I have a T23 Thinkpad, Default setting, Default Hardware, 512-RAM. S Video Cord (no audio cables) is connected through laptop to Samsung HD TV, 2006 Model. I click "fn" && "F7", it continues to Display no signal. I tried lowering the video settings to 600X800, nothing still. I also switched the HDTV to 4:3 ratio, still nothing.

What Do I need, drivers? I can't change default monitor setting via the display menu, button is "grayed-out". Do I need the cable that S-Video on one end and analog cables on the other?

I turned my computer on one morning to find that the Windows media player kept popping up. Every time I shut it down, it would pop up 2 seconds later. I got the player to stop popping up, but the volume control box still keeps popping up every two seconds, alternating between "volume" and "muting".

Any ideas as to why this is happening and how I can get it to stop before it drives me totally insane?

I have ran virus checks, etc., and everything is fine in that regards.

My Dell Laptop D610 will not turn on. I press the power button and the computer will not boot up. I have tried various things 1) Remove the battery 2) Only have connected the AC plug 3) Leave my laptop in the port.

After talking to a techie friend I removed the memory only 1 (256K)on the bottom of the laptop, and not the 2nd because the 2nd is under the keyboard. I re-installed the same memory and then I turned on the computer. Everything booted properly, and then a minute after I boot into windows the computer freezes. After waiting a long time I just hold on to the power botton to shut down. After that it will not work or boot up again until I remove then re-install the memory.

So I went to purchase brand new memory for both slots. The same thing happens. I can boot my computer but it freezes after a minute, and once I shut it down it will not re-boot until I recycle the memory. I have tried using only 1 memory in both slots....but no better. What could the problem be and $$$?
