I recently moved into my girlfriends and to save transporting my entire PC i took the hard drive out of my tower and bought a USB caddy to connect it to my girlfriends PC. Now I cant get access to my documents folder and whenever I try to open it or anything it always pops up a box saying 'unable to access f:/ My documents access is denied'
My mate told me to try and disable the simple file sharing but we dont have the option to do this and he thinks it because were running Windows XP home version. Any ideas on this would be appreciated because if I cant get into it it looks like im going to have to take it to PC world!

Is there a way to fix it so everything shows as bright/dark as intended or is it because my monitor is old?

So is there anything you/I/we could do?

A little info for some-one who missed the dual core lecture.

i have spotted a pc i like the look of to replace the one i am currently using but i am unsure about the processor.

if it says for example AMD Athlon 6400 dual core,
i know i can find the speed lets say in this case it is 2.1Ghz,
does this mean 2 processors each running at 2.1 Ghz. or both running less to produce a total processing power of 2.1 Ghz.

any info on getting round this jargon would be appreciatted

Get this message when I close my laptop to have it hibernate. Get an audible sound and this message. When I open the laptop again and close the message, I can re-close the laptop and it will then go into hibernation.

my monitor suddenly turned off and would not come back on until i restarted the p.c
this only started when i downloaded the game"sonic riders",and upon installtion the monitor turned off for the first time,it then repeated this 3 times over the next 24hrs
i can only put it down to the game,as everything was fine until this installation
was this a virus or something similar,however i did a full virus scan with a.v.g and it was clear,so were anti-spy scans
all hardware is working fine,so any suggestions would be appreciated
having worked on p.c,s for the last 5 years this is a new one to me
mt monitor is a hewlett packard 19" t.f.t monitor
thanks

My laptop came with SiS 760(MX) graphics card and it is really crappy. Can this graphics card be replaced, or is there some way that I can render OpenGL through the hardware instead of software rendering. I am trying to run beryl, but it is incredibly slow. Any comments would be appreciated...
