Well, based on what I have learned here and through my online research, I don't think it will be worth the expense and effort to replace my motherboard. However, I really don't want to spend much mon

We've owned two dells. One new tower some years ago. It crapped out less than a month after the warranty expired**. I also bought a refurbed dell laptop off of evilbay for my oldest to use in college

Hey Jim, I'm still a Windoze XP guy. Yeah, it's 11 years old, but it's fast, does everything I need, and I have a legit license for it on the dozen or so machines I take care of. Don't know anyone th

Thanks everyone. I have borrowed an adequate box, so I have a little time and will keep researching. As for building my own, I have considered this before; maybe now is the time. I will do a little r

Our office uses refurb Dells exclusively. If you go that route, I cannot recommend enough that you buy the highest level of warranty they'll sell you--the one where a tech comes to you that day to fi

I was in the computer industry for over 20 years. I can say that Dell machines are the last thing I would EVER purchase. Every company I worked for switch from Dells to HPs. Dells are way overpriced

Amen on both avoiding Dell and kudos to Lenovo. Dell USED to be great, but they've cheapened beyond acceptability in random areas, plus having moved their support to India. Unfortunately, HP cheapene

Reality is all of the computer manufactures are really just assemblers. Only real difference between them is the case and support (Lenovo and HP have the best support from recent research on laptops)

Dell's handling of that was enough to make sure I never buy one. They replaced defective system boards with boards they repaired -- knowingly!-- with defective caps. And then refused to replace them

Wow, surprised to hear so much animosity towards Dell. Sorry if I gave bad advice; but I've only had good experience with them. Guess I need to give Win 7 more of a test drive (oh shoot, 8 is out now
