5755.	Solve : Need help buying a laptop?
Answer» I am looking at getting a new laptop. Acer, Asus, or Fujitsu. 1. I want to spend around $2000. 2. Something with a weight around 4-5lbs, not over 5lbs tho. 3. I want a dedicated video card. I do a lot of Autocad work. 4. 1-2gigs of ram 5. 80-100GB HDD. 6. 13.5 - 14 inch screen, or LARGER if the weight will be low. 7. good warranty coverage. 8. Preferably Intel. Thanks.have you tried going to those companies and seeing what they offer?? unlovedwarriorI have but there is so much to pick from I dont know what to buy. When the site says this "Video:Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 Dynamic Video Memory" That isnt a intergrated video card is it? How do the integrated cards work, do they all steal memory from the computer, or does it have its own? How can I tell if it has its own memory Thanksunless they give you the option to pick a differnet vid card then its intergated. http://computer.howstuffworks.com/graphics-card.htm maybe this will help. but intergraded vids are on the motherboard and im not sure if they use the system memory or not.I think an Alien-ware would suit your needs. They are HIGHER technology LAPTOPS, but very expensive. (Still available for under $2000) These are gaming laptops, (and PC's) and should be able to handle what you want it to. I'll find the address for their site... http://www.alienware.com/ Theres quite a few. You may be able to find one without the "Alien" type style, you should be able to find a normal skin for it. BTW: Intel Integrated Graphics cards are the worst! I doubt Alien-ware has them, but watch out for other laptop MANUFACTURERS!Also Autocad has some very extensive and informative Forums as well...maybe a post there for suggestions might get some good ideas goin. My architect buddy bought a vid card 2 years ago because he does a ton of ACad work. That vidcard even 2 years old still smokes some of the BEST gamer cards out there.

5756.	Solve : Can't connect to company intranet?
Answer» Hello, I hope someone can help me. I have a LAPTOP. It is HP COMPAQ NX7010. Microsoft Windows XP Pro, Service Pack 2, Intel Pentium M Processor 1700MHz 592MHz, 512 MB of RAM, 55.8GB HD. I work at differant locations throughout the city and I use my laptop at each location. I can connect to the internet wirelessly everywhere I go without any problems. I can also connect to our company intranet at any of the various locations I work from. The other day I went to my homeoffice to do some work and tried to open the company intranet just as I had earlier in the day from a differant location. But I got the "page not found" error. I wasn't sure if it was just me or not so I asked some of the other people working in the office if they could connect to the company intranet, and they were all able to do so. Normally when I click the intranet button from my company website a white page pops open with a smaller window sitting on top of it. The smaller window is the "Connect to mycompany" window, where I put in my user name and password. Then the smaller window dissappers and the larger white page now displays the intranet homepage. But this time when I clicked on the intranet button the only thing that POPPED up was the "page not found" error.... the little "Connect to mycompany" window never opened. I couldn't figure out what the problem was, so I turned off the laptop for the night. The next day when I was around the city I tried showing some of the other users the problem I experienced the night before, hoping someone would be able to help me fix the problem. But now I wasn't GETTING the error. I was able to access the company intranet without a problem. So at that point I thought the problem was fixed but was still puzzled as to what had happened the night before. Later that day I got called into the homeoffice to do some work, and guess what.... I experienced the same problem as the day before. And just as the day before, nobody else was experiencing the problem. My internet connection works from all locations, and logging on to the company intranet works everywhere except for when I'm in the homeoffice. Does anyone have any suggestions?You have provided a lot of information, which is brilliant and refreshing. Unfortunately though, we need more. It sounds like you have a bespoke kind of connection to your office, and you may need to be guided by your I.T. department. Sounds like a problem with the router at your home office, but without a LOT more information about your equipment and network connections, we're pretty much stabbing in the dark.Thanks for your reply ROB. I ended up figuring out the problem. It was such as easy fix I feel dumb I didn't catch it sooner. I went into the TCP/IP properties for the wireless connection and found that someone entered a static IP address for the DNS server. I simply changed the settings to Obtain DNS server address automatically and everything now works fine.Great! Thanks for reporting back.

