Right out of college I bought a brand new car. I had my thrill but I'll never do it again because cars depreciate so much in the first few years. Last year I bought a 3-year old Land Cruiser for about $35K (which sold for $60K new). I love it. Anyway, is it a smart idea to buy a used laptop? I have a desktop computer (HP Pentium 4, 2.53 GHz, 512 RAM) that works fine and I actually like the speed better than an HP Compaq NC6000 laptop which I sometimes use (and all I know about that baby is it has an M processor). Anyway, I want to add a used laptop to help me do business when I travel and mostly for surfing. I've got a budget of about $300 but I figure I'll probably have to bump that up to $400 or $500 to get something that's okay. Don't need a whole lot of storage for files. Do want built-in wifi capability. I'm a big ebay shopper too. What can I buy? Is my budget too low? What minimum specs should I look for considering my needs? What's your favorite beer?

I lost my manual, and I can't find a way to turn of my mouse. The only way to turn it off is to take out the batteries. Is there a way to turn it off without having to deal with the hassle of removing the batteries? Just so we're clear, the mouse looks like this:

I recently purchased a dvd burner model hp 840e and everytime I try to install it as directed by the information provided windows will not let me! I keep getting this error message: Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)! This is my first time installing the device so I don't see how the registry file could be damaged! Help me please!

On my laptop I have no sound what-so-ever, I've tried playing with all the sound options in my control panel and everything is as high as possible and nothing is muted, I've tried using external speakers ( logitech USB Headset ) and I still have no sound at all so i don't think that it's my laptops speakers. I'm pretty good with computer so i thought i could get my sound working but no luck. I'm wondering if this is maybe a problem with my sound card or something else, open to any and all suggestions, thank you =)

I want to get a new top of the line computer. What should I do, should I buy one from the store, customize one online, or buy the parts and build it myself? Which one would be cheaper? Would the risk of messing up the components worth the money I save.

factor.

The first time it broke I was in the process of doing a ad-adware and it was showing spyware (43) but before it was done with the scan and I could take these off, the screen went blank.

The computer would not turn on (the light stayed off). (moniter was working but not computer)

Son replaced the motherboard and another part and said he thought it was fixed.

Turned on; it worked three minutes and then a screen came on saying file # such and such was corrupted or missing and to put in initial rebooting cd-rom and go to screen so and so to try to fix.

Computor will not shut off unless I unplug it. Son said it may need this part he has (but has not looked at it yet --one month ago it broke) and now talking of having to buy me a new one. Everyone's (both sons) mad at me and don't know how long it will take for them to afford one (I am disabled and on a small fixed income).

They said they thought the heat might have blown the motherboard, I was wondering if is so
