Laptops & Notebooks - July 2007

When I turn my computer on, a startup menu appears asking if I want to restart my computer using safe mode, safe mode with networking, safe mode with command prompt, last known good configuration, or start windows normally. I've tried all of them. After I select one, the windows start up screen appears like it's loading then a blue screen appears saying there is some sort of unmountable bbot volume and a bunch of other stuff. This only appears for two seconds and the computer shuts off and automatically starts up again.

Whenever I hit shutdown or restart, my laptop does nothing. I've tried hitting ctrl alt delete twice and other alternatives to no avail. Has anyone heard of this? Is there a program that will restart my laptop or is there a simple way to fix this?
Thanks

My laptop has built-in wireless, but I was wondering if there was a way to pick up far-away signals. I saw the Linksys Range Expander, but didn't know if it would be useful. Is that product to further expand YOUR own network, or is it to better pick up signal from SOMEONE ELSE's network?
Also, are there any known products or software that can help my laptop pick up distant wireless signals or to make signals stronger?
Thanks

Without all the details, I have two laptops (A and B), they both work wirelessly at House 1, but at House 2, laptop B works well, but laptop A doesn't hold a connection very well and if it is able to hold a connection, it only gets about 33k. If I connect laptop A at House 2, via LAN line it's ok. Does anyone have any clue how to fix this?

Will there be any compatibility issues? For example, will XP have any hardware issues or not be able to run to the hardware's 'potential'? And does Vista come with a recovery disk like XP did...Just in case. Thanks

few years ago the goal to buy a good monitor was the one that didnt reflect the room lights or the sunshine from the windows (to avoid the eyes strain), now the newest laptops have a bright display, almost like a mirror, you can see yourself on it clearly. How can it be this change ? my eyes are the same.

I've been on a MacBook Pro for a half a year, and I've discovered that many Mac users lie on Y! Answers.

They say that Macs get no viruses. Yet, I've at least got one serious one, and a few pop-ups have managed to come out.

That Macs offer OS X and Windows support - the best of both worlds. Running Windows on mine didn't work out so well, and I gave up. Plus, isn't it kind of cheating for Apple to do that, but not allow OS X onto other machines? Kind of a cheat to me.

They also make false accusations against Vista.

The UAC prompt only comes up a few times, and it eventually adjusts to the way you work, so that it doesn't pop-up that often. OS X has something similiar to this.

Vista performs badly. On crappy PC's yes. But high-end hardware works well.

Barely any compatiblity - I've got lots of compatibility. Just one or 2 things didn't work.

PC's are all bad. Not true at all. My Vaio works well.

Bugs are everywhere. Not!

So why do Mac users like to lie?
