Hello, I have a microphone for my computer. Lately I have been seeing on craig's list jobs for voiceovers and wanted to make a few short examples of me saying stuff to send in as ghetto demo's. I was wondering what program I would use and how I record what I'm saying? ALso, please recommend a program I would already have on my computer or a free download as I'm not seroius enough about this to go out and buy a program.

It is a hewlett packard with windows 98. It runs and works well last time I used it (but this was a couple years ago, I have to turn it on and see how it is I guess) but I don't know where any of the cds are, but it has all the cables and stuff. And I have a printer too that I'm going to sell it with I think. What do you think is a good decent price? 50? 30? 25?

i get the error "i need permission to access this file" under vista ultimate edition when trying to copy and paste a file to my external usb hard drive which is situated on another machine on the network. I am on a domain and log into my pc using the administrator account. The permissions are set for full access for that account and the administrator account (me) is the owner of both the file I want to copy and the external disk drive destination folder, and infact everything on that drive. Any suggestions?

This stinks, and Im sure there have been a number of questions like this. I got this desknote no name laptop from a freind of my ex, I dont have any windows disks or resotre disks or anything.

i updated pc tools antivirus and a bad file kept crashing my computer, so the folks at pctools.com told me to remove the program alltogether. so I did. and now when i turn on my computer it goes through the memory check and the select operating system screens but after that it just goes black. wen i select safe mode i get a huge list of files, but nothing else happens, it just shuts off. and any other option doesnt do anything.

i really need immediate help, and not any simpleton stuff as ive most likely tried it. i am very broke and cant afford to buy a disk or get it fixed otherwise id save myself the trouble of trying to figure this out.

please please please please help me! im begging you. my laptop is my main resource for EVERYTHING and i need it to work.

When I used to live in Minnesota, my internet was perfect and never had any problems. Now I live in Texas, and my wireless/cable connection all too often stops functioning. I have tried multiple routers, and the result is always the same.

Any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

Is it possible to install Mac OS X Server on an external USB drive that is connected to an AirPort Extreme base station. I would like to allow all the computers in my house to be able to netboot from that drive.

My problem: I have 6 point of sale terminals which have 32mb or 64mb compact flash cards for hard drives.

I am trying to replace these with 1GB cards. I did this for one machine a few months ago using the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool. However, when I'm trying to do it now I keep getting Non System disk errors.

Can anyone help - any alternatives would be appreciated.

FYI, I do have a compact flash reader that plugs into my XP computer.

I recently bought a Dell Inspiron 1721 Laptop. It came in the post pretty much all ready to go, but I can't find any literature with it explaining how I go about using this thing when I'm not plugged in on my cable connection at home. I never owned a laptop before, and obviously I don't know much at all about computers, so I am baffeled on how a laptop works when I take it out of the house. Are there certain cards or devices I need to plug in here somewhere when let's say I want to take it with me to a library? If somebody could walk me through this basic stuff about laptops, I'd really appreciate your help. I need a basic Laptop 101 lecture, if you will. By the way, is there a difference between a laptop and a notebook? And what is Wi-Fi?

I've got a limit of 5GB incoming traffic and 2GB outgoing traffic per week. I'm also worried about downloads, but I'm not talking about P2P, I torrent. They do say, however, that they don't monitor the CONTENT of the traffic, just the amount. So I'm wondering - am I screwed if I spend 2-3+ hours a day browsing the internet and most importantly.. gaming? Are they telling me I can't play WoW because the amount of data coming in and out mirrors that of a student downloading album after album from Limewire? Could anyone clear this up? Am I just intrepreting this the wrong way? I also don't want to call the desk because the last thing I want to do is raise a red flag and have the tech deparment red-flag me.

Your thoughts? Am I just being paranoid or is this something to worry about?

I was looking up the word "prevail" on an Internet dictionary site and decided it would be nice to have easy access to this dictionary/Thesaurus, so I bookmarked it. The problem is that I bookmarked the definition of "prevail" and not the site itself. Everytime I try to delete this entry, and click the part were it asks if I'm sure I want to delete this source, I get a pop-up stating that the attempt to delete this particular bookmark has failed. It's so frustrating.

I've experimented and tried to delete other bookmarks, including this same dictionary site minus the word "prevail" and it is accomplished successfully. It's really starting to irk me. What on earth can I do to delete this bookmark [prevail-Synonyms from Thesaurus.com] that I mistakenly added?

I can't believe I'm asking this because it seems like such an easy question. I can't get my homepage changes to save in IE7. I have gone to the Tools menu (at least three times), pasted the new website I wish to use (in the General tab), hit Apply and said OK. When I hit the home button (or even if I completely close the window and open a new one), I still get my old homepage. I even tried going to the website and then using the home icon to change it (on the actual browser window). Nothing is working. Please help.

P.S. I don't have any reason to believe it's a virus - the old homepage is my alma mater and I want to change it to weather underground.

Thanks!
