How much money do each of these computer parts cost on average?

Q. How much would these computer parts cost if they are decent parts that are popular today?

motherboard (preferably Intel)
RAM (2GB-4GB)
CPU
graphics card (not the best, but a decent one)
power supply

Thanks for the help!

A. There are dozens of price comparison sites and hundreds of products available ...

Unless you are building your own 'Super Powerful' Games Machine, I REALLY advise you to purchase a fully built PC = it's always a LOT cheaper to buy the whole thing in one box than to buy each individual part = the Operating System License alone is likely to cost you more than the hardware = you can easily pay £100 - £150 for a VISTA Home license .. PC manufacturers, such as Dell, buy in bulk from Microsoft and pay less than £10 a box ..

Right now you can bet there will be dozens of bargains at your local computer store ..

Original Question

Why does the screen flash when I try to play a new computer game just installed?

Q. I've been playing the Nancy Drew computer games for a while now, and recently I've installed some of the newer games. They will install completely and the sound is fine, but the video part flashes or blinks. I heard that I might need to update my video card. I downloaded an update from my manufacturers website, but the video still doesn't work. Do I need to open the new file into a certain program to get it started?

A. Modern games require modern video cards to run properly. In fact, you need a good dedicated video card (if you haven't) from a manufacturer like nvidia or ati.
Which games do you have installed?
