I've had my computer about 5 years now and after reading about Ken's and others hard drive failures I'm thinking about upgrading.
I really don't know much about computers, my current system is a Gateway with a Pentium (R) 4cpu 2.53ghz, 75GB with 512 MB of Ram.
I'll probably have to go with something from Comp USA or Best Buy.
A DVD burner is a must and possibly something in HD. I don't play games or listen to music on the computer.
I have no idea what I should be looking for, possible brands or cost, also will I be able to use my current hard drive as my backup source?
Thanks

A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.
