    Help me understand Macbook purchasing...

    I bought the wife a MacBook Pro 13" on cyber Monday and we have both been enjoying it so far. This is the first apple computer I've had. I do plan to update the memory and harddrive, but while doing the research I found out that this laptop is a mid 2012 model. Looking a little further into...

    My harddrive is full

    I finally filled up my 60Gb 10Krpm OS harddrive, not bad for 4 years. Granted I've got a 500Gb secondary hd. Looks like it's time to upgrade to SSD. However, I'm a little out of the loop. I've seen some recommendations on the board and they all seem to be SATA III. My mobo is a GIGABYTE...

    Installing Win7 on a netbook...?

    Does Windows basically copy/paste over to a USB just fine then? I forgot about the memory issue, I'll have to check it out.

    Installing Win7 on a netbook...?

    My father is running an older version of windows that was preinstalled on his netbook. He is looking to upgrade to Win7 but I'm wondering how to do this. His netbook does not have an optical drive. My guess is that I could install an upgrade copy online but will that wipe all data or just copy...

    Need Excel Help...I'm out of ideas

    I can open the original spreadsheet. The problem is that I cannot edit / add fields. Nobody knows the password so we can't unlock it to make changes. The smaller spreadsheet that I just typed up causes the same VALUE error. P.S. I tried doing a screenshot of the spreadsheet but we've just...

    Need Excel Help...I'm out of ideas

    So I'm working on a complex excel form for work but have run into a snafu. Our current sheet is vastly out of date and needs alot of corrections / additions. So I'm taking it upon myself to correct this. One problem is that the sheet is password protected and nobody knows the password. So I...

    PC locking up with black screen after Win7 install...?

    I haven't overclocked anything. The power supply should be more than enough for my system. However, I'll try disabling the hibernate.

    PC locking up with black screen after Win7 install...?

    Installed Windows 7 several months back. Been running like a champ and loving it. Recently I've been having issues that I'm not sure of. The system will go into hibernate and when I go to bring it back up, the computer comes back online but the screen will stay black and the mouse does not light...

    How do you get camcorder video onto the computer...?

    To be more specific, I have a Sony DCR-TRV120 that I used years ago and recently found it along with several Hi8 tapes. The camcorder has a usb plug so I'm hoping that'll help make things a little easier. I am running Windows 7 System Builder Premium. Since I don't even have a VHS player in the...

    New Super Mario Bros Wii

    If you're pretty good at the Mario games and dedicate a full day to it, you can finish the game. I spent a couple hrs over 3 days and beat it. I still find it fun so I'll keep replaying for a while.

    New Super Mario Bros Wii

    I believe you're talking about Bowzer Jr. It took me a second to figure it out as well. You'll notice that the bombs he drops eventually explode and cause the floor to make a wave effect. All you have to do is: when the bomb starts turning red and is about to explode, jump in the air near it...

    Are SSD still too buggy/faulty to invest in?

    I'm dying to replace my drive with a x-25 but there are threads constantly about users drives crapping out or not working correctly. Is it still too early in the game?
