I have a Dell laptop, and a Netgear router. I have unplugged my router and plugged it back in. The main computer still has internet but not the laptop. Could it be the router?

This site has a box where you put in the URL. It then takes you to that site. Although now closed down, you can still access the pages. Does anyone know the URL of this site?

I tried backing up my files, but when checked the properties on the WD syncryonizing device or passport, it only showed 665 mb used, I know that some of my games are at least 3 GBs, so, did I only get their short cuts syncryonized??

Then, how do I use this thing?

how big are office softwares?? less than 1 GB??

best answer will be awarded to the most detailed and responsive answer...

Around 2 weeks ago my computer stopped recognizing my scanner was attached to my computer. I would get an error message saying to check the cables and make sure everything is plugged in. I went to Staples and got a new USB cable to connect it and it fixed the problem....for a while. Yesterday I got the same error message, but everything is plugged in and secure, and it has a new USB cable, so I'm not sure if maybe the scanner needs to be replaced, or is it something with the USB ports? But the port itself works, I've tried plugging other things in to test and they all work just fine. Anyone know what could be happening??

I have multiple domains with one hosting site. No one at Go Daddy knows how I should upload to ftp.
The ftp box on my personal sitebuilder (art explosion) just offers 2 options ftp account and ftp address. If I upload one domain, then it over writes the next domain, etc. . Can't figure out what language to use. Thanks for your help. I cant figure out how to use filezilla and I know that my art explosion works on just 1 domain, so am sure it could be utilized for a subdirectory, any ideas? On the Go Daddy website domain management. they claim everything is set up just right, that it is how i upload from my "art explosion" . I think they should know the technical way to write the ftp account and ftp address so that it uploads o.k.

I asked this a little while ago
But ive been told ive been far to vague

OK.
Well i just have that instinct that my pc isnt running at full potential, thats all... and its ocassionally being slow.. sometimes im named lagger in multiplayer games that arent the most graphics powering.


This is my spec:
AMD athlon 62 x2 4400+ (2.3ghz) AM2
2gb ram - twinx (dual channel) 800mhz corsair
500w coolermaster psu
160gb hard drive etc...
7800gt XFX graphics

My hard drive is a standart sata 7200rpm. Its not full, ive only just reinstalled my OS (win xp pro) because of slowness to my system. So its very free of space.

It should have adequate cooling. 1 120mm fan at the front, 2 80mm fans at the rear and an 80mm fan at the side, also a big fan on my psu and a new arctic cooling cpu cooler.

I havent overclocked at all.
All my components are getting seen by programs such as cpu-z, everest etc.. so my 2gb ram, graphics etc are all getting seen.

I fink its a BIOS/drivers problem

I downloaded avg spyware protection and scanned my system in safe mode. I quarantined "purity scan" ( a high risk spyware) and all the other spyware threats found in my system, but it just comes back. please help!

The nVidia's GeForce series used to identify video card and chipset.
I am confused about that.

Are they the same compared between video card and motherboard chipset?

For example, GeForce 6200 of video card and motherboard chipset Geforce 6200, does this case exist?
If so, are they the same GPU or the same brabra...?

BTW, GeForce Go series, what's the meaning of go?

There are 7 monitors in the roomHP 1502 LCD, They keep restarting. I can see a login screen for less then a secong before it restarts again. When I have VGA unpluged it also restarts. I have tried unpluging them for few minutes, but still no change. So I know it is not computers or power cord failing. I have tried other monitors and they work fine. Also 2 of the monitors were doing the same blink and flash, when I was out of the room and came back 2 hours later they were working fine. I need to know if there is any reset I can do because I need these monitors reliable and to work.
If there is anythgin to cause these problems please let me know.
Thanks

I have a fairly new pc, that i built myself.
And am concerned its not running at its potential performance for some reason. Its not being seriously slow like wat you'd expect from an old computer with very crap spec, but for wat the pc is im just not cetrtain its running quite right.

Is there any software that can help this run faster, as i have downloaded some software like ccleaner which was helpful, and also everest and cpu-z but they dont seem to do anything exept tell me wat components i hav which i already know.

My pc is:
AMD dual core X2 athlon
2gb ram - dual channel corsair 800mhz 2x1gb
7800gt graphics
xp pro
500w coolermaster psu
abit mobo
cheap asus case.
160gb wd

Which for xp i think should b pretty dam quick

Any scans i can do to hunt a problem i may have?

Or any idea's wat could be wrong.

I am setting up a small internet business, and after doing some research i have found that using a "web design" program isn't going to give me a quality product. Which upsets me a bit because that is the cheapest rout and I am quite creative.

However I was told that i can get a web page designed for fairly cheap but i was never told where to go to find this cheap web design and was hoping that someone had some ideas on how to help.
