Hi,

My IBM Lenovo system was too slow, I just formated my LAptop and installed new version of OS on it, I was wondering does it violate the warranty of LAptop ? My laptop is still under warranty.

Hiya.

I had my computer completely restored to factory settings. Well on the screen absolutly everything is much larger than it used to be, icons on the wallpaper and all webpages. I think its very simple to make it smaller but i cant find how. I have a Packard Bell and use Windows XP if that helps.

Also for people who have Windows Live Messenger its really wierd. I had an add-on you know the ones where your display name can be changed colour by entering codes like [C=6] i dont know where to download one. Can anyone reccomend me where to download it and what one to download.

Help Appreciated, thank you! x :D

Me and my sister have just been bought a OS X Mac 10.4.10 each and we want to be able to play The Sims 2. So far we have installed it and when you try and build it floods the screen with blue and flashes blue. Also it has a few errors such as doors not being placed even though they are where they're meant to be.

I have downloaded about 3 patches which havent worked. Although I did just download one from macgamefiles I think it was, installed it and now it says theres not enough room to run the sims 2.

Has anyone else had these problems? Did you manage to sort them? Will we be able to play it??

Please answer if you know, thanx in advance :)

I use blogger. I already tried deleting the HTML part that had the blogger template info, and replacing it with the HTML code for my new template. Is it even possible to have a template besides one from Blogger? I really really really want a different template...is there any way I can do this?

This is for an online club to have meetings once a month. It would be great to have audio with possible video. Chat forums are good, but do not offer audio/video. I looked into skype, but at most, 9 people can talk. What do you think?

I have a 1 gig flash which has been troubling me everyday. When I copy files to the flash, the files are seen. But when I disconnect the flash and reconnect it, no information is seen in the flash. When I look at the capacity, I realise that some of the space is occupied by the files I copied to it.
I have formatted the flash many times, but the problem continues. Also, the writing speed is too slow. What should I do to fix the problem.

Do you know about Wikipedia, the always-expanding (free) internet encyclopedia, written collaboratively by volunteers from all around the world, that ANYone can edit or correct.

I think that's awesome!!! Please stay away if you are a prankster.

The name Wikipedia is a portmanteau of the words wiki (a type of collaborative website) and encyclopedia.

There are more than 75,000 active contributors working on some 8,700,000 articles in more than 250 languages. As of today, there are 2,058,778 articles in English.

Every day hundreds of thousands of visitors from around the world make tens of thousands of edits and create thousands of new articles to enhance the knowledge held by the Wikipedia encyclopedia.

I think this Wikipedia Internet Encyclopedia is one of the great things about the world wide web.

People always say, "Why don't you Google it?"!

People should perhaps say, "Why don't you Wikipedia it?"!

Don't you agree with me?

Do you use it much?

I have a windows vista home edition in my PC. one day i partitioned my 160GB hard disk and did some disk formatting (The problem is that i don't remember which partition was it that i formatted). Then i installed windows XP in the newly created partition. when i navigate to the "documents and settings" folder of my vista OS from the XP OS I can see that all my documents i saved when using vista are still present.

But actually the problem itself is that when I turn on my PC I am no more given to choose which of my 2 OS i want to load and the PC directly loads the windows XP.

Please tell me how to solve that problem.
How do I acces the Windows Vista.
