I am messing around with my old 750 N while I wait for my computer parts for the system I am building . Where did you get the 500 w power supply I have only been able to get a 400 w

@PimpxOn i got the power supply from ebay... $20 i think. Its not micro atx, it is a regular size power supply. It was a tight fit into this computer but i got it in and so far its been running great!

My buddy gave me his HP 750n and I would like to connect it to dual moniters, does anybody know where I can find a compatible video card or AGP card that will allow for dual moniters? I cant find anything online.

@bukakee1 hey, go on ebay and just type in 128 or 256mb agp graphics card. The computer has a 4x agp slot but agp 8x cards will work with it. So just look for one that supports dual monitors and buy it

Ok that computer is like crap... Even for 2008. And xp is like old bcus there was vista 2008 which was ok... And now windows 7 which most people have. Get a new computer if u havn't got one already :P

@thelaws1123 hmm... did you really think i did not know that? I know its old, its from 2001! For what i use it for, it works fine. Not to mention i do have 4 other computers... and if you look through my vids you will find that i do have a laptop with windows 7 on it which also works good for what its used for.

Cool!

I have it's older brother the pavilion 7955, with the p4 1.5Ghz, and Nvida Riva TNT2 64MB vid card as it came from the factory, I upgraded the memory to 1.25 gigs of PC133 and the thing is very fast for being a decade old now built in Oct 2001 ...LOL

Amazing how smooth even 720p streaming video is on this thing and the quality of the video is GREAT!
