The jack detection works by checking impedance on the line by sound drivers, The problem might be coming from loose front header. So I suggest to reattach front header line from motherboard. Also make sure your HD audio/ AC97 header is matched with software settings as they both have different...

Well don't salvage old laptop, instead use it as portable entertainment device or use it for remote desktop. Possibilities are endless as a thin client. You can also use it for internet browsing and light weight stuff or even as backup computer. Technically it's true,you can only use HDD with...

Probably GPU is getting too hot. So it's throttling clock speed to cool it and then again running at full speed. Check GPU temperatures in HWMonitor or with GPU-Z and confirm it. If that's the case then you need better ventilation or better GPU profile in order to cool it down during gaming...

check your router settings, try google's public DNS 8.8.8.8 , 8.8.4.4 May be your ISP's DNS are not working or having problems pointing hosts. Also make sure you are not behind any proxy. idk about flash problem, I'm not ios user but I think if you don't get connection it's suppose to show some...

It requires minimum 500W PSU with 2x 6Pin connectors. As long as your got those you don't have to worry about anymore unless if you wanna overclock it, get better PSU.

Does your card have native HDMI output or are you converting it form DVI? If it's DVI conversion then it will never contain any audio signals, but if you have native port You might wanna set HDMI audio as default output device in your sound properties. I own sparkle 9400GT, it doesn't have HDMI.

Well I'm glad you found it. In most cases malware don't declare themselves that they are present in your system, otherwise you'll notice it and remove then immediately. It was probably a miner program bundled with some download or installer. Those programs really squeeze up every last processing...

Possible Bitcoin miner program running in background, there's no better explanation then this. Try to clean up your computer with some antivirus or malware tool. I'd recommend Microsoft's security essential for light weight protection, however you can go for another tool. You can find it here...

I personally prefer desktop over laptop. As a programmer yes it's a default choice, when running bunch of servers on machine for testing along with browser and IDE's. I feel laptops are good at these things: 1) Travel 2) Entertainment 3) To do everyday tasks i.e. web and light gaming 4) Office...

Try again and share results, testing once won't solve problem. If the CPU is dead you probably wanna put it under warranty, after testing we can conclude CPU is dead, although we cannot be sure if pins are damaged or not right now in that case you can out of luck for replacement. If it does...

Removing CPU was a big mistake at first place, well you sure it look normal? have you tried again? by putting in in order as I said earlier? Once you install CPU you shouldn't move it unless you wanna replace it. It makes a lot hard to diagnose system when people does that.

In order to let it post something, the CPU should be in place. First put CPU back in place, make sure you haven't damage the pins in doing so. Then turn on PC. Now It should do nothing , wait for sometime and turn it off, that way internal settings will reset automatically. Now put One RAM...

Okay make sure you have connected 24 PIN ATX power and 4 or 6 pin ATX supply to motherboard. the 4/6 Pin connector goes near CPU. If it isn't connected board wont even start. Now everything should just post or your board is dead(80% chances are it is). Inspect it if there's any capacitor blown...
