Computers & Internet - 17 December 2007

I bought a domain (WHICH I CANNOT CHANGE) on bravehost.net for a year. I'm currently pissed at how bravehost places ads on the site so the layout looks crappy.

I want to use GoDaddy- does it place ads on the sites? Anyways, after the domain expires, I want to buy the domain off of GoDaddy. Would this be possible? And does GoDaddy let me upload pages via FTP?

Please help me!

Ever since I installed the latest version of Windows Media Player (version 11) on my laptop, its been unable to play any sounds at all. Whenever I try to play any music it says:
"Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it might be in use by another program, or it might not be functioning properly"
I can't think of anything I can do to fix it, and I really don;t know what I'm doing with computers most of the time.
Can anyone please help in nice simple words I can understand?

This year I've decided to take an HTML class, but I'm having trouble with one of the assignments... I need to make a linked style sheet, but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm using TextWrangler and I set up the CSS sheet using the format ".CSS"... So that isn't the problem. Any advice? Thanks!!

I have an old Epson 610 scanner that I'd like to use to scan documents into PDF format. I know newer scanners have that ability with the software that comes with them.

Is there something I can use to create them with this old scanner?

Does anyone know a website where you can get the IP address of another internet site. Like the IP to myspace or slacker. Or if you know what they are that would be nice. Thanks.

When I built this computer, it all worked fine. Windows installed perfectly and all is well.

But now when I put the recovery disk in, to try and reformat, the installation says it cannot find my hard-drive...? And it cannot proceed.

It is a SATA hard-drive. I take out the disk and start windows normally and it all works fine, so what is wrong?

Windows XP btw.

After trying Vista and experiencing it's problems I've decided to "downgrade" back to Windows XP which suits me fine. Unfortunately I can't dump Windows entirely as I need to be able to access and login to a Windows Domain and use ActiveSync/Bluetooth PAN.

I want to learn more about Unix and someday soon ditch Windows. Is it possible to boot a flavor of (Fedora, Ubuntu, etc) within Windows XP? I don't want to perform a dual boot as I need to be able to access the Windows Domain at all times. Thanks!
