Hardware - October 2006

Hi all,

I need to format my harddrive (sigh) and I was thinking the best way to save my music would be to put it all onto my ipod and then transfer them back. Is that possible?

Also...can't I also save files on my iPod?

Thanks for the help!!!

There are times when my Emachines monitor wont come on, or if it does It will fade to black. The only way that I can get it back on is to hit the monitor hard, somtimes a couple of times. Do you know why it does this or how I can fix it?

The only thing i can think of is I cleaned the room yesterday and the laptop may have been exposed to some dust?

The computer still seems to function but the pink screen color is certainly difficult to work with.

I tried shutting off rebooting without success.

Any direction would be greatly appreciated.

thanks, JL

Could I install a second hard drive as a slave, copy all of my "C" drive to it, then reconfigure it as master and remove my original hard drive? Will it boot?

Do you determine a processor's performance by looking how high it's GHz is? Or do you need to test and compare it yourself? Please help me...Thanks!

Okay I have a Hp desktop computer about three years old and it is truly possessed. It stared a couple months ago I would turn the power strip off at night and in the morning when I wanted to go on the computer I would click the power strip back on but the led button on the tower was blinking on and on and I could not turn the computer on until it stopped blinking, but now it just keeps blinking i mean it was blinking throughout the whole night and even when I woke up this morning it was still blinking so I don't even have a chance to turn it on. If anyone has any info for me it would be great. I am not that computer literate so maybe I am doing something wrong or maybe I should call a priest so they can get the demon out of my tower.
