Every time you are installing new hardware into your motherboard check your MOBO's spec's first.

What to do Windows freezes then crashes and on auto-reboot Hard drive not found?

It is recommended that you contact a computer repair professional if you lack the knowledge to repair the system yourself, as you may cause further harm. That being said, a typical repair person would try to isolate the problem one step at a time. First, they would check the cables inside the computer to make sure they are all secure. Rarely, loose cables can come undone (or someone may have intentionally/accidentally disconnected it). If the connections all look secure, the next step is to try and use the hard drive on another computer that is known to work. If it works on that computer, the issue is either the cable or motherboard. If the hard drive fails, it may need to be repaired or replaced. Note that your data is most likely lost if the hard drive is bad, unless you are willing to pay to have the drive repaired or have the data extracted, which may run thousands of dollars. This is why backups are always important, since devices can and do fail sometimes. If the hard drive works on another computer, the repair person can check the cable (swap it out for another), and then the motherboard. In other words, it is likely that there is a hardware failure, since the hard drive "cannot be found." Care must be taken when working with hardware, as a single static shock can render hardware destroyed, which is why this answer includes the recommendation that you contact a professional if you lack the knowledge to attempt such repairs yourself.

A file you are currently working on is BASICALLY stored in RAM. Parts of the file may also be swapped to hard disk, depending on the specific program you are using, the size of the file, and the available memory.

What is the sequence of instruction does the control unit perform?

The control unit performs a sequence of instructions that typically includes fetching an instruction from memory, decoding it to determine the operation to be performed, and then executing the instruction by coordinating the necessary components of the CPU and other hardware. After execution, it may also involve storing the result back in memory or registers. This cycle is repeated to process subsequent instructions, facilitating the overall operation of the computer.

What type of program in Disk Defragmenter?

It's a utility program - designed to 'join up' all the fragmented files on a disk. The BIG flaw with Windows is - when it needs to save data to a disc - it simply looks for the first piece of blank space. It doesn't matter whether the space is enough to save the data. Windows simply fills the first space it finds - then goes looking for more space if needed !

Is mac better than a PC?

PC's are a lot better than macs because they are better and more straight forward.

Do not listen to this guy above me, he doesn't offer any reason why PC's are better than Macs.

I believe Macs are better than PC's.

1. They are 5x more reliable than a Windows PC, and even if you do run into problems with your Mac, you have Apple's top quality support, either via phone, e-mail or go to an Apple Store.

2. Macs are much more stable than PC's, as the Unix-based operating system is far better at isolating issues than Windows.

3. Macs stay relevant for a LONG time. If you go and buy a top-end PC, a couple of weeks later, a new PC will be released. Apple always put very advanced technology into the Mac, so even a few years after you bought your Mac, it'll still be very advanced.

4. Apple control everything which comes out of your Mac, meaning everything just works. Apple make the Operating System and all the hardware. The software, mouse, keyboard all just work together in symphony.

5. Macs are far less suceptible to viruses than Windows PC's. Macs can get viruses, any computer can, but Macs are 100x more secure when it comes to viruses. This means there is much less chance of losing personal data from your computer, and there is no need to waste hundreds of dollars on Anti-virus software.

6. Macs just look better. I mean, what would you prefer, a clunky Dell PC with 7 wires trailing all over the floor, or an all-in-one Mac, with just one wore? 1 wire is all the iMac has!

These are just a few of the reasons I believe Mac is superior to Windows :)

Disregard the guy above, unless he has a bibliography showing where he got the info, that could all be opinion.
