Do you have an opinion about that? Who sends such an email and for what purpose?

Ok i have a older pc and its CMOS battery was replaced about a year ago with no issues. As of late im getting the dreaded blue screen of death and have checked everything software wise to no avail. I noticed that when the pc table is hit that it causes the sys dump to happen so im thinking i may have a hardware issue thats causing the dump.( I just moved my P.C. a few days ago perhaps knocking something loose.) when i opened it up to check conections i didnt notice anything off hand. Ram cards are well conected and so on. I then checked my CMOS battery and noticed it was not to secure in its socket. I ve fixed the "spring" and now it fits snugly inside and dose'nt move so im wondering is it possiable that the loose Btry was the reason for the sys dumps?

I downloaded an emulator, and the rom, but when I go to play the game, the quality is terrible. It runs fine, but the game has flickering boxes and stuff all over the place. Is it the ROM or the emulator that's screwy?

I have a WorkBook with 5400 Names, Addresses, and various other info.
There are duplicate addresses
I have a column with header "Status"
This Column 'B' has four cell values of Expired, Withdrawn, Active, or Active Contingent
I need to do a Mail Merge and don't want to have duplicates.
I do not need to mail to addresses with Rows that have Status as 'Active' or 'Active Contingent' these ones I cut from Sheet 1 and pasted into sheet 2.
There are duplicate addresses where the same address is listed as both active, expired, and withdrawn, or any combination of the three.
Addresses are in Coumn I on both sheets
Now I need a way to merge Column I on both sheet 1 and 2 and have Excel transfer data to sheet three.
Sheet three would only have Expired or Withdrawal Listings (Column B) and no duplicates of any addresses as well as no 'Active' status'
I hope this makes sense it really is not that complicated I am just missing it.

The last time I bought a desktop pc, only needed to know the most current version of pentium. I go to research now, theres not a single description including the word perntium, I am hit with terminology I don't recognize, options I can't tell if I need , bytes have become gigs HELP!!! I am on a budget and just want a pc thats funtional. What the heck does dual core mean and do I need it? If one doesn't choose dual core, what does one choose instead? What size HD? How much RAM? Anyone with advice on the best computer for the best price, and the specs. I should look for when buying would be much appreciated.

I am not the type of person who plays games on my computer. I only use the internet for myspace, youtube, yahoo, and homework. If I am not doing any of those things I am not on the computer.

What types of things would I have to learn about Linux to be able to use is well?

When I turn on my computer it goes through the load screens and passes the welcome screen but the OS never opens...it goes to a screen where it just displays my desktop wallpaper with no start menu (task manager opens with ctrl/alt/delete, that's about it). I tried booting up in safe mode to fire up system restore or fix the problem manually but I have the same problem in safe mode...no start menu or applications ever boot up.

Is there a way to open system restore from the boot menu or any other ways to fix this problem without formatting my hard drive?
