I walked away from my laptop for about 2 minutes and when I got back, my 3 year old has somehow managed to make my screen appear sideway (ex. what should be the left side of the screen is now the bottom.) It isnt just the toolbar she moved, it's the WHOLE screen. pLEASE HELP! I can't really see what I am typing so I hope this all sounds understandable

I have a macbook pro, lithium-polymer battery.

Does the computer draw power from the supply cord when plugged in, or does the supply cord feed the battery where the computer still runs itself from the battery?

If you know in general that will help too. Thanks.

my keyboard turns off and my mouse moves with a LONG delay! (I have a laptop that is docked on a docking station) If I use the laptop touch-pad while it is on the docking station, it works no problem, same with the keyboard of the laptop while on docking station, but the external mouse and keyboard don't work correctly unless I completely restart my computer again. So my question is, anyone know why this happens or how to fix it?

Hi! I have recently purchased a Dell Inspiron 6400 with the Intel 940 chipset; and was wondering if I could install the ATI Mobility Radeon X1400? I have found a couple of the ATI boards on Ebay for cheap; and was wondering if the upgrade was possible.

Okay I'm planning on buying a laptop today, I have a couple questions which are: When I buy the laptop will it come with internet? If so do I have to pay for it? If it does not already come with internet what do I do and do I have to pay? I already have internet at home with the computer I am currently using, can I share the same files I have on this computer with the laptop?

I have an HP Pavilion ze5385us.... the power cable is messed up and I'd like to replace it, but the ones on the HP website are pretty expensive... I have a different computer so if I have to spend over 100 bucks then forget it. Does anyone know of a good generic brand?

what kind of laptops do you guys have? I was thinking maybe apple because it might get less viruses, except i don't know how true that is. I wanted to get a sony because I think they look good (I know...that's a bad reason, but..), my dad wants to get me an hp because he thinks it's the best price and comes with the most for the price...k thanks guys

Okay, So I have 2 mac computers, which are both fairly old, but work great. One is a iMac G3 400 MHZ (Red in Color) and the other one is a way old PowerPC G3 500 MHZ. I want to be able to take the ram from the powerpc, and put it in the iMac, but i'm not too sure if it's the same ram card. I do know however that the iMac does store both PC100 and PC133 ram. Does anyone know what kind of ram came in a PowerPC G3 Mac computer? And if so, will it work with my iMac?

Check the computers out for yourself to better understand what exactly i'm talking about

I have a Dell latitude {with mouse pad attached to use with finger} and sometimes for no reason the pointer will just go haywire all across the screen and I can't get it back and have to shut the laptop to get it working again, also I'll be typing a report or what not and the blinker will just move to another part of the page and I end up typing in the wrong spot and in the middle of other sentences...Anyone know why? and how to stop it?

I need a laptop for school next year but I dont know which kind I want. The macbooks have the weight, size, and price I want and they offer a decent battery life. Ive never had a Mac, Ive used only Windows. I do not like Windows very much and while my PC is old now it never seemed to work very well. I frequently lost data, it always freezes, I had to do numerous system restores, so Im not too happy with my Windows experience, but its all Ive known about. So I understand that Macs dont freeze or crash or anything. I know its a different OS, but with some time I'll be able to learn it. People have told me that Mac doesnt have 2 much software available for it, but all I really want is a good computer that will last me the next 4 years of school and hopefully my small home office the first year or two, but that may be pushing it lol. Ive spoken w/ some people who got "great deals" on Dell or Gateway laptops for like 599 only to see them blow up in less than a year.
