'Eh, okay, so ummmm, where can I find me a copy of the Windows XP software... and how hard is it to add it to an CD? Just take the files and copy to the CD? Also, is there any "keys" thats I need to...

As sad as it is, no, I don't have ANY Windows XP disks lying around, I would buy OEM, but its expensive in a way. Hell, do you think eBay could help me in this cause (of finding a cheap Windows XP...

Okay, my computer comes on and everything and displays well, like it shows the the eMachines (the maker of the PC) screen and then it freezes up. Of course the eMachines page is the very screen to...

I only want the best, so gimme something, TERRIFIC.

nol, but my pc is from 2002, i doubt it does in my opinion

well, I just might as well get a whole new pc then.

alright, by the look of this, I have seen in Everest that PCI Slots 1, 2 and 3 are PCI Type. I'll still check the inside of the PC, but what kind of graphics cards are good and can fit into a PCI...

Hmmmmm, alright, well tonight sometime I will take a look through my PC and see whats up.

Alright thanks, what kind of mobo is that because it looks cool. Anyway, thanks for the help and I'll check the PC later when I get out of school.

No, everything is alright, its just thre graphics card I take it, I seen a cheap one at Wal*Mart (Asylum 256MB GeForce FX 5200) for $110, is that good enough for now and would it come with a standard...

:D yupperz yup

Thanks guys, very helpful, and yes it is 11X so great guessing.

Are you positive, I'll trust you pal.

I know, but EVEREST says its 100MHz FSB and 1100MHz CPU Clock Speed. Which one is the 800MHz applying too?

I have a really deep question, I hope this is not bad. But I want The Sims 2, and my CPU FSB is 100MHz, it says it needs a 800MHz processor, BUT my CPU Clock says 1100MHz, will it work on my PC?

Nothing is wrong with my PC, I just need simple instructions on how to find my System Information.

I was just wondering, how can I find out my system information, like the Processor speed (GHz and MHz) and all of that besides the Run >> DxDiag

'Em, gimme a few minutes to catch up here

A motherboard that fits AMD and Intel, hmmmmmm, anybody wanna throw a predicted price at me on how much it would cost?

'Em, make sure you have a PC Builders Kit, contains various tools, including a static resistance wrist band, keeps from having static transferred to your PSU and maybe mess something up.

Alright, cool, I am about to go setup for DHS Forum release at 12 am.

Alright thanks, so lets see, I need to replace with a new video card. The 2 fans are too loud to reviews. And the motherboard is good to set for SATA RAID, right?

Alright, here is what I have lined up so far for right now. Leave your comments and discuss what you think of it in this topic too. Recommendations may also be listed.

X-Blade Gaming PC Case (PSU...

I would get the highest rated one, but its too expensive, I could buy a whole new PC with that much money.

Yea true, I need a new video card, for this darned The Sims 2 game. Whenever I try and install the game, it doesnt autorun and it doesnt manually Run >> D:/RUN either. Stupid thing.

The price of Intel P4 Extreme Editions just makes me wanna cry :sad:

What, alright, so you say. AMD is nothing but piece of trash, in gaming wise. Media is what its great for.

Well, I got speeding through it, and really, media type stuff is more AMD, Intel is said to be a better investment into a gaming PC.

I would get an 3.6GHz but so much for the high price.

I...

What are they going to donate to me for though. Hmmmmm, I am trying to get my teen site online which will be subscription based only, plus the freelance work I am doing is for one of them PCs.

Plus, another thing is that you have to be enrolled on their credit card thing to be able to pay monthly, which was my only option, but I am only 16 and cannot get their credit card. Anyway, I would...

Sounds like something that has been overclocked from 3.6GHz, stupid thing is that their prices are expensive. Another place is http://www.go-l.com and they have a desktop pc with 6GHz, now that is...

Alright, I was planning to construct a gaming PC to be used for gaming mostly and some media (like Photoshop 7 and such.)

I planned out a guide below on what I want to put inside of it,...
