How much data will a 512MB (Imation brand) 2.0 flash drive hold? Will my about 300 songs and 250 photos fit? Will I have room to backup software onto it? I have no idea how to backup anything.

Computer store tech tells me to do this as soon as possible as my hard drive has failed the "SMART short self test" as well as extended surface scan tests. I'm advised to return it to the store but to backup everything quickly and turn the computer off as death could occur at any time!!

All help will be greatly appreciated.

After reformatting my HDD and reinstalling Windows XP version 5.1.2600 I have a problem with my on board audio device which is C-Media AC 97. I tried to reinstall the drivers from the CD which came with the motherboard but I get a message CODE 10. I went to the site of C-MEDIA and down loaded all that was meant for onboard device drivers. But still my device not working properly. Some of the drivers are free but some are for sale through C-net, which obiously I don't want to purchase. I also opened the CPU in order to find out the type and the number of the audio device but could not locate it. I am not an expert in that!! Can somebody tell me how to know the correct number of the device in order to download the required drivers? Can anybody tell me an alternative site where I can get these required drivers without the hassels of using a credit card?

I am planning on buying a Dell desktop soon. The computer I want is the Dell Dimension C521. The following are the stats:

AMD Sempron Processor 3400
512 MB DDR2 (memory)
80GB (hard drive)
NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE Graphics GPU
Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio (sound card)

The #1 reason for the computer will be to type Word documents (I'm a writer) and Internet surfing (no porn!). But I was also considering playing DVDs on it. (I have no desire to burn CDs/DVDs or do stuff with photos or music. What I just mentioned is absolutely it: Word, Internet, and possibly DVD playing. Nothing more.)

What I want to know: is this enough power to play a DVD on? Will the picture be good? The computer can play DVDs, but I don't know how good the quality will be. I have my own real DVD player, but I thought, maybe I should use the computer to play DVDs just in case my housemates are hogging the tv--that way I can watch a movie on my computer in my room. Please help.

Is it any good or should I spend a bit more to get a Intel processor?
I'm only really going to be using it for WP, DTP and databases, etc, and occasionally listening to music.

A laptop is portable and great to use in class to write notes, but I don't type too much faster than I write.
A P.C. is bigger, but it's more reliable, it can be upgraded, has more memory, and can do lots of more stuff.
A laptop's internet connection may frequently disconnect if it's wireless.
A P.C. is not portable and I may not be able to do homework everywhere I go, but that's why they invented C.D.s and Flash Drives.

What else should I consider? What do you think would be better to buy? Which will help me more in college. Which has more benefits?

I know its probably very simple, but I never adjust any of my computer screens settings. Okay the desktop that shows up when you turn your computer on (Im running Microsoft XP) that has the blue strip at the bottom with the start menu and shows what web page you are on, well my 2yr old somehow moved it to the top instead of the bottom. It may not be a big deal but it annoys the crap out of me. Please help me fix this!!

I have a new pc that I've have been adding mods to increase it's performance. But I'm concerned about heat. Is it possible to install a case fan into my pc with cutting a hole into it? I know that the hot air must be let let out in order to cool. I must say that I'm alittle more than scare to measure and cut into my case.. I do however have a air hole on the side of the case.. Can I use that?
