Input my memory card from my digital camera into my computer so that the images can download? Or do I need a USB cord? I have a Dell computer. If so, where can I insert the memory card? Thanks for your help

djust the contrast and brightness to maximum but nothing happens. I have done research about Catode Ray Tube and it tells about something screwing at the back of the flyback transformer. Does anyone have the same problem like this?

I hope I put this in the right place!

Whenever I play a Nancy Drew game, I have trouble seeing. I'll walk Nancy down a hallway, and I can barely see a thing, thus missing a lot of clues. I was also watching a Nancy Drew trailer, and could barely see a thing! The contrast on my computer is all the way up, so does anyone know how I can make things brighter?

Most people I see posting on the internet or hear talking about video cards always say how much ram their video card has, but completely ignore the chipset. (For example they would just say it is a 256Mb card, instead of it is a Geforce 7800 with 256Mb of ram. Not understanding that a Raedon 9600 could have the same amount of ram and much worse performance.) I feel like this is a big problem among less tech savvy gamers.

Why doesn't anyone understand that how much ram a video card has is a small factor in how good the card is?

It's second time that I've bought a HD and it's capacity is not even close to stated one. Disk Management shows only 2/3 or 1/2 of disk capacity. I would expect maybe 10 or 20 GB's, but not half less. Is it an old BIOS problem? PC is 4 years old.
What's funniest - If I format the 250 GB HD in external disk case over USB port, everything is OK. But when formatting it plugged in PC (on IDE) capacity is downgraded.

Im looking to buy a new laptop-i like the idea of a tablet, and I love the idea of the touchscreen feature. I would like the screen to be at least around 15 inches, with high def. I need the finger scroll and touch mouse pad. Money isn't really an issue-I would like to stay under the $2500 range though. I also need to have wireless internet anywhere I go, and a long battery life. Nothing too heavy either cus I want to haul it around a lot. Webcam and the fingerprint password verification are interesting, but optional. CD/DVD burner would also be nice-but optional as well/ If anyone out there could help me and maybe make a few suggestions as to which products you think I might like-that would be absolutely great. I've been shopping around, but don't always know exactly what I'm looking at, so any help would be great. OK-thanks!

So I'm about to buy the ASUS EN7300GT off newegg.com and I need a power supply to go with it. I don't have much experience with power supplies. What should I be looking for in terms of specs of the power supply? I know I need a 400+watt power supply, other than that I don't know much. What are good reliable brands? I was considering these three:

On some of my windows, I get little black lines(dashes) in them. When I scroll up or down they either go away, or new ones replace the older ones. If the window is colored dark, they show up as white lines(dashes). I just upgraded my video card. Is there something I can do? Has anyone ever experienced this? I have an Nvidia card, and a dell 20 in. monitor using the dvi cable.

There is an old computer emulator I use frequently that runs under DOS. The sound worked fine on my Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 card under Windows ME, but since upgrading to XP, the sound is now noisy and unclear. Oddly enough, the same program runs fine on my laptop under XP. The laptop has a built in Altec Lansing sound card. Would changing to a non-Sound Blaster card that is 5.1 compatible in my desktop computer possibly clear up this problem?

It's a generic Dell model that's about a year old now. I guess leaving it without a screen saver or hibernation killed it. How much would it cost to fix it because it won't turn on at all. If it's too expensive, how much is a lower end replacement model?
