Do offers like free Xbox 360 really work?

no, they are not. think about it...why would someone give you something that costs $300 for free??? Some are but not the ones you see on the first pages of a google search or on Tv. For those you have to like refer 10 people to the site and they all have to do surveys and refer more people and it's like a whole "pyramid scheme" sorta thing. There are sites that give you points for doing free surveys and allowing them to spam a email address that you give them. Then you trade the points for prizes. I assure you that if/when you get enough points the WILL GIVE YOU A FREE XBOX360, but it might take a while. 1- Make sure you make a new email since it is going to be bombarded with spam. I suggest to make a free yahoo email.

2- During the surveys you just enter some information. Does have to be your real information but the City/State/ and zip have to be accurate.

3- After you earned enough points you can redeem the prizes they have or if you want a custom prize you can tell them the link and the cost and they will buy it for you as long as you have enough points. When doing custom prizes 1 point = $1 USD.

Which Laptop or desktop computers come with free Photoshop?

How do you install an internal floppy disc drive into a laptop?

Most modern laptops do not have space for a floppy drive internally, so this is impossible on them.

If you have an old laptop that has space for a floppy drive internally, it probably already has one so you don't need to install one. However if that existing internal floppy drive has failed you will have to replace it (assuming you can find a floppy drive to replace it with). To replace the existing internal floppy drive you will need the manufacturer's documents on how to open the laptop's case, get access to the floppy drive, and swap out the old one and replace it with the new one. This will almost certainly require special tools (e.g. torx drivers, wrenches) that you don't already have and will need to buy if you don't already frequently do such work.

Is it worth it to buy a 5 year 72K mile extended warranty on a 2006 Saturn Vue for 1700?

Very much so?YES There is something to be aware of: We had a 2003 Bonneville that was totalled in an accident. It was still under the factory warranty. Thankfully someone mentioned that we could get the money back for the extended warranty. It turned out to be somewhat true - I don't remember the numbers, but I believe that we got back less than one-half of what we paid for the extended warranty even though the car was totalled before the extended warranty had any value to us. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't get an extended warranty, but you will lose money if the car is totalled or stolen (and not recovered) before the warranty becomes effective. I don't know if this is true of all automotive extended warranties, but if it would make a difference to you, I would advise checking into it before purchasing the extended warranty. In case you are wondering, it was in the fine print of the paperwork that we signed.

Can you change your laptops graphics card for a new one if you have an Acer aspire 3690?

Probably not. Laptop video cards are built in to the motherboard. The entire laptop is usually built around the motherboard and it probably wouldn't be worth the effort to try to replace it.

If you're after a specific graphics card you would be better off building a PC from scratch. Many web sites will sell you everything you need and that gives you the flexibility to mix/match whatever you want.

Does the sims 3 work on a medion akoya e1222 laptop?

Can you run battlefield 4 or any game well on a 'Intel R HD graphics card' and 6gb of RAM?

When it comes to gaming it is usually better to have a graphics card that isn't an integrated one unless it is a good brand like ATI or Nvidia. With that said, Battlefield 4 is a new game and generally new games require newer hardware to run smoothly. This is mainly due to the visuals of the game being so resource hungry.

With that said, Battlefield 4 will more than likely see performance issues if you are playing it on a computer/laptop that is processing all the graphics and animation using an Intel HD graphics card. 6GB of RAM should be plenty enough though to run the game nicely but the problems in performance that will most likely happen will be a result of the Intel graphics card.

If you do see performance issues when running Battlefield 4 then you can always try to lower the graphic settings in the game as well as running it in windowed mode. That might help the game to run more smoothly.

Team fortress wont work on my laptop?

I need more information on what happens. Does it work but has lag, does it not load up, cant you find any servers.

I do not know what question you asking, so I am going to answer my 3 questions above and hopefully, 1 of them questions and answers are what you are looking for.

1. Lag. Laptops are not really meant for playing games. Some older games will work perfectly. Check the spec of your laptop and check the required spec on the game.

2. If not loading. You will have to reinstall the game. Make sure your operating system is compatible with the game.

3. Cant find any servers/games - Team Fortress is quite old now, there is a new version - Team Fortress 2. This will mean that many, many people will not play Team Fortress anymore.
