I like watching streaming and dvd movies on my computer. My problem is that after 20 minutes of no activity (even when the movie is playing) my monitor goes black and gives me a "No Signal" message and then turns itself off. This has occasionally caused my computer to crash. To me, it feels like the computer wants to go into like a sleep or screen saver mode, because it happens after 20 minutes. I have tested this by moving my mouse at intervals during a movie and then have experienced no problems.

I assume there is something built into the monitor to turn it off if it does not seem to be in use.

Any ideas?

-I bought a 14.1" HP pavilion dv2419us from Circuit City and the dimensions that were stated online said Height= 9.3", Width=13.2", and the Depth="1.5".
-I'm confused b/c the 15.4's dimensions are kinda opposite to the 14.1" b/c the Height=1.6", Width=14.1" and Depth=10.1".
-SO how can the height be so small for the 15.4"?
-is the website wrong? Is teh Height and Depth mixed up? Which one is right?
-how do you measure your laptop size?
-I am so confused - I can't buy a laptop sleeve unless I find out what i'm doing.

It says works with Windows Vista. I have Windows Vista- Business and was skeptical as of whether to install it or not. Will it slow down my computer? I had an HP and I had a few peoblems with it freezing up, but when I installed it, it helped in some areas, but slowed down as well(probably due to the fact that I had automatic updates on for it). If I was to install this program on to my new Toshiba Tecra-A8 laptop, would it slow it down?(I'll be sure to turn off automatic updates for the software)

I can not find good tutorials on web, so I want to ask, what do I have to do to make my php web site more secure: what basic and advanced things do I have to do to prevent crackings of my web site! I think it is really important, so I would like to hear as much information about that as it is possible, so please write everyone who knows anything. I am not poor php programmer, but now I want to know about security. Thanks!

When it starts again I press the turn off key again and then it shuts down. It started doing this about 4 days ago.

I want to create a wedding invitation, and have a template that I found on the internet (not a Word template). What I want to do is create a form where I input the names of the people and it will automatically put the name in the right place on the template.

Does anyone know what I mean? I have learned to do this before so I know it exists.

Okay...So I am definitely NOT a computer kid. But just yesterday, I started getting POP UPS from Internet Explorer 7, while using Firefox. I uninstalled IE7, but IE6 still exists because its preinstalled with Windows XP, right? I need to get rid of IE6 because I cannot take these popups. The pop up blocker is on, but it automatically turns off when each pop up happens. I'm not getting like porn for pop ups...Just random things. False virus scans, BS win a ps3..That kinda junk. I just need to get rid of IE6. I cannot find it in my Add/Remove section in the Control Panel. Please do not post here to say "Sorry, don't know." This isnt a place to rack up a post count. I am in serious need for instructions. I've screwed up our computers too many times, and we can't afford another one :S

I feel like an idiot, but I have no clue how to past a web site URL in an email so that a friend can go directly to the exact page I need them to see, not just the website.

For example, if I wanted to go to www.petco.com but wanted them to be able to link to the long URL that appears in the address bar on pet carriers, how do I do that? If you are lauging and wondering how I have survived this long, well, I've never had a need to do it and normally, I'd just say go to www.petco.com and do a search on their site for pet carriers.

I'd like to knopw how to do it the correct way. Please explain as if I am ignorant, as I truly am w/ some computer things. I really only use it to do fantastic things w/ photos and eBay. LOL THANKS

my laptop has a wirless switch.when its off theres a little light thats orange, and when you turn it on the light is supposed to turn blue, even if you are not connected to the internet. When I turn the switch on the light stays orange. And my wireless internet isn't working. The HP wireless assistant won't open either. Is there anyway I could fix this without having the internet on that computer, and without having to purchase anything? What's even wrong with it?

It seems that everything wireless has erased from my computer

Crap, I can't uninstall the program, It keeps asking for a password but I don't recall ever inputting one.

What the heck should I do? I'll do anything.

I don't remember my password, Not even if I ever did place one.

Don't know whether it is a temporary gliche in the system. We are with AOL. Since last night the font size on the AOL homepage, plus any searches and even other web pages like YA - the font has become very small for no reason. I don't think i've done anything but my girl was playing with the keyboard. How do I get the font size back to normal. Thanks.

I had a hotmail account that I rarely use anymore. I switched to gmail awhile ago. I sent out an e-mail informing everyone on my contacts list of my new gmail address. Most people now e-mail me at my current address, but a few dumb ones still send mail to the hotmail one, which means I periodically have to check it. I hate doing this because it's so full of garbage and spam that wading through it seems like a chore. Is there anything I can do to have all e-mails automatically sent from my hotmail address to my gmail one? Or do I have to send out yet another e-mail informing people of my new e-mail address?
