No! Not a fried CPU - Someone comfort me! :(

Irwin
OK. I've just received my CPU from a friend in California. The CPU fan I bought from a local store didn't fit the CPU (P3 850 Slot 1/A whatever). I assembled my machine and was so eager to test the machine out.

Burner and IDE probs.

Cutha
In Windows 2000 I cannot burn any cds. Within 1-2 minutes I get a buffer under run and an instant coaster. I have used several pieces of burning software, same thing. Everything works fine in win98 though.
