Hardware - July 2006

When I switch it on it goes off straight away. The battery is fully charged, I've swapped the battery from a similar laptop in work but it still won't switch on. Works OK off the mains.

My Win98 failed to bootup. The bootlog file indicated the system was unsuccessful in loading windows/fonts/
marlett... and also unsuccessful with all other fonts.
I checked for hardware problem, and everything was fine.
I checked the harddisk, and all sectors are fine.
I can boot up using safemode

If scan disk finds entries that are not valid and are truncated, does that mean my hard disk is buggered?

Particularly the internet. I am running DSL on my pc, yet it is still slower to load pages, etc...than my other computers. The computer is fairly old but still works great so I don't want to just get rid of it. I would prefer to upgrade instead. Thanks!

I've tried it in Firefox and Word and it doesn't stop me from scrolling. 10 points to the first person to tell me what it does.

I have the CD, I have also downloaded the driver from the Bushnell web site. I have Windows XP. This is really frustrating - I have set up these binoculars to link to my PC but all it allows me to do is do streaming video. Fun, but I have taken photos that for the life of me I can't download. Bushnell was no help (they don't answer). Anybody else here have these binoculars and have figured it out?

The other day for fun I was looking under the microscope at a page of black text printed out by my major name printer. To my surprise, each black letter was surrounded by very small dots of a wide variety of colors. These small color dots aren't visible to the naked eye. Is this some kind of secret way the printer company is getting us to use up our color ink (so that we buy more) without our knowledge? (or am I just being paranoid?)

ANd what point is that? I am guessing new high memory cards are only beneficial for 3D games past 16mb maybe but would it help Photoshop or any other applications excluding 3D ones at all? I'm ust trying to understand what is useful to upgrade to.Thanks.

My parents just got me a new dell inspiron e1505 duel core with one gigi mem for college. FOr some reason it takes more time to boot up than the family desktop computer which is running off the same amount of mem and has a Pentium four. I have already checked all my settings to see why it would be taking so long and have minimized the amount of programs that start when windows starts. what i have begun to do is put it in hibernation mode. I know what it does and everything but i still do not know whether or not it is a good idea to do this alll the time. how much memory does it take to do this? Is old data erased after each hibernation and the new one saved over it? Does my battery have to run in order to keep it going in this mode at all? Is it safe to carry around my computer in this mode, ie does it produce any heat?
