My notebook's HDD broke. It was an IDE ATA 40gb. Notebook is a Fujitsu lifebook S-4510. I would like to connect a desktop hdd to it. I guess I cannot do it through USB because the bios wouldn't see it as a main disk to boot from it. I guess I have to connect it through the internal connector for HDD but it's different from the desktop's hdd. Is there some conversor for both connectors to do this? Otherwise, how can I do it? Thanks!

Just got new internet service and tried to connect my Linksys wireless G router, but when I connect it to the modem, I get no connection to net, I also cannot connect to the 192.168.1.1 site. I checked all the cables, which are securely connected, any suggestions on how I can fix this? Right now I am connected only to the modem, no router is connected. Thanks

I recently set up DSL with 2 computers, and for security reasons, I prefer to turn off the computers at night before going to bed or on vacation. I know I could turn off the modem/router, but other computer users aren't into remembering this. Thanks.

I currently have a desktop PC running windows XP. I am going to buy a Macbook Pro in the new year when the new ones come out. I will run Bootcamp to have Vista (or XP) and Leopard on the Macbook.

If I bought the Airport Extreme Base Station would I be able to make a wired connection with my desktop and a wireless connection with my Mac so that it would have internet for the Vista and Leopard?

Also.. what is a "built in modem" that the Airport has? I have a shaw modem... would I still need that?

I am in the process of starting my own home-based "Ink-Cartridge-Refiling" business. I must start on a very small scale - to start, I will refill HP Inkjet cartridges only.

In addition to your HP Printer Model #, & what inkjet cartridges it uses, it would also be helpful to state wheather it is required to be connected to a computer, or wheather it is a "Stand-Alone".

Examples:

HP Deskjet 940c - uses #15 Black & #78 Color; computer connection required.

HP Deskjet F-340 All-In-One; uses #21 Black, #22 Tri-Color, & #58 Photo; is a Stand-Alone; no CPU required [for photocoping].

HP Photosmart C4210 All-In-One; used #74 Black & #75 Color; is a Stand-Alone.

ADDITIONAL QUESTION: I have one CPU {Computer} - it has
2 USB Ports - Is there a way, using a USB adapter {or something} to where I could have 6 USB ports, to operate 6 differect printers using this computer only?

If you have had your cartridges refilled, are you having any problems with them?

Thanks,

Ken

Yeah, i've never downloaded music/movies using p2p software/sites before, but i'm starting to consider it.
i just want to know, viruses, spyware, adware and malware aside;
how safe is it using "Bitlord" for example,
i've already got PeerGuardian 2 installed, does that really make a difference?
How legally safe is it?- if you understand me.
Is there any other software programs that could help me stay "safe" if i do decide to use p2p sites?

It pops up and downloads Files Secure. I can't get rid of it. Every scanner that says it can get rid of it says you need to buy it to remove it. Please help!
