Should I replace my hard drive, or buy a new computer?
Posted Saturday November 12 2011, 8:25 am
Hi! I've had my dell dimension e310 for 7 years now and had only minor problems with it up until now. It has had a virus a couple of times and we took it to get fixed, but this time the computer guy says we have to buy a new hard drive. I was just wondering if it would be worth it, or if it would beb better to get a new computer.

Strange Computer Keyboard Functions.
Posted Wednesday November 9 2011, 10:01 pm
I have a new laptop operating on Windows 7 from Toshiba. My problem is the keyboard. There`s something about it that`s different than I have encountered before.
The best example that will explain this is that my number 2 key has the symbol for AT.COM that you`d see in an e-mail address. Instead of just the at sign I`ve got quotation marks and one other symbol. It`s like that on 90% of the number keys when you would hit shift.
What can I do to be sure I get it to make the right symbols when I hit shift. I can`t put a bloody at sign to sign into e-mails even. If you know what I need to do to get the right symbols that would be appreciated.

I have the old Sony Vaio laptop and of course it has a built in webcam. I've had the computer about 3 years and just recently i started having problems with the webcam. At first it would just flicker on and off, but now I can't figure out how to turn it on at all. I don't know what to do!

Which Dell Desktop Should I Buy?
Posted Wednesday October 19 2011, 8:49 pm
I would like to spend about $300 on a new computer. I was thinking about getting the Dell Inspiron 560 or 570 (if there is a major difference for what I need please let me know) and I was wondering if it a good buy and if it comes with Microsoft Word. I am basically just going to be using the computer to type files, go on youtube, watch some movies on line, face book and basic surfing. I am not addicted to dell so if you have something better please share but I really don't want to spend much more than $300 (which is why I am going with dell) Thank you.

FireFox Web Broswer Question
Posted Monday October 3 2011, 7:48 pm
Here's something I don't understand. When you clear your history on FireFox for Windows 7 it erases like it's supposed to. However, the minute I type a letter into the address bar to go to a site it comes up with a list of sites starting with that letter that you can go to. How do I make it so the address bar doesn't bring that up when I type? I hope you understand what I mean. I have no other way of putting it.

Will my laptop die at all if...
Posted Friday September 23 2011, 12:19 am
If I keep the charger in but the battery out? I'm still confused on this situation. I don't want to keep wearing out the battery if I'm just keeping the charger in the whole time I'm on the laptop.
Help please? :S
If it matters, it's a crappy Gateway laptop and when I take the battery out and keep the charger in, it says it's plugged in but "no batter attached".

2007 Dell to 1997 Hitachi 60'' Via VGA/RGB
Posted Thursday September 22 2011, 10:38 am
I have a 1997 Hitachi Model No. 6OUX54B if it'll help any. My dell is Dimension 1100/B110 system model DE051. I was wondering if it was possible to connect the two together. I have looked and cannot see proper color ports for the RGB plugs, and this cord was bought without instructions as to which one is which. So, I was wondering if they are compatible to add together, or will I need to purchase a different cord? Thanks for your time and help.
Also, would a DVD player be capable of transferring the picture? I noticed my DVD player had RGB hookups.

Need help hooking laptop to TV.
Posted Saturday September 17 2011, 1:10 pm
I have a fairly old TV that I would like to hook my laptop up to. It's not ancient, but it's not from the flat-screen era.
My usual way is with a VGA cable, but this TV doesn't even have that. What's the next best (and cheapest!) way?
If someone could provide me with instructions / links to the products I'd need to buy, that'd be great!
