I have a 6 month old pc with vista. I brought it to Staples and they sold me an S cable. I plugged that in to my laptop and the tv. Now I am trying to get the laptop to be viewed through the tv??? I tried to configure it through windows media centre but I am a bit lost. Thanks for any help in advance.

I've always wanted my own laptop,because the one I use, I can't get on until 7:00PM every night because it's also my dad's laptop for work. And, I sometimes need to get homework done, and I can't because the computer is not home. My birthday is January 22, and I really want my own computer..I don't really like laptops though, so I'm going to ask for a desk top..[laptops are waaay more expensive than desktops], so should I ask for one? Or would it be a bad idea? Oh, and I'm asking my grandparents for the computer, and they are sorta rich, so I'm sorta fine, but I still think that its too much. Should I ask for a desktop for my birthday? Please help! Much thanks! :]

Hi all. I have finally decided to get a new laptop. Basically, I think I have found the one that will be best for me and it is quite expensive. I dont want to spend all this money only to find that the laptop I bought, is actually no good. Just want to quickly add that the sole purpose for this laptop is going to be gaming, both single player and online MMO's. :)

Basic specs for it are as follows:
Base System-Intel Core 2 duo processor T7800,Operating System- Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bit, Memory- 4GB, Video Card- Dual NVIDIA Geforce 8700M GT with SLI technology.

Im pretty sure thats all the important stuff. Hope I have not missed anything. I want it to be able to run the latest games well and on high settings (obviously). Games such as stalker, Bioshock, maybe crysis, Supreme Commander. Also future MMO's such as 'Age of Conan'.
Sorry about dragging this on. Anyway does this seem like the perfect laptop for a gamer right now? Thankyou for reading and any help would great! :)

I am trying to install the Microsoft Office 2003 with my laptop. I typed in the certificate of authenticity and I made sure they are right, but it's still invalid! What is the problem? is it because I did not register this laptop?

How many of you have ditched your desktop for your perfect laptop??

I just purchased a HP Pavilion 14.1 inch screen laptop...and I'm in LOVE. I sold my desktop and 19 in. monitor...and I keep asking myself, "why did i wait so long?" These days, the laptops seem just as powerful as the desktop. And, they are so portable and convenient. The other I watched the new DVD called HALLOWEEN, all the while surfing the internet and working on a word document at the same time. It was too much. Oh, yeah...and I was on my LAZ-Y-BOY recliner, too. I was in total heaven.

Have any of you left the desktop behind for your laptop pleasures? I'm interested to know your stories....

It just started getting noisy today. For instance, after the fan has stopped running, the blades will still be turning and I can hear them. They would normally make no sound. Is my fan going bad? Also, it starts doing that only after I have been using the laptop for a half hour or so. Do you think it's going bad?
