Computers

Someone who can read, but not as well as society expects. An example, someone could read road signs and phonebook listing, but could not read a novel without stumbling through it often.

No.

The IRS, for instance, processes your tax return on computers that - quite wisely - do not connect to the internet. When your return is submitted, it ends up on storage media which is hauled on carts across the hall to computers that calculate your refund or amount due. You can imagine how much a clever virus writer could make otherwise.

A modem is a modulator/demodulator, which converts between electronic signals and the sounds transmitted by a POTS (Plain Old Telephone Signal) line. Those likes have a top speed of only about 53kbps - too slow for much of anything these days except FAX, which runs at 9600 bps.

Broadband "modems" are not really modems.

A true "talking computer" would require two things: a speech synthesizer to create the voice, and an artificial intelligence (AI) to provide the lines. We still haven't managed to create a true AI, but speech synthesizers are included in most PCs nowadays. There's one in Windows called Microsoft Sam. He'll read out a sentence typed into the Voice section in Control Panel for you. However, he highlights the problem with speech synthesis: it lacks inflection and doesn't sound very human. To add the inflection, we'd need that aforementioned artificial intelligence. Or, at least, a modification for the existing text-to-speech software allowing for inflection designation tags. Anyway, that's why we have no talking computers: lack of sufficiently human speech.

Yes a mac can have a slow internet speed.

there are 2 diffferent styles of the 25 pin connectors on the back of a pc. One is called the male gender which can be identified by gold colored pins sticking out and are layed out in 2 rows- top row has 13 pins and second row has 12 pins. the other style is layed out the same way,however, it is called the female gender and all you can see is 25 holes instead of pins. The male connector is used for "serial" type of communication where the coded information is sent to another device using 1 wire in the cable to send information and 1 wire to receive information from another device. the other wires in the connector are used for control of data back and forth between devices. This was the first way devices communicated bi-directionally with each other. The female connector is used for "parallel" style communication and is usually only used to send data to a printer.

Yes, the career in hardware and networking field is very well paid. You can expect a handsome salary package in this field. Today, computer has become the central point of all the businesses, and office networking has also become important.

Depends on what job you are about to do. Anyway, be honest but don't go too high, technical speaking lol.

================================= With the fast development of network, the network issues such as viruses, attacks, hacks are increasing day by day. So network monitor and analysis is becoming more and more necessary nowadays. If you are interested in PACKET SNIFFER, I'd like to share it with you. All at http://www.etherlook.com

1. Hold the Power Button in for 5 seconds to turn off the computer.

2. Wait 5 seconds and press the Power Button again to start the computer.

3. Press F8 after the HP or Compaq logo screen, but before the Windows logo screen is displayed. 4. select LKGc

if you want to sell it to me,you could find it out :-)

there are no high paying A+ jobs anywhere.

To generate a hard copy for filing purposes.

input device is the one which gives data to the computer to compile a particular command or instruction like__ keyboard, mouse, scanner etc output device is the one which gives us output of a certain command or instruction given to the computer like__ monitor, printer and web camera etc.

There are primarily two types of Character Generators Hardware based and Software based. CGs (Character generators) have evolved a lot with the advancement in technology over the years. Computers use a character generator ROM that converts ASCII bytes into tiny dot matrix pattern for displaying on screen. The dot matrix pattern has various densities ranging from 5x7 to 10x12. This means that lower the resolution of the dot matrix, low the cost and vice versa.

Hardware based Character generators: These are mostly used in Television Studios and Video editing suites, where a desktop publishing like interface is used to generate static or moving text or graphics, which is then encoded into a high quality video signal by the device such as digital SDI or analog component video or even high definition.

Software based Character generators: Software based CGs run on standard off-the-shelf hardware, and are often integrated into a non-linear video editing software.

Traditional CGs are based on 2D graphics while most modern CGs offer richer 3D displays with video playback and audio embed support.

No.

Adobe Reader is an application for viewing .pdf Files on your computer.

Adobe Air is a platform that third party developers can create ''apps'' for.

Typically, no. Overloading a computer can cause bluescreens, freezing, very poor performance, and errors. However power loss indicates a hardware problem, not software.

Sudden power loss is typically the result of either failing hardware, or a lack of adequate power form the PSU. If the power supply (PSU) is smaller than the computer's needs, it may overload and shut down to prevent frying your computer.

Power Supplies lose capacity over time, roughly 10-20% a year. So if your computer draws roughly 500 watts maximum and you have a 2 years old 650 watt power supply, it is likely drawing 500 watts on a power supply that can only provide 410-530 watts reliably.

It can also be caused by a faulty power supply. I would recommend you bring the computer to a technician for diagnosis.

Remember:

Software *rarely* causes hardware malfunction. BSODs, crashes, freezing, errors, may be signs of hardware problems, but are just as often the result of software!

All the Hardware and Software used in a computer system is called: Information Technology

It stands for page file usage. Page file usage is the variable amount of hard drive space that is dedicated to your total system memory.

No. Dell is not Japanese. Its founder is an American called Micheal Dell. Its headquarters is located in California.

If you are wondering if there is currently a program that converts a person's typed communications into audible voice, the answer is yes. You may need Windows Vista but try this:

From your start button go to >control panel and select> SPEECH. Then, you will see a tab that says text to speech. This is probably just one way to get started. Unsure if there is a Skype program for this.

This is Random Access Memory. It is a form of data storage. Data does not need to be in any particular order with RAM. It is quick, unlike CDROMS for instance which have to be recorded and require the physical movement of a reading head.

Yes. Do it every 1 - 2 weeks once.

It's how to set up, or make, your computer personalized. Backgrounds, colors, all decided here.

The BIOS saves data on a CMOS chip that is still volatile like other memory, but it is typically powered by a CR2032 button battery. If this battery fully discharges or is removed, the data stored in CMOS is lost and the BIOS settings will automatically be reset to default.
