Just a few hours ago my internet connection on my laptop stopped working without warning. I checked the modem/router and everything appeared fine, all the lights were on. I can access the internet on the same network through my smartphone, so I can definitely conclude that the problem is with the computer itself. I restarted it several times, nothing changed. I tried connecting directly to the LAN, not working there either. Rebooted in safe mode, still nothing. Performed system restore, again no improvement. I last performed a virus scan with AVG a couple days ago, nothing turned up then. I have the latest updates installed on my computer except for an update for my network adapter, which I ironically is what I had planned to download and install before my connection went kaput. Can anyone help me out here? I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 on an Emachine E625 if it helps. 70.52.77.249 ( talk) 07:14, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

Are there any standards for the usually cylindrical ends with a hole in them with metal on the outside and inside that you plug into your device? I've never seen one made for one product that fit just right with any other product, leaving alone the issue of different voltages coming out of the transformer in the other end with the wall plug. I'm just talking about device-side dimensions. Are there any standards at all or does every device have an unregulated geometry? If there is a standard, I'd love to see a link to it. 20.137.18.53 ( talk) 12:06, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
Does ebay allow you to sell a case of 24 diffrent videogames together as one item? For instance, can I can put 24 videogames together in one box, and sell the whole box for 90$ under one listing? This is so I wont have to pay the 0.5$ insertion fee for each game.
I called up customer service, and it required people to have ebay accounts. I dont have one,so they couldent answer my questions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by anon( talk) 17:19, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
I am aware that you can sell identical items together as a lot. I was wondering if you can sell a case of 24 different video games together in one box for 90$. — Preceding unsigned comment added by anon 17:43, 7 August 2012 (UTC)<!- Template:Unsigned IP --> Also can you sell a case of 24 different video games together in a box for 90$ on craigslist?-- 99.146.124.35 ( talk) 17:46, 7 August 2012 (UTC)anon
I'm using FF 14.0.1 on Ubuntu 12.04. When I shut down FF I usually have several tabs open. Sometimes when I start it the only tab that updates is the one I am on. The other tabs all show the name but are white instead of grey and when clicked on are blank and only then begin to update. Any idea why and where is the update all command?

How can I make Google reader RSS feed for Wikipedia FA? I know about this, any other suggestion? -- Tito Dutta ✉ 18:49, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
Is there a way to do a screen grab, and store it to a file, from the Command Prompt, in Windows XP SP3 ?
Are there any tools (preferably free and for linux) which can generate a pretty printout from a MySQL database as pdf (or any similar format)? As an example, let's say I have a database with names of people and (links to) their images. The generated pdf should then show images and associated names in a grid. If there are no such tools, perhaps there are tools which take image files and text files (with names) directly, i.e. not from a database. bamse ( talk) 23:40, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
