Laptops

I assume you are on a windows platform. 1. Bring up your menu for the computer 2. Go control panel 3. Open that 4. Find personalize computer icon 5. Open that 6. You will now see a menu showing items to personalize your computer 7. Choose appearance or colors/background 8. Open this 9. At this point you can customize the font, colors, screensaver, and background of your computer. 10. When done save and exit.

Apple's iMac, Macbook, and Macbook Pro lines of computers do have built-in iSight webcams, which have been praised for their image quality. The Mac mini, Mac Pro, and XServes do not have iSights, although it has been rumored that the Cinema Displays (which Apple recommends for these machines) will be updated to add iSights. Not all. a few years ago, Apple switched to Intel CPUs. Since then, all iMacs, Macbooks, and Macbook Pros come with built in iSight cameras.

At least 12 hours if you've just bought it.

You can use the laptop while it is charging.

I have had laptops connected to their charging device plugged into a wall socket for weeks. Some but not all of them have had problems with their batteries loosing capacity. I suspect the deterioration is due to insufficient "intelligence" in the charger.

First time charging of modern Lithium ion batteries: often at least 12 hours (see the manual).

Subsequent charging cycles: Check the laptops battery status with software (usually installed on a laptop).

Older Nickel Cadmium batteries are a much different story: The NiCd battery should be regularly depleted (and not too slowly either) and recharged fully or a "memory" effect will come into play whereby the battery capacity is drastically reduced.

Sometimes about 3 to 5 hours. Some suggest the best way is to have two batteries used alternately to extend battery life.

Sometimes, there is an indicator that lights up (green) when the battery is at full charge.

12-23 hours is usually a good time frame for the first charge. Make sure you "exercise" the battery by draining and recharging it a few times. Now laptop batteries are almost always Li-ion rechargeable batteries (Li-ion batteries are not susceptible of being over charged if the voltage and current are correct), What's more, most modern laptops have the intelligence to control the charge cycle and stop the charging after the battery has been fully charged.

Click on the Windows Logo/Start button and type a doc/anything into the box that says, "Search programs and files". Then, a list will come up to show you all the areas that hold your request - mail/docs/calendar, etc.

On a budget, dont pay more than £500. For a REALLY nice one, you will pay 1k-2k.

Generally you should use compressed air to clean out the dust that builds up on the inside of a computer. Brushes and cloths may generate static, which can cause damage to components inside a computer. Care should be taken to avoid freezing components which can cause condensation.

Holding charge depends on the kind of battery that is used, and it also depends on the applications that are running

*Take note: network adapters (used in internet) uses a lot of power

see detailed specs of your computer from www.support.toshiba.com

normal standby hours: 2 - 3 hours (again this is on "standby" mode only) for 6-cell battery

4 - 6 hours standby for 9-cell battery pack

hope this helps

The first method is by getting a PCTV USB device. The second method is by using satellite tv tuner. A PCTV device, when plugged in to laptops and connected to a broadband wired connection, enables the laptop computer to stream live television channels. Satellite tv software, on the other hand, is a software that enables your desktop or laptop computer to do get live tv on laptop with a broadband wired or wireless connection. Both methods have a major advantage over conventional satellite tv programme packages, monthly subscription. There is no monthly payment needed for using PCTV or satellite television software to stream live tv on laptop. You only pay a one-time fee for the purchase hardware or software.

Wal-Mart does sell printers for desktop and laptop computers. Almost any printer can be hooked up and programmed to work on a laptop computer.Cannon, HP, Kodak and Lexmark are the top brands to check out for laptop compatible printers.

