Laptops & Notebooks - December 2006

I left my laptop on standby earlier today and when I came home I went to go on it only to discover the graphics are there but the screen is very dark. I have tried switching it off and on again to no avail, has anybody any ideas what's up, thanks in advance.

I am planning on buying a laptop from Velocity Micro. Anyone know when a good time to buy one is? Being as it is Christmas, I want to save money buying it at the right time! Or when the top stuff come out. Conroe is out already so I don't think much else is coming out.

I've had a Dell laptop for two years this week. It seems to me that I have to charge the battery more frequent now.
I'm sure I am using about the same length of time, since I first got it. On the average how often do they have to be replaced. Thanks.

I switched to using a laptop from a desktop, but I was wondering if it was possible to use my old desktop HDD as an external drive for my laptop and how I might go about configuring it.
Thanks

I connect my laptop to an external monitor and when I close the lid, the resolution decreases on the computer/monitor.

When I keep my laptop open, the resolution is normal. Also, when I close it, then open it, I can notice the resolution change from something low back to the normal high one.

Hello, I am technically challenged when it comes to computers other than what I use it for in my job.

I have a Dell Inspirion 6000 which recently had a virus. It was so messed up I sent it to warranty for repair. How do I install drivers? Also what does this corrective repair action from Dell mean: Problem was found to be limited to customers software? System Board repair? LCD Display? Thanks for your knowledge.

Okay... I'm progressively getting pissed off at my laptop.

I've only had it for 4 months and it's pretty new. But ever since I got it, whenever I listened to music the entire laptop would freeze and sound like a high frequency broken record for about 10 seconds.

It's usually fine afterwards before doing it again many moments later.

But the other day after it did that freezing thing, the sound from then on ran in slow motion. Also my laptop in itself is running 3x's slower than what it used to be.

I've tried cleaning up the registry, and turning off many things running using the task manager. It's quicken up the speed a little bit (as far as I can tell).

But still when I play music from iTunes or anything with sound from any program it would run in slow motion!

Or if I open a few necessary programs, the sound drags on and on and becomes distorted yet once again.

I cannot bear to listen to anything that ridiculously slow!

Is there anything I can do?

Since my daughter is only 12 years old I decided that she too young to have a tablet pc and that the only thing she is going to get is a normal laptop(a good kind though). So...now I am getting it! But I need to know how much it costs first. Though I don't know what brand I should get it either?
