On a regular 256 MB flash drive, you can increase the maximum memory capacity to 4 GB. Where do you get the software, and how do you reprogram the flash drive?

I need a suggestion about the best dell laptop that has a bluetooth/infrafred interface. It should also have more disc space and fast processor and it should cost like $700-$800.

Even if it isn't in the specification?

Don't feel like I need to add any more detail to this, question is in the title!

I was just look at laptop specifications and realized that the only optical drive it states is the DVDRW one, does this mean It'll have no CD-ROM drive or can you use it as a CD-ROM drive?

The present settings are 64 mb and can be increased to 256mb. And it is safe to increase these settings.

If i compress my hard drive will it affect performance? I know it frees up space by compacting the information , but how does it differ from a disk defragmenter?

I would like to see if I can find ink cartridges cheaper than the price Dell offers. Does anyone know if the manufacturer is Lexmark or another and what the model would be in that brand's line.

I tried deleteing it but there are no right click options, also I've run ad-wear and anti-virus scan, with out any effect. I also used the show desk-top buttom and it removes it but once I click something it shows again. Another thing, I can move it around and everything. I've also restarted a few times.

Im running Windows XP any other info that my help just ask.

yeah, iknow there are plenty of other ways to transfer files (like with a flash drive), but it's a long, complicated disaster of a tech situation. one that can only result from my 65 year old "what's a mouse?" mother and the brand new top o' the line computer she decided to buy...

I only have a VGA input on my computer. My TV has 2 HDMI inputs, 3 composite video inputs, 2 S-video inputs and 3 RCA A/V inputs. What type of cable or adapter do I need to connect my computer to the TV? And if there is a cable or adapter, can I buy it at a store (CircuitCity, Bestbuy, RadioShack, Staples etc...)?

If you give me a best answer, you might just get 10 Points!
