Few days back, I bought 1 GB iBall Pen Drive. After that I made two partitions and given a password to teh protected area. By mistake, I have executed Windows FORMAT command in the public area of pen drive. Now when I try to execute Format.exe (i.e. file provided by iball CD), it says "Flash Disk Not Inserted", whereas the flash disk is plugged in. I would like to format the pen drive and get back 1 GB of storage area. Please help.

one of my hard drive is Maxtor 500G on the Raid SATA card and the other one is IDE Maxtor 80G.

I want to copy AVI movies from 80g one to 500g one, every files which are smaller than somewhat 7 - 8 G are copied perfectly, however files are bigger than that particular size can't go thru.

WinXP gave a message that says "there is not enough space on drive J:, please clean up ..."

Does anyone know the solution for this? Thank you.

I know there are adapters to put a laptop cd drive in a desktop, but what about the other way around? Is there an adapter that will let me hook a desktop Cd player to a laptop? Basically, I need to install windows on my laptop which has allready been formatted and has no OS., and my cd drive is not working for some reason. Unless there is another way I can do it, like can I boot from a USB drive? OR.....is there a way to hook a laptop hard drive up to a desktop PC, so I can install windows on it that way??

At first I thought it was a overheating issue with the CPU or something, so I checked it -- it's fine, 40c. However, lately when someone sends me a message on MSN or AIM while the screensaver is on my computer randomly goes BEEP. It's annoying because I really thought it was an overheating CPU or something.

I have Windows Vista installed.

1st. I don't know how it happened but a while back my p.c. was infected with adware pop-ups. I have tried to get rid of it and nothing has worked. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it?

2nd. This computer is an old computer, I have a new cd-rom and cd-rw in it. I was wondering, can I add a new motherboard into the old pc tower, or would I have to buy a new tower?

3rd. Lastly, if I am able to update the old tower with a new motherboard, would updating the motherboard, hard-drive, and memory take away the adware?


Thank you in advance.

Hi guys. I have a Gateway 550GR Desktop, (detailed specs here: http://support.gateway.com/s/PC/R/3725/3725sp3.shtml) and soon I'll be maxing out the RAM/getting a new videa card and getting myself a copy of Vista. I'm wondering if the integrated sound and network interface card will work with Vista? Or, if the Windows XP drivers I have for them will work on Vista. Your input is greatly appreciated.
