Other - Hardware - June 2007

The card is a Nvidia GeForce4 440 Go 64M, I would really like to improve it because even though my laptop is 2 years old, still works great due to it's specifications, it has 100 Gigas HDD, AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3700+ and 2 Gigas RAM, so it would be perfect to get a better graphics card now. Any info is greatly appreciated! Thanks

My Mom happily bought a new cordless desktop keyboard with optical mouse (Logitech). We only use this computer for internet surfing, the digital camera and playing pinball or card games. In other words, not heavy usage. My sister says she should take it back, because wireless technology is crap (slow response) and is a security risk. She has never even used one. What is your experience with it?

I have no idea if I have a CD writer or DVD writer or if there is a difference. I have a Dell laptop and I thought that the manual said I could burn dvd's - this may be universal manual for many computers, though....I saw under a similar question that someone suggested looking under the control panel/system/hardware/device manager/DVD/CD Rom drives and seeing if it lists the different: cd-r, dvd-r, etc. My computer lists: TSST corp CDRW/DVD TSL462C. Any help would be appreciated. I have large amounts of pictures to backup and thought a dvd would hold all of them, as opposed to many different cd's. I purchased some DVD+R's, figuring I had a 50/50 chance of getting the right one and the computer said insert blank disc - I don't want to waste money on the DVD-R's if I can't write to any DVD's!

My hardrive is quickly filling up, so I was wondering, if my harddrive fills up, is there anyway i could store files online, but also open them and use them online in such a way that they don't fill up my hardrive?

I m a s/w engineer and to my knowledge I verified everything in the system and found that all the drivers of USB port are installed. I went into BIOS and found tat the poprts are enabled.
Whenever I plug any USB device there's a red-light blink for half sec. and then goes off and the drive remains undetected.
If anyone can answer then please I'll be glad......My system is "Compaq Presario SR1320IL", XP Proff wit SP-2 installed.
If you require any further info. then please ask.....as I m frustrated as problem is not getting solved since 5 months.
If I go to HP's service center tey will charge a lot.
Thanks in advance,.............Plz answer............

Hi guys, i got a question about my motherboard, i dont know what kind of motherboard i am using, i know i have windows xp pro.
so i went to my device manager, and it didnt tell me the name of the motherboard, i also went to my system information, i dont think it said the nbame of the board, but it did recognize the system board, i know there is a name for my motherboard, and i forgot what it was, i wish i had that box, i was so stupid for throwing it away, tell me the steps to know what is the motherboard, and also i noticed that in my device manager.
it found that there was an X to where its saying that its missing some kinf of a NIC card from realtek, i dont think its a software, i need to buy the hardware, show me where to find that at FRYS electronics,

It's coming from my tower and it sounds like its uploading something (when I haven't even put anything in the hard drive or anything) and sometimes it gets really loud, like a fibration noise. It mostly does it when I kinda bang on my desk or set something hard down on my computer desk on accident. But just 10 minutes ago, it appered out of no where and the loudest and longest its ever been. And it also does it when I restart my computer but usually goes away.
It started doing this about 3 months ago...

What is wrong and what should I do?
