As well it says that I am connect as peer to peer, what does this mean. I am just wondering what I need to do to completly connect to the internet. Thanks

I just purchased a d-link wbr 2310 router to share the internet connection on my desktop to my laptop. both computers can now connect to the internet no problem. however, i noticed that when i try downloading big files (50 MB up) the download never finishes and stays at around 50%. One time it only downloaded 4%. I was able to finish downloading a 20 MB file but that was the biggest file i could download. I thought this was only on the laptop but the same thing also happened to my desktop. This has never happened before i installed the router so something must be wrong with my setting or setup. router firmware is updated but it didn't help. Any ideas on this?. Thank you.

It's a ViewSonic VX2235wm 22-inch. The line appeared at random, then vanished at random. Did this thrice. Then it was there to stay. Then, I read somewhere about "tapping the bezel"; I did that near where the blue line is, and it vanished. Now:

1. Is it an LCD, graphics card (GeForce4 MX 440), or connector (VGA) problem?
2. Will service repair it - because it goes on and off? Suppose it's off when they inspect it?
3. Why did tapping on the bezel work?
4. I ran those screen generators (you probably know about these if you've read thus far). Then,
4.a I tapped the bezel *after* I'd run the screen generators. Did the screen generators make a difference?
4.b The software helped tremendously in improving the picture, though the monitor is only 2 weeks old. So what's up? Is my monitor bad? Do people run these videos often to keep their LCDs in good shape?

Please answer as many of the above as you can - I'll offer you a pizza with all the toppings *if* you can come over to my place!

Are library has everything from cds to movies and books because we can order them from different librarys. They said every library can do that, so why don't people use it instead of using illegal things that gets them in trouble? I'd rather do things legal so my record is clean, but why would people rather do illegal things?

I have an old computer which I don't really use anymore, it has 2 harddrives; one with all the main windows information on it (A) and one with a bunch of documents and a few games installed on it (B).

What I would like to do is format harddrive B while keeping all the data on A intact. I want to unplug A and leave it so I can go back to windows later if I want. I would like to format B and then use that as my main harddrive so that I could then install Ubuntu Linux on that and then use Ubuntu as my main OS.

The computer is currently running windows xp professional but I do not have any install disks because the computer used to be someone elses and they gave it to me. so I don't have the right CD's for it.

I hope I have explained what I wish to do clearly enough; if you need me to clarify then feel free to ask, I shall provide information the best I can.

Thank you

connect our camera and download pictures. This last Christmas, I also started using it to upload songs onto my IPOD, and my kids have been using it since then for their MP3 players as well. 5 months ago, I was given a new Kodak digital, and started downloading those pics also. Last month, I brought home 2 memory sticks from work- one is a Memorex Traveldrive, and the other is a Staples Relay drive. At first, the Relay drive worked, but now when I try to use either of those in the ports, it shuts the computer down with no error message. Can someone please tell me why this is happening? Our computer is about 3 years old.

I just put in BF2 so I can re-install it.

I un-installed it a month ago.

Anyways, I put the CD in and my computer just simply isn't reading the CD.

Its acting as if nothing is in the drive.

Is it fried or something?

Can anyone help?

I just ran the CPUID program to find out that my RAM is running at 166 MHz. Isn't this a little slow? I thought they ran at 400- 533 MHz. I was looking for the speed so I know what new RAM to buy. I think I should get PC 2700 according to what my computer can take. Can anyone enlighten me as to why it is running so slow or what it means?
