Computers & Internet - 8 July 2007

I bought a new emachine computer and its a desktop home pc, When I load the disc into it to install the printer which is a HP 1300 it goes thru all the normal steps for loading it until it says that the administrator has to approve it to be installed,, My question is how do I sign onto my own computer as an administrator so I can instal this printer?

So it's an Athlon 2400+
At the moment, there is 2x256 DDR ram stick at 333Mhz.
Would i experience an increase in performance if i add 1 more stick of 512 DDR ram at 266 Mhz?
On a side note, there are only 3 ram slots on the motherboard.

Yesterday, my anti virus detected a pahador.f trojan in C:\Windows\Browser.exe I quarantined it immediately. I thought i was safe, this morning, I turned on the computer, and my firewall said that Windows Explorer was trying to connect to the internet. This had never happened before, and since the virus was in it, i denied its access. Now i really want to remove it, but if i remove it, will it remove the browser.exe file which my computer needs to run?

I have Windows XP SP2, and have recently bought Microsoft Flight Simulator X Deluxe (about 3 weeks ago). I want to play FSX on my PC without any problems.

However, FSX runs really slow, the picture keeps juddering, and the sound (ATC Voice etc.) starts and stops when it wants to. Overall, the game is just not worth playing, as it is that bad. I have turned all the settings (on FSX) to low resolution, and still, I have a juddering picture and very poor graphics.

I have over 42gb of space on my PC, so memory isn't a problem. I have checked the back of the FSX box, and my PC is fine with the system requirements (processor: 3.0 Ghz etc.)

Is there any settings I can change to help FSX run better? I know I could buy Vista, but I don't really want to get it for another 2 years. What can I do/change/add to my computer to make FSX the game it really should be?

Desperate help needed! Thanks!

Okay, my computer froze on me, so I had to turn it off. I turned it back on about half an hour later. Everything came back on, except my printer. It wont turn back on. I tried unplugging the cord from my hard drive to the printer. But that didn't work. But before I did that I tried to turn on my printer by the on/off switch. That didn't work. I use Windows XP Professional. I also have a Hawlett Packard printer.
What do I do to make my printer turn on? Because I want to upload pictures from my digital camera to my printer and I can't do it with the printer not working.

i keep my laptop on a flat surface &its generally okay with staying cool and everything, apart from when i play DVD's on it, then it gets quite hot from the bottom even when the fans working well, so i was wondering if a laptop cooler would help.
and could you recommend a specific one, i use an acer aspire 300.
