If I increase my memory from 512 to 1gb, how much of a performance increase will I see. I mainly surf, word process, digital photos, excel, and light graphic work such as greeting cards, stationery. ~k

I have a new Inspiron 6000 with the ATI x300 video card. I am trying to put it into "clone mode" to copy the desktop onto the s-video port. I can't find a switch, or a checkbox, or anything to do this. Does anyone know how to put this into "clone mode." Thanks Loki

Just purchased a Latitude C610 from DFS. No OS. Plan to install W2K and would like to add wireless. I have two questions. First any known problems I might run into installing win 2K on this machine. Second, I know this model does not have internal wireless option (think the D series is needed...

I'm getting a new Dell Dimension 9100 Desktop system. I'm using it with special equipment that needs the 25 pin printer port and the 9 pin serial port which neither port is on this computer. I see numerous posts on docking stations but all seem to be referring to laptop computers. Any...

Friend has a 4550 and the fans blow pretty much full blast. We've opened the case and blown it out. Not much not dust inside and didn't seem to make much of a difference. The air blowing out of the back isn't hot or anything, feels cool in fact. Any ideas?

Leythos is correct. While you achieve theoretically faster throughput, you are unlikely to notice the difference. And in any case, that cache is only one of many variables that affects the overall speed of your computer. On the other hand, who knows what demands software of the future will...

hey does anyone know how well the dell dem 3000 works cause i'm thinking of getting one.

I've been looking at the new Dimension, in particular the 5100c and 9100 Pentium D machines. (The 5100c is only offered with Pentium D at the small business section.) I understand these machines use the new BTX cases. Has anybody had any real-world experience with one of these? Are the noise levels...

I recently purchased a 2001FP monitor from ebay but it arrived without a power supply, and apparently Dell are not in the habit of handing them out except as replacements for dead units (which begs the question of what happened to the original one). The seller is very reputable and has offered me...

I am looking for the PIN layout of the Dell Precision Workstation 670 connectors on the motherboard. I have the pinout from the 650 but they aren't the same. Please help. Harrie

Well I finally found a slick enough deal on the 2005FPW and hope to have it by the end of this week. I intend to use it for TV & video games in addition to its standard monitor usage. I read on a review from anandtech that since it's a non-standard aspect ratio, HD content from set-top boxes...

I have an older Diminsion 2100 which has recently died. When I push the power switch, nothing happens (no fans, no lights, etc.) I tried a new power supply but that did not help. Also, I bypassed the switch, and that didn't help. I do notice a small light on the motherboard which comes on when...
