  1. Basically im getting a AGP 256MB nVidia 7600GT and my current PC definately wont handle it, its just the one that came with the computer when i first bought it, being a wimpy 230W, looking to buy a 500W PSU, but im not sure if theres anything i need to think about when buying one, learning about comps as i go along here.

     

    Is there anything in particular which i need to look out for when buying a PSU, i heard about the possibility some might not be compliant with certain motherboards, my motherboard is HP - Compaq MS-6577 Motherboard. Also browsing around some sites i noticed SATA and PCI-E connectors, where as i only have sockets for PCI, AGP and ATA harddrive i guess i need to look for Power supply with connectors for those.

     

    Any advice given will be much appreciated.

  2. You know really this is not a surprise, its not like there isnt any security flaws its jsut a case in who finds them, microsoft or some would be hacker? either way they are found and solved, no biggy, i dont and will never consider windows to be completely safe, its popularity forces it to be a obvious magnet for trouble, moving to another operating system might help now, but if that becomes more popular then security flaws there will be found too. just dont be too hard on them :P

  3. Scary little thing.

     

    Be careful with ALL attachments. :)

     

    Never open attachments from strangers. And when coming from friends, beware of them then too.

     

    ALWAYS do a virus-scan on attachments.

     

     

    Yeah definately watch out even from so called friends too, remember one of mine sent me an attachment, it turned out to be a virus, luckily it was just one for the laughter at making u screem as u think ur comp is being destroyed when nothing is really happening, but it shook me enough never to trust my friends :P

  4. i use IE7 as a secondary or even third browser, but the text seems smudged and i cant use it for too long as the lack of clarity gives me a headache, so ill stay with firefox. Anyone else think this? or is there a way in which you can improve the quality of the text?

  5. I have had this problem for a couple of months now and no idea what it is, i searched the forums but havent found any solution:

     

    The connection was reset

     

    The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

     

    * The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few

    moments.

     

    * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network

    connection.

     

    * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure

    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

     

    is this working for you? I have tried it on different browsers but still no luck. This is my favourite place to look for updates for software so any help is much appreciated :)
