    I bought a latop with an irda port, but cant figuer out how to use it. I enabled it in setup. I installed the driver. My friend brought over his psp and it was communicating alittle, but i cant figuer out how to do anything with the port (i.e. transfer files) Id imagine when a devic is communicating with my irda port, some software would pop up asking me what to do. I am unning xp if that helps.

    I just bought a new laptop for college!!! Now what I want to do is transfer stuff from the desktop I've been using for the past few years to the laptop. What's the easiest way to do this? I'd assume setting up a network but I really don't know what's involved in that. It should be basic stuff transfered like a few word files and some music. Can anyone tell me the easiest/cheapest way to do this? Thanks.

  5. I have a compaq PIII desktop computer with two HDs a FD and a CD drive installed. I needed to format another HD so I uninstalled the CD drive and replaced it with the other HD and ran FDisk from a floppy on the other HD. Then Uninstalled the other HD and reinstalled the CD drive. Now I cant boot from my original HD and once the BIOS fails other boot options I get Non-System disk or disk error replace and strike any key when ready _ I have checked the boot order and there arent any prioblems there and I don't know what I should do. Any ideas?

    I got a problem on my cartridge. I thought it was almost out of ink, so I refilled some into it. But after that, the intensity of the black colour decreases. I am absolutely sure about it. The most strange thing is: My printer is all-in-one. That means I can scan some documents and print them out without my computer on. The intensity of the black colour is normal and perfect for this option. Can anyone help me? In the photo, the background and the text show their difference in intensity obviously.

    So I was playing around with my winXP kernel hoping to improve the system a little, it's nothing I ain't done before! I decided to replace my current kernel with a updated version I made a few weeks back but never got around to booting into safe mode for to override current system files. This kernel I was playing with is the ntsokrnl.exe which some of you may have seen before, it's a windows critical file! Anyway, after successfully implementing my new kernel my computer couldn't boot. I went into safe mode (where it shows what is loading) and it got stuck on ntsokrnl.exe.... I had a corrupt version of windows which couldn't start! So I boot off the winXP CD and t…

    Ok, when I try to install the BF2 demo, it does the install sheild wizard thing. Then as you all know, a little picture comes up saying "Battlefield 2". As soon as that picture loads, an error message comes up saying: "You need to have administrator privileges to run setup." What is that all about? I am running a Windows ME, and there is no administrator for my home computer. We have two computers. One is my parent's, the other is mine and my sister's. I play all my games on my computer. I never set up any sort of multiple user thing at all on my computer. Just to test things out, I downloaded the Empire Earth 2 demo, and installed it. It worket out fine. No…
