Most oem parts (except processors) come with the exact same warranty as their retail counterpart. They also come with the manaul and cd (just not necessarily some extras like games and stuff). OEM parts are bulk packed, to save on packaging. If you get an oem product without the cd or...

the mobile 2500+ because the multiplier isn't locked.

depends on the chipset, if it has an 815 chipset, it should, but may need a bios flash check with the manufacturer, they should be able to tell you the

and make sure you install everything in the correct order windows service packs chipset drivers direct x video card drivers lan drivers sound et all

you could always go with a 120gb maxtor or larger, then partition it i'd get a gig of ram, just for longevity. look at corsair, but the mushkin level 2 is performing better

never noticed it with my 4.1

when all else fails, go to the source http://www.lian-li.com/product.php?action=viewPD&prdid=1194 Product Specification: *DIMENSION:210X450X490mm(W,H,D) *Drive bays: 5x5.25", 1x3.5", 6x3.5" internal *Fan: 2 x 12CM ball bearing fans *M/B type: ATX & pentium 4 (MAX SIZE: 12"x9.6")...

it's probably the controls going out and just contact klipsch

and did you happen to unplug it from the ps/2 while the computer was still on? is the keyboard working fine? check the bios and make sure legacy usb is enabled, also get the sp1 installed for windows, that's the first thing you should have done after installing

yes, socket 478 is basically dead, they'll be a couple minor celeron based chipsets maybe, but everything is moving to the new socket with the next chipsets

um, i would definitely put atleast the fan and heatsink on it's not that much of a hastle for the protection it offers i once ran a 3.06 for 45 minutes without the thermal compound and it did okay. When i opened it (retail) i didn't realize that they didn't come with goop already on the...

i would check out klipsch my klipsch 4.1's were only 180ish, but i got them on clearance, they were being discontinued

tangent tried to promote a system called hydra that would run 4 users per machine. I've seen the plug in box, but can't remember who made it. The downfall was microsoft would require 1 license per user

is there a slot on the boards for an agp card? you could always cut your own slot

does the problem only happen when using specific programs? if it only happens on wimamp tv, then that's the source of the issue. try a reinstall if not, it could be hardware related. Run memtest for a 24hr cycle. if that passes, test the hard drive, and then it's most likely the...

right now, there's not much of a difference how ever, planning for the future, sata will be better the newer intel chipsets will have 4 sata connectors and only 1 ide connection (last i heard anyways) eventually, cd-roms will have sata also, and ide will be phased out

yes, go with the sata but you will need to have a floppy drive hooked up when you first install windows so that you can load the drivers and mushkin would be better on the memory to run in dual channel, you timings need to be 3,3,3,x or better

you don't have to install sp1 for usb 2.0 you can download usb 2.0 drivers seperate from windows update

I know compusa requires all bench tech's to be a+ certified if you're not, you can get on, and they'll pay for the test. but you're supposed to sign an agreement to work there for atleast 1 year

i have one, it rocks

yes, i've built several thousand computers with magnetic bits. never had a problem arise from the magnets

i use pc-cillian. i like the fact that it's updates are available for automatic update daily. most manufactures have new virus patterns daily, but norton only puts there auto updates out on wednesday. if you want the friday update, you have to maunually download and install it.

try replacing the batteries in the remote. i've often seen my remotes get quirky like that when the batteries are getting low

use a high purity rubbing alchohol (90% ish) or denatured alchohol and a q-tip

there's apossibility the internals of the system got too hot, and popped a capacitor. most likely, just that a cap blew, it's just one of those things that happen. I've seen them dent the top of power supplies when they go

on the L frame that's above the mainboard tray, you can cut a hole, make sure there's power supply clearance though. (a holse saw is best, just sandwich it between wood, and watch for rivets) then feed excess power cables through there, so you can hide them on the back side you can also...

not certian, but from past readings that is vinyl dye, it's designed to penetrate and absorb in the plastic there's also the krylon fusion line you can use

flash your bios, i've never honestly seen an msi mainboard without that option there's also that little reset button, while the system is posting, power should be instant off

just look at your agp slot, it's based off vlb technology

since you're only pretty confiden unplug everything from the mainboard except your lights, power and reset. pull any expansion cards but your video card, then try to boot it up.. if that fails, reseat vc, cpu and memory and try again if it's a p4, do you have the +12v 2x2 power...

get 2 sticks of memory, so you can work dual channel properly get atleast a 9200 on the VC if it's for work, probably just go with onboard sound and save money, unless you want a 5.1 setup
