I have a Dell Windows XP laptop and after I unplug it from the wall, randomly, the screen just darkens. Like it does not completely go black, I can see the faint outline of everything, and everything still functions so I figure that it is the backlight. When I plug the power cord back in, it still stays black until either I put it into hibernation and bring it out, or until I reboot. I've searched the internet a little, and some things I've found are that I need windows service pack 1, or the BIOS is messed up. Well I tried to download the service pack and it said I already had it, and I have no idea how to adjust the BIOS or even how to access it.

Any ideas on what it could be?

macbook comes preinstalled with mac os and mac apps. windows notebook comes preinstalled with windows os. aside from the difference in the os, what is the difference between the two in terms of hardware? what is preventing me from installing a mac os on a windows notebook? what would be the difference? i just don't get why i need to spend extra money on an apple notebook if i can use a normal notebook and install mac on it...

I do alot of things with multimedia that requires me to switch between many programs at one time. I am using a Toshiba Notebook. I have a 512mb RAM card (about 2.5 inches long). The car is DDR2 and made by KOREA. Across form it is an extra RAM slot. Will this card be compatible without causing problems?

OK, so the other day I tried to connect my Xbox360 to Xbox Live by connecting it up to my laptop via an ethernet cable, it wouldn't work (something about an IP address) so I gave up. But ever since the laptop will not connect to the internet, althugh it is connected to the router.

Any ideas what's wrong with the laptop and how I can sort it?

My laptop Dell inspiron needs formating with XP. the cd reader is dead and the only way to make things work is for me to put an external cd burner by usb, insert the XP cd and launch it from there.
Problem is that i cna't seem to find a way to get the external CD drive to boot. I went to BIOS and tried to change the range of the boot drives, but the USB was not one of the choices even though it was on and was plugged in properly.
What can I do?
FYI: My laptop is still functional, i can still go into windows and work from there.
