I'm currently in the market for a budget Tablet-PC hybrid for extra mobility and have a favorite selected: HP Pavilion 11t-n000 x360 PC (ENERGY STAR). This was chosen based on the preferences I've listed below.

Does anyone know if it would be possible to replace the HDD in this...
Problem
Recently I installed the solid-state Crucial M500 drive for my computer and reinstalled Windows 7. It is SO FAST and I love it! However, I cannot figure out how to get the encryption working.
Goal
Want to set up full disk encryption using this self-encrypting drive; want to require...
I'm trying to connect with a friend on Diablo II LOD using TCP/IP but we are unable to connect. We are not on the same home network.
* We have the same version of the game (the latest)
* We got our IPs from whatismyip.com
* Ports 4000 and 6112 TCP/UDP are open
* game.exe and DiabloII.exe...
I use "Safely Remove Hardware" so that I can power off my external hard drive. However, after the drive disappears from the list, if I don't turn the hard drive off within a few seconds, it re-mounts itself and appears back on the list.
Why does this happen? What can I do to prevent my...
I have a widescreen (1440x990) monitor and I want to run Starcraft in 800x600. Is there any way to do this?
When I run the game at 800x600 (its default and only setting) the screen stretches and "squashes" the images to compensate for the wide, short Widescreen setup. It's ugly and...
My SECOND SET of Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 speakers died on me (both after only 2 weeks of operation, how sad!), so I'm looking for something new and more reliable. I need something that has sound quality as good as Klipsch 2.1.
What are the best speakers in the $100-170 price range?
Is it safe to leave an external hard drive powered on for extended periods of time? Should I turn it off when I'm not using it or can it be left on all the time, like the computer?
Thanks
I'm using a laptop with an integrated (I think) sound card called Conexant AC-97 Audio. Would getting a sound card such as Audigy 2, for example, really make that much of a difference for the quality of sound output? Or do people get sound cards for different reasons?
I'm interested in purchasing Klipsch 2.1 speakers, such as those located here:

They only use one plug, which plugs directly into...
If ever I restart the computer or log off the user after adjusting my mouse speed or mouse settings, they revert back to how they were beforehand. I've tried clicking both "Apply" and "OK" and that hasn't done anything.
Anyone have a clue why this happens? It's very frustrating.
I'm considering buying a new video card for my computer (current graphics card is an ATI Radeon X700). I've heard that NVIDIA GeForce 6800s are good, reliable cards, and are now between $150-200 (my preferred price range).
I've seen a lot of different 6800 versions, though, including GS, XT...
Windows XP fails to boot, instead going to a blue screen that says,
"Stop: c0000218 {Registry File Failure} The registry cannot load the hive (file): \SystemRoot\System32\Config\SOFTWARE or its log or alternate"
I have put the Windows XP Pro SP2 CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive, booted from it...
I have a widescreen monitor, so running games at, say, 1024x768 causes everything to turn fat and short since the monitor stretches everything out to the width.
Does anyone know how I could play fullscreen games in windowed mode?
