hi can someone please help me out on this,last week i got my pc wiped out and back to first day and it was great,good and fast,then few days later i got broadband, installed norton and jst ever since then it has slowed down so much,so then i took it into a pc store,upgraded the memory from 256mb to 2.25gb hopein it would make a big diffrence,but i have to say i dont think it changed a thing,the memory that was instaled was ddr1,i know thats the old memory so is that why its still slow?or could it be something else or is the pc jst too old and i jst wasted $250 on it?i really hope someone can help me out with this because i realy dont know what else i can do,thanking you all very much......

I've asked this question before and got nowhere. Everytime Ido something this wretched message comes up "Winzip Self-Extractor-rundll32..." It will not let me open remove/add programms or anything else. I did not install Winzip, so how the heck did it get there. I've installed every "solution" I can think of - spyware, hijacking, registry everything, but I am still getting this wretched thing and can't do a lot of things that you normally expect to do on the computer.

I bought a Seagate 320 Gig free agent desktop external HD. It works great but as soon as I hook up my 80 GIG IPOD video the seagate stops responding. I've updated all USB drivers and chipset driver. Also changed drive letter to "Q", out of range of my ipod's "H". They both work fine appart, but as soon as I hook them up toghetter the seagate gives up. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I tried looking into the drive itself, but it wont let me, since the programs in there are necessary for windows. I've also deleted more than i should of my programs, and i downloaded IObit SmartDefrag, but the percentage still wont move. Also, Chkdsk /f appears when i try to defrag my C drive, and I have no idea what it means. I would IMMENSELY appreciate help because this is the only computer me and my family have. Thanks in advance for any advise!

While with mp3 files or smaller files are downloaded systematically.
I use 128kbps modem.
So, tell me if i will be able to dwld a movie and how?

I have never been able to open a torrent file in my life. I can download them OK, but when I try to open them with a torrent-converter program, it never works.
Does anyone have a link to a torrent-converter I can download for free?

First, my keyboard went mad, half the keys stopped working. Then, when i would turn it on, it would say something about the floppy drive not working. Then one day it just wouldn't turn on. The fan doesnt even start. Someone suggested replacing the power supply. Is this common with eMachines?

hey guys, need your advice. my pink vaio comes with optical mouse but it won't install.
error msg: Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while
attempting to install it.
USB Browser Mouse
An error occurred during the installation of the device.
The driver installation file for this device is missing a necessary entry.
This may be because the INF was written for Windows 95 or later. Contact your
hardware vendor.
If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and
check the support section for driver software.

it's funny cos i can use any other mouse except the pink mouse that comes along with the package.
what needs to be done? thanks a lot.

I live with my parents now and there's a wire from the modem to the router, from the modem into their computer, and from their home computer back into the router. I am moving out, and so the only computer I will have is my laptop. Can I wire the router in such a way that the only thing it connects to is the modem? (Without having to loop it through a stationary computer tower) Really, I just don't want to plug in my laptop to use the net, and I don't want to buy another computer.
