Computers & Internet - 8 October 2007

recently my USB was infected by worm of I don't know the name specifically, and it continuously creates a "new folder" in each and every folder that I have stored in there including the drive itself in which inside the drive also has a "new folder" in it.

e.g: G:/New Folder

and each time I access that empty new folder my pc slows down and the YIM sends messages to all my contacts of an unknown language. I have deep freeze so it cannot harm my system. only my USB, even though I format it several times the "new folder" kept on creating itself.

With Leopard quickly approaching, is there any chance that the macbook may see another revision? I think there is less than 20 days until Leopard is released.

my computer freezes alot, i dunno why and everytime it does i have to unsafely reset my pc

i got lucky recently ... it said something about a boot disk and wouldnt start up ... but it did just now (after a few days) i feel like im slowly messing up my pc

i believe that prevention is better than cure so can someone please tell me ways to prevent a crash/freeze for free ... rather than me having to buy a vista boot disk?

I just bought a new dell desktop tower. It did not come with a monitor and I was wondering if I can use my tv (HDTV 720i, it has VGA, HDMI, and S video connections) ? Is there any difference in the quality if I were to use the VGA instead of HDMI or S video since they are already being used?

I have a sony vaio model PCG-V505BX laptop.
I tried to use a dell computer CD on it.
yea it doesn't work.
haha but now when i turn on the laptop it says ... Operating System not found.

But i can't find any CDs for the PCG-V505BX model but i can for other sony vaio laptops at restoredisks.com

so.. if i would buy a cd for a sony vaio pcg-v505gx... what would happen?

would it fix the operating system not found?

I am not worried about getting the right drivers for the computer yet. like for the touchpad and all that. I just want the computer to work :P

My company currently has cameras in our show room, just for security purposes. After much consideration, we have decided we would like to set them up to give us a live feed on our website, so a customer could view the showroom and whatever rug (s) we put in view of the camera. My problem is .. i have no idea where to even begin. I am a graphic designer and i can do the html of the page and all that .. But in terms of software we'd need, hardware we'd need, other coding ... etc... any suggestions?

When I go into the above,click on start up, the only progs I recognise are my security progs. Can I delete the rest or seeing as I dont really know whats going on should I leave well alone. The reason I was contemplating this is because my Comp. is a little slow on start up. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks

This was actually a replacement video card from a supposed faulty NVIDIA card. The original motherboard was also replaced prior to the graphics card replacement.

Everytime i try to play an installed game with 3D graphics, it freezes and I have to restart.
2D games play fine and no problems with video playback.

I sense theres a problem with the video card processing or the processor itself. The fan is running fine on the card and so is the CPU fan.

Do you think it could be a problem with the CPU? motherboard? graphics card?
