I'm looking for a very fast WMA to MP3 Converter, as I have about 2.25 GB to convert and I don't want it to take forever. I don't need DRM removal or anything, just a very fast WMA->MP3 batch converter. Freeware, shareware, or commercial is fine.

Thanks

1) I use my computer every day. It is better when I'm done for the day to have it sleep, hibernate, or shut down, and why?

2) Is it better to use it until the battery needs charging, then do so, or just keep it plugged in?

Thanks! I just want to maximize my laptop life and would like to know what will help ensure this.

Out of no where windows vista wants to install my video card which I have been using with windows vista for a few months. I checked the "don't show this message again button" and didn't install the video card becuase logically one can conclude that there is no reason to install something that is already in the computer and working fine. Now, my graphics are different and I regret hitting the "don't show this message again button". How do I install the video card?

I already went to the Install hardware thing and I couldn't find my graphics card which is a Nvidia Geforce 6500.

I have had a new processor put in lately and ever since then my nVIDIA Geforce FX 5200 Graphics card isn't starting!
When ever i went to play a new game e.g Cricket 2007 and Roller coaster Tycoon 3 Platinum edition it didn't start and the mouse pointer just goes to the to the top left hand corner and nothing happens!
I Went into Device Manager and it had a yellow exclamation mark next to the name of my driver, so i looked in properties and it said it couldn't start.

Some other person said that it might be the graphics card in the processor conflicting with it and i would need to go into my BIOS setup! If so, how would i do this?

My brother has been messing around with computers lately, mainly on the internet, and my dad and i arent comfortable with him using our respective PCs. i have an old computer (im writing the specs from memory):

Pentium III 800 Mhz intel processor
256 MB RAM(actually less, about 204)
50 Gb HDD
56k modem

cant remember anything else.
Do you think this old heap of junk can be cleaned up and given to him until its beyond repair? its 8 years old.

another thing is that it has win98 installed. i want to reformat it but dad lost the installation disk years back, when i was a kid. win98 doesnt have support anymore, so now what... is there another (hopefully free) OS that can be installed on thes specs? or should i just leave the OS as is?

thanks for your help.

Do you think the on line ink catridges are as good as the ones that cost an arm and a leg at say...Office Max? Can someone guide me to a good color printer?

The screen on my laptop went black and would not work. The only way I could get it to work was by plugging it in to an external screen. I took it in to have an estimate done. The place says they will diagnose the problem for free, and fix it, if what they do doesnt fix it, then you dont have to pay.
They called us and said the problem was a piece on the motherboard that needed to be replaced. They call us the next day said when they did that it enabled the screen to come on, but only for a minute before it would shut off again. Said it looks like liquid got into the motherboard and fried a switch there that turns the screen on and the only way to fix that is to buy a new motherboard. They said its not worth the money and want us to trade it in for one of their laptops. They said motherboard would cost $500 and then there would be $90 installation fee.
My laptop is not even 3 years old, its a HP Pavilion.
Is this a scam? Do they just want my laptop?
