Tablet PC Help
Posted Friday August 1 2008, 5:37 pm
I have asked this question before and have, to date, gotten no answer. So maybe someone new will see this question and help me.
I just bought an HP tablet PC with Windows Vista. I was wondering if there is a way to change the settings where the screen is landscape when you have the computer like a laptop and then it changes to portrait when you flip the screen to write on it. It is hard to write with the screen all wide like that, but it is also hard to see to type if your screen is really skinny. Thanks in advance.

windows vista
Posted Thursday July 31 2008, 1:03 am
I got a new laptop for school and i love it. The only problem is that it has vista on it, which is kind of annoying. There are some settings i would like to change, but cant find how to do it. For example, when you download something, a box pops up and says "We need your permission to continue" or something and it happens again. Its like yeah, that's why i downloaded it. It's just annoying. How do i change that and other vista settings?
thank you

ok so instead of having a SMART computer that warns you AS SOON AS IT SPOTS THE TINIEST VIRUS, my computer just decided to tell me the other day that i have 2,989 VIRUS'S ON IT.
its making it really difficult to type, do anything online, or just anything general. this laptop is now basically useless unless i find a way to get these damn virus's off of it. problem is, my family is kind of tight on money right now? and so i dont want to wait 5 days for some cheap software to come in the mail. i tried restoring it, putting up a firewall, and installing this antivirus thing, but nothing works.
so my question is this: does anyone know of any good antivirus program that i can download for free online? much appreciated.

Old Hotmail Address
Posted Wednesday July 30 2008, 2:22 am
So I have an old hotmail address that I haven't logged into in a REALLY long time, and i know that hotmail used to have you reactivate your email after you haven't used it for a while, but I try to log in and it won't take the password that I was pretty sure was the right one. So I click 'forget password' and it says 'invalid address' or something like that.
So, does hotmail delete old email addresses now, or am I doing something wrong? I don't understand why it won't let me get my password back.
Thanks!

grrrrrrrrrr virus
Posted Wednesday July 30 2008, 1:02 am
I have the Zayle virus on my C drive and probably the usb drives as well... I have looked online how to get rid of it and it says to look in the tsk manager to find crsvc.exe and autorun.inf. The problem is, my three other antiviruses have already taken care of those (AVG, spysweeper, and panda). So now the only thing is my computer is running sooooooooooo slowly, and when I right click on the C drive instead of "open" it just says "zayle" Anyone know what I can do??? I have had it for like 6 weeks now.

Ipod Touch
Posted Tuesday July 29 2008, 11:27 pm
15/f. When I go to download the newest version of iTunes (7.7) the Apple Software Update comes up and I click Install One Item(iTunes + Quicktime) and then it starts to download the program updates. It gets to the end where it says 'Installing...' Then it says 'The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
Click Ok to try again, or enter an alternative path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in the box below.'
What should I do? I need iTunes ver. 7.7, as all you iPod Touch/phone users out there know, to get the Apps that I desire, but without 7.7, I can't have cool games on it.

ipod
Posted Sunday July 27 2008, 4:55 pm
I'm thinking of buying an ipod. I want it mostly for working out, to try to get me motivated and everything. I want something small, and everything I'm finding is big and bulky. I'd maybe like to be able to have videos on there, too, but it doesn't have to. I don't want to spend a fortune on it, incase I don't use it enough. Any suggestions as to what kind I should get?

Windows Movie Maker Question
Posted Sunday July 27 2008, 3:25 pm
I'm making a movie using Windows Movie Maker.
I have an MP3 file that I'm using for music, and when it's in a file folder, it says the length in 5:01 (same when I play it on iTunes). But when I import it to Windows Movie Maker, the file is 9:30! I don't understand what the problem is. When I put the file in my movie, I can't trim it to 5:01 because it cuts out a lot of the song. It's like they added in another chorus or something. It's so weird.
And also, if I play the song in the movie from the very beginning, it's normal and ends when it's supposed to (at 5:01). But, if I play it from the middle or something (for editing purposes) it cuts out at that weird place.
Help please! I really don't know what's going on with it...
