Windows doesn't recognize drive by
Lil' Abner
I'm working on a Dell Dimension 8400.
It has two SATA drives, one 500Gb and the other is 160Gb.
The Seagate 500 is getting flaky but still readable.
I used Acronis to clone the drive to a WD 500Gb drive.
OK, the 500Gb drive is the system drive. It won't boot.
So I use the Dell Recovery CD and when...

LOL false advertising by
SharkD
I just bought specifically a 1GB SD card for $9.99 from Walgreens
because my old PDA can't read anything over 1GB. Turns out the disk is
2GB! This, despite the big "1GB" on the disk label. Wasted $9.99.

Can't format Disney preloaded SD card by
SharkD
I bought one of those Disney preloaded SD cards cheap, thinking I
could just blank it and use it for storage. However, I can't get the
damned thing formatted. There's a single file called HSM.smv. If I try
deleting the file and replacing it with new files, Explorer seems to
think everything's OK....

normally for an hour or two but...

TVs with computer inputs, vs computer monitors with TV tuners...? by
Dan Lenski
Hi all,
This is kind of a general question, but one I've been wondering about...
I'd like to get an LCD that I can use as both a computer monitor *and* a
TV. I see that nearly all 1080p LCD "TVs" now have VGA and PC audio
inputs, while a few LCD "computer monitors" include built-in TV...

EPIC Fail computer! by
Animenia[_21_]
Hi.
Alright, nevermind the lights.
When you start the system the fans go on? Do they stay on or do they
shutdown after a little while?
What about the monitor led? Does it stay green or go orange/yellow? Got
any image at all? Any error messages displayed if they do?
