Dude, I bought my wireless keyboard exactly 1year ago and I have never changed the batteries. LOL.
I change the mouse batteries about twice a month.

These powerful batteries are: Duracell MN1500 LR6 Alkaline. Size AA. 2units --> 8) 8)
I got duracells(don't know what type) also but still the lifetime sucked :roll:

could be because it was a mircosoft set.

my wireless mouse doesn't have normal batteries but I recharge the mouse on the docking station

WTH?

HP's don't suck. They might have they're own little bastard problems, but they are built like tanks. My dad installs HP systems that support medical intrusments and he says that they never f*ck up or die.

So stfu :P

Tell me about it, my mom had an old HP, that thing had to weigh well over 40 lbs! When I opened it up, all the plastic covering were lined with what looked like aluminum. The Structure of the case, itself, looked like it was made out of steel!

well in my comp, the PCI slots were white, AGP black
also PCI slots are smaller than AGP's
also AGP slots have a small latch at the end of it to secure the card, which PCI's dont have

Uhh, no, don't even try that. Ok, PCI slots are almost always white or a white-ish color. AGP slots are not always the same color, but they are normally bl;ack or red.
The long red slot on this motherboard is the AGP slot. All the other slots are the PCI slots. Hope this helps.

Not all pci slots are white or white is you have them also in yellow orange purple etc depends on the brand off your motherboard, the same goes for the AGP slot you have it in black, brown (standard color) and other colors. And a PCI-Express graphicscard doesn't fit in a normal pci slot because the pci-e slots are a little bigger.

The big yellow slots next to the pci slot on the left are pci-express slots for the pci graphicscards

Your computer doesn't have AGP slots? How old is it, I've never seen a motherboard without a AGP slot before. :?

Hmm, but does it give any notifications to ask you to change the batteries if the bat. has gone flat or going to be? At least mine does... :P

Yeah I would say that too, but I think we're in it :P

@R34: I think that the easiest way to tell is just by grabbing your card and putting it next to all of your slots to see if it fits anywhere! No point getting pics and stuff, if it fits then it fits.
If not then you will have to buy a new MB.
