They fear us using up a great deal of bandwidth for streaming music and videos, but I just want to be able to read something! Anything! It's all blocked! With as much down time as we have, you'd think they'd be more forgiving. Select news sites were purposely left open (so please, don't respond with any "You shouldn't be reading during work anyway" advice, as they condone it and understand that we're not busy all day), but the news, despite its name, does indeed get old.

I have a 4 year old computer who's power supply just took a dump. I removed the hard drive and put it in a different computer so that I can access the data.
I placed the old hard drive into the other computer as a slave. How can I access the files in the old drive?
I clicked on the "c:drive" on MY COMPUTER. It listed the folders of all the users in the old hard drive but it does not list the files that were on the old drive.

Please help.

I have two DELL Desktop PC's both running Windows XP. I have an old Compaq running Windows 98 I'm using as a server of sorts where I want to drop files for storage to keep the local Dell hard drives clean. I can see the Compaq shared C: drive from both DELLS, but the Compaq cannot see the shared C: drives on the DELLS. I have set security at Mid level, but I'm obviously missing something. What am I missing?

I copyed the files onto this disk on my computer at home and now I'm trying to open them on this other computer but it just keeps saying "the system cannot read from the specified device". I checked to make sure I could open them from the disk when I was at home to make sure it worked and it did. What's the deal?

Would you please tell me what broadband you have, how much it costs you a month and most importantly - is it good/worth the money? I'm trying to persuade my mum to get it and we need to know what is the best deal. I'm pretty decided on unlimited..anyone else got that?

And I don't want anyone giving me 'yes' as their answer! Thanks

My wife has an HP laptop that the motherboard crapped out on. We are trying to figure out if we can pull the harddrive out of it, and somehow install it into a destop system (internally or externally) so we can get some of the files off of it. Any ideas or suggestions. (I'd rather not let geek squad do it)

I purchased an inexpensive laptop recently, on cleanence. It came with Windows Vista. My BF has the same exact laptop, his came with XP. Mine is very slow, and I was wondering if it was because the hard drive is small. how do you upgrade this? is it better to do internal or external? How do you do it?? Help Help Help!!!!!

I want to share the network with a mate, but don't want anyone else to see it. Is there a way that i can make the network hidden and then on his laptop which is running vista, type in the settings of my router so that only his laptop can find it?

Many thanks

A friend of mine uploaded a video and later deleted it. However, someone else downloaded the video (using an illegal program, i assume) and uploaded it to HIS account, changing the title/tags to something vulgar (in a foreign language I had translated) and embedding it on his pornographic website (there is nothing bad about the video, idk why he embedded it there). There is also a link to his website in the title of the video and the description. I have contacted youtube countless times and flagged the video inappropriate yet no action has been taken. My friend contacted youtube and they sent her an email 3 days ago saying "content has been removed" ...yet the video is still there! The girls in the video are under 18, i'm thinking this could be classified as sexual harassment. Any tips on how to get youtube to remove this video? Should I send them another e-mail?
