What computers are compatible with word processing?
that depends on what version of word processor you are using. the latest versions of Microsoft office push the limits of what is acceptable bloat for a word processor.
Openoffice is free, small, and can install on almost anything that has Java Runtime installed, and has 250MB of free space. Plus it's compatible with Microsoft office formats.
How do you connect two computers using a crossover cable?
You need to configure a static IP address on both items to enable them to talk to each other. I.E. set the PC to 192.168.1.2 and the printer to 192.168.1.3 Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask. The gateway can be set to 192.168.1.1 although this setting is not needed for a crossover cable. The Problem is that I don't have the printer cable and the only way to attach the printer is via an ethernet crossover cable. the printer is from an office and was networked previously. I did a configuration print out of the printer and I set up the IP address already given to the printer on the printout. I gave my laptop the same IP address and subnet as the print out and set up a network using the network wizard but I still cannot see or access the printer.
What is a device that sends information into a computer?
Peripherals. These are devices that are attached to the computer that a user can interact with in some way, shape, or form - basically anything you can connect to a computer that isn't another computer. Things such as the mouse, keyboard, and scanners allow the user to input data into the computer, while those such as a printer, monitor, and speakers allow the computer to return information to the user. Some devices, such as a headset with both speakers and a microphone built in, play both roles in one device.
What is the recommended maximum length of an RS-530 cable?
RS 530 has a logarithmic degradation on cable length as the data signaling rate increases. These are some of the readings on the chart: up to 90k b/s - 1.2k meters.....400k b/s - 300 meters....1.2 M b/s - 100 meters approx......2 M b/s - 40 meters....6 M b/s - 20 meters...10 M b/s - approx 15 meters....
Is 2.8 GHz bigger than 1.0 GHz?
No, a 2.80 GHz processor can run calculations significantly more quickly than a 1.8 GHz processor. Therefor, a computer with a 2.8 GHz CPU will tend to run more quickly than one with a 1.8 GHz CPU, depending on other limiting factors. If you can see no difference, then something else is slowing it down, like a lack of R.A.M.
Devices- 6
W= n(n-1)/2
whereby W is number of cables
n is number of devices
solution
W= 6(6-1)/2
=6(5)/2
=3(5)
=15
15 cables
How does a microprocessor use the data input devices to control an automatic cooker?
It controls just about everything the cooker does. This includes maintaining a fixed temperature, timing a meal and even controlling the self-cleaning function ( if it has one).
Why computer components called hardware?
Hardware is the core of the computer system .all the inputs will be given with the usage of hardware device such as keyboards,mouse etc,
Here are some different storage devices:
Why usb is called universal serial bus?
Because it is universal, meaning that it was developed to allow all kinds of hardware devices to connect to a computer with the same connection. With the USB all computer manufactures and hardware manufactures use the exact same type connection rather than them all using their own type connector. This allows you to buy any mouse from any manufacture and it will then connect to any computer no matter who made it. It is universal.
What temperature should a processor be running at?
The "normal" temperature of a processor can greatly vary between computers, but from what i've heard:
20°C (68°F) to 29°C (84°F) is a bit low, but operable
30°C (86°F) to 50°C (122°F) would be in the "normal" range
51° (124°F) to 79°C (174°F) would be slightly high (but usually occurs during stress e.g, gaming)
80°C (176°F) to 90°C (194°F) and above, is extremely dangerous, immediately shut off your computer, these temperatures may lead to damages to various parts of your PC (motherboard, CPU etc.)
My CPU usually idles around 32°C, and when i'm gaming, it usually hits between 45°C-50°C. I also have an after-market heatsink and multiple exhaust fans which help with the temperature.
The IBM BIOS is the BIOS (Basic Input Output System), or firmware, of the original IBM PC. Most "PC" systems created to this very day maintain almost complete backwards-compatibility with the BIOS, in order to run older programs and legacy operating systems.
What do you need to install chipset drivers?
Youll need to know what chipset you have. This may not be particularly easy to do if your system is not a brand name system.
If it is a brand name system, start a question like "What chipset does a (insert brand and model) computer have?" And hopefully we'll be able to answer it.
If it isn't a brand name system, this is a stickier situation. The only way to get windows to tell you what chipset you have is to look at what drivers its using. Presumably if your system was using the right drivers you wouldn't be looking to install new ones, so its a bit of a catch-22.
There is a program you can run which will tell you. It is called unknown device identifier. With a little know-how and a bit of luck you can use it to figure out what chipset you have. I will link to it below.
Once you know what chipset youre looking for, 99% of the job is finished. Just go on Google & search for it.
Does having your laptop charging constantly ruin the battery?
well ya cause it over charges the cell and starts to kill the ions. i looked this up myself and it turns out that if your using it as a desktop, fully use the battery, charge back to 100% then bring it down to about 40% then sut down your com, unplug it and pull out the battery and it could last forever like that
There are five different meanings of the acronym PXE. The five definitions of PXE are Preboot Execution Environment, Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum, Partial XML Envelope, Proof & Experimental Establishment, and Post Exercise Evaluation.
Why is the fax an output device?
Computer systems are composed of three parts - Input, Processing, and Output. You put stuff INTO a computer with the parts of the input system - keyboard, ports, etc etc. The processor process the data. OUTPUT devices take information from "inside" the computer, and convert it to an external form - e.g., the paper in a printer. Plus, most printers don't have any functionality like a keyboard with which to communicate with your processor (notwithstanding the settings you might be able to manipulate with some printers.)
The printer is a standard output device since the data goes out as opposed to a keyboard or mouse whose movement signals input to the computing device. Some things can be both such as a touch screen display.
What happens when you stick a key in USB port?
First of all I'm using Protemac Logon Sentry soft. It creates a usb key from a usual usb flash drive.
When i put on my usb flash there is a window where i can insert a passwod. If it's righjt it i can access to my Mac. If no - you have an another try!
Where can you get drivers for a DVD-RW drive?
One could shop for a DVD-RW drive at Amazon or many other major retailers nationwide. Best Buy, Walmart and TigerDirect is also good places to compare the best price for the right one you need.
A system may have up to how many ribbon cables?
Many newer systems don't have any ribbon cables at all. Ribbon cables were used for IDE drives, SCSI drives, and floppy drives. The number of cables will depend on the number of drives in the system (16 drives per SCSI cable, 2 per IDE cable, and 2 per floppy cable).
What are the coloured wires used in ATX power supply?
The color code of the wires in the power supply is: Red = +5V Black = Ground (0V) White = -5V Yellow = +12V Blue = -12V Orange = +3.3V Purple = +5V Standby Gray = power is on (output) Green = Turn DC on (input)
