    All sorts of red lights on my mobo

    Mobo is an ASUS P8Z77-V I’m putting this in the mobo section because there are multiple red lights. First off, my computer wouldn’t boot. It would turn on, but nothing on the screen. Nothing. No signal detected. I opened the case and saw a red light...under it it says “vga_led” so I thought...

    Can't download anything remotely Microsoft-related on Win 7

    Trying to fix my mom's laptop after she dropped it. Got a new hard drive and installed Win 7 on it, then I figured I better do some Windows Updates...can't do it. It just updates forever, never finds anything. I try to update Microsoft Security Essentials...can't even do that! So finally I...

    Windows can't update & even manual attempts of installing .Net4 don't work

    I can only really help you by saying I have the exact same problem. I can't get any Windows Updates for the life of me on my Mom's Windows 7 laptop. I've let it sit for hours a couple times now and it just throws an error saying it's my internet connection, yet on my Windows 10 PC that's on the...

    Is 500w enough for this build???

    This is my first build and as much as possible I want to do everything right. I already bought the case (Antec 900) the mobo and the ram. I've put my setup into a PSU calculator and got a number around 440w. I'm thinking this PSU from Enermax will do nicely, but I'm not sure here are my specs...

    A mobo question...

    This is the skinny. I don't really have a lot of cash to throw around so I'm trying to minimize in the areas I can. I'm not getting the bleeding edge, rather one or two rungs down. 8800 GTS (gotta have DX10,right?)and Core 2 Duo E6600 are the only two things I'm set on. The mobo is a tricky...

    some good heater cores?

    Sup everyone, this is my very first post on this forum. woot! Anyway, I'm going to build a new water cooled system and was going to use a HWlabs BI radiator, but after reading the introduction to this forum I thought it might be cool to get a heater core (apparently they’re cheaper and more...
