    AMD PC for sale again.

    Well, it's for sale again, with some changes. This time maybe I can get rid of it. The price is a firm $250 not including S&H. I'll take Paypal, check, money order, I really don't care how you pay, as long as it's either Paypal or in US Dollars. AMD Duron 1.6ghz CPU (really nice overclocker...

    1month old AMD PC for sale

    OK. I'm sorry, everyone. Apparently, "make me an offer", is an illegal phrase here. :confused: So, for that I apologize. How's this. $300.00. Again, that's without S&H. Unless saying that's illegal too. In which case, I'm sorry again, and if it's possible I'll delete every one of my posts...

    1month old AMD PC for sale

    A little heads-up. The 375.00 price is completely negotiable. Like I said in the beginning, make me an offer. The only reason I posted the price was because I was told I had to. So, if you think my price is ludicrous, I pulled it out of the air anyway, offer what you think is fair. I...

    1month old AMD PC for sale

    But, dude, it's a Dell. :D I bought a used one for $35.00 once. Worst 35 I ever spent. Mobo was permanently fixed to the case with some kind of metal clips, the psu fried a mobo that I hooked it to, and the case felt like heavy duty aluminum foil. Honestly, the plastic side panels were...

    1month old AMD PC for sale

    Sorry about that. I'll have to think about the price for a moment. Back in a sec.

    1month old AMD PC for sale

    I'll assume Aftermath5's opinion is the one most people have, and that I won't get more than $150 for this PC. To be completely honest, it cost me $318 to build it, so there's no way I'm going to take less than half of what it's worth. I guess I'll just have to keep it for a while...

    XFX Geforce 6200 - Major Problem

    I just bought a Geforce 6200 from XFX, and everything works fine until the install program for Nvidia's drivers tells me to reboot. I reboot, then I stare at that ugly green color Win98 background. AND nothing else happens. I waited for 1 hour 21 minutes and 14 seconds, give or take a few...

    New Memory problem.

    Well, I just did the stupidest, simplest, right-under-my-noseyest thing I could think of, and for some unexplainable reason, the PC works fine now. I switched the position of the RAM sticks. PNY told me to put the largest stick closest to the CPU. So, I took that as gospel and didn't question...

    New Memory problem.

    Both sticks, new128mb and old32mb, are SDRAM. Plain old PC100mhz, 168pin, SDRAM. They should be the same, besides capacity and age. Yes, the PNY stick is brand new, but it says it is the same type as the old 32mb stick that's in the PC now. I tried the new RAM in my hacked up Dell Dimension...

    New Memory problem.

    Hey. I just bought 128mb of PNY SDRAM. Every time I try to start the PC, nothing happens. No post, no nothing. Just a black screen. Actually, no screen at all. The monitor just says that there's no input or something to that effect. Then, when I put the old 32mb stick back in and restart...

    WinXP Updates

    I have an illegitimate copy of what I think is the original build of XP on a PC I just bought. Obviously I'm having problems getting updates. For instance, I can't get them at all from M$'s website. I have to resort to 3rd party dl sites. That works well, until I try to get a service pack. The...

    Dual Channel or regular DDR

    Thanks. That cleared up a few things. I was told that dual channel memory was different than plain DDR. I guess I shouldn't trust a sales person. Thanks again.

    Dual Channel or regular DDR

    Hey, I'm currently building a moderatley powered system with an AMD 1.6ghz Duron(definately will be overclocked:D). It's sitting in an ATX EpOX mobo with 2 DDR RAM slots. It says it runs dual channel memory. I know the difference between plain DDR and dual channel DDR, but I don't know if I...

    Somethings smells fishy here.

    I've used and loved computers since I was 5 and exploring DOS on an IBM BASIC, but I've just recently gotten into building them. I've noticed that the pin count on processors has gone up significantly since the early ones. Now, this may just be me, but isn't the logic behind digital things...
