How many bites in a megabite?

There are approximately 1 million bytes in a Megabyte. I say approximately because the conversion is not exact. 1 Kilobyte = 1,024 Bytes. And 1 Megabyte is 1,024 Kilobytes. So to be exact, 1 Megabyte is 1,048,576 bytes.

Basic term and definition of enhanced mobile satellite services?

A "satellite" is an object that orbits around another object. In astronomy terms, we think of them as being bound by gravity, but the word "satellite" is often used to refer to political or social terms as well.

When you put your curser on an item it just goes there without clicking How do you stop that?

If you are talking about a webpage, then this happens becauuse the page is coded this way. It is, most likely, done by JavaScript. The code says when the moves pointer rolls over me send the viewer to a different page. The only way this can be stopped is by turning off JavaScript in the Tools->Internet Options menu. Open this and click on the "advanced" tab on the extreme right. There should be somewhere you can check "Disable JavaScript". If you can't do this, the best you can do is not rollover the link.

A fatal system error is a computer glitch that can be caused by downloading an attachment from an email that could have been the product of a virus.

What are the major diagnostic applications that can be used during the repair of a computer?

It all depends on the trouble. Here are some of the applications and categories:

1. Assuming the computer does boot, antivirus and spyware applications would be among the first used. That would include Norton Antivirus, Mcafee, Spybot Search and Destroy, Malware Bytes, Lavasoft Adaware, etc.

2. The control panel and programs such as Autoruns (free from Microsoft) can be used to look for and remove programs that start when the computer starts.

3. Registry tools are often needed, ranging from Regedit that comes with Windows, to Norton WinDoctor, Autoruns, to various specialty registry tools, including several named "RegCleaner."

4. Junk remover tools are helpful. Ccleaner (formerly known as Cr*p Cleaner) is a common one.

5. Hardware identification utilities come in handy. That would include Belarc Advisor, CPUz, GPUz, and others.

6. Data recovery programs are often used. There are many different ones, and nearly every major utility package has one.

7. Hard drive integrity programs. In the older days, Spinrite was among the top recommended in this category. When drives required low-level formatting, Spinrite could be used for recovery, refresh the format, and to reformat any bad spots, blocking any from use which cannot be trusted. Nowadays, such programs like Spinrite are not applicable, but there are utilities to analyze the sectors, recover any data, and to mark any bad sectors so they can be avoided.

8. Hardware testers and analyzers. Those can help spot electronic problems, bad memory, CPU errors, and so on. Then you would know what parts to change.

9. Password recovery software is sometimes used.

10. Partition editors and partition recovery programs are used in data recovery and in resolving odd hard drive partition problems.

11. There are specialized security programs such as Hijack This and specialized antivirus programs like Combofix. Combofix is a very powerful program designed for a narrow range of problems, and you may cause problems if you don't know how to use it (or why).

What computers will be like?

This question is rather vague, but I'll do my best here.

The next generation of computers will likely be faster and better, as they have been getting more and more so without slowing down since their creation.

Instead of making a single processor be faster and faster (as nowadays most increases in speed are less and less noticable), computers may have two or three (or more) processors that divide the work in order to process more information at the same time, however this would require quite an overhaul in a lot of programming, so it's not something that'll just spring up.

"Cloud" programming is an idea that is having a lot of stock placed in it. It is the idea that instead of holding most of your information on your personal hardware, the companies that produce it will instead hold the vast majority of the info on their hard drives and servers and such. This will allow incredibly smaller computers to do the exact same things a large one could do, just be downloading all the processed information from the internet, rather than processing itself.

Imagine a watch-sized computer that is essentially a port to the rest of the actual computer that functions just as well!

This, of coarse, is all speculation and nothing can truly be known about the future. Did anyone in the 1900s dream about something like the Tv? Did people in the 1950s, completely comfortable with the tv, imagine something like the internet? Will people in the 2000s, completely at home with the internet, be able to think of what amazing thing will emerge for the next generation? Not a chance.

Your PC does not shut down when turned off?

Specifying the Operating System would help a lot, but I can give you a generic break down of a typical Windows machine which is the safest guess. If it is exiting the operating system, going to a blank screen and not shutting off it could be a faulty Power Supply(PSU). If your operating system is still visible while shutting down and not shutting off, you can have a background program running that is causing a conflict or is malfunctioning. You may want to view your Event Viewer or when shutting down wait for an error message to tell you which program is having an issue when shutting off. This will allow you to disable to application causing the delay.
