I have recieved "Page cannot be display,can't find server" messages.Spoke with Dell x2 they say computer system is ok talk to server. Spoke to server they had me delete cookies, temporary files and history then suggusted a full system scan which I did with windows live security, they said I had no viruses or spyware, registry did not need to be cleaned and 10.2 mg temporary files cleaned or compressed by 5.5 mg. I don't know what any of this means but the problem is still there. Anyone got any suggestions or help?

I just bought a used IBM Thinkpad T21 and it was working fine except for some battery issue but i am going to replace that but i bought a game to download in the laptop but once i downloaded the screen went black and although the laptop is on i cant see anything. After charging it a little more and leaving it alone for a while i was able to turn it back on but it froze.. and now its back to a black screen again..

Any ideas to why this happens and what i should do about it...?

I have a program on my desktop computer which requires a 25 pin security dongle to be inserted in the parallel port.
I would like to be able to use the program on a new acer 3660 series laptop which I had for christmas but there is no parallel port.
The parallel port to usb converter cables I have been told by some will work and others that it won't.
Can anyone please let me know if they will work or if there are any other options, Thanks.

I have reformatted my hard drive and now I need to get drivers. The problem is I dont know what driver I need for my ethernet controller. I cant connect to the internet to get one of those "driver detectors" until I get an ethernet connection. I have an IBM T40 if that helps. The IBM website does not have ethernet controllers. I only need a generic one that is compatable with my hardware so I can get connected in order to get the right one. Sadly, I can't just look inside to figure it out since its a laptop.

Thanks!

I have a Sony Viao PCG-731 that was given to me by a relative for free. It has a 200mhz processor, two 64MB sticks, and Microsoft 2000 on it. I have cleared out most of the memory and save my files to my 512MB USB. The question I have is that I want to watch downloadable video with ease. I know it is an older laptop and am not expecting too much out of it. I only use it for the internet and some word documents and would like to be able to watch some video clips. It plays video clips but it is very choppy (plays then pauses for a moment and then plays some more). Plus some clips play better than others (why?). I would like to know if there is a program that I can download or something to make this work easier? Is there anything I can do to the settings that might help (I have Windows Media, Quick Time, and Real Player)? What about a video card (would my laptop support one?)? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Our question is how do we go about doing this we would rather know how to do it our self and what is the difference between mb, gb, and kb is. And what the memory capability of each is. Right now for the most part the computers are used to download games that have lots of accessories, and tend to be really slow we were told that by upgrading the memory this problem would improve. Sim2 we already have two expansion packs and we want four more to add to our enjoyment of the game. And still be able to use the laptops for reasearch papers for school. We also have lots of music on the computers for the kids to listen to on long trips. I would like to know how much memory you all would recommend to do this with out having the computer go too slow.
