Ok thx for your input

If the system starts up fine, the only error you should get is "no boot record/bootable disk found". And yes, all you have to do is install the operating system and the motherboard and graphics drivers.

Ok kinda understandis there a certain order to put these discs in ? if so which order ? plus im getting a hd 5770 sapphire it shoudl come with a disc ? to setup up gfx drivers? if so would i also have to go on ther esite and download some up to date drivers cause ive heard this entioned a few times

thx

Hey im a first time builder all my parts will arrive in like 1-3 days ive watched tons of videos and putting together looks easy i maybe wrong but just takes common sense and patience .... But whe it comes to starting computer and bios and stuff thats another story with me so heres a few questions

1) Once PC is build and connected up when i run for first time do i have to set/adjust the bio's or do i only do this if some kind of error message or codes come up when starting it ?

2) What the main things i have to do in the bios edit/adjust wise?

3) I wont receive my OS for a couple days after ive built it so if i build then start and see if any errors and if there is i correct the bios all i have to do is wait for os after and install it?

4) what common or major problems could i have when starting the comp for first time and how do i go by correcting these?

i have ask 1 or 2 people in pm's but i would like everyones opinions and advice from personal experince

thx

i would say hell yer wow would run amazingly im currently building a rig for wow but ive gone well overtop so im considering playing other games aswell now lol just to get my moneys worth

But what you got to remember about wow its not just you hardware you have to consider you need to consider your internet speed/connection and all sorts cause wow playing smoothly requires a combo of cpu, gfx, internet and that not just the cpu or gfx i believe but im not expert

yes lol cause ive only taken interest in comps in last 3 weeks and like i said that magazine was from like 6-7 months ago i bought and never read it but i got bored last week and saw the article :D

ok i need to use my new dvd/cd drive/burner thingy in the old computer quickly before i put it in mynew one cause i nee to write a dvd for the new comp

the olld comp has 2 sata ports on it so i think im alright for connecting my cd/dvd drive there but the psu only has 4 pin power cables on it and my cd/dvd drive only excepts sata power and sata data

can i plug the 4 pin into this cable them plug this cable into the power slot on cd/dvd drive?

and will this read the cd/dvd if i plug the sata data cable in sata 1 port and 4 pin into sata power and sata power into cd/dvd drive

thx

you think thats amazing i bought a comp magazine in july last year and never read, i got so bore dother day i took a look and there was a article about a guy who got his amd phenom II x4 955 black edition overclocked to 6ghz! thats not far off double the retail speed man

well it looks like ill have to go round and look later today and pray i get some luck :D thx for all ur inputs

id rather find a solution for this without spending money as ive gone way over new build budget and can't spend no more, the one i need to use cd/dvd burner on for 10-20 mins is in fact a computer pruchased built :( but not by none people by a website which i can't find no more i just need to burn a dvd quickly before build new comp but i have to connect my new cd/dvd burner to old comp as it hasnt got one to do this

This maybe a newbie question and that but i kinda want a opinion, kk i need to cd/dvd burner to burn sumthin i have purchased one for new comp but i need to use this before i use on my new computer. Problem is only other pc i got is from like 200ish and i need to put this cd/dvd burner in this comp for like 10-20 minutes to burn sumthing problem is this cd/dvd drive only have a sata power and sata data port or wat ever they are

My question is will a computer from 2004 have the sata power cable on psu and sata port on moerboard for this to function ? i would look but this computer is at a different house atm and its out of my way to go there if its a definate no due to the mobo anpsu age

thx
