Hardware - April 2007

I'm printing my own wedding invitations with my HP all in one inkjet printer and using MS Word. However, I'm having a very difficult time getting a clean print out on my small 4bar envelopes. They are 3.63 x 5.125. My address comes out centered and looks just how I want it to look but there is always a smudge, ink line, or ink dots somewhere on the envelope! It's getting very frustrating!

Asside from using labels or having them professionally printed, what can I do to stop this ink problem? I've already wasted 20 envelpes on mistakes and already have to buy more but would like to avoid making even more mistakes. Thankyou for any help you can offer!!

I have several of these laying in boxes from various SONY products, and wanted to know if I could use them for other peripheral devices that call for such connection.

I have a new computer system which has an Nvidia 7300LE 512mb Video card. Unfortunately, the card has somehow been damaged and it now won't display anything on the monitor. I have decided to replace the video card. How do I replace the card? And can I buy any make of card or does it have to be another Nvidia card?

My monitor (flat screen old school CRT) starts literally popping and the image shrank to nothing in the center of the screen.
The popping would also occurr when the computer itself was off and the monitor was cold, as well.
Now nothing displays.
Any thoughts, friends? I'd be much obidged. Thanks.

Your printer has been infected by a virus and is printing gibberish. After staring at several printed pages for a while, you realize that it is printing every line inside-out. In other words, the left half of each line is being printed starting in the middle of the page and proceeding out toward the left margin. Similarly, the right half of each line is being printed starting at the right margin and proceeding in toward the middle of the page. For example, the line
THIS LINE IS GIBBERISH

is being printed as

I ENIL SIHTHSIREBBIG S
Your task is to write a program in C++/Java/C#, to unscramble a String line from its printed form back into its original order. You can assume that line contains an even number of characters.

My work laptop is on the fritz, but I was able to burn my data files to a CD. Now I want to backup my outlook pst files, but one is 500 MB and the other is 1.5 GB. How can I backup the bigger file? The laptop only has a CD writer, not a DVD writer. And, the laptop is not able to access the network, so putting the pst on some share drive is not an option.

I haven't tried yet, but I don't think I will be able to access Outlook to split the big pst file into several smaller pst files. If I can access Outlook, then I don't think this will be a problem. If I can't access Outlook, I think I'm screwed.

I've heard really bad stories about the apple accessories (keys sticking and scroll balls locking after 2 or 3 months) and would like to know what better options are out there.

I'm also not looking to spend that much. Just ones that work and don't break so quickly...

I know that relatively, my laptop (the new compaq presario v3000) should be fast. It has good specs (1GB RAM, 1.66Ghz Core 2 duo). My friend bought an acer with the same specs, but his laptop is faster. is it due to the antivirus (avast free) i have installed? I also want to upgrade my RAM. But how do I get to know if I can upgrade it? Thanks lots
