Windows installation is very slow
As a guess you are installing Windows 7. Yup it is very very very slow. ;-]
The first time I installed 7 I thought there was something wrong but that is just the way it works. XP or Vista will install in about 30-40 minutes while 7 on the same hardware can take 3-4 hours (or more).
No fix for this other than finding something to do while you wait.

One bad lead can cause a computer to continue on a cycle or to shutdown or fail to detect your hard drive

The local computer shop indicates
Yes is the short answer, repairs will probably cost more than the mother board is worth.
Have a good look at all the solder joints, is there a dry joint, looks like a blob of solder which is
hollow and a bit of wire poking through. If you can find one, re-solder it.
If not, you're into electronically testing each component
Depending on how old your current one is, will depend on whether you replace with like for like or decide to upgrade.
Your problems will be:-
1) Dell uses proprietary equipment, so the replacement will still need to be supplied by dell. Or get a second hand one.
2) It will need to be compatible with your CPU, RAM, PCI cards and HDD/ optical disk interfaces
Good fun, but a nightmare if you're not sure what you're doing.
An alternative is to buy a second had PC and put you current HDD in as a slave keeping the original as a master, even then you need to match interfaces.

Hi ! I have a Dell OWG855 motherboard with a
Yes, a 1024MB video-card would work, but what are you doing that would benefit from such a high-end video-card?
Are you trying to drive a high-resolution (1920-by-1280) monitor, at high frames/second rates?
Is your CPU fast-enough to support a high frames/second rate?
I have a Dell Inspiron 530 w/ an 0ry007
This system uses a PCI-E slot for its video (graphics) card. This is the perfect platform to accept a high end card that has dual DVI outputs, which allows multiple displays. You should change out the card that came with the machine, most PCI-e cards these days have the dual outputs and cost less than a hundred bucks. The dual output is a better way to go instead of an adapter.

Hello,
