Does it wreck your computer if you move it around a lot? It's a desktop?

No, not unless you hit the computer hard or it hits in bad areas.

My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 6000.  I built my desktop myself.  Well, okay...my husband walked me through it, but I physically did it all.  ;)

I work on a computer every day for 8 hours and leave I never turn it off. I leave it running the whole week including weekends and only reset it sometimes. I don't believe that there is a problem with leaving it running.

don't do it. slows stuff down. RAM is cheap. if you use multiple sticks, match by size, speed and manufacturer.

It's very unlikely you will find it on the internet I did find the quote a number of times but it is actually "in the future computers may weigh less than 1.5 tons"  which is a little accurate, 30lbs for a desktop and what and on average 8lbs for a laptop both less than 1.5 tons.  Anyway, you aren't likely to find it online.  Unless you know someone who has that issue you are most likely out of luck, unless someone took it and scanned it somewhere.  Well, Google is a good place to start, good luck!

You may have accidentally drop your PC or there may be some foreign object in your hard drive.

Desktops are generally less expensive and are better able to deal with heat given that they're larger with bigger fans.\n\nAs far as capabilities, you should be able to find a notebook that can do just about everything a desktop can do.\n\nIf mobility is not a requirement and you have enough space for a desktop computer, then get a desktop.  You'll save money.\n\nIf you need mobility or you don't have enough space for a desktop or if you don't have a desk, then you need a notebook.

The desktops are slow and cumbersome but the notebooks are great. I have both and I want to get rid of the desktop!!! It gets so sloooow after a while (I don't know why). Both of the Dell desktops I have had do this.

To be honest. Not much. The desktop market is just too saturated. I would look at donating it to a charity. You get a better tax write off than going through the hassle of trying to sell it, while helping out folks in need. Win-win. TX

No it is not safe either from a personal safety standpoint or an environmental standpoint. Anything on your hard drive can be recovered - most of the stuff that you have "erased" included and some computer components are toxic. Best to remove the hard drive and physically destroy it yourself and then check for someone who collects computers for safe discard.

I hope that you are talking about a laptop computer, and if so, then you can change your ram, processor, hard drive, etc.....can also add, remove, change, just about anything that you can in a desktop computer, just the process is not quite as simple, and if you don't know what you are doing, I highly recommend that you have someone who does do it for you!

it isn't advisable to do so... i had bad experience in doing so. First your cd rom will spin irregularly and it will result in a defective cd rom... Second the hard should be horrizontally placed to prevent it from overheating. the hard drive is made of cd like layers with heads in between and there is a slider on which the head moves. The head moves horizontally without any problem. When the hard disk is vertical, the head will use a lot much of energy to be able to slide up. Resulting in overheating and finally a hard disk failure.\nso just take my advice, either place your CPU vertically or buy a special casing for horizontal CPU.

No Not At All Even If Hard Disk Is Not\nInstalled There The MotherBoard Will Keep Movin.

At worst, it sounds like the system board has been damaged.  there is usually no fixing them.  They have to be replaced.  The price for a board would probably be in the $100-$150, plus labor charges.  Depending on the age of your computer, it may not be worth putting money into it.  Since you can get a low end Dell desktop starting in the $300-$350 range.  About what a system board would run you.  Also you may be able to find a local computer shop that can build one reusing your current hard drive, CD drive and possible other components in the same range or less (fewer parts).

normal. but if your computer is in an encoles space on most sides, it could be overheating. just move it out into a more open area. the noise should die down a bit. but it is normal. the buzzing means that all of the grears are moving properly.

Yes, viruses can totally destroy computer parts...\n\nOne of the most common ways is it will overload your whole system and overheat all your parts and just totally fry your whole motherboard and all the components attached to it...\n\nEDIT: i did say that the most common thing it can do to destroy computer parts is to overheat them...but it is still very very rare...
