Well I don't know how much she reboots it or anything, but it's rarely off ever--and password protected, so couldn't turn it off even if I wanted to lol..so end up just leaving it. She did the same with her old PC as well, that was running Windows 98SE. Ok Looked in my case--and couldn't...

Well I leave it on to do virus scans some nights, spyware, downloads, or just to be available in the morning when I wake up...sometimes it goes into suspend overnight if nothing else is planned that night--my sister's left her's on for over 2 1/2 years.. Plus I heard from a few friends in...

Well I will take a look in there later on sometime, and get the brand/model of the Power Supply--as for any sufficent upgrading, i am not planning to in the future, new floppy drive, and new dvd-burner, possibly new video card in the future, but at this time, not gonna upgrade.

Re: Power Supply Questioon I'm not completely sure either, I think he told me it had 350 Watt, but i'm not sure if that's what's in there or not, next time I open the case to replace floppy drive or install rounded cables, i'll take a look at Power Supply. It runs well otherwise, it runs Half...

Re: Power Supply Questioon My CPU is AMD Sempron 2600 Palermo Core 1.61 Ghz 64bit. This Was replaced along with my old Motherboard for free--so I couldn't really complain--Replaced parts Case/PSU Motherboard CPU Ram VIdeo Card The problem with old board was that ram slots were bad...

Re: Power Supply Questioon I got my Motherboard Replaced under warranty last November, and got a new Case, and Power supply, local shop said it's perfect for what I use, been leaving it on 24/7 lately--unknown what brand the supply in here is though, they said 350 watt was fine for what I do...

Yeah I decided not to get a Floppy/Card reader combo, and just get the floppy alone, and I don't Have serial ata drivers slipstreamed at all into my Windows XP CD, don't even have Serial ATA hard drive yet, but I plan on getting one when I eventually replace 60gb hard drive from 2001.

Thank you Kcnychief, since my Case is beige, I only have to Pay $7.99 plus shipping for that Beige One--same brand, just different color. So I'll wait and get that then. Well $7.99 thru New Egg lol, Officemax wants $23.99 for internal Sony Floppy drive.

There is some local PC shops, and cheapest local floppy i can find around, is $23.99 (Sony) if it's in stock when I go to local store to buy it, if not I"ll just get whatever else is there, and live with it. If it was any other drive, I would've replaced it immediately--or my Monitor...

Very True, and I will determine which is the best way to go when I'm ready to buy for sure, am not rushing to buy, since this drive is not an emergency replacement like a hard drive would be if that died, or CD-Burner(which is gonna be replaced with DVD Writer when it does die). will research...

I may just get a standard floppy, I hard have a need for a card reader, but friend thought a card reader would be best..but I sorta don't think so, the one machine we have a card reader on, I don't even use it..but I do use floppy from time to time, for bios upgrades, and small file storage.

Hi I have a question regarding my floppy drive--it recently died. Should i replace with Standard floppy or Combo Card Reader/Floppy. Any advice is appreciated.

Well this time I"m gonna give Firefox a long try, and make sure PC stays running good that's for sure, I don't want the problems like I had before, couldn't even game, or do anything.

Well I may give Firefox another shot possibly...I know the first time I tried it, didn't like it at all, but maybe I'll give it a longer try this time, 30 days before I possibly remove it or keep it in. It's been a hectic few months with this PC, why I haven't posted in so long, prior...

I've tried this the time I used Firefox for a short while on here, but then I ended up going back to IE, I couldn't get used to firefox, plus browsing seemed slow to me, even though I have 1gb of ram, and AMD Sempron 2600+ 64bit Processor, yet it still seemed slow. I guess I'm gonna be...