Look at the power supply or back of any semi-sophisticated electronics device you want to know the kilowatt usage of. It should have one number on it with an "A" next to the number. This is the amperage. Multiply that by 120 (Alternating Current) and you have the wattage. Divide by 1000. After that, as you may be able to figure yourself already, if you use that device for one hour then you will be said to be using it for that many kilowatts. Example: I have a 1.5A laptop. (it may even say 1,5A) Multiply by 120. 180 watts Divide by 1000. 0.18 kilowatts If I use my laptop for one hour, it will consume at the most 0.18 kilowatts. It may be less because you do not use 100% of your CPU every second, and there may be power-saving features such as auto-off screen, modem or network card working. The best energy saving feature you can use is the one that turns off the screen, but keep in mind if you use anything like DSL/Cable that device usually has its own power supply and it can be more than a laptop. Also, if you want to do the math to find the cost of running your laptop for one straight month, multiply the kilowatts by 730.5 and then by your local power company's charge for each kilowatt-hour. Mine charges $0.1412, so the laptop would cost $18.56 if it was used at full capacity for approximately 30 days, and just multiplying again by 12 months gives me a yearly maximum of $222.80. You could probably reach that number if you turned off all power-saving features, ran a program that can hammer the processor like a math program using WiFi and/or networking simultaneously. If you have free time to burn, I recommend going to SETI@home and have your computer join the search for possible life beyond our world.

Well, for one thing, laptops are basically computers. They can compute like, what I'm guessing you're referring to, desktop computers. However, Desktop computers are actually cheaper to own that laptops, if you look at a comparison of price to performance. So in a sense, you get more bang for your buck with desktop computers as compared to laptops. If you're looking at matinence costs, etc., then it would still be cheaper to own a desktop pc. Laptops have a much higher chance of getting broken that desktop computers, and of course, data theft is a large problem with laptops if you accidentally leave yours in an airport or other public place.

Ounces

you go into computer were you see local disk then point to a blank aera in the window box the right click proprieties and the you can tell what OP you have

Windows - Go to the bottom right-hand corner. You will find an icon that looks like a speaker. Click that and change to your desired volume.

Chromebooks - If you look at your keyboard, near the top right, there will be 3 buttons that will modify the volume

if you have the g56 hp, then it does not. you have the software (youcam) but you dont have the hardware

It is on the motherboard on the bottom side of where the CD drive is located, on the right to the edge closest to the user. You have to strip down the computer. It is a small wafer about the size of the tip of your little finger. There are two prongs from the battery to the motherborad. It is covered by a translucent piece of yellow plastic stick on. It is soilderd to the board.

I removed the battery, ran two wire into the modem bay, and reattached it there for ease of maintenance. I can access it easily from there as needed.

If your question is prompted by a need to reset the bios password, battery removal is not the solution.

You can find your laptop IP address for Windows XP by following the below steps:

1.Start->Run->cmd prompt

2.In that,just type ipconfig and then click enter

For example: It will show ip address like 74.110.208.65 .

If you want to check your network IP address that is provided by your ISP,

visit Ip-details.com .

If your Asus laptop is running a modern version of Microsoft Windows (Windows XP or greater), simply open your start menu (or hit the windows key on your keyboard) and click the button that says control panel; which should be on the right side of then start menu.

The 15z has an Intel videocard, which is NOT listed as compatible with The Sims 3.

However it may still run- expect VERY slow performance, bugs, crashing, glitches, missing textures, 'black sims', white spaces, and other uglyness.

Not yet, the Rolltop is still at a stage of research, conception and development according to the developers.

It depends on what you plan to use it for. Assuming you hold everything else constant (processor, RAM, video card, etc.) a smaller screen will net you lighter weight and longer battery life (less screen area = less power needed to fuel it), but it will cost you screen size (obviously). If you plan to be very mobile with the laptop (taking it to classes, coffee shops, meetings, etc.) then the lighter weight and longer battery life will probably be worth more to you than the extra screen space. If the laptop is likely to spend most of it's time in the same location and plugged in, then you won't notice the loss of battery life and added weight, but you will appreciate the extra screen area when (which is especially nice if you plan to do any serious amount of gaming/video watching with it).

In short, if you plan to use it on the go, go for the 14". If you plan to use it mostly as a desktop replacement, go for the 15".
