Q: How do i hook up my laptop computer to my new tv, i have a compaq presario v5000 and a Regza Toshiba HD television it looks like a usb cord plugs into the back of the tv anybody know what kind of hookups i would use for this?

A: Sounds like you're looking at an HDMI port. They're very similar in size and shape to a USB port.

If your laptop has an s-video port, and your TV does, too, that's probably your only way to connect the two.

How can I get my friends new laptop computer to work?

me and my friend have been trying to get her new laptop computer to work. when we connect it to the DSL modem it says its connected to a local network from Home but when we open up an internet explorer browsing window it reads: "you are not connected to the internet'. Can anyone help us...


Most times you will have to install the DSL software and have this be the second NOT the main computer when you are asked during the setup.

New laptop owner! My usb flash drive won't work! Frustrated please ...

Perhaps you should do some homework, and take a course on basic PC use. This way, when it happens again, because it will, you will be armed with the tools that you need to deal with the problem yourself.

A good starting point would be the “For Dummies” line of books. Don’t be turned off by the title, they have many informative books on all sorts of topics.

Unfortunately, without someone actually seeing your PC, they will not be able to help you.

You are going to need patience, and the willingness to learn about such things, if you want to have a good experience with them.

It’s not like on TV where things just magically work. They are trying to sell you something, and have everything configured so that it looks this way. In the REAL world, those of us who have acquired our knowledge of computers have read many boring manuals, and we still have problems.

And though manuals are better written, they are very hard to write so that ANYONE can understand them. Just ask my friend, the documentation specialist, Euripides Upmann.

You need to read some books and manuals, and maybe even take a course. Otherwise your laptop will be a living hell for you.

That sounds like any computer from the past ten or so years. Any way was this a used lap top? Sounds like a messed up drive maybe. When you go to my computer what drives does it list? When I put my thumb drive in any computer it open in the task thing at the bottom by the clock and all I have to do is hit explore and pow it opens. However with that any computer I plug into must have the abilty to open the files. If the software or drivers don’t exist it will not work.

The Apple iPad: First Impressions New York Times

Now Phase 2 can begin: the bashing by the bloggers who've never even tried it: "No physical keyboard!" "No removable battery!" "Way too expensive!" "Doesn't multitask!" "No memory-card slot!"

That will last until the iPad actually goes on sale in April. Then, if history is any guide, Phase 3 will begin: positive reviews, people lining up to buy the thing, and the mysterious disappearance of the basher-bloggers.

The iPad is, as predicted, essentially a giant iPod Touch: aluminum-backed, half-inch thin, with a 10-inch screen surrounded by a shiny black border. At the bottom, there's the standard iPod/iPhone connector and a single Home button. It will be available in models ranging from $499 (16 gigs of memory, Wi-Fi) to $830 (64 gigs of memory, Wi-Fi and 3G cellular).

The cellular signal will be provided by AT&T for $15 a month (250 megabytes of data transferred -- think e-mail only) or $30 a month, unlimited. Amazingly, those AT&T deals involve no contract. You can cancel whenever you like. And since this thing isn't a phone, you don't have to worry about dropped calls; you're paying exclusively for Internet service.

Something Old and Something New

I am buying a new laptop/notebook computer and want to give my current one to my son. I want to take everything off of my current notebook and transfer it to my new notebook (haven't bought yet), can this be done? If so, what's the best way to do it, and will I need to re-install windows...


Use nero to make pc back up,then burn it to disk,you'll need nero on your new pc also to install all programs,there are many other programs that will do the same thing, i found this to be the least expensive.
