    YACT - turn signals won't work

    OK, so I get out of my late class at the University of Memphis. Its 7 at night, dark, in an area of town that is known for its ghetto-ness (indeed the whole city is known for its ghetto-ness but "Da Mound" is extra-extra ghetto). There have actually been three reported armed robberies in the...

    Monitor on "power save mode"

    :disgust: I unplugged my computer and moved it onto a new desk. Plugged everything back up, now the monior gets thrown into 'power save mode' telling me to press a key or move the mouse after windows loads (but I can see the bios load up). If I press a key or move the mouse, nothing happens...

This probably has something to do with the fact that I have lived in the South for...

    need some wifi advice

    When trying to connect my new computer (XP pro) to an already established ad-hoc network that I set up using an XP Home computer as the server and a 2000 laptop as a client, the new computer refuses to connect. It is not a firewall issue, as I disabled that; all the passcodes are correct, using...
