hi.. well i just got a new laptop, and it got a Wi-Fi ; so i was wondering if there is some kinda machine or hardware that i can plug my internet cable into and it'll give me wireless internet feeds to the Wi-Fi in my laptop so that i will be able to use my cable connexion " wirelessly" anywhere i want in my house and of course with privacy ( access protected by a password or some kinda security feature).... if there is such a machine then please give me some links so that i can see em and compare prices... any other ideas will be very helpful. thanks anyways ...

I am looking for 2 driver softwares:
1) Printer driver for HP Deskjet 840C driver for Windows 98.
2) Scanner driver for Canon scanner - Canoscan FB 630 U (For Windows-XP)

I have checked the websites of both HP & Canon but HP has removed the driver from its site for win-98 and Canon driver isn't working.

Is there anyone who has got a driver disk for that and if you can please send it to me thru email - bhatnagarashish@yahoo.com

I want to start a web site that people can download music from and pay per download, these bands featured on this site will be not signed and will be up and coming bands and thus not be subjected to the red tape that comes with trying to sell the music from bands that have already signed for record companies.

I need some more power in my memory. At last I have found out the specifications of my motherboard but am not sure which of these are essential to ensure compatibility.
It's PC2700 (PC2100 will also go) and 184 pin. Apart from these what else is important.
Please answer only if you really do know!

My son has a rel problem with his Dell laptop. A friend told him that the laptop runs on battery whether or not it is plugged in to AC and this depletes the battery life. It is also a problem in that you think you are fully charged, but since the computer has actually been draining the battery, you might unplug when you are near the bottom of the batttery cycle and find your battery is flat in just a few minutes. This happens to my son all the time, so I believe the description. This has happened since the laptop was new, also. He has had it for a year and a half and he's on his second factory battery. Is this normal?

What brand is the best for battery life and performance?

Thanks for your suggestions.

They would need to be fairly basic.
The computer works for 10 or 15 minutes then 'freezes'.

Or can it be just anything with the same Qualities? I need a 256MB stick for a Gateway Performance 1500...and apparently it uses "System specific memory". But it has the same features and specs as a Kingston Value RAM I found. Would that work?

I'm basically just going to look at the specifications of the different components that use power. I've thought of the monitor, graphics card, cpu and then just went blank. Can anybody tell me all the important components of a computer that consume power? Any help would be appreciated.

I've been told it is the hard drive broken and you need a new one and all your stuff is gone forever, and been told it means your screen freezes so you do a restart.