5761.	Solve : wireless network printer?
Answer» OK i was on the phone for almost 2.5 hours last night with dell tring to get my printer hooked up so i can print over the wireless network i put up last night. but dell said the only way to use the printer was to turn off the firewalls on both computers. i think there is a better way than that. both dells both xp home sp2 both clean ones a desktop (where the modem and router are) the other is my laptopNot much to GO on, but just some thoughts: If you use MAC address FILTERING on your router, make sure you added the MAC address of the printer to the allowable list Check your firewall, make sure the internal IP address of the printer is allowed to pass through. How is this all setup? Is there a printer server that needs to be configured? I'm sure others will have some more ideas/solutions. 8-)the printer is hooked up to my desktop. how do i do the mac adress and ip stuff?? thanks, unlovedwarriorYou're right in thinking that the Dell advisers (as usual) don't know what they're talking about, not if you deviate from their "script". Have you enabled file and print sharing on the desktop computer? If so you then need to share the printer from the desktop (right click-->sharing) and install it from the laptop. (Add new printer-->from network...) MAC/IP filtering doesn't apply in your case. Windows manages all the connection issues. If you get no joy, it may be that you need to open the NETBIOS ports on your desktop, but lets FACE that if we come to it.i did the file printing sharing i did install the print on my laptop i can print from it but i have to turn off the firewallsYou should be able to configure your firewall with "exceptions" to let your printer work. Alan <>< how do i do that in zonealarm and in pc-cilin internet sercuirty I don't have PC-Cillin Internet Security and Zonealarm is set up on my laptop (which isn't on at the moment), but you should be able to get into each program, poke around in Preferences / Options / etc. and configure your printer there. Sorry I can't be more specific. I don't RUN wireless printer servers on my network and had a dickens of-a-time getting one set up on my landlords home network Alan <>< thnx for the information

maybe try restarting your computer and unlpugging and replug the adapter in..

did this just start happening or has it been happening??its been weak sense i hooked it up last night... though it SEEMS to fluctuate it was really bad when i went to sleep but now it is at good... i will be going to wall-mart some time today i will check and see if they have any antennasis it secure or unsecure?? if not then ppl can use you signal and make it really slow..lol i hope its secure i think it is though...you need a WIP code to use it....even if it wasnt i wouldnt be to worried about people war driving around where i liveits secure if you need to put some kind of code in it to access it..

heres a thought maybe the signal is weak because you are using different products a linksys adapter and and whatever router..

Answer» Is that possible to send game file to email address.The size of the file is 150MB.If that is possible how can i do this?emildilov......... Wow ......... why don't you use a file transfer as opposed to trying to Email it ......... Most Email APPS have a size limitation......... Use the file transfer function thats built into say ...... msn messenger ...... Simply ZIP or Rar the file and transfer it that way....... dl65 Because i want to store some of my files in my email accounts if that is possible.My computer soon will crash down and i will loos my data because my computer don't have utility to record the files on CDBuy a burner and quit choking off e-mail servers...150MB is totally unsuitable for email transfer. Emails are TRANSMITTED in plain text by virtue of the constraints of the SMTP protocol. Binary ATTACHMENTS have to be encoded into plain text before transmission, which significantly increases the size of the file. FTP is far better SUITED to this purpose and can handle binary transfers efficiently. Furthermore, FTP is point-to-point, whereas SMTP may involve several different mail servers along the way, all of which would barf on such a huge file. My company does not allow attachments larger than 100MB, and to be honest, that's pretty generous. Most ISPs limit it to 10MB or less.

ok.. same as mine.. I copied/paisted the http:// into the profile text box.. but now I got a red X box ?? By the way the SIZE of the image is 3533 bytes

sorry to be a pain.. but I WONT give up..

