    help : how change the external hard to internal hard

    To do this, you'll have to open the cover of the external hard drive and pull out the disk. Then you can connect it to your motherboard.

    SATA/IDE to USB 2.0 Adapter Converter Issue.

    If you connect a hard drive to the SATA controller using an adapter, it will be recognized as any hard drive. So you can install Windows just as on any other system. Concerning the safety of the motherboard, that depends on the quality of the adapter.

    Hard drive dissapeard from bios and Vista wont start up.

    Since it takes so long to boot, this means that it can access the drive. So that's definitely a broken hard drive. I'd suggest replacing your hard drive.

    SSD upgrade and capacity

    An SSD of 64 GB would only be useful to boot your system faster. You could install your OS and some applications you use often on the SSD and everything else on a mechanic hard drive.

    Can't Run External Monitor at 120 Hz

    Seems like a detection issue. Does Samsung have a software driver available for that screen. Alternatively there should be an option in Windows to choose non-supported refresh rates. But make sure you choose the correct refresh rate.

    20 watts at idle assignment

    The power consumption of a PSU will be the same regardless of the hardware configuration. What you need is a power supply that can handle at least 60 watts. The information of the idle power consumption is obsolete.

    Windows 8 Developer Preview.

    I've been playing with the consumer preview of Windows 8 for a few days now. The desktop bit looks good, but I absolutely hate the Metro bit. Why would I want to run fullscreen applications on a 27" screen for example? Waste of space. Been modifying it to my needs, so removed most of the tiles...

    If you really want to make your card quiet, you might consider using liquid cooling. But bear in mind that this is a costly solution if done properly.

    Screen goes black while typing

    It sounds more likely to be an issue with the cable running to your screen. Are you able to connect another screen to your system? If you have the same issues with that screen, then it is caused by your graphics card.

    Problem with laptop and a BenQ

    That's a limitation of your graphics card. Usually fast refresh rates only work on lower resolutions with integrated graphics solution mostly seen on laptops.

    Motherboard & Memory Compatability

    The RAM you chose and the compatible RAM types are identical, so I can't see why it wouldn't be compatible.

    core i7 idle temp check

    These temps look fine. As long as the load temperature is lower than 80C (100 is maximum allowed), there won't be an issue. The system will automatically turn itself off when the temperature is too high. Concerning the thermal paste, you could put full load on the CPU almost immediately.

    Taking a keyboard apart for a virtual reality?

    It should be possible, because you just need a switch to short the specific parts of the keyboard. But with the appropriate tools you could even use a Kinect device as a controller on your computer, you can just control the game while standing :)

    Restart explorer.exe failed, RPC thing failed to run

    Sounds like a possible malware infection. If I recall correctly, there where a few worm variants that disabled the RPC service, causing the system to reboot. Check for malware, and scan for corrupt system files as instructed on this page. Just of curiosity, why are you running video games on a...

    QuickDump PHP Tool

    Thanks for your input :) The reason why I'm using the shell_exec function is because it's the easiest way to communicate directly with the server (instead of using cgi scripts). I've never intended its use for shared hosting (mainly dedicated servers and VPS systems). I've disabled error...
