It will stay on for a few seconds and then go black again. If you hold a light to it you can see that it is running fine and you can even make out a faint webpage. Long story short after trying everything I turned to brightness down to a very low setting and it will stay on now but is very hard

Hey, I was looking around on MySpace to see if they had a particular song with a player that you see on many different MySpaces, but they did not have one for the song I wanted. I was wondering if anyone had the proper code for a music player. I do have the song I want and have the capability to upload it, but I just need the code for it. If you can help at all I'd really appreciate it. Example on the top right of this MySpace (but I just want a one song player): [url="http://www.myspace

Whats The Safest Download Option?
In your opinion, wht is the safest way to share files? BitTorrent or P2P file sharers? In my opinion BitTorrent is safer, here is why I think this.

Running Win7 Programs From An Xp Hdd
I recently downloaded the Windows 7 RC, and I had a hard drive set aside for it. It's my smallest one, being only 150GB, which would normally be fine for my OS uses. The problem I've hit is that my program folder is huge, as are all my various document folders, so a simple file transfer won't work. What I'd like to do is run my programs off of my main drive, which runs XP, and my storage drive. Just trying to run the programs doesn't seem to work, and I'd really hate to h
