I've got my TV hooked up to my computer,which used to work fine, but now, since I got a 19 inch wide screen LCD monitor for Christmas, the video is wacky on the TV. It's wide screen and is not completely displayed like it was when the TV and the PC were using 4:3 displays.
I've got a Radeon...
Just wondering, after looking and only finding image and partition solutions to this question, can I format my computer, copy everything to a DVD including machine specific drivers, programs, etc, and use that instead of installing from the XP CD next time? Every time I've ever formatted my...
Hey,
I'm hoping there's a quick fix for this one, it's driving me nuts. It seems that when I go to certain site that have a Windows Media Player video embedded in them, like news sites showing clips, my internet dies. I have to unplug my router for a few seconds and avoid said sites like the...
Is this even possible? I'm using my computer to encode a video for my PSP so I don't want to reboot, but suddenly my taskbar disappeared, then came back and now I only have my internet connection, the speaker icon, and the clock in my 'Notification Area'. I'm running a few other programs...
I want to be able to listen to my scanner while at work using the internet. I have a scanner, an audio-in jack on my computer, and an ISP. I know those are essential, I just don't know the software end of things. Can this be done for free? Anyone know? I'd have Googled the answer but I wouldn't...
Hey,
I just got a BEFW11S4 Router, and I know NOTHING about networking, well next to nothing. I tried connecting my PSP to it, but it times out or says 'Internet Connection failed".
Security settings on or off, it won't work and says this. I've been Googleing and I think I just need to set...
I'm trying to remove "Browse with Paint Shop Pro" from my Recycle Bin and some WinAmp options from other things without going into the registry. Buut, thanks to XP I can't do it.
I'm goping into the "Edit File Type", but 'Remove' is greyed out so I can't delete anything. I've tried poking...
Hi, I thought I had a program one time that was able to decode/open CD image files just as if they were on a disc. IE you could almost use your hard drive as a CD/DVD drive in that you could get indivudual files like they were on a CD..
Can Nero do this?
Anyone know of a free program that...
I did something kinda dumb, I was at a site that had one of those stupid "your PC may be infected" popups, and I decided to go toward the install thing to see if it tripped my virus or MS Spyware software. It didn't, but soon after my MS antispyware began saying it had blocked the installation...
Just got an MP3 player and I want to take some stuff off of a concert DVD for listening in my car. Can you rip audio only to a wav/mp3 as you can with a CD?
Thanks!
At my friend's place, and I tried deleting some stuff from this log, but his start page keeps getting changed back. Any url you type leads to this freaking http://103.nowfind.biz site...
Please help!
Thanks

Just bought a new DVD RW drive, and when I tried out the Terminator 3 DVD in it, I had to install some InterActual player on top of my Nero (which worked fine) to view the DVD. I liked Nero/WMP better for playing discs, so I uninstalled the T3 player, but now when I double click a DVD in My...
I just formatted my computer today and it's acting up. When I boot it up it goes to the desktop and everything is accessable except my dialer to my high speed internet. After about 20 or so seconds of no HD activity, it starts chugging away and my Norton taskbar icon comes up and I can select...
I'm trying to fix up a friend's notebook, and after having troubles fixing certain issues I've formatted it. Following the clean install everything's fixed (no surprise there) except for a delay when connectingto the internet following bootup. Everything else works seconds after the desktop...
Hello,
I have a quick question about an issue that I'm not sure I can even describe correctly. After booting into Windows, I'm unable to do anything like launch the dialer for my DSL until about 30 seconds passes. Windows looks like it's finished booting,all the icons are in the bottom right...
Just wondering if I can use my mic and line-in jacks on my MoBo with WMP9. I'm trying to record things from my scanner (the radio kind) as wavs or mp3s. I tried using sound recorder but it's got a limit of 60 seconds. Seems it was designed for 486s and never updated to record more as mem/power...
I have a backup HDD in my computer that I used for backing everything I have up. Suddenly during a bootup it said secondary HDD failure in my boot screen, and then it would not show up in the BIOS. I unplugged the IDE cable and power in the case, and now it shows up as "RAW" in WinXP with a 0...
Hey there,
I'm one of those people who likes to have everything with Windows the way it was when I finished installing, and maybe I'm OCD, but I'm being driven crazy by this problem;
I went to back up some pics I took today, and when I went to open a data carrying CDR which has pics on it...
I'm fed up with just accepting that it takes a long time (3-4 minutes at least) to delete print jobs from my computer. I've got what I'd call an above average setup -P4 2.4, 768MB RAM, 533MHz mobo, WinXP Home. Is it normal that it should take forever to delete print jobs I wanna get rid of? It...
I'm trying to manually install GF3 drivers, but unless I disable Plug and Play, XP installs its own MS drivers not matter what I do. Can this lovely 'feature' be turned off? If is disable P&P I can't install them at all so that's not good.
Thanks
Hey all,
I'm trying to flash my BIOS on my XP computer, and it's gotten me into more projects and trouble. I wanted to create an XP boot disk so I could do the flash, but I could only get a disk to let me access an A and B drive in DOS, I can't get at my c:\ where I unzipped the BIOS files...
Hey there, I'm wondering if someone can help me here. I have a large avi file, around 700MB, that I'm trying to use so I can learn to make a VideoCD. I'm kinda giving up until I have a new faster comp, but XP won't let be delete it. It says it is being used by another person or program, even...
Hey everyone, I'm one item away from building my system, my motherboard comes in on Thurs!
I have a question regarding the amount of power cables I'm going to need.
I have a 300W power supply with my case, and I picked up two 12V fans the same day. They both take either the 4 pin male or female...
When I right click on the desktop in Windows 98 the usual popup comes up, but I'm wondering if there's a way to change what's in the "New" section of it. There must be a registry entry somewhere that's adding things here, and I'd like to lean it up some. Also, whan I right click on the Start...
Hey everyone, I'm trying to set up the internet on two computers at my place and I'm wondering how to do it. I've done a bit of research, but I want to make sure I know how to do it.
I'm building my own computer around Christmas, and I'm using a PII450 right now, so I was hoping I could have...
I'm saving money to build my first computer (first I've built, not owned :) ), and although I consider myself pretty knowledgeable in comparison to the general public, and I've gotten just about everything else chosen, I'm having trouble finding a MB I want because I'm clueless about 'em.
The...
Hey all, I was referred to this forum from another one I usually frequent, and I'm hoping someone here may be able to help me. I did a search for an answer to this question here and didn't find one, so here goes;
Will Windows 98 work ok on a machine with a P4 processor? I'm thinking building my...
