Hey, I wanted a lot of shortcuts on my desktop, so I directly opened the start menu and dragged them onto the desktop. Now I want all of the shortcuts on my desktop gone, but put back into the start menu. However, I don't know how to get all of the icons back onto the start menu, under the All Programs list with the folders. (I run Windows Vista, by the way, so I can't use the method for this on Windows XP.)

Ok, so heres the deal. I'm pretty sure I was one of many who bought a Dell 3100 with intergrated Sound and Graphics cards. To put it simply they suck, and there alleged good intergrated graphics are a joke. I would like somebody to please answer me if it is possible to get a new mobo that will fit my current case that has slots for a graphics card, pci express x16 slot, and will work with ddr2 ram, sata 2 hd, and my cd and dvd roms. It would be greatly appreciated if anyone knew a specific board actually, lol Save me alot of looking around for one that will work.

Thanks alot!

All right I've been trying to set up a home server today so I can get my music wherever I go, and it works when i go to http://localhost/
and it asks for a password (which I set up) and it all works. Problem is when I try to Port Forward Port 80, no one can type in my IP address (with ":80" at the end of it, which really isnt necessary) and come to the server.
I have a Netgear WGR614v6 Wireless Router
Hardware Version: V8
Firmware Version: V1.0.17_1.0.17NA

In command prompt, it showed my IP address as 10.0.0.2 (I know what my Internet Ports IP address is.

So Port Forwarding/Port Triggering, I added a new address with
Service Type: Port Forwarding
Service: HTTP
Port Begin: 80
Port End: 80
IP: 10.0.0.2

It wont work after entering that, what must I do?

I am trying to manually recalculate an excel spreadsheet which would normally work with F9 on a PC - how can I do this on mac using excel?

Excel on mac doesn't have options under tools which would be the place where that calculation tab is on PC excel.

Looking for a printer that has individual colour ink cartridges (i.e. one blue, one red, etc.) Where can I get this kind of printer? (If you know a website, that'd be very helpful)

I am looking for an interface that will allow me to take FOUR SIMULTANEOUS INPUTS (working all at the same time!) capable of up to 192 KHz sampling rate on ALL inputs that also has 4 outputs that will also work SIMULTANEOUSLY. I see ads for interfaces that say "4 in, 10 out" but they do NOT have inputs that work SIMULTANEOUSLY. The device I need can exceed these qualifications, but it is necessary that it works at 192 KHz and has 4 inputs and outputs that work simultaneously. It would also help if it had a good reputation for reliability and excellent sound quality. I am currently using a Tascam US-122 adapter, but I want to record up to 4 simultaneous tracks, and it has only 2. Also, it MUST work with Mac OS 10.4 or later. Thanks!!!

my students and i were working on the computer room of our school. suddenly a student called my attention because they found pornographic pictures (naked wowen exposing you know what) in a folder on the desktop of his PC. Later, we found out that it was copied by a student from a shared folder on a computer that is a member of the network domain. When we confronted the person, he denied it. I already cut the pictures to prevent other students from seeing it. (since it was a school computer laboratory) I saved a copy for evidence.

Now, the accused person is saying that it is planted. We want to persecute him for his sin. He had placed us (teachers) in a sensitive and dangerous situation, as well as our school.



Since he is denying he downloaded the file, im asking if there is a way to trace and know the computer that downloaded a file based from the downloaded file.? please help us....we need your help....
