In other words, Alot of times when somebody wants to download a video clip , they waste alot of time saving the video only after viewing it they realize they didnt really want that video or it is not the video they thought they were downloading.

I want some software that will enable me to just download like a small portion of a video clip without having to wait to download the whole clip. Right now I don't have a choice, if I want to see any portion of a video clip, I have to wait to download the whole video clip before I can even see it. I want to preview or just save the first 10 seconds (for example) of a larger video clip without having to download the whole clip?

Why do email programs like Outlook and Thunderbird store emails the way they do in unfriendly formats in strange locations on my hard drive. What I mean is, why doesn't each program act more like word processors and create a Outlook (or) Thunderbird Emails folder in My Documents, with each email an individual clickable file that opens the program, and a folder structure that mirrors the folder tree found in each program?

I have a picture in a book that I wanted to scan and put on a t-shirt. The problem is the picture is too small to fill up the front of a t-shirt. I tried blowing it up using a software program, but the pic just gets blurry. Is there a way to make a picture larger without losing the quality or it getting blurry?

Hello, I have this ATI Radeon X1300 Video Card, I like it a lot, even though it sometimes flickers the screen when I switch between resolutions, The only problem with this card is that, ITS NOISY!!! The fan is the one which is making the most noise out of this card. I removed the plug for the fan and it seems to improve the noise, but I am just scared that it will burn out my card. Is there a fan for the ATI Radeon Video Card which is EXTRA QUIET, like my Processor Fan, Case Fans, etc. ? Sorry for sounding like a pussy here lol.

I have a blog at http://mlearning.edublogs.org - where I write ideas about how to use mobile gadgets (like mobile phones, iPods, and even portable game consoles like the PSP) in educational ways (like recording videos of demonstrations, or recording lectures so you can hear them again later).

How can I improve it and get more people to visit it? I'm particularly keen to make my blog its best at the moment because I've become a finalist for an award, and I'd really like to win it!

Looking forward to your comments! If you like my blog, you can vote for 'Mobile Learning' here: http://edublogawards.com/2007/best-individual-edublog-2007/

I have 2 installed games that I am not able to remove (call of duty 1 and united offensive) I would like to reinstall them, but I can even get rid of them. Some places on my computer say the programs do not exist, but when I insert the disk, thinking I can install them, the only option available is uninstall. I go to add/remove programs, but the error message "INSTALL.log does not exist" shows up for CoD1, and UO starts to open the intall shield, but stops halfway through. I have tried deleting the programs, and even done system restores. Nothing works. I am totally lost. I just want to wipe the programs off my computer. If there is a program (hopefully free) that I can use to get rid of the programs, I would like to know. Thanks in advance!

I have had a Sony Viao RB53X for about a year and a half now. Last December for Christmas I recieved 1gig of RAM to install. When I did, my BIOs chip went bad and I had to get a secondary hard drive installed and a new BIOS chip.

Well I've had problems with the onboard video chip, (Intel Graphics Media Accelerater Driver) and got a GeForce 5400FX last February. About 5 months ago it went bad and my computer was having problems and would overheat and shut-down.

I replaced the 5400FX with an nVidia GeForce 8500GT about 4 months ago.

Today I restarted my PC and it beeped twice as usual, but the monitor gave me a "cable not connected" error. I unplugged the monitor form the video card and into the onboard Intel chip and it came on.

So now I have the same problem that I had with my bad 5400FX and it won't register the 8500GT card. I've tried installing newest drivers but it tells me it cannot locate the hardware.

Any ideas on what the problem might be, and how to fix it?
