I have a PC with 256mb RAM which I am pulling out and replacing with 1gB (2 x 512 cards). The machine has 4 slots ie 2 pairs of 2 slots. Does it matter which slots the new RAM goes in?

I currently am having a problem regarding strings and character arrays. What I want to do is have a user type a string like "Johnson 5000" (using cin, not from an input file or preset string), and I want to store this input into two parallel arrays. One for characters while the other is for values. Assume that all variables are properly declared.

for (int canidateNum = 0; canidateNum < ROWS; canidateNum++)
{
cout << "Canidate #" << canidateNum + 1 << ": ";
cin >> name[canidateNum] >> voteNum[canidateNum];
}
cout << name[0] << " " << voteNum[0] << endl;
...

However, upon entering something like "Johnson 5000" in the program, it will output the wrong result, displaying J and not 5000. I tried using various methods of inputing a string into a character array, but to no avail. I tried multi-dimensional arrays, but that didn't work for me either (probably did it wrong).

Can anyone assist me in this?

I know you should delete temporary internet files, defrag and run a scan disc every now and then but im not sure how often and if there is anything else i should be doing. I run XP and have probably 4 or 5 hours a day of internet use.

Well when ever i am running a large program or it is very hot whether my computer just turns itself off. Me and my friend think my fan just needs to be replaced because we think it isn't cooling down my computer but i checked the back of it and my fan is spinning. I don't really want a computer technician to check it out because they are way too expensive.. so if anyone can help me that would be great.

Right now the only ones I can name are:
-Ghana/Nigerian dating scams (you end up sending money)
-Craigslist IP-Relay scams ("Hello this is ___ do you have __ for sale? ...ok email me") ...also Nigerian
-Email scams (Congratulations you won some foreign lottery/inheritance/stored money)

Can anyone name any others? About 90% of these scams involve Yahoo accounts so I figured here is a good place to ask!

Some people don't show up on the list and it keeps saying I have pending invites for people who I don't and it's terribly confusing.

I noticed my folks computer was kinda slow today, I put 2g of ram into it (2.5 total now), and fixed a speaker problem. I built the computer myself in high school and it's a real good one. The graphix card has been acting up all day, even after I reinstalled the driver it has glitches and is very slow and kicks me out of programs with the following message:

VPU Recover has reset you graphics accelerator as it was no longer responding to graphics driver commands.

The card is a 9800 pro.

Is there anything else I can do to fix this?
If not what card should I buy? (I play games every now and then but would probably play more if they ran smothe and looked amazing)

I have never known my father since my mom left him before I had any memory of him and I never had the opportunity to meet him since. I've always known that someday I would like to meet or at least contact him. Well, today my mom found him on a social networking site. She called me to give me the link. I am grown and out of her house but she let me know that she wants me to proceed very cautiously and anonomously in contacting him. I agreed to this, especially since he admits to being bi polar in his biography. In his online posts he seems like a very decent person but one can never tell. So, first of all, what is the best way to begin contact with him? On the site he's a member of it looks like I could email him if I register. I also found a page with his actual email address posted. So I don't know if I should email him through the site or on my own. Also, whichever way I contact him, what are some tips to keep myself anonomous and safe? This type of thing is a complete first for me.

I'm not just referring to emails from bots. Sometimes I get a little nervous when I get an email from a contact with "no subject" in the subject line.

I am to buy a laptop this coming week, and I want to be able to access the internet wherever I go. What companies provide this, how much does it cost, can you purchase it outright without any credit checks ( I am fine with a contract), etc.
Please help me with this decision and thank you ahead of time.
