First off I'd like to say that I'm really greatful for any help that I can get, this is a problem that I've been having for over a year now. I have an Hp Paviliona 1230n pc. The mouse that came with the computer worked fine for a few months, then all of a sudden it froze, and it never worked again. I then got an HP Deluxe Optical mouse and it to worked fine for a few months, but then it started to freeze up too. I would be on the internet or opening files, and it would freeze. Sometimes I could get it to move again if I just waited for a minute other times I'd have to unplug the usb cord then plug it back in. It's been doing this for a year now. I then got a logitech wireless laser mouse, and it worked fine for a few weeks, but now it freezes too, about every other second. I switched back to the optical mouse and it's been doing what it always does. I checked usb hub, and different things but it still does it. Also a message pops up saying that the usb has malfunctioned. Please Help.

I'm comparing two laptops (the Toshiba Satellite 15.4" Widescreen Notebook PC (A215-S4807)@$780 and the Toshiba Satellite 15.4" Widescreen Notebook PC (A215-S4697)@$600). They differ in price by about $180. I can put in another Gig of RAM into the first one for $50. The second one is .20Ghz faster and has a webcam. Which one should I get?

I want to sell it. Not the entire thing just the CPU, so I wanted to know what I am selling. All I know is that it is an IBM desktop...is there anywhere in/on the computer I can find this information.

Sometimes when I start my laptop (with Windows Vista), a message window comes up and says "Windows Explorer failed to start" -or something similar. Then my desktop screen won't appear, making me have to restart my computer.
Other times another window comes up and says "COM Surrogate" failed to start.

Is there any way how I can fix these problems. I have a Toshiba laptop that I just got.

I tried using the dual monitor adapter that came with my ibook but the end of it and the end of the cable for the display are different sizes and won't connect. Do I need another adapter or am I just doing it wrong??

My PC has a video card memory of 256mb(AGP) and a 512mb DDR2 SDRAM. I installed a latest game and the graphics of the game is robotics or slow motion. I knew I have to upgrade my 512mb DDR2 SDRAM but my AGP video card slot is only single. Meaning, the video card is not upgradeable. Will my PC improved the graphics if I upgrade my SDRAM only and retain my video card 256mb(AGP)? Thank you again nice people.
