admin answers:

Don’t know how much power your PC consumes?
Check out this link to help calculate what size power supply you may need.

Http://www.thermaltake.outervision.com/

this page is a very simple drop down menu style page and will help you to calculate the power level needed by your installed components,
after it has made the calculations it will also open a pop up window with some suggested models in the power range needed.

Newegg also have one on there website, it is very straight forward to use, you simple find your parts in the drop down lists
and check the how many boxes beside the grahics card, ram and odd (optical disk drive eg: dvd or cd burner)
then click on the calculate button then it will give you a recommended PSU Wattage the click on the find psu button and it
bring up a page with products that match your needs.

admin answers:

A triple core processor isn’t something I would choose to go with but damn, the rst of the configuration is quite good:
-3.2GHz is a very good frequency
-the 5670 with 1GB of VRAM is a good graphics card that should be able to run both current games and future releases without any problem.
The power supply manufacturer is well-know so you’re sure to buy a good quality power supply unit.
The amount of RAM is OK and it’s frequency is just what I recommend getting nowadays.Like this you’ll be better prepared for the future.
The amount of disk space is just a matter of needs. I personally find 500GB to be a good capacity even there are PCs that come with 2TB hard disk drives.
Sony DVD dries aren’t that good but it should work fine.
For the tasks you plan on doing with this PC, damn, the configuration is extremely good.The HD5670 is a good graphics card and the processor, although it’s a triple-core one, it still is a 3.2GHz multi-core CPU.
And for the price, this is a very good computer.450$ cannot usually buy something like this so if I were you, I’d get the PC.

Your Questions About Dvd Burners For Tvs

Betty asks…

How do I turn an adobe acrobat document into a dvd that I can watch on my tv?

I have books for school on line that are in adobe acrobat document form and I want to be able to play them with a dvd player and view them on the tv. I have a dvd burner on my laptop.

admin answers:

You may be able to convert them to jpegs, since many DVD players will display that format. However, the image will be fuzzy on your TV unless you have an HDTV capable of displaying 1080p. Even then it may not be very readable.

William asks…

Is there a blu-ray DVD burner out yet for TV console use. I know they have them as drives for your?

Your Questions About Internal Dvd Burners Install

admin — Thu, 17 May 2012 23:05:08 +0000

Robert asks…

Which is better? Internal or External?

I have a Sony CD-RW CRX215E5 and a Sony CD-RW CRX220E1.

I need to remove one of those to install an internal dvd burner.

Which is better?

Which one should i keep and which one should i remove?

Also what is the difference between an external and internal dvd burner.

Besides the fakt that one is inside and the other is outside.

Is the quality in burning different?

admin answers:

Maybe
depends on the interface
the external drive will take longer time to travel its path
than the internal one as it is already placed inside the pc
and so..
Yes,there will be a difference

Thomas asks…

How do I install a dvd burner?

I have a Hp tower with an extra expansion bay and I want to purchase an dvd burner? is it better to get a external or internal and if internal is it hard to istall how would I install in?

admin answers:

It is easy, first most PCs they have in their motheboard to conectors by default, i am tallking about IDE drivers,ide1 and ide2, they are ready to conect 4 devices like 2 HDS and 2 DVD burners(CD are absolute)
You can change this arraigment but you always has to have a HD in their first point, mean Master1.
They work by a date cable that have 3 conectors one end go to the IDE in the mobo, the midle is slave and the other end is a master, then you conect the cable from the power suply, and this type and the back of any device they have some pins, they need to be change with a litle plastic cup(provided) from master to slave of whaterever, the new type they called Sata they are serial, they conect the same but you dont has to configured the pins from master to slave.
I just let you know.but and this days that plug and go, un external USB, wit his own electrical power or trough a USB electrical powered HUB will work the same, and no hasle.

I want to burn DVD’s and my MAC doesn’t have a DVD-R burner: What would you recommend I buy?

Unfortunately my Mac didn’t come with an internal DVD-R burner (It’s an older model) and I was looking into upgrading it, but I’m not sure if iDVD allows you to burn copyrighted material. What kind of external DVD-R burner should I invest that would be easy to use for beginers like me?
If I can’t upgrade the computer, I’d like to know what kind of EXTERNAL DVD-R burner I should invest in that is compatible with a MAC and that is easy to use for beginers like me! Thanks!

admin answers:

Diablotek power supplies aren’t that good, I’d suggest a Corsair. Also, if you have another 10 dollars go with a Radeon 6790 rather than a 6770. ASRock mobo’s aren’t that good either, I’d suggest an Asus. Other than that everything looks good.

Http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371023&cm_re=430w_power_supply-_-17-371-023-_-Product

all those parts together will not need more than 280W (the answer above is wrong).

Another questionable part is the ram. Mushkin Enhanced Essential is likely laptop ram and will not fit. You need desktop ram 240pin DDR3, e.g. This one will work and is pretty cheap.

