Proper disposal instructions for your computah can be found at various
web sites that deal with eWaste and computer recycling. If you supply
some clue as to where you're located, I can search for suitable
recycler.

As for a new computer, I suspect this would be a bad idea. I note
that you are having some difficulties posting your question to the
appropriate newsgroup. Your question has nothing to do with wireless.
I also have some issues with your problem description, but I don't
want to go there. You're also apparently unwilling or unable to seek
professional local computer assistance. Basically, I'm not sure if
you are qualified to repair or even operate a computer.

In the meantime, you might consider that a replacement motherboard
costs less than the time to troubleshoot your existing board.

Just out of curiosity, did you ever notice that traffic from that wireless
forum website only appears to be one way? Stuff posted here rarely shows
back there, and answers to posts on there don't seem to make it here (i see
several people from here on there also, but the replies are never
transferred)..... Looks like that may be one of the q's posted there.....

Yep. Actually, it's a problem in both directions. It seems that
their usenet newsgroup gateway is broken. None of the usenet
originated posting coming from this newsgroup are not appearing. For
example, this thread at:
<http://www.wirelessforums.org/hardware-discussion/pc-advice-31536.html>
currently shows the original message, one followup that has NOT
appeared on Newsguy, and is missing 5 followup postings that
originated on usenet.

It appears that it has already been fixed. Recent followups to other
threads (such as mine about router reset problems) are apparently
identical on both services.
