I want a reliable internet connection at a decent speed, but it doesn't have to be the fastest. I also want a good price and minimal startup costs. Thanks in advance for your recommendations.

If one of the systems gets infected, how easy, if at all, will the other os get that same virus?

Today my computer has started to randomly restart on me. I will be working and my computer will suddenly freeze and then reset as if someone had hit the reset button. I had this problem a few months ago and ended up replacing nearly every component in the computer: power supply, motherboard, CPU, memory, hard drives, memory stick reader, etc. It seemed to go away but it has been reoccurring again.

A stress test of the system doesn't seem to produce any results and nothing seems to be logged in DR Watson, System or Application logs. Can anybody recommend anything I can do to resolve this problem? I'm about ready to replace the motherboard once again because it seems so much like a hardware problem, not a software problem.

I recieved a message saying Im am low on virtual memory! I was going to ask what that means but I noticed here aothers have already asked that question so I read those responses! I am wondering now though Does this mean I may have a virus! I am asking this because in a couple of the answers I read people were saying it had to do with having a virus! Others though said it was nothing to worry about that it happens sometimes!!??

Hi,
I'm planning on buying a Linksys WRT54G at Circuit City for $49.99. I've been reading some reviews from cnet.com and notebookreview.com and it seems that it's a pretty decent router. Two quick questions about the WRT54G:
1. I have a cable modem and cable internet connection. If I use my laptop wirelessly from about 40 feet from the router, will I experience cable-modem-like speed?
and
2. How difficult is the setup on a scale from 1-10? I'm not an expert on these kinds of things, but I'm also not a complete dummy. Thanks in advance.

I am trying to fix my d drive, at the moment it won't recognise or play cd/dvd's I have tried deleting and reinstalling the driver.

I have tried right clicking the drive to explore and is says access denied.

I have clicked on format and it says I don't have suffieicent rights to perform this opperation.

I think I have a phillips dvd-ram sdvd8821 drive but I think it may be corrupted or missing.

This is all the info I have, this is really annoying me because there doesn't seem to be a remedy tothe problem.

All I wanna do is listen to a cd and its really annoying me...

Any help is kindly received

I have a paypal account. I am wanting to purchase something from Barns & noble using my paypal account but I dont have any money in my paypal account at this time. My question is will paypal go to my checking account and take the funds to cover it? I have napster and thats what they do but im not sure if it depends on the company or paypal. If I add funds to my account it takes a few days to go through so I wouldnt know if it made it in time for when they get my order.

My friend has sbc dsl on his desktop, and i wanted to connect to the internet using the wire connected to the desktop with my laptop. My laptop shows that it is connected to local connection, but no internet. Since the dsl doesn't autoconnect on the desktop, my friend had 2 click on a icon "sbcis" and press "connect". Do i have 2 make a "sbcis" on my laptop or is there some software to install?

So right now, almost everywhere I go to, there's something that pops up and says "Click to run an Active-X control on this web page". I have to do that everytime just about.

And I noticed some of the web sites I go on, like here for example, some parts are missing. Like on myspace, where the music player is suppose to be, it says

"Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Click here to get the latest flash player."

I clicked the link and it says I have the latest version of Java, and I can't download Macromedia because nothing pops up for me to install. My dad says I have the latest version, I think.
And also I can't click on some links.

The myspace music players were working not too long ago.

*****And I can't read my yahoo email for some reason. The whole page is fine, except for the message- which is completely blank. So I cant see what people wrote.

And I dont see a link to answer questions.

I have Internet Explorer 7.0 but I had problems before I go it. It's been around 2 weeks since I got these problems.
