ask. Any comments? I can buy this system and an 17" LG TFT monitor (is it any good?) for around...

OK, here's the slightly revised spec. It'll cost £1,068 (around $1800?) DELL P4 HT 520 (2.80GHz, 800 MHz fsb, 1MB cache) 1024 MB dual channel DDR2 400 MHz 160GB (7200rpm)Serial ATA HD with 8MB DataBurst cache Video card: 128MB PCI-Express ATI Radeon X300SE with TVout and DVI 15" flat...

You're right, just me being dumb :o Great! Thanks :)

Well, you don't have to buy in order to customize a PC over the internet. You just go into their website and do it and then it comes up with the price - if you're happy with your selection you proceed with the purchase. Otherwise, if you're like me, you come into this forum and get really...

Erm, sorry, I meant "customized" :o

Thanks! Thank you both very much. The spec I gave you for Dell was the configured model. I can actually add a sound card but that takes the PC to an extra $200.
