I am NOT a computer techie type person so any responses and help need to be in basic terms

One of my computers is a HP Compaq DC7700.  

The current mother board is a "Hewlett-Packard 0A54H".  I am trying to find out if I were to get a new mother board for this PC, where do I look and what would be compatible/fit? And what the cost might be (just for reference), as i realize the mother board might cost more then the computer is worth (to me).

The computer works, but I believe the graphics is going, but it is integrated so from my understanding that means I would likely have to replace the mother board (so I just thought I'd check getting a new one).***So to reiterate, what I'm hoping someone can help me with is  finding "... a mother board for this PC, where do I look and what would be compatible/fit? 

Or is WD hard drives better

I have a NEW Dell xps 8940 special edition.  The Seagate Barracuda 2TB makes an almost constant Clickity-click, Clickity-Click, Clickity-Click noise and it is a bit on the loader side.  I contacted Dell about it, in trying to make a long story short; the Dell/ chat tech said it was a fan issue- sent out two new fans and a Tech and replaced fans, noise continued, 1st onsite tech said that noise is NOT normal - connected with Dell rep, trouble shot, scans, settings....all normal - sent out a new hard drive with new tech.  Second tech replaced HD, noise continued and 2nd tech said noise is normal. 

 I contacted Dell just to confirm because I'm now confused, one Tech said its normal (and obviously Dell must not think it is normal as they sent out the new hard drive) and then being told by a 2nd Tech sent out by (World Wide Tech Support) being told something different.

All of the computers I've ever owned have never made this type of noise/sound?  I realize I can still return the computer but what a pain in the butt.

HELP, any thoughts, Option's, Suggestions?

I have a shirt that has a single, some what narrow, box pleat at the I guess it would be the nape of the neck/back.  I was wondering if could still add a couple of darts to give it a bit more flattering shape, if not in the back how about the front or both?

I'm relatively new to sewing.

I have a bunch of Navajo White paint left over that I'd like to use up, but I'm sick of the color.  Yes I know I can add white paint and lighten it up, which i will likely do, but that doesn't get rid of the yellow undertone.  I was wondering if adding a bit of purple/violet would offset the yellow?

Again, i'm looking for less yellow!

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled and updated the display adapter, didn't help. Monitor updated......

This computer is older but works fine up until this problem.  I have an

HP Compac dc7700 Small Form Factory desktop (about 9 years old, but still working).

Intel(R) Core(TM) 2CPU

Intel Q965/Q963 Express Chipset Family WDDM 1.1

Short of buying a new computer, which i know eventually i need to do, is there anything i should try to fix this problem or is my computer about to take a crap?

HELP

Those with experience please advise/recommend which sites, stores... to check out and or avoid and as much detail would really be appreciated and helpful.

I am NOT a gamer, but want a decent computer/PC/ desktop, for browsing, some home business uses, photo editing, burning music.... things like that.  I've had both Dell and HP and don't have a preference but am open to suggestions.

My current computer, which is working, is a HP Compac dc77 small form factory Intel Core 2 Duo.
