    Upgrading from one to two hard drives

    Yes that is possible. Hard drives and optical drives use the same cables for power and data. You do need to make sure that the case has a place to mount that additional hard drive, otherwise you'll have to be creative :)

    Macbook mini-DVI adapter not working with DVI LCD

    The adapter you have is the correct one. Check if it works with a lower screen resolution and the adapter is connected properly. If that fails, it might indicate that the adapter is faulty.

    AMD Phenom II X2 560 or the 565 CPU

    You won't (or barely) notice the difference to be honest :)

    What do you think about the new iPad?

    Then main reason why I'm buying it is the retina display. Reading will be very comfortable (can actually see the pixels in the iPad 2).

    Quick question: is VGA or a DVI-to-HDMI converter better?

    I would suggest the DVI-D adapter. You'll get much better quality because the signal is already digital from its source. VGA outputs an analog signal, which results in poor quality (especially in HD resolution). I'm not even sure if VGA supports HD in the first place.

    CPU goes to 100% when using internet, dl speed speed progressively declines

    An interrupt is a signal from a device in your system that is asking the attention of your CPU. This could be an ethernet adapter, a sound card or a graphics card. In this case it simply means that your network adapter is transferring data.

    [Quick!] Need network adapter advice

    The card is a PCI Express x1, so that should be fine (as long as one of them is not being used on your motherboard).

    Welcome to HWF :) I would suggest the Logitech system, they have great audio quality for the price.

    [Quick!] Need network adapter advice

    This network adapter looks just fine, but you do need to make sure that your motherboard has a free PCI-Express (not PCI) available.

    HP laptop screen flickering and strange colours

    If it was caused by the graphics card, you'd get the same issue with an external display. If the inverter would be faulty, you wouldn't get any image on the screen. If you close and open the lid a bit, does it start to flicker? This issue is often caused by a broken ribbon cable, as it is moved...

    Hard drive boot problems after graphics card upgrade? help!!

    That's correct. Could you make sure that the cables are still connected properly to the hard drive and the motherboard? Are you able to try a different data cable for your hard drive?

    USB drive trouble

    Looks like the TOC table on the device is corrupt. Your best bet is formatting the USB drive.

    Hard drive boot problems after graphics card upgrade? help!!

    If you put back the old graphics card, does it work fine then? In that case it's most likely to be caused by insufficient power from the power supply (the graphics card consumes so much power that it can't power up the drives correctly).
