Probably a mechanical problem with the keyboard. Or maybe dust got stuck between the contact points for the spacebar key.

the problem is....wat:
- graphic card
- CPU

should i upgrade?

and

wat can i do to max out my pc..

i wanna run vista and some games...softcore games..

ps..thanks all...i might reply abit late...bear with me....

I think u should get a new mobo & a new CPU .Don't invest in a socket A now coz although u may find these stuffz ,u'll face problems in case of any replacement issue coz they won't be available that long.

I can suggest u a system that'll not burn a hole in ur pocket.

1. Motherboard :- MSI K8NGM2 with Integrated Geforce 6150 graphics which is far better than ur current graphics card(I'm also using an Asus Geforce4 MX-440).


2. CPU :- Athlon 64 3200+ 939 Pin.


I'm suggesting u to go for this board coz then u won't have to buy a new ram as this board supports DDR 400.If u think u'll get a new ram as well,then go for the K9NGM2 model which supports DDR2 & get an Athlon 64 3200+ AM2 CPU.

Believe me, u can't get better than this if ur budget is limited. Also try to get urself atleast a 80GB Sata HDD.

I had a K6-2 450MHz computer and another one of these old 486 DX-33. A K6-2 is still an amazing processor for such an old platform. The Pentium II works better, though, but it's more expensive at that time. Still I hope to have one of these K6-2 or a classic Athlon for my spare rig.

GASJATT: i fell of my chair....ur rig is outta this world man...

CALL OF DUTY: good advice..will check how first...but most probably i'll wait for the AM2.

YONG GRAND: i still have 3 P100, and 2 P66.. u want parts?? processors still good...Only 1 has a full setup..Windows 3.11 and all..a compaq...

ADRIAN: i cleaned the whole thing..dismantle the space bar also...sometime can..sumtimes...cannot...and i dint even use it much...anymore advice?

[Adrian Wong]

Hmm.. Does the contact plate look tarnished? If so, maybe you can try using Mr. Brasso to polish it.

Oh, this is referring to the FTEC laptop? Is there still warranty? If so, you better send it in FAST!
