My system is a year-and-a-half-old Dell Dimension 8400 running WinXP, with a Dell wireless keyboard and mouse, and is left on 24 hours a day.

Hi, I own a Dell pc and want to make use of a wireless connection that will soon be available in my house. I think that I will need to install a wireless adapter card in the pc, and wonder if this could effect the warranty of the PC (based in UK). Any thoughts?

I just got an older computer running with an AMD K-6 500 MHz. The network card that came with the computer was connected via PCI and had a little wire that ran directly to the motherboard. I've never seen this before. When I tried to swap it with my Wi-Fi PCI card the computer wouldn't boot. ...

I have a media pc, well, just a computer hooked up to my HDTV.
