How do I get my Dell Axim to connect to the internet?

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

I have a wireless signal and I can’t figure out what settings I need to get it to connect. (It has a built in adapter)

I think I use the WLAN Utility, but not sure what SSID Net mask, gate way and IP address to put in.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

What is the benefit of dual video cards? Can it be done to a Dell Dimension 8400?

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

I have found ATI Radeon x1600’s for less than half of their retail price on ebay, I have seen that high-end rigs use dual video cards. Would this be beneficial in my case with these cards and would it be fairly easy to modify my Dell Dimension 8400 to work off of both of them? Thanks.

I have a dell diminsion 2400 desktop computer and looking to upgrade my hard-drive?

Monday, September 7th, 2009

I have a 40g hard drive and looking to upgrade, i looked on the dell website for upgrades but all they have were external hard drives. I have an external hard drive already. I am looking for internal, could i find any dell internal hard drives somewhere else? I looked on ebay, and that was no help.
If i migrated all of windows(requird)folders to an external hard drive, would that corrupt anything since the main drive is C?
Alot of updates are taking space on my hard drive and i usually have about 18-19.2g of free space. I’m down to about 16.0-16.5 of free space and my computer is slowing down. I do use disk clean up, and disk defragmenter. The only reason i havent fully used my external is because I didnt want to move important files that can damage programes.

Friday, August 28th, 2009

My laptop charger broke. So i went to look on eBay and it looks like there are two types of chargers - PA10 or PA12 - on eBay it says you have to check which charger your laptop can take before you buy it.

Where do I look on my laptop to see which charger i need to buy??
