    Does Cooling fan for Power supply on computers need to be on all of the time

    It doesn't have to be, but it is better if it is because you are sure that the temperature will be kept low at all times. If it turns on periodically and it stops turning on, you wouldn't be sure if it doing that because it went bad or of your computer is constantly cool.

    Linksys Router is slowing my connection speed by 7000%

    When you are getting these drops in speed, try plugging into the modem and see if you are getting the same speeds because it could be that the isp is acting up. I know you said that it wasn't before, but it is simple trouble shooting. After that, simple reboot the router and see if the speed...

    Modem/Router

    Normally you get a modem when you sign up with an isp, but you can get one separately. Most new routers will have upnp so you wouldn't have much configuring to do. As far as having a router and modem separate, that is a personal preference. Honestly, I would have them separate because it is...

    1 Mac 1 PC 1 modem how to connect them

    Was the 98SE connected to the router wirelessly or wired? Did you check to make sure that the IP address ranges were the same? Are any of them connecting to the router or is it that the 98SE computer alone isn't?

    Lappy

    Try rebooting the laptop and then hit enter on the setup file of the program you are trying to install. Sometimes when you try to double click on an installation file, you click it too many times and it trys multiple installations.

    NOT RESPONDING PROBLEMS IN WINDOWS 7

    Rajk has a point. Try uninstalling programs one by one and rebooting until you don't get any errors. Do you remember the last program you installed when the issues started?
