Uggh, I just got picture paper for my pics so I can print them out at home buuut..! Everytime I print them out, there are these white lines on it. The instructions says that I have to clean the printer head but when I try to search on the net on how to do so, it usually talks about a DIFFERENT printer than mines.


Can anyone tell me how to clean the printer head?
By the way, I have an HP OfficeJet 6210 printer.

I'm replacing a ATI Radeon X600 Graphics Card and don't want (read can't afford) to go top of the line X1900/FX7800 cards. I mostly play FPS (Half Life 2 & EP1, Doom 3, Quake 4, Far Cry Prey and when they’re available Stalker, Crysis & UT2007) but also render video from my DV camcorder. I'm thinking along the lines of a X1600 or FX7300/FX7600 preferably with 512Mb Ram. Certain benchmarks and reviews suggest that the X1600 sucks and doesn't run any better than the X800/X850 (which is another possible choice).One more thing - what’s with all this GT & PRO crap that they add after the card's description. Is it just there to confuse or does it mean one is better than the other (well like, duh!) but how and by how much?

Hey guys, I have a Dell B130 laptop that as a Pentium M processor. Most newer PC games require a Pentium 4 processor...does this mean I can't play PC games on my laptop? Or are the Pentium M and Pentium 4 chips compatible for gaming and, thus, it doesn't matter? Help?!