Did you create a folder named forums in photobucket? Let's look at your code:
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y256/talismanp/forums/pic 2jpeg It has errors in it. No dot before JPEG. Is the file extension really jpeg or is it jpg? Is there supposed to be a space between pic and 2? In other words, please post the correct URL, as I did in a PREVIOUS post (http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y256/farmpond/forums/soybean4.jpg) so that we can see the image outside of this forum.Quote

5774.	Solve : Just a graphics question....?
Answer» I have a Compaq presario 6000 computer that is completely stock. i WANT to upgrade my graphics to be able to play a game (eve) and the minimum system requirements for graphics say an NVIDIA GeForce 2 class card or equal. i'm deciding on a RADEON 9250 pci graphics card, and i want to know if this card is equal to a geforce class 2 and if my system can support it. i have a VIA VT8375 ProSavageDDR KM266 chipset. any comments will be appreciated. thanksThe Radeon 9250 is a later generation card than nVidia's GeForce 2 series. So, it's more than equal to the nVidia GeForce 2 series. By the way, if you have an AGP slot, go with that instead of PCI. AGP is specifically designed for video and out-performs PCI.i definitely know there is a pci slot, but is there a way to check if i have an agp slot?Download, unzip, install and run Everest Home Edition http://www.comcen.com.au/~fed/everest.zip Select Computer>Motherboard>Motherboard from the left HAND panel. Then READ the Motherboard Physical INFO from the right hand panel.does it matter if the card has 2x or 4x or 8x agp? and i do have 1 agp slot.Open the case and look for a brown slot. See this illustration for an example of a motherboard with both PCI slots and an AGP slot: Accelerated Graphics Port . The illustration also has ISA slots; you probably have none of those; they are older technology. i figured i'd keep it on this topic....is it possible to upgrade my agp slot? it only supports 1x and 2x, and it's hard to find graphics cards that have it.You cannot upgrade an AGP slot. That's a fact.

Answer» [highlight]Ask your brother to go kick-start the "laptop". I kinda like the last SENTENCE in this article about- "where is the hardrive" [/highlight] The laptop PC at the heart of the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) initiative aimed at schoolchildren in developing countries will start rolling off production lines in the second quarter of next year. Taiwan’s Quanta Computer, the largest contract notebook PC manufacturer in the world, was tapped by the OLPC project to produce the low-cost devices, and says it’s gearing up to play its part. OLPC Concept Photo Although the final numbers will depend on how many orders come in for the “$100 laptop,” Quanta expects to produce 10 million of the devices in the first year of production, a company REPRESENTATIVE said Monday. The OLPC group, led by Nicholas Negroponte, chairman of OLPC and a cofounder of the MIT Media Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, plans to offer the low-cost laptops to governments and organizations around the world as an EDUCATIONAL tool to ensure schoolchildren in poor nations keep up in the digital age. A number of academic and industry groups worked together on the project to come up with the $100 laptop design. An improvement to inexpensive liquid crystal display (LCD) technology was key to pushing the cost of the laptop so low, according to the OLPC website. OLPC improved LCDs commonly found on inexpensive DVD players, resulting in a laptop screen costing $35. Normally, such screens make up hundreds of dollars of the cost of a notebook PC. OLPC also reduced the amount of software in the laptops, cutting the fat out of the system. "Today’s laptops have become obese. Two-thirds of their software is used to manage the other third, which mostly does the same functions nine different ways," the OLPC website says. In addition, the group believes that mass producing the laptops in very large numbers will keep costs down. The group had said it would not begin production until 5 million to 10 million of the laptop PCs had been paid for in advance. The machine will run the Linux OS on a 500MHz microprocessor from Advanced Micro Devices, will be wireless broadband-ready, and contain 128MB of DRAM and 500MB of flash memory for storage. The only major component missing will be a big hard disk, according to the group.
