how does a site know whether or not my computer is unique, from ip address? can they know what my internal ip address is, or is it only dependent on external ip address, ie. changing my external ip address they think im unique? are there other ways they can know whether im uniq or not

If I had a motherboard that supports ddr2 and ddr3, can I have both at the same time? Like if the mainboard supports 4GB, can I have 2GB ddr2(at present) and another 2GB ddr3(in the future if i upgrade) on the same mainboard such that my computer runs fine?

When I boot my computer, I get a repeating POST beep. It's just one beep over and over again. If I remove my videocard there will be no beeping, but I can't get video with the onboard video card.

What the heck is that?

I'm constantly getting annoying pop-ups that say Internet Speed Monitor on the top (if you can't tell, I have no idea what's going on). Sometimes they even pop up when I'm not even ON the Internet. How do I get rid of this?

I live in an apartment complex, and my Internet is through a cable modem (don't know if this matters). Anyone know what's going on?

I installed the memory correctly I think, When I tired to boot the computer , I got only a black screen. I do not know what I did wrong. I could not even turn it off unless I unplugged the unit. What is wrong with the computer. The book said it had the capacity of 4 GB in this computer, an I attempted to take this computer to its maximum ram memory. What could have happened to my computer at least this computer is still under warranty, should I send it bac to Toshiba to further help me out with the problem with my computer.

Here's my predicament:

I have a Linksys wireless router model WRT54G.

My laptop will connect wirelessly to the router and I can use the internet. However, when I try to connect with another computer at the same time, the new computer will disconnect the laptop from the internet, and I can use the internet with the new computer.

So, comp A connects. Then B connects and disconnects A. When I try to connect A again, B will disconnect.

This is a problem if my wife wants to use the laptop while I'm playing an online game with my PS3 wirelessly.

I would like to be able to connect wirelessly with two or more computers to the router.

I know it's possible. Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance.

Is it normal for my iMac G5 to constantly have the fan blowing loudly? It's one-and-a-half years old and I'm not sure if this loud fan blowing is something new or if I just never really noticed it before.

Al Gore invented Internet. so he says... so that would mean its his fault we got all the hacker, viruses spam and porn on the web right?

Okay so he didn't really invent the Internet...how about a real fact....did you know he was born nine months after the UFO 'Roswell incident' in 1947...that sure would explain a lot!

When i right click on my computer, it says the system:
Registered to: & Computer:

all i wanna know is that, i know that i am using windows Xp Pro
in this case, service pack 2! above that, it says Version 2002!
what does that mean? for example, this is what it says:



System:
Microsoft Windows XP
Version 2002
Service Pack 2

Thats what it says! i know that the OS i am using is windows xp service pack 2, but it also says "Version 2002" what does Microsoft mean by that? do they mean that from the year 2002 and beyond, xp is still around? it should say version 2001!
because windows Xp launched in 2001!!!
so i need your input guys!
