So I'm having some problems with my Antec Three hundred case, in particular the front usb. Whenever I plug in a flash drive, usb receiver, etc. if I accidentally bump both the metal of the case and the usb port, the computer will crash, I'm guessing due to a power short. I do not want this to...

I'm currently running a laptop with a celeron m 1.4ghz, looking to upgrade to a Pentium M for battery life for speedstep. I could get a 1.4 or 1.5 P M for super cheap, like $45, but is it worth it compared to spending around $100 for about a P M 1.7 or the new 1.73ghz. How much performance...

Well I had myself a Asus A2H laptop for the last few months, wasn't really practical for classes. Used a Pentium 4 2.8ghz that sucked the power, and the 15.0" screen was a bit clunky, it had quite a bit of weight, pretty well it wasn't suited for being extremely mobile. So i'm looking for a...

I've currently got an Asus A2H Laptop with a P4 2.8ghz processor. Runs close to 2hours just browsing, not to much to brag about. That is the beefest processor the laptop supports, i'm assuming there would be no battery life game from just downgrading to a different P4 chip of the same socket...
