I have 2 computers and 2 monitors.. I want to access all harddrives on all PCs.. but I want to use 2 montiors at once for double desktop space.

So I would take one graphics card out of one PC and put it in the second PC.. could I still access the hard drive on the second PC even though it doesn't have a graphics card?

I have purchased an advent computer on ebay and was told it was wiped clean by the previous owner. However, it was to have windows xp operating system on it and when starting it up it asks for a system disk (which I put in) and it says its not recognising the hard drive. Any suggestions?????????

I went into Control Panel to Add/Remove trying to remove the weather channel. It gives me the choice of : Change/Remove. I read to right click on it, but it didn't come up with anything. When I tried the Change and the Remove, it came up with: " Initializing Wise Installation Wizard". But the Weather Channel is still there. What else can I do to get rid of it?

My computer is 2 years old, everything was fine with it, until recently it starts to shut down on its own. I could be surfing the net and it shuts down by itself. It has start to shut down like 4 or more times. And it is complicated to make it work again, like if i press the on button I immediately need to press the space bar key or else this thing won't start. Sometimes not even doing this will help. Could it be viruses?

My computer tell's me that I had viruses but that they were deleted, but still im confused. One more thing my computer started all this problem when it was making a loud noise, but then it got rid of it self. Whats going on?

I am going to be purchasing a new high-performance computer or laptop. Laptop would be preferable for portability reasons, but I realize they are more costly. I need to be able to multi-task using memory and processor-intesive software such as CAD and Excel, as well as have multi-media capabilities and desktop publishing.

I am experimenting on my computer in the BIOS. But I accidentally clicked the Disable command on the Video On-Board. How can I change it back to 32MB because I can't see anything in the monitor. How can I set it back if there is nothing seen in the monitor.

We upgraded from a X800 to an X850 but random power loss was happening with the addition of the power demanding X850, so we switched back to the X800 as a temporary solution, now Windows is just a black screen.

The re-replaced X800 will display BIOS and that loading screen with the Windows logo, but the splash screen and desktop all appear as black. There is sound so we know Windows is there.

I just want my AutoCAD to come back!!!!
