    My bios doesn't show. What could it be? Ram, videocard, or cpu? How do I fix this?

    Edit: Forget it, I fixed it through sheer luck and I'm posting from the computer right now. Now I can see why hardware guys are so angry and mean all the time, it's impossible to get help. Delete this thread please.

    Does Windows have anything that can manage webmail?

    Free Yahoo! mail does not give you many automated ways of managing your email to reduce spam. Furthermore, the methods that it does give you work for incoming mail only. Most of the email clients are for POP3 and IMAP4. I want to do things like compile a blacklist and a whitelist based on...

    I just want to program on my home computer...

    Forgive me, but this is a strange situation and it needs a strange solution. I want to be able to connect to a server that can communicate with my home computer so I can give commands when I'm not at home, and practice programming. I only need text/command-line capabilities, no GUI necessary...

    How can I possibly make an image backup of Vista? On DVD.

    If only had more than 2 computers. These companies suck for trying to lock people into one OS. The Gateway site did have all the drivers for my computer. Downloading them right now. Having a perfect factory install is not as important as having the drivers. Still, it looks like I'm going...

    How can I possibly make an image backup of Vista? On DVD.

    Gateway Laptop, comes with Vista Home Premium on [ Drive C: ] and has a recovery partition on [ Drive D: ] . I want the freedom to completely remove all of this when I want to, and restore it if I need to. The problem is, I've never dealt with laptops before. :( I don't know what I risk...

    Question about hidden partitions

    http://www.acronis.com/glossary/partitioning/hidden-partition Can hidden partitions interact with OS's? Can they monitor your computer in secret and do things based on the information they find? Let's say I put a hidden partition on the drive that can't be erased by regular re-formatting...

    I don't know if I should just get a re-furbished macbook. :confused: This really isn't the time for me to settle into a new OS, I need to be as productive as possible.

    $1000 dollars is the limit. Tax-included. Doesn't matter HOW appealing it looks for a few hundred dollars more, please keep it less than $1000. Tell me what's good and bad for this price (example: "1GB is a given at the ~1000 mark, if you don't get that, move on", "don't pay more than $x for a...

    What's a good program for recursively managing duplicates?

    If I have a huge folder named "Folder" with multiple duplicate files (within the main folder and in sub-directories) and I want to make a new copy of "Folder" without any duplicates whatsoever, how can I do it? The only reason I need a program for it is because there is no way I can keep...

    In desperate need of a universal file archiver

    Since they only stored the modified date, I had to preserve the created date as well so I figured I would just type this into cmd: dir /a/s/t:c > Information.txt To print the Date Created for all the files, and then I'd just archive all the files and put 'information.txt' into that same...
