Static Electricity and computer hardware?
Tuesday, October 30th, 2007I was seeing videos on CNET TV, and I saw one on how to install more RAM. The guy said to discharge yourself from static electricity before touching the hardware. Every time I open my computer to add or change something, I never worry about static electricity and my computer still works fine.
How does static electricity affect the hardware?
none of the hardware works on my other computer?

Computer Hardware problems?
Thursday, October 18th, 2007Ok. I just got my new PC hardware. First, here are the specs:
-nVidia eVGA 9600 GT Super-clocked 512MB Edition
-Core 2 duo E7200 2.53 GHZ (No OCing until new mobo
-D946GZIS Intel Motherboard
-3 Gigs of 667 Ram (Soon to be 4Gigs 1066 on New Mobo)
Anyway, When I play games such as Oblivion, or Garry’s Mod (Half Life 2), It all of the sudden goes pitch black (screen) and the computer fans start spinning loudly, and fast. The sound still works but the visuals are gone.
I have Crysis and play it everything High 1360 X 768 (LCD TV) at around average 45-50 FPS.
It only crashes like this on Oblivion and Garry’s Mod. Oh and Oblivion runs at a steady 60 FPS at Maximum settings, but all of the sudden drops to 20 or chugs for no reason.
Please help.

Yeah, I check temp. They are fine. Even My hardware is pretty well ventilated, so I don’t see that as a problem.

I have drivers for everything as new as possible, newest game patches and I have 450 Watt 2 12volt rails with output of 30 amps or w/e. This graphics card asks for 400 watt assuming sully loaded compter. When I only have Graphics card, ram, CPU and 1 HDD. My SOund etc, is internal.
I love the tech advances in desktop computer hardware?
Sunday, October 14th, 2007I’m 19 years old and I have latley found a love for computer hardware. I dont understand the inner workings of processors, gpu’s, motherboards, etc. but am very interested. I would like to go to school and research computer hardware design and trying to make hardware more powerful, efficient etc. What should I focus on in school in order to recieve a well-paying career in the field of computer hardware development, building , innovation and design? What companies would I most likely work for? Thank in advance, Kyle.
ie: designing better video cards, making better cpu’s, mobos and so forth.
i had knowledge in computer hardware service and new system assembling , I am in chennai now?

Computer hardware failure? Help?
Tuesday, October 9th, 2007My computer won’t load, and everytime I try, a message saying something like a “hardware failure, please insert the windows disk” comes up. Its a vista. I tried safe mode and inserting the recovery disk but the computer begins to load but the screen just remains blank. What can I do?? I need to use it urgently! (I’m asking from another computer.)
