I havent been in the hardware game since 2003. I'd like to know if all recent (within 2010) AMD motherboards (AM3) and AMD processors now support virtualization. The newegg ad's often don't state it and neither does google or the ASUS site. I'm assuming this is because its an industry...

I want to be able to use acronis for the purpose of backing up multiple family computers. When doing a full backup or incremental backup of my system which is about 20gb as of right now (really basic) It still takes about 2 hours or so. Does acronis always take this much time to backup? I...

I wanted to see what other options there are besides imaging software. If a computer is already running slower than it should and you do an image, it will still run slow. Do you all recommend any registry cleaning software?

I have been looking at sites to try and figure out how imaging works. I understand that it takes a copy of your drive so if something went wrong, it would restore it back to its original state. But my question is how does it work? Lets say I have one 40GB drive that holds my OS and a second...

I want to build a file storage system in windows xp. How does raid work and why have I heard good things about raid for storage systems? I'm looking for about 500gb of storage.

Hello all, I have a fairly new p4 Dell that has empty bays for extra hard drives. I was wondering if it would be possible for me to add 2 additional drives to make a file storage computer. How would I go about adding these hard drives?

With programs like Ghost and Acronis True Image, can you image a computer with two hard drives? How do the programs work? Do they burn a single file that can be burned to dvd for backup? If the system failed would you need to install a new os then run the image or does it save all the content?

My Toshiba Laptop (after recently being formatted) now shuts down after I unplug the AC adapter. The computer only runs when the power is plugged in. I used the original restore disk, any ideas???
