Tri-channel is only supported by Intel at the moment, and I'm not sure if AMD has any plans to support it in the future. AMD motherboards will accept ddr3, assuming you have and am3 socket motherboard, but will only work in single or dual channel.
I've run into this problem when utilizing Dell LCD panels and the DVI output. If the monitor is not plugged in when the tower is turned on, the PC does not utilize the DVI and defaults to the VGA. When you plug in the DVI connector the monitor realizes it has been plugged in and the LED will go green. When it does not get a signal from the PC it will go into power save mode and the LED will turn orange. Try plugging in the cable then powering the machine all the way down before restart. If you are running dual displays, ensure the second video card is enabled. Or, worst case scenario, you may simply have a bad video card.

Where the constantly needed data is stored?
Constantly needed data is stored in RAM, and depending on the system and the CPU used, it may be stored in cache memory. Cache memory is a special, high-speed type of RAM. It is more expensive and uses more current than DRAM, but it is used where speed is critical. Cache memory is generally inside of the CPU these days.

--- BUT ----> You should be advised that if the two computers aren't somewhat similar, you will have issues, such as BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH.
Remember that your current HD has all the drivers necessary for the system board you currently have and the devices that are connected to it. It WILL NOT have all of the drivers necessary for the computer you're putting the HD in and the differences between what's needed and what's installed can cause your system to spazz out. Not pretty.
In some cases Windows 7 will correct the drivers if it can find them but it's not a guarantee.
Great example: a HD that is installed on an AMD system can crash on boot if put into an Intel system.

To my knowledge, you just have to purchase a new card through the same machine you use to refill the balance on the smart card. I'd love to know how to hack one of these cards and adjust the balance, but I can't find any information online about how to do so. Guess I'll have to stay legit for now.
