64-bit IE on a Dell? by
Justin Credible
Got Win7 64-bit installed on my Inspiron and I have two different IE entries
in the Start/All Programs menu.
Bog standard IE and IE (64-bit).
What's the difference? The BBC website, for example, displays identically
in both?

How do you make a data-free image of C (system partition) ? by
Paul-J[_3_]
Using Acronis True Image -or the free editions called Seagate disk wizard or WD disk
wizard- I use to keep backup images of my C partition.
Since I still use XP + basic home user software, it only takes 3 minutes to make such a
backup (less than 2 GB).
In any doubtful situation (whatever due to...

P-ATA HDD Enclosure by
Daddy[_3_]
I have a spare 500GB internal P-ATA hard drive that I would like to make
into an external USB 2.0 hard drive. I see lots of enclosures advertised
for SATA, but very few for P-ATA. Not surprising, I suppose.
Any suggestions for a reliable enclosure for a P-ATA drive are
gratefully accepted....

XPS 9000 by
Ron
Could someone explain why the XPS 9000 is so much larger and heavier than,
say the 8100? I understand it has more slots, higher end cpu, and larger
power supply. But do those factors account for about 20 pounds more weight
and several more inches in the main dimensions?
Thanks, Ron

667 MHz memory? by
Ron Hardin
How come there's Vostro 1220's with 800 MHz memory and others
with 677 MHz memory?
Does it affect execution speed? One more thing to watch out for?
The FSB is 1066 MHz (battle of hastings) in both cases.

I think we can agree that I have beaten the life out of this topic, so
this is the last you'll hear from me about it.
In February, 2010, Dell issued a notice through its technical knowledge
base that it will no longer include a Windows 7 disc (or a Drivers and
Utilities disc) with its...

Well, my Studio XPS 8100 desktop showed up today...with a Windows 7 disc

Some may recall that after I placed my order, I read in a Dell
knowledgebase article that Dell was no longer shipping Windows discs
with its computers. That made me /mucho/ unhappy.
It may be that...

Discrete vs. integrated graphics by
Just me
From a practical standpoint, for someone who will spend most of their
time checking email, surfing the web, and writing the occasional Word
document, does it matter whether they have a discrete video card or if
the graphics are integrated with the motherboard?
Does it make a difference if the PC...
