Computers & Internet - 11 June 2007

I am going to get a new computer and I was wondering if anyone could tell me what to look for as far as RAM or memory or gigs or whatever, because I have no idea about any of that stuff.
I use the computer mainly for surfing the net, music (burning/ripping cds & using Ipod), photo stuff (digital camera & photoshop) and using Word.
What would you suggest in a computer for me, because the guys at Best Buy are very unhelpful.

It didn't used to do this? There isn't a save password button or anything? Any ideas? Its just a box that asks for username and Password.

I have a desktop pc and a notebook (Acer 5610). Whenever i try to send big files (600 mb+) it takes 6 to 10 mins and sometimes more. The router or the network card says 50 mbps or something like that, according to that shouldn't it take very few mins to transfer large files?

I changed out my video card yesterday. A friend of mine wanted me to test out one that he had so I went to do so. His card is an NVidia Geforce FX5200 128MB AGP. When I put his card in the monitor would not wake up on boot. I decided to put my card back in, thinking his card was shot. I have an NVidia GeForce 3 64MB AGP. When I tried to boot my computer normally, with my card, the monitor would not wake up. I have an old Expert Color S3 Trio/Virge 4MB PCI card I tried using in case the CMOS changed back to PCI video instead of AGP. Same thing happens. Monitor doesn't wake up. That's three video card and I can't even get to a boot screen to go into setup. The motherboard is getting power, I know, cause the fan's come on. Could a video card have messed up the MoBo though? I'm stumped on the problem. Any ideas on how to fix the issue?

One of our classrooms has no internet connection. To hook it up will cost us a fortune. Can we use a router instead? The modem is connected to our server (windows 2003). How many computers can we connect to a router and how far will the signal go? Thank you.

I want to buy a laptop. And a computer with 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo cost almost 500 more than a computer with 2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. Is there really a big difference between two? Which would you suggest? Thanks

I just got rid of a mega-virus and got everything to run again on my pc, all except Internet Explorer. It keeps closing out and giving me an error message about being blocked by DEP or something like that because it was damaged by the virus. Anyone have any idea what I should do? I thought about contacting microsoft but it takes for ever to post on their site.

Hi, at a cafe that offers Wi-Fi, my computer cannot connect to their wireless internet, while everybody else in the cafe is able to. Also, at my small office which just set up office network, only my computer cannot connect. Why is that and how can I connect like everybody else? I can connect to ADSL at home and at other wireless internet places. I use Windows XP, and Symantec Client Firewall (and have Windows Firewall off). I thought maybe my firewall is the cause of the problem, so I tried turning it off (for long enough to try connecting), but it still does not connetct. At the cafe, when I ask windows to look for wireless network, it does find the network for the cafe, but does not connect (although it's supposed to be an automatic connection), and when I click "Connect", it tries for a while, but says it cannot connect. If you can offer how I can try changing settings (on Windows, on my firewall, anything else), or suggest any other reason, that would be great. Thank you.
