My dad is using my old CPU, which is a single-core 3500+. He likes having
numerous anti-spyware, anti-virus and other utilities running, despite my
repeated warnings about them slowing the machine up.
My question, therefore, is will the dual-core 3600+ X2 2GHz processor show

I have an MS-7093 motherboad that I got with an HP PC. The HP BIOs
version is stripped all to hell, with nothing more left than the
absolute minimum settings.
Would it be possible to install the actual MSI BIOs instead of the HP

Is anyone aware of a small mid tower (16"-17") with a removable 3.5" drive
cage? I'd like something that's easy to work on in a confined space. The
CoolerMaster 330 looks interesting, but the drive cage does not seem to come
out. Cheap (low price) would also be good.

I have an Athlon 64 3500 that runs a little warmer that I would like
it to with the stock cooler. The maximum temp range for this model is
listed as 45 to 65 on the AMD website.

I have a Gigabyte 8I845GVM mobo with an Intel P4 2800.00 GHz with
onboard 845 graphics, AC'97 audio, realtek LAN. I tried overclocking
my processor, raising the clock frequency from default 100 to 108
(running Passmark Burnin test each time, verifying the reliability),

I'm looking for a cheap ($30-$35), small, Quiet heatsink/fan for
overclocking and intel oem e2180. I have an Abit IP35-e MB, and an Antec
SLK1600 case. Antec was of no help in telling me what size heatsink will
fit my case.

Ok, so's I will bore anyone that once to bother to read...
Normally, I do my major upgrading around this time of year.  However, I got
my new EVGA 780i in late December, shortly after release. My Intel Core2 Duo

I built a Vista media centre PC with the following components

INTEL PENTIUM D PROCESSOR 915 2.8Ghz
SAMSUNG 205BW 20.1" TFT MONITOR

Like the title says, my PC hangs during boot just after the Press F10 to
enter to enter Raid setup message. Once the system warms up I can reboot and
get into Windows without problems. I assume this is likely a HD problem with
one of my RAID devices? Maybe a corrupt BIOS?

Good day:
Not sure I have the right group, but here goes.
I am looking for benchmark industry standards regarding the maximum
utilization level (e.g. %) at which CPUs, memory and other components

I've been an Abit user for many years with no difficulties. But my last
board (still in use) was/is the AI7, and I kept track of the problems
reported on Abit after the time of this board (wondering if the company had
hit a turning point for the worse). I'm looking to move up but ...
