(My list of hardware is in my signature)

1. Is there anything I can do you make my computer faster? I heard that my type of processor is locked and it can't be OCd. It wouldn't do any good to overclock anything else because my motherboard only supports 333Mhz (which is why my memory only runs at 333Mhz instead of 400Mhz) Are there any other things I can do to speed it up?

2. When I use my video card (after enabling it and disabling onboard) I get small blue squares when I drag things across the screen and I get a yellow haze around the text. Would updating the driver help, or is the card not completely compatible with my MB?

3. Is 118 degrees (F) under normal load a good temperature for my CPU?

4. I can't get my onboard sound to work, I updated the drivers from the CD and from the internet but nothing works, any ideas?

try the videocard on another computer to see if it shows same things or not. your temp of about 48c is alright somewhat. how many fans total in case including psu. in the bios, is the videocard set at 2x, 4x or 8x agp?? try this link for your audio driver. http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=420&OSID=1&CatID=1010...
