Hardware - March 2007

My computer quest goes on...

I have seen a very reasonably priced MacBook in my local computer shop. However I live in Japan and my Japanese isn't strong enough to ask if the OS (Japanese) can be reset to English. The computer is a recent model, less than 1 year old.

Can I switch the OS to English? If not, does the start-up disk with the OS on it come with English? How can I get the new OS when it comes out in a few weeks?

Thanks a lot to all you kind Mac fans!

Warren.

i just bought it today, and when i opened it, there is a note mentioning that the card needs extra power fro the PSU by using the 6-pin powr cables...

the note inside the box also mention that the card will not support 4-pin to 6 pin power converters... does it mean I must buy a power supply with a 6pin power cable...?

I bought a monitor today out of the box from circuit city. Since there was no box I got a discount so I went for it. Anyway I have the cable hooking my laptop up to the monitor and the screen on the monitor says "check cable signal" which I have. Am I supposed to install it or something? I dont have any directions because it didnt come with the box.

The driver seems to be working properly, and everything in the Device Manager is working properly. When I look in "Sounds and Audio Devices" in the control panel, there is nothing listed under "Volume". It used to work fine. What happened?

well i just switched from an AMD 64 3400 with a 2.0 processing speed to a AMD 4000 with a 2.4 processing speed. Works fine, everything good, except.. my processor keeps overheating. I know this because my fan will turn on very loud whenever i try playing games. I got a heat detecting program and it is a lot hotter than it should be. I also tried cleaning the fan and the metal cooling thing. I need to know what i should do to get it from overheating so much.

I'm using the resolution of 1024 by 768 for my 15" laptop. However, when I surf the internet, the content of the Window (eg. font size) is too small to be viewed. I've tried to reduce the resolution but everything was too big and looked weird. So, do you have any idea to increase the size of the Window's content, especially font size, without changing its resolution?
