I already have a HTPC in the living rooma vista box with tuner card, 512mb dvi grafix card, 1.5MB ddr2 ram, 250gig internal and 500gb external harddrive space... so storage of files is not the major factor...

in the bedroom i have an xp box 512mb ddr ram, 160gb and 80gb internal hd, I would like to upgrade, or add a secondary PC into the bedroom set up (i want the current rig to be set up exclusively for skype, the livingroom PC does that now)

asides from the cost advantage (around $400 for xbox360 and around $600 for a vista machine) are there any advantages with going with an xbox 360 over a new vista HTPC for the bedroom... I know the xbox will act as an extender for my VMC content...

could someone provide pros and cons for using either set up...

I already plan on getting a PS3 when GTA IV comes out.. but perhaps, with an xbox360 set up I will just get the game for XBOX (there is supposed to be exclusive downloadable content for the xbox version anyway)

BT only provide 12 month contracts and I can't get a phone through anyone else either for less that 12 months. Therefore I can't get broadband that relies on a landline as I don't have one! So I need to find a true wireless internet and preferably cheaply!

I dont get any signal when I switch my monitor to digital input. The windows properites says I can have dual monitors, do I need to switch to the second monitor for the DVI-D output? Really driving me nutz someone help me. My card is a Raedon X300 and the monitor is samsung 960BW. Both have DVI-D, and the DVI cable is dual link. Should it be single link? I dont know the difference.

It all started with one of the 2 user accounts not showing up on the startup page. So it directly goes to my account intead of letting us pick which user to access. I solved that with restoring to the last date it was okay. I then renewed my subscription with my anti-virus program and it asked me to restart which i did.

Now,
1. There is only 1 use account seen on the start up page (good thing the files and documents for the other account still there)

2. The task bar and program icons do not load (ever) just the wall paper.

3. I cannot use the Task Manager because everytime i do CTRL-ALT-DEL it would say administrator disabled task mgr (but i'm the administrator!)

4. Tried running it in safe mode but then it does not load the windows xp. stays in the black page forever.

SO this actually means i cannot access anything. H.E.L.P!

my current laptop has 2 RAM slots. One of those have 512 MB RAM on it and the other one is free. Can i use any sized Ram like 256 Mb or 1 Gb on the free slot or does it need to be 512 MB only? The maximum supported for this laptop is 2 GB !

I have a Compaq Presario 555NR notebook. I ran the scan from crucial.com and it said I currently have 512 MB of DDR PC2-5300. It said to install DDR2 PC2-4200, that it was compatible. Can I mix these 2 types?

I'm from the U.K, and the typical Internet speed here is 2MBps with $50 (=American $) charge per month.
Is it the same in the States?
