    Do I need to change peripherals?

    Most of Gigabyte's mice are wireless, which may have interference. I prefer to have a wired mouse because I also use a KVM switch, but it's just that at the moment, my other PC is not at home.

    Do I need to change peripherals?

    So by that, I'm guessing the Logitech G500 isn't worth it at $44? Yeah, the only keyboard from OCZ is Sabre. To be honest, I don't really need extra keys on my keyboard (the programmable keys) - the current one works quite fine for my purposes (multimedia, entertainment, web, games) except the...

    Do I need to change peripherals?

    I meant by is my keyboard and mouse sufficient right now? Both are usable but have been with me for 3-5 years and right now I saw the Logitech G500 for $44 total on Best Buy (I don't know about other deals on keyboards and what keyboards are good). Should I switch my keyboard or mouse? If...

    Do I need to change peripherals?

    To start, my dell keyboard is the default USB keyboard that came with the current Dell Dimension 1100 I'm on since 2005 and stopped since 2007 or 2008 when I thought it broke but upon bringing it back for reexamination, I figured out the problem and I've been using it since last year up until...

    Computer Is Not Turning On

    Bleh, the computer is at away from my house at the moment so I really won't be able to do anything now.

    Computer Is Not Turning On

    When I try to turn it on, nothing works. None of the fans spin, no sound comes out and the only thing alive is a green LED which is the BOOT_DEVICE_LED according to my motherboard manual in the onboard LEDs section. I am taking the PC to a relative for him to analyze it this morning so I can't...

    Computer Is Not Turning On

    Okay thanks. I'm planning on giving my PC (with all the original stuff that was in it before I received the XFX Radeon HD 5850) and the video card (HD 5850) in its own box to him so he could analyze it and also clean some dust build up.

    Computer Is Not Turning On

    The seller had barely used it because he said he didn't have time to game. Besides, wouldn't a computer still be able to turn on without a video card or integrated graphics card? (Although you would be extremely limited with its uses if you wanted to do anything at all.) It's not just that...

    Computer Is Not Turning On

    It's from eBay because Newegg doesn't have reference models. I guess I should just register then, right?

    Computer Is Not Turning On

    Well, I think the parameter of the myth could be expanded to the meaning of having none or insufficient cooling as the culprit of a computer that doesn't turn on. Should I register my XFX Radeon HD 5850 for its lifetime warranty immediately/ASAP?

    Computer Is Not Turning On

    What I meant by wearing only cotton was something comfortable I would prefer to wear when at home. Also, should I register my lifetime warranty with XFX immediately or do you think I should do something else? There is a myth that is debatable between my dad's opinion and my opinion that the...

    Computer Is Not Turning On

    I put the original video card back in and it still wouldn't power up. I touched the internal metal material from time to time. I did not wear anything but cotton (I don't like wool, especially when working around electronics). I think the power button cable is plugged in. The letters are...

    Computer Is Not Turning On

    Today, I received my new video card in the mail so I decided to try and install it into my current custom computer. However, the cable management was so terrible that I had to unplug a few obstructing cables since the HD 5850 was as long as the motherboard. I don't remember which ones but I...

    AMD Phenom II x4 975

    I think AMD subtly launched the 95W Phenom II X6 1055T.
