Computers & Internet - 7 July 2007

I tried to do a system restore (display properties/desktop is totally hosed after an install/uninstall of Webshots...it's looking at My Pictures instead of Windows) and it won't restore. I went back to July 1 and no go. The above problem just started today. Any idea why my restore won't work? Thanks!

It prints dark and a lot of extra brown and greenish colors. Whites look grey. I have tried the manual and done the color checks and we took it apart and cleaned it. No change. The ink cartridges do not appear to be leaking. What can it be?

I want to add a printer to the server but i do not have a usb connector for it and i've been using the parallel port for it for a couple years. Now, my question, MOST printers now a days are USB connection but again,, I don't have a USB. how can I connect a printer? Do I have to keep using a Parallel port? can I start using a wireless connection?

I recently purchased an external hard disk (Seagate 500GB eSata). It does not support USB or firewire. The box says that it needs to be connected to PCI 2.2 or higher card slot. So, how can I connect it to my laptop. Is there a particular laptop card available, or eSata to Firewire connector. Thanks in advance!

Right now I am using a Sony VAIO desktop with a 3.4 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor. I'm considering buying a macbook for the upcoming school year. The macbooks have a 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor.

Speedwise, what is the comparison between the two processors?

Thanks :)

I bought a new Acer X171 17" LCD plug-n-play monitor because my old CRT finally died. I run Windows XP and the computer is eMachines from about 2001. Gig Intel Celeron processor, 3D AGP Graphics from Pentium. The problem is that after Windows loads and is running, the image on the new monitor is twitchy or jumpy (shaky?). Clearly it's a setting in Windows that is making it do this because when the computer is first started up the image is fantastic. Even when Windows is loading, the image is just perfect. The issue only presents itself when Windows is actually running. What am I missing? I set the monitor exactly how it said to in the paperwork but it's still weird, constantly. What can I do to fix this?

Pleae help me - my eyes are starting to go buggy because of this! :)
