    7600GT overheating?

    Okay, its just as soon as I try and run ANY type of program, whether it be a game or word document, the fan starts spinning VERY loudly. I don't lose any performance, my computer still runs fine. But it is SOO loud that I'm just afraid to let it run anymore because it does not sound healthy...

    7600GT overheating?

    Hello everyone! Alright, so lately my computer has been running VERY loud...I know its from a fan or something. I poked my head inside my computer case when it was running and realized that the most noise was coming from my video card, which is an Nvidia GeForce 7600GT. I believe what is...

    Hello everyone! My friends and I set up a wireless network and I am having trouble connecting to it. He is not broadcasting the network, so I went to manually connect to the router and entered in all the information to bring it up. I cannot get my computer to locate the network, and don't...

    Obscene sounds at startup

    I left my computer on and my friends installed something where every time i boot up my computer, there is some very obscene sounds that play and I have no idea how to get rid of them. There is no program that starts up (unless it's hidden) so it just automatically starts playing somehow. Any...

    Cannot Locate Router

    I do not know much about the router. I am in a college dorm room, and my neighbors next door have a wireless router. We are not supposed to have them, so he made it hidden and gave me the password to access it. I just can't pull it up, even if I try and add it manually. My roommate got it...

    Monitor?!?

    Hey...I have my new desktop sitting here with no monitor. I also have a laptop, and was wondering if it's in anyway possible to connect my desktop to the laptop monitor. I don't want to buy a monitor but if I have to I will. I've never seen this done so I'm guessing it's not possible. Just...

    New Desktop

    Do I necessarily need heat spreaders?? I honestly don't even know what they do. Also...i don't need 250 gigs of storage. I could never fill that up if I tried.

    New Desktop

    No...I'm not going to get rid of the p4 and the mobo. That will stay. It's more than sufficient for what I need it for. I just wanted to make sure all the hardware I want to buy is compatible or if there are better options for the price.

    New Desktop

    Hey guys! This past weekend I received an Intel P4 Processor 550 (3.4GHz, 800MHz FSB, 1 MB L2 Cache) and an Intel Desktop Board D915PBL. I got these items for free from a buddy of mine, so I want to put it to use. I don't have any other parts to build this desktop, but here's what I'm...
