my computer is a piece of crap and has a really small amount of space on it. to make more space i was going through and deleting old stuff like music files, programs and pictures. it doesn't seem to do much good. it looks like alot of my stuff is saved to more than one place so deleting it once doesn't do much good. so is the stuff just forever going to take up space on my harddrive?

How good is the quality for a 1080P plasma screen hooked up to a computer as a monitor? Since the price is so much cheaper than an LCD, I was wondering if it would make a big difference in clarity. I want to be able to read the print clearly.

Im writing a batch file where the user enters the name of his or here document and the program moves the document to a specific folder.
Here is a sample
set /p Name1=What is the name of your first .doc file?
move %Name1%.doc a
echo %Name1% has been moved into new folder

How do you add a catch so that if the user misspells
it prompts the user again for the name of the file?

I have a Dell Inspiron notebook running Windows XP Professional. I don't know whether I'm missing out on a better computer experience, or missing a lot of problems, by not upgrading. What do you think? Also, have people used the upgrade package, or is it better to just "start from scratch" with Vista and install the full program without upgrading?

Any thoughts would be welcome. Thanks!

i wonder if anybody else is of the same opinion ,i asked a question the other day ?thank,s for the answer ,but this is the pits ,been on technical support phone for the last 90 minutes and as i type still on hold hardly got a broadband connection ,NTL lied to us about the switch over ,it,s about time that we took some action
against the entrapment used by these companies when you try to cancel or switch ,they promise to upgrade your service and after you have been tricked into a new contract ? you then find that it was a bared faced LIE ? still on hold by the way .

It is a comon problem for a lot of people. Getting into a chat just to find out that the person you are chatting with is a total fake. That is the nature of the net. I t can be really frustrating to say the least and if you are not careful, it can be out right dangerous!

One result now is that nobody really trusts tat the person they are chatting with is real!

If there is enough interest, I will attempt to provide a place for people who have verified to me that they are real to find others who have done the same. In fact, I have made a small start on this in my forums but I really don't know if there is enough interest to continue the project.

My IP address was changed the other day to something weird after I fixed my internet. I now want to change my IP address again because my brother uses a laptop which gets internet from my wireless LINKSYS router. He said that his IP addess has been banned from a game and has no clue why? ("I think he cheats...lol") I suck at using computers and hate all computer terminology. Can someone please give me a way that I can change my IP without damaging my internet. I suck at using computers so if it gets damaged, it will take me forever to fix. Thank you! :)
Info you might need: i have windows XP and LINKSYS wireless-G 2.4 GHz---and Mozilla Firefox

Please dont use words like port forwarding and ipconfig

Details to know:

I have an Acer TravelMate C300, and have had it for more than 2 years now. This is the only computer I have so I do everything with it, including games and downloading. As time went by the laptop has just been getting slower and slower and now has reached an annoying level. It takes at least 6 minutes for the strat-up and 2 just to open up IE. Not to mention all the other programs that are slow as hell.
I've run the disk clean-up, done the disk fragmenting, run a program called "regcleaner" (which is supposed to get rid of all the registry keys that are useless) and have been running "Pc Booster" but all with no huge improvement.
Other things to know are that I have a 512 RAM and Norton as an antivirus.

Please help me out because I can't take this slowness anymore, I've tried everything I can think of!!!

"Snail-mail" as it's called is giving way to email, so who's to say that our precious books will become "e-books" or whatever. It's already being done, some text books are online now! I mean, I love holding a book and turing the pages and falling asleep with it in my arms. Will the kids who are preeteens now have thier children reading computer books?

Also, handwriting might be gone as well. We can take tests on computers and do classes on computers so it seems that it's coming. In 20 years or less e-paper will cost LESS than real paper. Yes it's saving trees, but we are becoming lazy fast and I think we need to just slow down on technology. Please post your responses and comments on this subject and I would apriciate it dearly.

Today I have being trying to download some pics from my daughters phone via the smart stick. I clicked explore but now there are only four drives A,to E. Where have they gone and how do I get them back?
I have tried the system restore but it has turned off and won't turn back on - it just tells me to restart the computer which I have already done. Please help.

I have received my invoice that I must print and send with my payment in my yahoo mail, I open it and tell it to print but it won't print anything but the header on the ad. I can't copy and paste because of the way the invoice is designed with graphics and all, any suggestions ? Oh my, old age/old brain.

Can anyone let me know what is the best DVD-R recordable media available, for recording on Laptop and DVD player. I have been using Datawrite for about 12months but the last batch I had was awful, almost a quarter of them were faulty discs.
