    How do I do ALT codes on my laptop?

    If you're already familiar with the ALT codes and the FN+ALT doesn't work, just buy a USB number pad. They're cheap. http://www.staples.com/numeric+keypad/directory_numeric+keypad...

    If your college friend want you help him to cheat on a take home quiz,

    Here's an old idea: a friend wouldn't ask you to help him cheat. A real friend would know you, would have some idea of what your values are and wouldn't even ask. You might think he's your friend but he thinks you're his passport to a higher grade. Friends don't take advantage of one another...

    a DVD disappeared in my disk drive where did it go?

    Laptops don't have much room inside but a disk is nice and thin. Desktops, on the other hand, have plenty of room. If your sister didn't "lock" the disk down onto the spindle, when the drive started spinning, it probably flung the disk inside the computer. I wouldn't try to get it out of a...

    How to burn MP4 to DVD?

    You don't say whether you just want to burn a data disk (simply burn the file onto a disk) or if you want to make a playable DVD with a menu that will automatically start playing. If you want to make a playable DVD, one possibility is to use a DVD authoring program that you can load the mp4...

    I Need help with my DVD. Will it burn?

    First, when you burned a DVD using Media Player, you made a Data DVD which means it won't play automatically. You can put it into a computer (and some DVD players), open it and double click on the file to run it. Second, it's too bad you can't tell us what the error message said when you...

    Windows Movie Maker/DVD maker question?

    Any video longer than 10 minutes is a lot of work for computers that aren't specifically set up to make videos. Most computers have 4 Gb of RAM, 500 Gb HD and a cheap, slow processor. They work great for most of the things we do with computers but over time the HD has less free space and more...

    Windows movie maker wont publish with divx filters?

    If you still have the original videos, convert them to WMV files. Even AVI files will work as long as they have nothing to do with DivX or Xvid. Both of these give all versions of WMM the fits. If you don't have the original clips anymore, try converting the DivX files to WMV.

    After effects and xvid render to add to movie maker ??

    Movie Maker (and usually Media Player) gags on Xvid and VidX encoded videos. You've got to recode using another codec. Try one of the wmv codecs. I've had H264 AVIs work in the Vista version.

    How do I fully get rid of DivX and PC Cleaner?

    Before you uninstall using Start>Control Panel>Programs and Features always look in the Start>All Programs list for the software you want to uninstall and, if it's a folder (and not just an icon), open it and see if it has uninstallers. Revo uninstaller is one of the best. I always prefer to...

    I just stole a cigarette from my parents..is that bad?

    That's bad x 2. "Stealing from parents" which gives them a reason not to trust you and "cigarette" which moves you right down into the realm of low-class-don't-know-no-better.

    Why does every xVid AVI conversion fail in FlashBack Express?

    Vista Home Premium, 32 bits. I downloaded and installed the free Flashback Express screen capture software 2 days ago. I like the program's ease of use and functionality but it only offers 5 codecs to save the screen capture to AVI: DivX 5.1.1, 2 intel codecs, Microsoft Video1, Cinepak by...

    Whenever you download anything that you're going to install in your machine, right click on its Zip or rar file or on it's icon if it self-installs, and run virus and spyware scans. WOT (Web of Trust) also provides a handy (and free) tool to check websites for hidden malware. You can also...

    Geez, where have you been holed up? When I first began traveling outside the U.S. in the late 1960's I made up a Canadian biography for myself "just in case" I was asked about my nationality. Americans have always had a not-so-nice reputation around the world. If someone asks, instead of...
