Hmm search specifically for redaon HD 5570 powercolor drivers.  If not, then might have to take it in and get it checked professionally.

Check whether you have the latest Catalyst version installed - I think 10.5 is the recent one, with a fix already available.

The right shift key on my Acer Aspire 8730 laptop popped off. Of course, I already googled all of the solutions, and they work fine - my key attaches, sort of. It works until I press near the top edge of the key, when it pops off again.

You could just glue it you know.
Keys are supposed to be replaceable anyway.
I have no idea how many times vacuming my keyboard has lead to key hunt.

My "bucket" is causing problems again... At first the harddrive refused to boot windows at all. It went to warranty repair, but they said that it's in top shape. I use XP SP1 and I have an unfinished SP3 setup which I was too lazy to finish. Now when I try to boot my bucket, my keyboard refuses to work, and I cannot launch XP. Any ideas of what I should do? I thought that the keyboard was busted and replaced it. It didn't helped.

Does it give you any error message?
Where does it halt?
Can you access the HD from another machine?
Try Windows CD boot and fixboot.

There are like a million of those.
For firefox there are lots of plugins.
Can't remember the name of the good PDF reader I used at work.4

I think it isn't the HD's fault, because on other machines it works perfectly and windows is booting just fine. I get no error when I launch it on my bucket, only the keyboard refuses to work when I'm asked to choose either to launch XP or to install SP3. At first I thought it was damaged by condensating water(due to the douches that replaced the windows of my home inside it's a lot more humid then it used to be), but I haven't found any oxidation traces on the hardware. Even bought that "metilan stop humidity" thing. Didn't helped.

USB keyboard?
Check the bios settings, try a PS/2 keyboard.

Well, if my opion if I can't manage to find one searching for it, then I will be unable to locate it unless someone points me in a good direction.
Lets see:
*Xpdf is good, but I can't find working Windows binaries for it
*Most Linux PDF's are good, but they do not work on Windoze
*Foxit was not so bad, except the horrible interface and all the minor bugging they do
*Adobe Reader is a horrible example: It does not correctly work under a browser, and you need to manually get it running in order to do basic things such as fipping page direction. And its too unsecure
*Gamasutra was not so bad, but it could not "scroll" properly......
So.... where are my million PDF readers?

Tried Sumatra PDF?
Though I'm not sure if it has a browser plugin.

Adobe Reader is the WORST one out there.

I tihnk we used OpenPDF at work but I'm not sure about that.

If the headphone hole leads to a large metal box inside the computer, is it good idea to smash it open?

Thanks.

I'm open for suggestions.

EDIT: I've been thinking about if the PSU might be a bit overkill... a 400W of the same series might be sufficient.

Also, note that I'm not buying a new graphics card, I happen to have one of those 4850s here already. Might upgrade that one later but it works for my needs and my current budget.
