The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite and it's a little old.Awhile ago the screen wasn't bending in every position and now it either has to be shut or all the way bent back because that's the only way I can use it.Or I have to hold it with my left hand and type with my right hand...that's inconvenient.

I bought a new Canon (LiDe 25) scanner. While scanning I noticed that Dark Pink (Fuchsia) color changed to light mauve (purplish) & Red slightly changes to Orange tone in the scanned picture. I tried all software setting in photoshop & canon scan gear but the color variations won't go.
My question is that, incase there is some technical problem in the scanner, I want to know exactly what it can be & is it expensive to fix ? Advise from professionals anticipated.
Thanking you all in advance.

I have a laptop with core2duo processor and presently using XP professional as operating system. The laptop has a s-video port. My TV also has s-video port. I could only project the laptop matter (say a movie) into TV screen using F5 button like using a projector. But the picture quality in TV is not good. There is no sound in TV and laptop sound is the only sound source. The latest NVIDIA-Geforce GA7400 available in my laptop is not of any use. Can anybody advise solution to get good picture with sound in TV from laptop?

I hava Sony Ericsson w810i and I connect it to my laptop via the provided USB cable into a USB port at the back of the laptop.

Sometimes, but not very often, this works and I can transfer music etc. But more often than not, lately I have been given the error message "USB Device not recognised" and it tells me that the device must have malfunctioned.

Seriously it's really annoying me and I don't know what the problem is. Any ideas/solutions.

And please, don't tell me to "reboot and try again" or "try a different port" cus I've done this plenty of times. And advising me to buy a new USB Cable is useless because I already had 2 (1 from my earlier phone) and am now using my brother's. :/

Cheers

I connected the HDD to another computer. It was structed (XP boot logo appeared continuosly with out loading) Starting computer with a rescue disk also was unsuccesful. This problem occured when I was partitioning my HDD for XP. Computer was structed during partitioning.

- Can I repair this using a IDE to USB converter?

- Can I repair this using a bootable Linux CD?

Thank you very much..........

Kamal.
