Hello everyone, In another thread, a discussion took place when a poster asked for a link to a registry cleaner. I gave the person who asked for a link to a good registry cleaner a link to be able to download a good registry cleaner. The discussion centered around whether or not he should be...

On this website: http://www.dell.com/html/us/products/renegade/renegade.html?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs it says that the new Dell XPS 600 is fueled by fire. How in the hell do they keep it cool? Is it water cooled or air cooled or both? It must run hot a lot even if it is water cooled. I think...

Hi all, I have an Dell Inspiron 8000 with XP Pro on it. When I turn it on, it runs for a while then the screen goes blank and all the lights on the keyboard are off. Then, when I push on the power button, the laptop does a Windows shutdown. After the shutdown, the battery light stays on. When I...

Hi all, I have a PowerEdge 2400 that just started beeping. It says one of the two 18G scsi drives in it was not being recognized on bootup. It still boots and runs fine because the two drives are mirrored so it is running off the one that is still good (but it still beeps). I would like to put...

Hi all, I have two Dells, an older one and a brand new one. I have a lot of music files on the old one that I am transfering to the new one. Both have XP Home on them. I took the hard drive out of the old one and made it the slave on the new one. I had to boot in safe mode to take over...

Hi all, I have a Latitude D610 and I have reloaded all the drivers I could find. I even loaded the Conexant driver for the modem which went fine. Problem is, it is still showing in Control Panel that there is a PCI Simple Communication Controller in Other devices like it needs a driver to be...

We've got a dell dimension xps r450. Sometimes, when it boots, it doesn't recognize the rwdvd or rwcd players. When this happens, it also doesn't recognize the audio cards. Was wondering what might be causing this and how to fix it. Thanks.

We have a dell pavilion 8775c. We've been having this problem recently - windows isn't finding our sound card on cold boot. It finds it when we reboot. The sound card is a tbs montegoII. There seems to be a conflict between files for the sound card driver and norton systemworks. I had to reinstall...

We have a dell dimension xps r450. It came with an 8G hard drive that had dell windows 98 installed. I added a hard drive from an old computer that uses windows 98 (not dell) and am using this drive as boot. We've been having problems with the "blue screen" at boot (fatal exception OE). Could this...

I'm ready to upgrade my old old Inspiron 7000 laptops. Is there a reliable website for laptop/notebook computer reviews ? I can't decide between another Dell and a Toshiba. Could stretch for a Thinkpad if it had any special appeal, but I don't see it yet. Wonder if Dell has any new models...
