I have recently bought a new desktop computer which has vista basic installed. I had to have a new router to access the internet but now find that when I switch on my computer it is automatically connected to the internet. I have limited access with bt and this worries me. I also have no way of turning my connection off other than switching my router off. Has anyone else have this problem and have they solved it

I scanned the face of a €20 note to finish an abstract piece with strips of it and when I tried to print it 1/2 the image came out and read "http://www.rulesforuse.org". How did my printer recognise it? Will I be getting a knock on the door?!. Thanks.

I am going to buy the E6850 chip as the price is MUCH lower than the top Quad-core chip and the performance differences are neglible. ...however, as Quad Core support games are going to be released in the next few years or so, I would hate to have to buy a new computer to take full advantage of it. Are there any motherboards that support the 1333MHz FSB and are easily upgradeable to a quad-core chip when the prices drop?

My motherboard specs list:

-Dual-channel DDRI & DDR2 memory architecture
-2 x 184-pin DDR DIMM or 2 x 240-pin DDR2 DIMM socket support up to 2 GB
- Support DDR400/333 DDR SDRAM or DDR2 533/400 DDR2 SDRAM

Is this all the information i'll need to insure the new RAM I buy will be safe for my computer?

I'm a person who likes to listen to some music, look at pics and watch some movies. I definitely don't need vista on this PC so that's out of the question. I doubt I'll be using it for any gaming. I need a computer that'll be good for surfing the net. I also want to use word, excel, powerpoint and many other necessary programs. As anybody, I don't want this comuter to crash out of nowhere. I think the most memory I'll need on this computer is 40GB.

Can anybody give me an estimate on how much will this kind of PC cost me? For a bonus (higher chance for 5 points) give me a link to an exisiting PC that will fulfill my needs.

I thought I had a 350 watt psu but now I realize that I'm an idiot and only have 250 watts (not recommended for a 7950GT video card). My computer has had a few random restarts but usually overnight and not when I was actually taxing the system.

This morning I come to the computer login screen even though I hadn't restarted last night (this makes me suspect the psu). So I try to log in and then click.... off the computer goes.

Now when I try to boot up I'm only getting partial response such the led's turning on and the fan for both the heat sink and the psu.

I would like for someone to confirm my suspicions, tell me what and idiot I am for installing a 7950 on a 250 watt power supply, and maybe tell me if there's likely to be any damage to my hardware from a couple of restarts that I tried while troubleshooting.

i have 2 computers, say A and B.

A has the local ip 192.168.0.1
A has the real ip 195.174.23.75
B has the local ip 192.168.0.2

As you see, A is directly connecting to the internet. B is connecting to the internet through A.

My question:
If I start a web server on computer B, how can it be possible for me to accept connections from the INTERNET? I mean, I want B computer available for accepting connections from internet.

I had buy online with GKWorld (an ebay store) for a DVD on 26-Jun-07. It is to be shipped by USPS First Class Varied.

On 29-Jun-07, I received a notice from USPS state "Electronic Shipping Info Received" with a Label Number.

Then no news, until now. So were my DVD.

I e-mail USPS customer service, they ask me to call 1-800-222-1811. I called, but it said information not avaiable.

The I e-mail GKWorld, but no reply. Call their phone, no answer (and I have to wakeup in the middle of night to call them!)

One of the USPS reply read like this, "I apologize I do not have that information. You will need to contact the International Call Center. Some people have more luck getting through if they wait on the line for a representative to assist them."

Where should I call? What can I do?
Can anyone help?
Do you think I had been scammed?
