How about ultra-seasoned, decades experienced Police Chiefs depending on the non-medical criminal investigative abilities of a doctor or Novel writer? You can tell when they are running out of storylines when one cop's girlfriend is mysteriously shot dead leading to an emotional traipse through the investigation to find the killer, …

I'm in my 50's and my IT credentials have lapsed. Pre-cancer I was a consultant in software licensing, but my background is more dominantly hardware and developing. I am self-taught in a couple of old irrelevant-to-today languages, and hold a certification for VB6. Hardware I'm certified A+ and some Toshiba …

In The Heat of The Night - Sidney Poitier is a brilliant actor, and it's a great story. I'm really big on Sci-Fi - just for the escapism. I-Robot, Men In Black, Logan's Run. . . I could makequite in list of favourites, but it must have a good story. …

It would be a good idea to start a new thread because this one is over 7 years old and the majority of people probably won't pay any attention to it. To answer your question with the limited information you have given us, if you have a critical battery message …

Just a small note about laptops. Using them an your lap is often quite bad for laptops, as well as most fabric or similar soft type surfaces that could obstruct ventilation. Also, many laptops are not best suited to 'heavy' gaming because of the simple cooling system they have. As …

Con you put a link in your next post that tells us more about your Tek 6633 All-In-One PC, please? Which operating system? Do you make regular back-ups, would it be a problem to lose the data on the hard disk if it was absolutely necessary?

For a number of years I lived in Australia. The nearest neighbour was twenty or thirty miles away. We tackled problems with Hornets, various poisonous spiders, and venomous snakes, etc. All of that came with the territory. A great many people share their environment with Lions, Tigers, or Bears. As …

Is your computer definitely a HP 7600 or could it be a D7600, even a DC7600? This would matter significantly when it comes to drivers. Run a Windows Update, or check if Windows is waiting for you to give the go-ahead to install updates. Sometimes Windows fixes this issue "itself". …

When you fitted the motherboard into the new case, did you use those little paper washers with the motherboard screws? When you use the computer, is the computer's case closed fully? All of the cables to your TV are seated properly? Either or both these scenarios (no paper washers, opened …

They are great questions! I could give you a brief answer file system by file system here, but you would gain only as much as I want to write. Telling you how to find the answers to your questions would lead you to the richest answers, answers that would best …

The arrangement of the partitions is okay. The 'Recovery' partition is for reinstalling Windows, restoring it back to Manufacturer defaults. Don't let anything happen to that partition, and don't use it to restore Windows until you are happy this problem is fixed and you have your files. It's sometimes best …

The link below is to the Extreme PSU Calculator. With this you can give either a specific or general run down on what you have in the box, it then does a bit of jiggery-pokery and gives you some helpful guidance as to a suitable PSU wattage.

UK TV service is now entirely digital having now switched off all remaining analogue services. As a marked advancement, it sadly also closes a chapter on the BBC's Ceefax service, established C. 1974. This service provided Text News, Weather reports + map, sport results, recipes, quizzes, and more. On a …

To the great majority of end-users, or home-users, there really is not a lot of differences between them, or at least justifiable differences. For a lot of people out there it was also free, as a result of piracy. The arrival of XP also caused, or coincided, with a PC …

It may also be a software issue. Do you know how to find your way around Control Panel? It may be worth looking at your regional settings and keyboard settings. Which operating system are you using?

We don't know what make or model your Computer is, but there may be something available from the manufacturer, or available for a like model laptop. Alternatively, you could purchase a standard backlit keyboard that is typically used with desktop computers. You would just plug it into a spare USB …

The security updates didn't make that much of a difference to the general user really. The great thing about XP was that after its teething problems, which was commonly due to badly written drivers on the part of Vendors, it became an operating system that people learned how to fix …

Kinda difficult to answer that in the UK here. I asked a Polish friend who had recently moved here what the weather was typically like in Poland. He said, "We get four seasons..... a year..." It's very changeable.

What is the make & model of the Netbook? Have you made any changes to it recently, hardware or software? What happens if you start it with no devices attached to it? No optical drive, no mouse, no printer, etc, only the power cable. If that makes no difference can …
