I can agree on the motherboard problem.... I had one that just didn't seem to be compatable with my GeForce 4 Ti4200 (I guess other people had the same problem). It would lock the system in a blue screen in Windows XP, which under normal circumstances was almost non-existent for me. At one point, it completely crashed when I was playing Clive Barker's Undying... and completely corrupted the hard drive to the point of it was smoking when I turned the computer on.... And it wasn't the hard drive's fault, because it was the third one that went out on me with that system. I later got an ATI Radeon x800 Pro, and haven't had any problems since  *knock on wood*

Your first computer?
Old school PC systems, what was your first!? (66) I remember my first PC. We had a Tandy 1000 EX, and it ran off of 256k memory. We had an old green
grey black and white monitor that ran louder than any other appliance! Everything was MSDOS, and if
it weren't for preprogrammed games, we would run them from the DOS prompt. I guess it was
pretty reliable, but the newer systems at the time were all for play, and my parents thought it was
best to get some other usage out of it. We did a lot of Basic programming, but we used to play
King's Quest and RPG games like that back then. At school, we began to play wit....

Computer Ups & Voltage Regulator Problems

minutes of power during a blackout. This is more of an issue than for most people, as here we have
an average of 8 power cuts a day during the 8 or 9 months of summer weather. The problem is that my
UPS doesn't really help any, because in a power cut it will go off as well for a second, and
then it comes back to life, but in that second my computer has gone off, and even tho....

Sub $130 Computer
HCL just launched the 'peoples' PC (2) Rally an amazing development. HCL Infosystems, an indian firm has woken up to the fact that there
are 1.02 billion people living in India alone. So what do they figure - computers in India cost
anywhere from $1000 onwards and people in India (the general middle class - the major chunk of the
buying populace earn between $200 to $300 a month. So it becomes a severely ponderable task for
anyone to go out to the market and just pick up a PC, since it would involve months of saving and
sacrificing other requirements. Agreed that, while the standard of living in india is dram....
