I am looking at buying a laptop, that will also function as a video editor. I have noticed that almost all the laptops have only 5400 rpm. The specs required to run my Adobe Premiere Elements call for 7200 rpm on my hard drive. If I connect an external hard drive to the laptop, that runs at 7200 rpm will this be sufficient, will the software work? Also the above laptop I am looking at has a CPU speed of 1.6 ghz but is a dual processor. Again, is the system adequate to run a video editor like Adobe Premiere Element?

Thank You for your knowledge and experience

When entering a new password, I made a mistake and now I can't access the master account on my computer. Is there any way I can get in? It's the administrator's account that's made not to show up unless you press ctrl-alt-delete before you log in that can monitor all of the other accounts on the computer.

Ok, my microphone used to work and be recognized and everything, but one day, I can't remember anything that caused it to stop working, but it did. I've been through so much to fix this damn thing, and I still haven't, so I'll try here.
It's a simple stand up plantronics microphone, and there doesn't seem to be any drivers for it online, Plantronics only has like 5 drivers for headsets. See, the problem is when I plug it in my sound manager will show I have a microphone plugged in and everything, but when I go to Sounds and Audio Devices ---> Voice and select my sound card, which is the only option. Now, under voice recording I press volume, and the box labeled select is unchcecked. I can't check it. Also, when I press test hardware, no sound gets through to my computer.
Please help me!! I would appreciate it so much!
