I will be working at a computer store, and I had virus scanner on it, I was wondering if I can plug this into a computer with a virus, and it wont get infected/corrupted.

I've got a Maxtor Hard drive that I use in an external enclosure. It's a ATA 120GB drive. I used to use it with my PC, but I recently switched to a macbook core2duo. I can read from the drive, but I can't write to it. I was wondering...how do I reformat the drive so I can use it to store files using both my macbook and PC? Do I use Disk Utility that comes with OSX and if so, which format? MacOS Extended, MacOS Extended (Journaled), MS-DOS File System, etc?

Thanks!

My Inspiron 700m LCD recently went bad and the LCD is flickering, flashing, and displaying tons of vertical lines. I was told by a computer technician that there are currently a few lawsuits going on against Dell about faulty LCD's. Does anyone else have this same problem with their 700m? Is there any way I can get Dell to fix or replace my computer? Please help!

My computer says that I have 100 gigs of space used on the hard drive, but I can only account for 60 gigs in all my folders. Where can the other 40 gigs be? I know the registry could be using some, but 40 gigs?

I have seen many different ways of cleaning a keyboard from using alchohol to putting it in the dishwasher. I would like to know if anyone actually damaged their keyboards by cleaning it. Such as removing lettering using rubbing alchohol. I just want to know what doesn't work.

ok, it was shut down at night, the next morning tried to start it up and it would get to windows loading screen and look like it was booting up, and all of a sudden went blank and the indicator light that shows its on starts blinking, kept turning it off and on until I finally got it started in safe mode ran a virus scan, and it found nothing, bought external hard drive to back up music and pictures, which wasnt easy to do, kept freezing, but got them backed up, then ran a disk check, it shut down on that 3 or 4 times before I finally got the disk check to run all the way through, I couldnt get it boot up in normal mode but one time, took the cover off and blew out the dust but that didnt help either, now it automatically within 2 sec. goes back to blinking indicater light, all the fans are working took cover off to clean some more dust out of it and checked the fans, it runs long enough for me to see the fans running, but still not getting it boot up. No restore disks came with it

Hi, I just purchased a brand new BROTHER Int. 1270e Fax machine, and the cartridge did not last very long. If you were to replace with a factory cartridge, it has 450 pages capacity of printing. If you bought it brand new, is it normal for the cartridge to run out so fast in the first brand new boxed item came with the machine?

Hi, My girlfriends laptop is having issues. First the adapter she got with the computer died on her today so she went to get another one and within 2 hours it killed that one too. I tried them on my laptop to see if they were turly dead and they were. Any ideas as to what might be causing this? Could a short in her laptop be frying the adapters?
Thanks

I had a computer about 2 years ago that I bought brand new. Soon after I purchased it, I had to get it repaired as it simply wouldn't turn on. The diagnosis was that the motherboard was destroyed. It was replaced and I used the computer for a while after this. Until it happened again. The computer refused to turn on and again was diagnosed as the motherboard. Thinking that this was just a faulty machine, I bought a Dell and used that for a while, only for it to refuse to boot up one day. Strangely enough, it turned out the motherboard was destroyed again. Could this possibly be due to my power outlet or surge protector, or even the location of the computer? I don't know what a motherboard is or does (not extremely computer literate)... also don't know what causes a motherboard to break. Any help would be appreciated.
