Decent battery life. I get around 4 to 5 hours of screen on time with games, videos and web browsing.. You may be able to squeeze more out of the battery if you don't game on it.

Have you tried clicking on the magnet link instead?

Is your windows update turned on? If yes, then uninstall your current video drivers and update them to the latest version. If the problem still persists, stress test your GPU with FurMark: http://www.ozone3d.net/benchmarks/fur/ Make sure you stress test on the default clock values. Don't...

Press "Windows" + R Run command window will pop up. Type "msconfig" and switch to the startup tab. Here you will find the programs that are triggered to run during Windows start up. Disable the programs that you do not require. See if that helps!

Not sure about that. Current CPU's hardly die unless you overclock. Since your PSU malfunctioned, you should test the CPU in another motherboard just to be sure. For Q6600, you need to find a motherboard that supports the LGA 775 socket This one will work...

Are you able to ping your modem? Has your modem assigned an ip address to your lan adapter? Did you check by typing the ipconfig /all command?

Sounds like your modem or windows 7 DHCP is not working properly. Disconnect your wireless connection, then plug in your wired connection and run the command "ipconfig /renew" in command prompt. See if that fixes the issue! Also, check if your modem is assigning an ip address to your lan adapter...

Yes, you can use WR740N as a repeater. To do so, navigate to Wireless - Wireless Settings - Check the "Enable WDS" box - Then enter SSID, Wireless MAC and password of your primary router. Try it out on the router simulator: http://www.tp-link.com/resources/simulator/TL-WR720N/index.htm

Did you check power settings? Access control panel -> power options and check which profile is selected by default. Change the screen brightness of the selected profile and save the changes. See if that fixes your problem!

Yes, try to get a ram with the same latency timing for better stability. However, if you are adding different latency ram, motherboard controller will automatically adjust latency settings, if that is not the case, then you have to change the latency settings yourself (in bios).

Are you going to replace your current ram? If not, then it's better to stick with the same specs for better compatibility. Your current ram has a speed for 1333MHz, so if you going to add another ram, then ask for DDR3 1333MHz ram! PC3-10600 = DDR3 1333Mhz This one should work...

Check the card capacitors, most GPU's fail due to exploding capacitors. If the capacitors are faulty, it can be repaired! Get capacitors of the same rating. Watch the following vids:
