Goto start -> Run and type winmsd.exe. This will bring up system info page. If the string next to Processor is x86, its a 32 bit machine . If the string next to processor is ia64 or AMD64 then its a 64 bit machine.

Which transfer method requires least specialized hardware on a PC?
Either Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or direct USB connection.
What is number system in computer?
A collection of things together with operations on those numbers and the properties that the operations satisfy or in other words, a collection of numbers together with operations, properties of the operations, and a system of representing these numbers.
Is a 2-to-1 mux functionally complete?
Yes.
AND operation
= f(A,B) = AB = A'f(0,B) + Af(1,B)
= A'(0B) + A(1B) = A'0 + AB
OR operation
- f(A,B) = A+B = A'f(0,B) + Af(1,B)
= A'(0+B) + A(1+B) = A'B + A1
NOT operation
- f(A) = A' = A'f(0) + Af(1)
= A'(1) + A(0)
A computer that has been returned to a manufacturer and resold is known as what?
Generally, anyelectronics that have been returned to a manufacturer and resold via retail channel are known as refurbished goods. They are usually advertised with at least one of the following words:
* Refurbished
* Pre-Owned
* Used
Computer chips are made from what element?
Computer chips are made from silicon because it's a natural semiconductor and is the second most abundant element on Earth. To make the wafers, silicon is purified, melted and cooled to form an ingot, then it is sliced into discs.
Why did dial-up modems give sounds?
Telephone lines were designed for analog communication in the audible range (aka talking). To transfer data over a telephone line, the computer had to convert a digital signal into an analog one in the audible or near-audible range. Otherwise the line wouldn't be sensitive enough and wouldn't transfer the data correctly.
What HP computer is best for graphic design?
There is no specific HP computer that is deemed best for graphic design but it is advisable to go for the HP PCs with the ample processing power, RAM and graphics capabilities required to handle the graphic design software. An example is the HP Pavilion 500-314 desktop.
What are Definitions and characteristics of computer?
A Computer is an electronic device used for
C -Calculate,
O -Operate,
M -Mathematical Operations
P -Print,
U -User Friendly operations
T -Telecommunication
E -Exploring world and its people
R -Record and database maintenance
Characteristics of a Computer
1. Have a memory and work through the logic's developed by human beings.
2. Comprises of One modem/screen, CPU-Central processing Unit,and Keyboard and
Mouse mainly.Other devices are headphone web camera,pen drives etc.
3 Can be effected by Virus.
4. Non Reliable data can be lost unless backup is not taken.
5. Needs certain hardware and software like modem(hardware) & explorer(software) to
connect internet.
6. Can be used in Network.
7. Widely used for business/official and personal use.
8. Cannot wok in absence of power or battery.
9. Has Multimedia features like you can draw/develop of see a cartoon movies.
10.Works faster than a normal human being.
Do you use firewire or USB to plug a video camera into a computer?
It depends on the camera. Digital cameras will have either a Firewire or a USB connector and some have both. If the camera has both, it is likely that either can be used to transfer video to a computer although some older cameras used Firewire for video transfer and USB for still image transfer. It is always worth checking the camera's manual to find out the functions of the data ports.
What do DO initials stand for?
They stand for Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, which is a professional degree of physicians and surgeons. It is a bit different than an M.D. in the sense that D.O.'s are taught physical manipulation, but other than that they both require virtually the same education, which is 8 years (bachelors degree and medical school) plus any residency and/or specialty training.
CAM is Computer Aided Manufacturing, and is associated with CNC machines (Computer Numeric Control). CAD is Computer Aided Design, which is making drawings and plans using software on a computer instead of on paper. There is also CAE, Computer Aided Engineering, which is computer simulation of physical objects and events.
What are four places a computer output can go?
In the side the back and the desktop, also the cd outlet.
What does a data patch panel look like?
Use the link below to see some pictures rather than sit through a description. Click and find out firsthand if a picture is worth a thousand words.
USB = Universal Serial Bus

What is the need of Input Output Module in comuters?
Input/Output, also known as I/O, modules provide the interfaces for the user to be able to work with a computer. Input devices are things like keyboards, mice, microphones, scanners, punch cards, etc. Output devices are things such as monitors, printers, speakers, and the like. Each piece of hardware also has I/O channels. For example, when you save data to the harddrive, that action is considered to be a write operation (input) to the drive, while launching a program starts a read (output) operation from the harddrive.
What are the four major system resources used by computer devices?
The major system resources to consider are the I/O port address, memory addresses, IRQ, and DMA settings.
yeah!! smash the keys out with a hammer and put a pinch of salt and a dash of cinnamon and your good to go!!! yum yum yum yum i love key boards!!!
What is the density of PCB in grams?
The density of polychlorinated biphenyl cogeners varies, generally between approximately 1 g/cm3 and 1.6 g/cm3 at 25°C (density will also tend to vary with temperature). The density of aroclor 1254 (a PCB that is 54% chlorine) is 1.51 g/cm3 at 25°C. The density of aroclor 1260 (a PCB that is 60% chlorine) is 1.593 g/cm3 at 25°C.
How do you turn a camera into a taser?
Making a tazer is surprisingly easy. All you have to do is buy a disposable camera with a flash. It can be just about any type. All you have to do is take the paper or cardboard off the camera then you should be left with a plastic casing. you might see some little hook like things. You have to undo these. Its a little tricky but it's possible. after that you will be holding the actual device. Now you'll have to look for the capacitor. It's probably near the flash or on the side of the camera. Be careful and do not touch this. Now you just have to find the flash button. Press this and you should hear a sound. If you do then if someone touches the capacitor while your holding the button it should shock them. Be careful because sometimes the capacitor can still shock you even if there's no batteries in it. I f the capacitor stops working you can make them touch the green panel and this will have the same effect as the capacitor. Be careful because my cousin did this and it turned a little part of his finger black. It's cheap but effective.
Can you transfer usb files to memory card?
Yes. File is a file, it can be transferred to any place, usb, harddrive, memory card etc (provided you have write access)
Why should the general public care about how memory works?
Understanding how memory works is important because it impacts our daily lives, from learning new information to recalling past experiences. Knowledge of memory can help improve study habits, enhance decision-making, and prevent memory-related disorders. Additionally, understanding memory can lead to a better grasp of cognition and human brain function.
Why 1 is using as on state in binary language?
Computers are built off of electronic circuits, in which there is either no voltage or there is some positive number (usually 3.3V, 5V or 12V). 1 represents an electric charge while 0 represents no charge.
What is function of 89s52 microcontroller?
The 89S52 has four different ports. Each one of the ports has eight input/output lines. The ports are used to output data.
