My uncle's computer keeps losing connection to the internet. To fix it I have to keep going to local area connection and then select repair. After doing that the connection is fine again, but I have to do this every time the computer has been turned back on again. It just started happening last...

Never mind; problem fixed. I just put the winxp cd back in and set it to repair. There was another option for recovery but unfortunately I forgot the administrator password. What is the difference between recovery and repair anyways?

So I tried to update my dads winXP with SP2 tonite. When SP2 was installing it said that it ran out of space on the harddrive so I cancelled installation. Now when I try starting the computer the winxp splash screen comes up but then the computer restarts back up. It keeps doing that. It never...

Would a SATA hard drive be beneficial in his case?

How upgradeable are the Dells? He usually keeps his computers for 5 years. I think his current computer is 1.4 Ghz with only 256 mb RAM. I think it uses Rambus type memory though. Could he maybe upgrade this instead or would a new computer be more beneficial? Thanks for all the suggestions!

Thanks, he was going to buy a G5 until he saw the prices. About the video card, what would be the lowest one he could get?

My friend is interested in buying a pre-built computer. Might order it from mwave,monarch, or pc club. He is a photographer so his main application will be Photoshop. His budget is around $1000. He doesn't need a monitor,speakers,or the mouse or keyboard. Not interested in overclocking. Which...

What quarter did they air the War of the Worlds teaser. I seemed to have missed it too.

Thanks! Needed something like this a couple months ago.

I also had that problem. This site gave me some suggestions: http://www.michna.com/kb/WxCannotDelete.htm

Thanks! It actually works.

Thanks Scott! WinXP it is then.

Is it better to install WinXP Pro or Win2k on a 533MHz computer? I think MS website says 233MHz min. for XP but I am still unsure.

So that's where I heard the song before.

I watched a show called Now and Again that ended on a cliffhanger but wasn't picked up for renewal.

I bought mine at Best Buy and it came with the ticket but I accidently bought the full-screen edition. I went to go exchange it and Best Buy says they don't even carry the widescreen edition.:angry:

Kage no Gundan or in the US it was called Shadow Warriors. I used to watch it all the time in the 80's. It starred Sonny Chiba as Hanzo. Also a show called Combat! that starred Vic Morrow. [Edit] Just did a search and Combat! is being released on DVD next month. Cool!

It was the component cable I bought from Target that was defective. It seemed to work at first when connected directly to the TV but then after awhile the screen would go a yellowish green again and then back to normal. I replaced it with an RCA brand component cable from Home Depot and...

I just got my receiver (HK 230) and I tried connecting the component cable from my DVD player to the receiver and then another set of component cable from the receiver to the TV. When I watched a movie it had a greenish tint to it. It seemed like the reds were not coming through. I...

Which models are $14.95. Is it the 33-2050 (old sku#) or the 33-4050 (new sku#)?

My Sears was clueless as to what's going on. They couldn't even give me the price of the 5660. Do you know what the price might be of a new unit or are they only selling open box?

Thanks for the info. Interesting story LanceJ. My mom was just thinking about giving it to the salvation army. Hmmm, converting it into a mini bar sounds good though.:D

My mom is thinking of getting rid of her old 1966 Magnavox record player. It has speakers and a radio player attached. This thing is huge. It is 6 feet long and weighs a ton! The turntable doesn't seem to work anymore but the radio and speaker still do. Is this thing worth anything?

I read that it was discontinued on the AVS forum.

That's one mighty stinger!

Was Frodo wearing his Mithril when he got stung by Shelob? Does Mithril not stop her sting? I loved the lighting of the beacons scene but what a crappy job having to sit on top of those mountains all day just waiting for them to be lit.
