Is there a way to add more memory to a laptop computer?
Do you buy memory sticks like a home base?

If the IE browser is shrunk to look more like the aspect ration of a normal screen, the images fall into place properly.

When it’s maximized, the images overlap.

There was a setting in the Intel graphics card that allowed me to set the aspect ratio, but that did nothing to improve it.

reason why i am asking is that I need to buy a laptop. I'm doing a digital media production course. In the course we use softwares such as, director, dreamweaver, photoshop, soundtrack and many other media softwares. At the moment I have the choice between a apple macbook pro 15" and a Fujitsu Siemens AMILO Xi 1526. I need something that will last me long and needs less maintenance, durable etc. thanks for answers

I am having problem with my PC. My PC was working fine. I recently changed my ATX casing along with its Power Supply. But when I connected my monitor to my NVIDIA Geforce 6200 (TC) PCI card, green vertical lines appeared on the screen superimposed on the picture. Windows booted normally with a prompt that new hardware found. I installed the drivers in a hope that the lines will be gone but after that the computer restarts continuously at windows XP startup. But when i plugged the same monitor to my Built-in INTEL 915 VGA the computer booted normally with no lines. Please help me. I've tried everything I could.

find out what type of sound card I have in a old Packard Bell that has Windows 3.1. The CD ROM won't work so I need to be able to load some sort of software on a floppy. I done everything to find out what it is, FCC ID, P.Bells site (worthless). I'm trying to fix it for a lady that can't afford to pay anything. I need the jumper info for the card. Thanks in advance.

I am accessing internet through GPRS and of late my system (laptop) is shutting down automatically. some one suggested i must get hard disk checked as it is making some sound while active. But this problem (shutting down) does not occur while using laptop for other work (other than internet). I also had doubts about the the antivirus as well as if it is not causing the system to shut down. Also I am not get internet faster (not more than 2-3 KBPS) though internet provider indicates speed of 115kbps. I have IE 7 on my system downloaded from the MS site. kindly help.
