It's not glue, but thermal paste. It's used to fill all microscopic holes between the heatsink and CPU. Like Dartht33bagger already said,...

If you use Linux often, it's easier to view multiple terminal windows on a rectangular screen.
That's true, but a cpu usually has a much higher FSB frequency than most memory chips. Computers of 1-2 years ago have memory running at 800 MHz...
Welcome to HWF :) The FSB is not the memory, but the amount of times in seconds when it exchanges data with the memory and the Northbrige. You...
No that one won't work. I just figured out that all Pentium 4 CPUs that have HT technology, require 800 Mhz. So that means that you can ONLY use...

If the Circuit Breaker shuts down when you connect your computer, that means that the PSU might be defective. It usually happens when the 'hot'...
I found the jumper settings for your hard disk. These are here. You should set it to OPT1 (the lowest in the picture). The jumper should be...
You can use both drives on the same cable. This is no problem, as long as the drives are configured as Master and Slave.
I just found this on wikipedia: Now I need you to take out the hard drive, and look at the back if you see a group of 4 metal pins. If this is...
In this tutorial I will show you how to install and replace a hard disk. I'll give instructions about IDE and SATA hard drives. If there's a need...
Welcome to HWF :) At the back of both devices are a group of pins with a black cap on it. On the label of each drive should be a guide showing...
When you turn on your computer, do you see a screen that states something like "press xx to configure SATA"?
