    I have a Dell 3100cn color laser printer, and it won't print black on the right side of the page. The rest of the document would print fine in both black and colored fonts, but there is one vertical line (about half an inch thick) across the page on the 1" right margin where black won't appear...

    Using GTK+ to develope GUI for C++?

    oh wow.. that's a major\stupid typo. I meant I DO want to make a GUI for it. And I actually am making this on Windows (Vista), so.... This project will be presented on my computer, and I suppose I can just include GTK+ in the package if I would distribute it.

    Using GTK+ to develope GUI for C++?

    I just got into C++ programming this semester (college freshman) so I really don't have a clue about a lot of things. For my final project, however, I want to make a program (it's like.. a schedule thing), but I want to make a graphical interface for it, so users don't have to use the terminal...

    Hooking up 5.1 speakers to my laptop

    Recently I purchased a Lenovo ThinkPad t61p, and when I'm at home I hook it up to external monitor, mouse, and keyboard, thus turning it into a computer tower. The only problem I have right now is that there is no way for me to hook up my 5.1 speaker set to it, since the ThinkPad, like many...

    How do I know if my DVD player upscales to HD quality?

    So public channels such as NBC, ABC, FOX are usually unencrypted and that's why I can receive them, I see. One last question (i hope): when I'm using the channel search on my TV, it asks what cable signal type do I receive and I can choose STD, HRC, and IRC for either Analog or Digital. I...

    How do I know if my DVD player upscales to HD quality?

    I ordered the AVIA disk on Amazon because it has great reviews. Thanks guys! I have few more questions to ask about the HDTV channels. I only subscribed to Comcast's basic analog cable bundle, so before I got my HDTV I only received 60 or so standard definition cable channels, but when I...

    How do I know if my DVD player upscales to HD quality?

    I purchased a Samsung HLT4675S 46" Slim 720p DLP HDTV. What is the calibration disc you are talking about? oh, and I would like to know if the normal drive in the 360 upconverts normal DVDs if anyone could answer.

    How do I know if my DVD player upscales to HD quality?

    I think I am getting a Xbox 360 soon, so I guess that's HD DVD? And the fact that I have a 1080i but not a 1080p TV somewhat hinders my decision to get a HD-DVD player or Blueray player.

    How do I know if my DVD player upscales to HD quality?

    So I recently got a 1080i HDTV, and I was wondering if my DVD player does the so called "upscaling" or "up converting." I have a Toshiba SD-310V DVD player and a Philips 615 DVD recorder. Does either one upscales to 780p\1080i? Or do I have to purchase a new one?

    Need help deciding between Sony and Samsung

    Thanks guys. I decided to go with the Samsung. Ordered on Amazon for $860 shipped and I bought the 2 year protection plan for $60. Although I heard it doesn't cover the light bulbs...so that's a let down, but I still think I got a good deal.

    Need help deciding between Sony and Samsung

    My choices are between the Samsung HL-T4675S and the Sony KDF-46E2000. Both are 46" (because the size of my room, tho I think 50" is acceptable at a 8 ft distance) and DLP HDTV. Now can anybody tell me the differences between the two and which would make a better buy if price wasn't an issue...

    I have Vista, now I want to dual boot XP.
