So my new laptop has one of those screens that's "IN YOUR FACE" shiny. Which is nice, but it also leaves fingerprints like crazy. Fingerprints that don't seem to go away no matter what type of cloth I try to wipe them off with. What can I use to make it so that I don't see little prints all over my screen?

i have a dell inspiron 6000 notebook with 100GB sata drive(toshiba)
i deleted a logical partition through windows disk management then another drive also got deleted and 2 extra drives other than the deleted drives appeared with a space of 20000GB and in the tray it gave the message 'hardware is installed and ready to use'
.I restarted my notebook thinking that problem might be resolved but now i am unable to boot XP. safe mode is not working (giving blue screen).
XP CD recovery console is accessing only 1 drive(not primary partition) in the hard disk and it is unable to check for errors in the disk.
XP setup gives a message that it cannot access the hard disk and cant give the details of the partitions in my disk.
can i get back my notebook to working condition without losing any data if possible

I have a Dell laptop and I am trying to take off the ATA password. There is a user password and a master password set. I can change the user password because I was the one that set it, but I cannot take it off. It is asking me for the master password, but I don't remember ever setting this. Is there some kind of factory default?

I have a Westell 327w router (ISP=Verizon) and my laptop has a 1390 WLAN Mini-Card. Someone else's laptop connected at the router without any trouble, and my laptop also connected to another router, so I know that both pieces work. Can anyone suggest what the problem is?

This morning when I turned on my laptop it said to me: Yo Buddy! Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: System32\Drivers\Ntfs\.sys

I have tried everything. I cannot even get to the "r" at the first screen.
I have tried to re-boot the machine wityh the XP disk in the cd-rom. It will not let me go anywhere and tells me:
Yo Buddy! Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: System32\Drivers\Ntfs\.sys

I cannot even get into the command prompt mode, safe mode or anywhere else. I am completely locked out and don't know what to do!

Anybody know what the hell is going on with my computer.

Your knowledge and wisdom in this dark field of binary coding is greatly appreciated!

CHeers, Rob

I've been looking around for a while now, trying to find a good laptop for a good price. My limit was $700. Here's what I've come up with:

Dell Inspiron 1501
OS - Windows Vista Home Basic
Processor - AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core
Memory - 1GB DDR2 SDRAM at 533MHz
Hard Drive - 60 GB
Drives - 8X CD/DVD+/-RW w/ double-layer write capability
Display - 15.4" Widescreen w/ TrueLife Glossy
Sound Card - Integrated Sound Blaster® Audigy™HD Software Edition
Battery - 85 WHr 9-cell Lithium Ion Primary Battery

Let me know what you think. It's only $584 shipped. I'm basically just going to be using this to watch DVD's at work (Hence the SoundBlaster upgrade) and I'll probably use it for some programming and software applications at school.
