I have a USB plug that I have been using for 2 different brand printers in the past and it worked and fitted well. I just bought a new printer over the weekend and for some reason the USB plug fits kind of loose. Just one light effortless pull and it is out of the socket, however it fits firmly into the computer but loosely into this new printer. What should I do? I thought a USB plug suppose to fit ALL printers.

Looking at purchasing a lower end laptop for just some basic use. I don't expect for the machine to run any really graphics hogging or newer games, but the specs for it list a ATI Radeon® Xpress 1150 256MB HyperMemory card. I just wanted to know baisically what I can expect from it. I'm not that up to speed on mobile graphics cards, only the desktop versions. Thanks,

My new partner's ex is a police man who works in survailence with access to IT equipment etc. I opened her a sub account attached to my bt account. she gave him the address over the phone and he sent her one e-mail. then phoned to say that he would not send any more info over that address because i am the account administrator and will have access. Has he acted illegally in tracing the e-mail address back to my account? I thought this was not possible? We think he has acted in appropriately by using police facilities to trace this back!

If not, here is your chance to speak out.

Suppose I am a local public school administrator in charge of its computer network, firewall, and security.

Please provide your most persuasive argument to convince me to leave MySpace UNBLOCKED for use on school computers. I will choose the most well-thought response.

I bought a flash drive but I am having trouble getting it to work. When I plug it into my USB port it comes up on screen giving the following three options: 1- "There is no default application specified to open the document Autorun.inf". 2- "Unable to unarchive lauchpad.zip into /volumes/U3systems temporary directory could not be created". 3- "Open dictionary unable to read the dictionary of the application or extension because it is not scriptable".
The packaging says it is compatable with the Mac that I own, the only thing I can think of is apparently the USB port on my computer is 1.1 and not 2.0. Could this be the problem? If so, how do I solve this?
I also notice a note on the package that says U3 functionality is not supported under Mac OS (any version)
What exactly does that mean?
If anyone has a moment to give me some advice on this I would sure appreciate it. I'm not exactly a computer wizard.

I recently read that the computer gaming industry is running at 30 or 40% of what they could really be. What would change this? What needs to be done to increase this percentage?

Hi I've just got a new computer, I've connected the monitor and it doesn't work. The monitor is a month old and works on my other computer.

There are two plug sockets at the back of the new comp, one for the lead and another with holes for what looks like a means to connect a monitor.

However, my monitor does not connect this way and instead connects via that blue monitor hole.

Will it work on my new comp? Is there a way to get it to work? What should I do?

Advice needed, thanks.

All ya gotta do is use another computer or have your ISP change it. Seems so simple (to me) to get around and I thought of it immediately.

My computer keeps telling me that I'm running low on virtual memory - I think that running lots of programs at the same time reduces it and so I'm trying not to use too much at once but is there anything else I can do to help my computer?

I have a Dell Inspiron E1505, & I'm not sure what happened, but somehow the screen came on this morning with a huge smash in the glass under the screen's "skin".

I'm not sure what you can do when this happens to a laptop .. is there a place I can go to repair this, or should I contact the manufacturer? If you can tell me about how much this will cost to repair, that'd be great too. Thanks for the input.
