AMD Athlon 64 FX-74 4x4
Like a real 4x4, this was intended to be a strong performer, only AMD
would be relying on two processor sockets to achieve this performance
rather than one.

HELP new drive not recognize by XP
I just bought a new hard drive and the BIOS see it with no problem.
When Windows Explorer is open, it does not assign it a drive letter.
If I go to Disk Management, it shows up as UNALLOCATED.
I believe this means that it is not partitioned or formatted.
If I can't get WinXP to assign a drive letter to it, how can I
partition it or format it ?
Thanks,
Terry

installation was different in that I have 3rd party boot manager and windows
Millenium Edition on another partition. ME, independent of XP, was hidden

WEEE
Apologies if this is off topic but it is hardware related.
Could someone please suggest a link to a useful web site with guidance on
WEEE.
I refurbish (i.e. sell second user) computers and sometimes acquire kit (new
and refurbished) from my hardware supplier - we are talking in very small
numbers. I would assume that I am caught by the WEEE regulations. If so
would it be acceptable...

Rolling wheel on mouse in not smooth on screen.
I have two PCs with XP and each is acting different.
On my latest setup, I get lines across my screen moving vertically when I
roll the wheel on my mouse. I am wanting a smooth transition when moving up
or down my screen as I work on programs. It is as if the page is jumping 2
or 3 lines at a time.
How can I get a smooth transition with my mouse?
