Next, where can I buy one for a Dell Inspiron 1520?
Thanks!

I was thinking about that dell that comes in pink and all of the different colors, but I don't know yet. I'm a teen and don't need anything expensive or complex (I don't have that much to spend). Under $900 please. I'd love to have a MAC, but I can't afford it. I need it to help a USB port for my flash drive, a CD/DVD drive, and Windows vista or XP. Anyone reccomend anything? Please help me?!

^^It's in pink, but I guess it's sold out.

I do have an original XP disc but the internal drive on my laptop is broke. I hardly use the internal drive so I dont really want to replace the drive due to cost.

I want to downgrade from vista to XP.

How do I know if the hardware that was once running on Vista will work on XP? Hardware being graphics card, wireless card, sound card, ram, and etc.

I have a HP Pavillion DV6000 laptop.

okay. my camera is a Fujifilm Finepix F480. my laptop is an HP Pavilion dv2310us Entertainment Notebook PC. i downloaded the camera's cd into my computer, did everything the directions told me to do, updated all of the software onto my computer from the camera's website and for windows in general, made sure the device driver software was working and updated

but

for some reason, everytime i try to plug my camera into my computer, it says its going to download everything and work, but then it says it failed because it says "Device driver software was not successfully installed". it also says, however, that the Samsung HM160JI SCSI Disk Device is installed properly...

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO :(

does anyone have any idea what i should do?

before that happened, i tried to install sims2, but it said that it's not compatible with vista. then i also tried installing alcohol120%...and that started it, when i tried to run alcohol, it also said that it's not compatible with vista, then after a few seconds, the blue screen appeared.
i also tried booting with safe mode(so i can uninstall sims2 and alcohol), but it still doesnt work and still having the blue screen after loading the components of windows.
but each time i tried booting on normal mode, it does continue to boot until it shows my desktop, but after a few seconds, the blue screen will appear again. (with the same error msg)
what seems to be the problem and how can i solve this?

I have a dell inspiron 9000 and i just bought call of duty 4. the game's minimum video card requirement is a geforce 6600. I want to know if I'm capable of connecting this video card to my laptop so i can play this game. My laptop is in a different town right now so I'm not sure about the specs. So if anyone could tell me what it'll take to play this game on this laptop, i would be very grateful.

I am thinking about buying this laptop...

I need a laptop that will surf the internet, can hook up to a printer, and that has a built in wireless card, since my building that I live in provides free wireless for the residents.

Could you take a look at the ad/link and advise me? THanks.

I have a 3 year old Dell Inspiron 6000 notebook computer with a beautiful 15.4" WUXGA screen (1920x1200 resolution ). The computer itself is getting rather old and slow so I'm looking for a new machine.

The problem is, I can't seem too find any new notebook computers that have such good resolution at a 15.4" screen. I don't want to bump up to a 17" screen because those computers get to big to move around! I've looked at Dell, Lenovo, and Sony so far, and all of their 15.4" screens seem to top out at 1680x1050 resolution - and even this resolution is uncommonly high and expensive.

I find it so strange that 3 years after I bought this one, I can't find a screen with as good resolution as my current one! Aren't computers supposed to improve fast? Am I looking in the wrong place?

Thanks!

Are they for specific jobs? Or just a cheaper version of a regular laptop?

I have my laptop connected to my TV through an S-Video cable and I can see the picture, but the audio is still playing on my laptop speakers and not my TV. I thought this cable was capable of transmitting video as well as audio through one cable? If this is true can someone help me configure my Dell Inspiron 1420 to output audio/video?
