    Basic Laptop/Notebook - Still Stuck, Need More Suggestions

    Well, it seems that my search for a cheaper (as in price) basic laptop or notebook has become an exercise in frustration. I'm looking for something reliable but basic, with XP installed on it, enough RAM that it runs smoothly (just generally; no heavy progs), doesn't need a huge drive...

    ASUS Eee PC 4G: Questions

    Ok, I'll try to make this simple: It's the perfect size laptop I'm looking for just to do very basic things with. However, I need to do two things with it: - install XP Pro - upgrade the RAM I've never worked on laptops before, so I've no idea how to even find out what RAM to get...

    Calender/Task Program...?

    Is there a program similar to Rainlendar but that's a bit better, with more functionality and customization? I run XP Pro and always have a ton of stuff to do, and I'm currently buried in sticky notes! :D It'd be more convenient to have an on-screen and light-weight prog on my system, but...

    Need Laptop Suggestion

    I just need a small and cheap (as in price) laptop that I can use for very basic stuff: email and random surfing, so I don't have to have my gaming rig(s) on all the time and be sitting at my desk. Something that I can install XP Pro SP2 on w/o a problem, and that can just be plugged in if...

    .NET Framework Questions (Need Help/Info)

    I have a few questions about the .NET Framework I could use some help with: 1) What software apps/hardware requires it? I know ATi's GPUs (which I run on different systems) require it (at least for the CP to work correctly), but don't know if any games etc. require it as well. 2) Which...

    Ad-Aware problems/weirdness...? Prog or system?

    Twice today it's happened already: loaded up Ad-Aware, and got a pop-up message saying my database was 730,486 days old! That's 2,001 years! Heh. Hence, check for downloads, but of course I'm up to date. Is there something up with Ad-Aware? Or has my system been compromised in some way I...

    Sign of Dying LCD (Odd/Frustrating Situation; & Avoid Chemei)

    Here's a "heads-up" for anyone that hasn't experienced this problem, in case they ever do, as it drove me nuts. Has anyone ever had this happen? Apparently, when a widescreen (or maybe any LCD, though I've never seen nor hear of this) is about to die, one sign can be a sudden change in your...

    Frontlines: Fuel of War - Any Updates?

    Just posted something about it in another thread, and got me to thinking about it again since the beta I played recently. Any new updates to the beta that show this promising title really coming into it's own? As posted... I tried out the beta a couple of weeks ago, and despite it still...
