Presario at Walmart: Any good? by MIRSE
Has anyone bought that $500 Compaq Presario now on sale at Walmart (AMD Athlon XP 2400+)? Is it any good? We have a Compaq Presario 5245 that we bought new a few years ago (AMD-K6-2, 400MHz).

'input signal out of range' error message by Homer Simpson
That sounds more like a message from your monitor instead of from the PC. Try booting to safe mode (keep pressing the F5 key) and make sure your monitor make and model is identified by ME.

HP Omnibook Xe2 LCD Screen half out by Gary Seven
I bought my mother a secondhand HP Ombibook Xe2 last year. Big mistake. After a few weeks the left side of the screen is out. If I squeze the bottom part of the screen it might come on, but after a while that stopped doing the trick. Is there anything I can do to fix that?

I left my 1215US open and where my two year old could get to it. (dumb I know...) He thought it would be helpful if he removed a few of the keycaps from the keyboard. I was successful in snapping them back on, but now those keys don't have the same click or snap that the other do. I did try to...

I want to put a CD-RW drive in my EVO. I know the inside of the case is semi-proprietary and thinking maybe that the BIOS will be picky on what I put in. So what should I do?
