I know this might be a stupid question but the reason I'm asking is because I desperately need to download music and movies and burn them to a cd or dvd and I don't want to waste my money.

In general, what are useful questions to ask so we cover our bases when moving our software from one server to another?

Thanks.

When I turn on my PC, I get an error message that says that my primary drive (hard disk drive) is not found. Below that, it says to press F1 to continue or F2 to run the setup utility. I'm confused about all this and don't know what to do. Hopefully, somebody can help me out.

Ive had trouble with a non-blue tooth keyboard and mouse. Cant get more than 6 feet away before it looses connection. Ive heard that cordless phones can cause interference and that the blue tooth technology filters out other signals better. Is this true?

I just learned the the bigger your RAM is the more programs you can have open at once. On my dell i have 256mb i bought it 2 years ago and I have noticed it has been slowing down reasonably lately. I don't do much on my pc, I like to have limewire, aim, ie and maybe another program. I like to play pc games as well, what should I upgrade my RAM to or are there any other sugestions? Thanks in advance

This is making me CrAzY! I'm sure it is so simple that I am making it hard. I already have DSL(3 yrs) through Centurytel w/Netopia modem they provided. Now I want to hook up 3 more computers(all XP) in my large home. My main computer w/DSL has no slot for ethernet so it is through the USB port. My dilemma is wireless or not. And what the heck is a HUB?? My home has a down stairs w/phone lines in all rooms(11). What is a complete list I will need to hook up all three to my DSL? 2 downstairs. I mean a list from the Ethernet adapter down to wiring, routers, modems, hookups, wall plug ins etc. Should it be wireless? My home is really big. I have asked Centurytel and they rattle off something that sounds like foreign language to me. I need this in plain dummy terms. The brand name and a list of all equipment I will need to purchase. 6 months I have been intimidated by this. I hope someone here will just lay it out plain and simple, I would appreciate this so much as well as my family.

i have a seagate 700 gig usb hard drive which has always been plugged into typical dell laptop running xp pro. the other day my nephew borrowed it to copy a bunch of mp3's. i thought it was going into his mom's pc. instead he plugged it into his mac. it didn't recognize it at all. now when i plug it back into my pc it shows like a new unformatted 700 gig drive. i ran partition magic 8.05 to see if i could restore the partition and i couldn't....BUT, it did show that the previous amout of disk space which was occupied by my data was still...."occupied" so i know it is not completely wiped out. Any ideas? I cannot believe i am the first person to plug a pc usb drive into a mac and lose every thing. Is there a trick, software package...anything...HELP!!!!!!!
