I have just purchased a Mac Mini, but I realized that I didn't get a monitor yet. I looked online for monitors and I was wondering if this monitor will work on my Mac Mini http://shop2.outpost.com/product/5177486?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
or will this work
http://shop2.outpost.com/product/5227387?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
If both of them works, which monitor should I get?
Thanks!

The laptop is used infrequently throughout the day, and is used for about 2 hours every evening. I read somewhere that I shouldn't completely turn off the computer in between, because it's either bad for the hard drive or bad for the battery life (I can't remember which).

For the past few months, I've been having issues with my computer when plugging in USB devices. First I thought it was a problem with my iPod, but now I realize it's pretty much any USB device. 95% of the time, inserting or removing any USB device causes my PC to BSOD.

I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium on an eMachines (ugh, piece of crap) T6544. It's been doing this since around August, I believe. I have had this PC since December 2006, and hadn't had any problems until August.

I've tried System Restore (doesn't even go back close enough to where this problem could have been fixed) and no luck.

How can I stop this nuisance from continuing?

I had set up an older HP for my kids and they insisted on playing runescape. The conclusion? One day the computer froze up, they turned it off and the video will not reboot the video. You can hear it trying to boot up but there is no video at all.

It is an HP, 800MHZ, 128MB RAM, 20 gig hard drive.

It's not working anyway so I figured I'd give it a shot as a computer project of my own...but what type of PCI video card should I go for? What MB, etc?

Most new Laptops come with one year warranty. The salespersons at the dealers always recommend getting a 3-year warranty from them (2 years on top of the mfr's 1 year with more coverage). What's the chance of a Laptop's breaking down in the first 3 years? I am scared to listen to what the salesperons have warned but C$350 is not a small amount when compared to the cost of the Laptop. Is it really very expensive to fix a Laptop as I was told? Please advise. Thanks a lot.

this is a question ive always wondered,

when upgrading a hard drive (ex. 150GB to a 300GB or more) do you have to have a fresh copy of the operating system or is there a way to keep all of your files AND programs and transfer to the new hard drive?

I have 2 WiXP install boot CD's; (1) XP Pro install boot CD (2) XP Home Boot Disc (came with the pc). I would rather use the one that came with it as that is what it's built to use. I formatted the HD and started installing Win with the CD that came with it. At 84% done of copying files progress bar it started giving me an error message that was saying some DLL files were not found and to put the disc that contained the files and try again. I hit retry a few times and tried the other cd and neither worked. So, I hit "skip file" and kept doing it for every file for the rest of the installation. I knew this wasn't going to work, but I figured that I could repair it afterward if I could get into Win. But, after the restart and now I am getting this error message: “NTLDR is Missing : Press ctrl + alt + Delete to Restart”. (read the reast in the additional details)
