    Assembling Components

    I'm going to upgrade my hardware but, silly question 25 minutes of googling haven't answered... If I buy a new CPU does it come with a new socket? Or is it attached to the [new] motherboard.

    Is My Motherboard Dying?

    Have you tried re-installing, or updating your BIOS? Another possible solution is checking the contacts. Pull allllll the cards and put them back. Including the CPU. Over clocking and Temperature?

    I have a few questions... 1) If zombies can walk and eat, like all animals, why not also wee, poo and have sex like all animals too? Sex is so instinctive brain dead guys get erections. 2) When Jim did a piece on a Fox news article and said we - as a community - should shout, moan and make...
