    upcoming sales

    I think your best bet is to contact the company or whatever it is. You should also rename your thread something more accurate, such as "Anyone used/been to Platt Tech, Milford CT" as your title doesn't really reflect your subject. It suggests information/questions about a sale about to start...

    Active Battery Backup

    AC Input is the mains surely?? The thing that the arrow is pointing to in the second picture is just the fuse. I guess that you need to buy another cable to connect your monitor up as well. But itsn't the whole idea of the USB connection that if the power fails then the battery tells your...

    Samsung NC20 will it run photoshop cs3/4

    If your going to be doing a lot of photoshop then I would advice you to invest in an LCD screen. You can always leave that at the place where you use it the most and then you have a large screen and still the portability. You can get a reasonable screen for under £100 nowdays. It will do it...

    Samsung NC20 will it run photoshop cs3/4

    You need to post some links or specs really, but this is what I run CS3 on: 1.6Ghz Centrino dual core 2GB RAM Integrated graphics (Intel 945GM) - not that this matters with photoshop. 15.4" widescreen The only thing that I find an issue is the screen size, although I don't use it too...

    Dell Motherboard (Stupid Question!)

    Had a quick look in my motherboard manual and theres no connector like that. It might be a header for another in/ou connector as it is right next to the I/O panel. Especially with that short lead. If I were you I would look at some random motherboard manuals from around the same time and see...

    Nero movie burning

    You can use Nero to convert. I have Nero 7 and use it like this: Here are two pics, a mini walk through if you will. On the same tab bar as Extras go to the film looking logo, and click make a DVD there. Then you just have to add .mpeg .avi or whatever and it will convert/make menus/burn...

    Record VHS to DVD -- Help please!!

    To help sum up quickly; If you link the VCR to a DVD recorder you will get exactly the same as on the VHS. Eg, very basic menus etc. If you use Nero, which you have, and digitalise the video, you will be able to create fancy menus, edit the videos if you want, put backing tracks on...

    illegeal downloading laws?

    No, because if you take photo's you own the copyright so you can do whatever you want with them. Same as movies you make, music you have created etc. Doug.

    Do most PCs come with a network card installed?

    Most mobo's come with a ethernet port integrated, but very few wireless. So I expect you can attach your computer the ethernet (plug looks a little like a phone one), but not with wireless. You can buy USB / PCI wireless cards quite cheaply if you want wireless. If your computer is near...

    HiJackThis & Malaware Log

    Hi, last night I was on eBay and all of the sudden my Internet Explorer window changed to "about:blank" (like if you open a new tab). Then another window opened on my homepage, navigated itself to eBay and then on to My eBay. What caused this? As soon as I noticed this happening I turned off...

    Setting up wireless on Linux

    My Laptop wouldn't connect out the box (and then I gave up) - same situation as you have described in your post. My PC does. I have an Edimax wireless card in it. Cheapest one I could find on the net that was on the approved list. £11.99 @ play.com. Has good range too. I use Ubuntu. Hope...

    What will you do when Google drives past your house?

    They've got my house, in York. And to be honest I really don't care. You cannot see anything you wouldn't if you walked past! I don't know what all the fuss is about. I am currently in the process of moving house, and when we were looking for a new house it was quite useful. Doug.

    changing background (continuously)

    Yeah, I used to have something like that. I think it was called 'Wallmaster'. You can either change the wallpaper every 5 mins etc., or it will change everytime at startup. I had this for XP, but I got rid as it was just another thing slowing down my (already slow) boot times! Hope that...

    So Hot!!!

    Is that core temperature...? If so, my laptop has always peaked at those core temperatures when under heavy use (and its fine!). Hope that helps, Doug.
