Notebook unplugged, battery out, yet the notebook beeps every hour or so? I have never heard of this so I am asking help here. Does the cmos battery give off some type of alarm or something to cause this? is this even possible? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ivtv ( talk • contribs) 02:13, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Picture this - You're in a room with a group of friends, and you want to watch a movie on your Laptop. Problem is, you don't have any external speakers, and the headphones just won't do. So you've got this movie file which is just about audible. My question is, which player do you use in this situation ? Which player can give you the maximum sound on any media file ? I know VLC player is able to give a higher volume than Real Player or Windows Media player, but which player gives you the maximum ? Rkr1991 ( talk) 10:27, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

My (HP) monitor is failing to display when I turn on the system. I can get it to recover by unplugging the power cord for a moment. What might be happening? Just curious. I have another monitor to replace it with when needed. -- Halcatalyst ( talk) 18:09, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Right. I'm having one of "those days" and can't get my head around something.
I have a spreadsheet in which one cell is a university mark percentage (0-100%). Using an if/and statement, how could I have another cell display – in my case – the mark classification?
Example:

My hard disc crashed and I was told by a guy in a computing store that if I go to the microsoft windows website I can request a new installation disc and that this is free. Is this true? Where on the website can I find this? thanks in advance 79.191.22.69 ( talk) 19:42, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Am I able to use someone else's burned disc with my product key? I mean, I've already paid for the license. 79.191.22.69 ( talk) 20:24, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
I didn't say before that I have put in a new hard disc since. Does this change anything you have said? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.191.22.69 ( talk) 21:19, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
