I am aware of the different methods one can take to repair a stuck pixel in their LCD screen. I appear to have a green and a red one on my screen, and i was wondering if i run the crazy seizure color program thing, how long can i run it for....and will it damage and other pixels or something with the screen over time. In addition, if the other procedures work, ie rubbing the pixel....and tips or something because it doesn't seem to work for me. Also, i believe the pixel CAME with the laptop....i did not aquire it over time, i was wondering if that made any difference? LAST question :)....if i have a stuck pixel and i can't fix it within X amount of time...is there a threat that it will turn dead???

please help guys, just purchased this laptop today and i don't want to configure everything again T.T

I have been using I2map.com to map peoples Ip addresses coming to my webpage. If someone claims to be in Europe is it possible their IP address shows as America?? Can IP addresses be portable on laptops?

I'm sorry for this obviously ignorant question, but I haven't used dialup in almost a decade and I forgot how it works.

I am moving to the country and need internet and all I can get is dialup (or satellite which is crazy uber expensive). I never use a land line, only cell phones. Do I need to establish telephone service with a local company and pay for phone service I will never use in order to have internet, or can I get some sort of deal where I will have access to the internet but no voice?

Thanks!

I want to make my own number but every time I put in number 1 then go to the next line, it automatically gets to number 2 on its own and I don't want it doing that. The list I copied and pasted from somewhere else is already numbered and I was trying to put something besides each statement but it continued to be numbered. How do I turn it off? The help menu and office asst. was no help.

I was on my laptop just sitting here listening to music and then i got this message.

C:\users\Landon\desktop is not accessible

The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.

the only option i had was to press OK. so when i did it deleted all the icons on my desktop and everything i had saved to my desktop. I use Windows Vista and i have a Dell XPS M1710. The laptop works fine like i can do anything that i used to do. but i cannot save anything to the desktop or put any icons on my desktop. Help if you can...I was just goin to reformat...but that is a bit drastic if there is another solution.

let's say, I have a GIF file. I want to erase those folders to make it more nice. Now, the problem is, when I try to save it, the final product goes only with 1 frame. Is there a program that edits it? or can I edit it in Adobe Photoshop 7 without any damage to the GIF?