Your Questions About Dvd Burners External

Ruth asks…

Question about external usb dvd burners?

I see a bunch of external usb dvd burners on ebay, but not many of them come with the installaton cd. So my question is, are external usb dvd burners plug in and play (which means you don’t need any softwear to install, windows will recognize them automatically) or do you need an installtion cd? Thanks

admin answers:

External usb dvd burners are definitely plug and play; there is no need to install any software to make them work. The installations CDs usually come with some burning software; that is the reason they are included (just in case you don’t have any burning software). You can get one without an installation CD, and get some burning software elsewhere, or use software that you already have.

Carol asks…

A questionn about external DVD burners?

Recently I bought a BTC 16X External DVD Burner. I am having installation problems with it big time and I am asking for help. I installed it and that was fine. I then put in a blank DVD+R disc, which it supports. I then attempted to burn a movie from my hard drive and I got the message “INVALID DVD FOLDER”. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I am supposed to just beable to install, put in a disc and then burn. IF anyone has anything like this, please assist me. Will I have to re-install? Or am I doing something wrong with the way I am putting the disc in. Thanks in advance everyone.
Quick point: When I get to the main menu I have to click “BURN DISC FROM DVD FOLDER”. I click on that and it takes me to where I can browse for the folder I want. The folder is marked as a video folder. When I try to burn, I get the before mentioned message. Please help gang!! I need to burn some stuff in a bad way.

admin answers:

A dvd folder has to be a folder put out by an authoring application … It will be in “video_ts” format …

Chris asks…

Can someone help me choose an external DVD burner for my computer?

I’m looking for an external DVD burner for my computer. I’ve looked around quite a bit for information, and just as soon as I think I’ve found a good one, I see a bad review about it.

My computer is Dell Dimension 3000 which I bought just over two years ago. It’s running Windows XP Home Edition, with a 3 GHz Pentium 4, and 1GB DDR SDRAM at 400 MHz. Also, I don’t have a video card, just the one on the motherboard.

From what I can tell these specs seem okay, but I read somewhere that some older computers have compatibility issues with newer external DVD burners.

So, here are my questions:

1. Are my CPU specs okay, or should I be concerned because it’s a few years old?

2. If my CPU is okay, what are the best brands to look for, in terms of simply getting one that is reliable and works with my computer?

I thought looking for a DVD burner would be a lot easier than this, but there’s just too many red flags out there that keep making me hesitate.

Any help is much appreciated!!!

admin answers:

Most external dvd burners are fine.
A dvd burner transfers a lot of data and is fairly demanding.
It would be more an issue of cpu speed and as well transfer of data.
An older computer would have usb1 usb transfer rather than the newer usb 2 ( usb 2 is up to 40 times as fast as USB1 )
That is where the shortgap might be.
If you can an internal dvd might be a better choice.

Most of the brands of dvd burners are fine.
There really are only so many brands / or knock off of brands.
A lot of people dislike the LG brand and yet some people ( techs ) like them as they are the most supported.

Not everything but most things. 1600×900 is pretty much the sort of resolution people with desktops might run at. A dual core laptop processor and pretty good laptop graphics card are not going come close match a mid range gaming pc. So newer games are likely going to need some graphics options turning down…. There should be some reviews online with benchmarks so you can see exactly how it does.

I love the mobility on the M11x and the fact that it is light, but it has no cd drive to install anything with it. Also im asking if anyone has had experience with the M11x and if it can support heavy games like MW2 or WoW.

On the M15x the downside is that it is heavier than the M11x, but it has a cd drive to install new games such as MW2 and other new games, plus the bigger screen and such.

Im mostly going to use this laptop for gaming and video editing purposes.

If you can please give your own custom configuration on it with a reasonable price from alienware for a nice gaming rig please answer my question with nice details.

-Thanks

The m11x has a better graphics card but the m15x has a better processor. Unless you need the portability and battery life of the m11x I’d get the m15x. Except that I would get a less expensive processor and a better graphics card (that is if you intend you use your laptop for gaming which I assume you will). The i3 processor in the m15x will be faster than the ULV processor in the m11x and then you can get the awesome GTX 260M graphics card. Plus this configuration should be $100 cheaper than the m15x you configured.

How do I boot cd from external CD Drive on Laptop?

This is a very unusual situation I have. I have a Dell inspiron 4000 laptop and it just happens that i wanted to re-format my windows XP. but i realized that my cd drive isn’t working anymore so i decided to hook my external CD burner to my pc. When the laptop is on, the cd is well recognized from that source. But my problem now is that i can’t find a way to boot the cd from the external cd drive. How do i do it? Or does anyone have a better solution for me to format my laptop given that the internal cd drive isn’t working?
and no, im not going to buy a new one right now.
