I had a Sony DSC-N1 before my D40. Was very impressed. I have been impressed with the T series Sonys as well. Cant go wrong with the Sony compacts IMO. Cant comment on the Fuji
Also to be honest regardless if it is set to PCI-E, PCI, AGP or whatever options are available on various boards it will still post this setting is not generally needed
Basically POST is when you get to the bit where it lists CPU, RAM amount and Hard drives and where you can enter the BIOS. If your CPU was dead then you wouldnt get to post. Someone said above even if it was completely dead you would but you wouldnt chances are it wouldnt power on.
It could...
Nah if the box says so then it should be a 1333FSB, dont worry about the noises fella. They do make some horrendous noises, CPU's are generally more robust than people think. The 775 are good in that the chip contacts are not pins like on the old ones.
If the CPU was fecked you wouldnt be...
With Ref to your other problem.
I notice you have a E6750 CPU, the motherboard you are using supported that FSB 1333 CPU after BIOS revision 1.2, that was released in JUly (End off) it could be you have old stock that isnt updated and hence wont run the CPU without a BIOS update. Any chance...
The bit below that says serial port header, will more than likely be a small backplate with a serial connection on, that plugs into a header on the Mobo.
- ATX 24-Pin power connector
- 8-pin ATX 12V power connector
- CPU x 1 / System FAN x3 connectors
- CD-in connector
- Front panel audio...
No not all boards do. Generally you find lower end Mobos have onboard VGA, however most if not all high end boards dont have onboard VGA. The port you are looking at is a serial port mate. Looks very similar and has the male pins like you said.
That board you linked to does NOT have onboard VGA
The touch doesnt use a hard drive.........
I doubt it ever will either, there probably isnt room with all the other touch screen related shizzle in there

Cheapest at the moment obviously you get £30 cashback as well and free delivery so that makes it £267.00 delivered.
Unless you are printing A3 and above you are not going to notice much if any difference in the picture quality seeing as...
They are the same camera mate bar a few small differences the main being the d40x has more mega pixels than the d40 and is a fair bit more expensive.
I think you would be more impressed with the 50mm lense as an extra than the extra few MP and other tiny differences.
You are paying for the bag and filter. No matter where you get the camera from you hve a 2 year warranty and the same with the cash back.

Camera for £378.98, 2GB Card £20, Crumpler Bag £50, Filter £13. Still a good deal none the less
But...
Also regards the comment about Jessops going down. The warranty on the camera is with Nikon so it makes no bit of difference who you buy it with as long as it has a European warranty
As gets posted every week at least once ;)

Also save your pennys and buy a D40 and spend the extra you saved buying the D40 over the D40X and buy a 50mm f/1.8 lense
Every contract I have been on just deducts 3 TEXTS for an MMS I have never been charged for an MMS message if I have spare texts.
As for 3K messages not being enough. Butter needs to get out more ;)
Yeah you can. Most SATA II drives have a tiny jumper on there. I thought by default they ran in SATA 1 mode until you removed the jumper. Most hard drives we get in are like this
