This is annoying! I can't find any tool that allows me to draw a circle. All I can find are tools that let me cut a circle, or draw a *filled* circle (using the vector tool). I would just like to draw a nice empty circle, how can I do this?

I have found a couple of x1650 cards but I want to know which is the best that will not give me hassle(drivers). And I think the most common problem in Radeon I see is they have HOT cards, bad drivers(picky), pretty much I'm concerned of the heat. So I want to ask which card is the BEST in terms of Heat, Drivers, ect.? Remember under $100!!!

I bought a dell 700m in Dec 2005.

My hard drive recently failed and my boyfriend took it to fix it but he lost it.

Now I don't know what kind of hard drive to buy and replace!! I tried a ATA-6 but that didn't work. I tried an Ultra ATA100 but that didn't work either.

Do I have to buy it from Dell? They don't have any on their website.

Please help i really need my laptop to work!!!

What is a good med cost card for doing 3D modeling? The Quadros and FireGLs and 3DLabs cards are too expensive, and the GeForce and Raedon cards are for gaming and such. I'm thinking $150-$200 for the card, what should I be getting? I know a few things about computers, so don't act like I'm an idiot. Thanks.

There are FireGLs and Quadros in that price range, but are those the way to go? They are very low-end FireGLs and Quadros.

Infact, I can get used 3D Labs cards from ebay in my price range, still though, is that the way to go with this?

I need some help -- the cup holder on my computer is broken -- it was so handy having it there -- kept me from accidently spilling on my desk and everything. It's below the place where I put in my disc for the computer to read - in fact, it looks almost the same.

I asked how to correct this. I took my computer to Best Buy and they checked it for free. Then they informed me my computer had a virus, in fact two. They removed them and now my computer works fine. I had to leave it there for about a week and it cost me about $200 bucks. So this particular Geek squad did help. Thanks all of you guys for your advise.

My computer came with MS Word and one day it just disappeared off of my computer. I am a college student and absolutely need MS Word for my English Comp class. I can't go to the store to buy the cd's to download it because my cd drive broke and I'm almost at the end of my 60 day trial. Any suggestions as to how to get MS word back on my comp without having to spend a fortune?
