Hardware - March 2007

My Averatec Lappy is screwing up I'm not sure if it's a virus or because I recently spilt water on it. Probably the water. Anyway the thing is when I hit certain keys for example Q I get 1q. Can any one tell me whats wrong and what I can do to rectify the problem?

im running windows Xp. I recently installed a program and it seems to have altered my computer's sound configurations.I don't hear any sounds from itunes, etc. I dont know whats wrong, but i tried uninstalling the program and its still the same. I opened up the sounds troubleshooter in control panel but it did not help AT ALL. does anyone know what is wrong or how to fix it --- or better yet how to somehow restore default sound settings?

OK, heres the deal, I went to a computer shop and bought a 320GB IDE hard drive, I already had a masters, but what the computer tec told me to do was to take out the old one, set the new one to masters, and leave the old one alone. Then he told me to install windows on the new one, so I did, and after I would install windows he told me to set the jumpers to the new one to slave, and the old one to master with slave. I did this, and you know what, it worked! Now I'm going to transfer files from one hard drive to the other, but the problem is that I don't know how to do that. also, do I need to format the new drive or what, and how do I update the Bios? I could really use some help right now, thanks!

Used is fine, but operating system must be either XP or Vista. Any recommended brands or models ?

I'm looking for something with at least 512m ram, a decent graphics card, and a processor in the 1.5-2ghz range.

I'd like something that I would generally use at home, but be lightweight and portable for occasional travel, LAN parties, and such.
