  • What causes two beeps on my Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop?

    When the power button is pushed, my 8200 looks as if it is booting up, then two beeps and it stops booting, and shuts down. What do the two beeps mean? Memory? Boot disk, Keyboard?

  • Symptoms after a stroke, Left side paralyzed, but better now except my left arm feels as if it is overworked,?

    and tired from doing nothing. It often rests in my lap rather than doing something. The stiffness and tired feeling is all the time for 2 years. Moving my sleep position affects the way the arm feels. I feel as if I have no strength. Attempts at excersize have not helpped. Physical Therapy helpped for a while, but improvements stopped after 6 months. I can walk unaided, but with difficulty as my left leg does not resond very well either. I can use my left arm for some things, but not reaching or holding onto things for very long. When reaching, the arm waivers all about. I cannot hold keyboard keys very long as the fingers begin to wiggle, then jump off the keys. My slow walk is often a problem when the left leg will not come off the ground as if it was stuck there with glue. This messes with my momentum and I nearly fall due to the errant left foot. Please no answer if you do not have a direct answer to my question. I hope for a neurologist to answer.

  • Any suggestions for acid reflux often also called GERD?

    I have researched several websites, but no permanent solutions have appeared. One suggestion using a certain brand of apple worked for me, although I used an apple available in a local market. I still do not know the brand the website eluded to, as I did not pay for the fee to get the information. Being on limited income sucks.

  • Where is it defined who or what an infidel is?

    Where is it defined that Americans and others are infidels ?

    The Koran is available on the web. My review has not found a reference to describe who or what an infidel is, much less that it is American or Brittish. Would someone please enlighten me where it is written for all to see? If the terorist activities are based upon the Muslim beliefs, where are the defining factors?

    In Christian beliefs, killing ones self can be considered murder in God's eyes, so a person with a bomb intentionally setting it off would be an act of murder rather than the great sacrifice for the Muslim community. For those who believe in Christianity, the poor souls who kill themselves to harm or kill others are damning themselves having commited a crime against God.

    Would someone please explain why the Muslim faith believes in such travisty?

    I believe in understanding the facts before reaching a conclusion. I truely would like to know and understand the reasoning behind all the killing.

  • Physics question, please no wise crack answers. I will delete them.?

    GIVEN:

    1. Swimming pool not quite full of water, small boat, several objects in the boat, a heavy, large piece of wood; a beach ball full of air, a bowling ball, and a piece of styrofoam (any size)

    QUESTION - PLEASE ANSWER ALL PARTS.

    When each item is removed from the boat:

    1. What happens to the position of the boat in the water (the level of the water on the outside of the boat) as each item is removed from the boat and cast into or onto the water?

    2. What happens to the level of the water at the edge of the pool? Answer must include an answer for all items.

    I have an answer I thought was good, but as I have posed the question to my brilliant daughters, I have been told my answer was incomplete.

    Math is not necessary to answer the questions so size and weight are generalized. The larger you consider the item or it's weight, the more correct your answer could be, within reasonable limits. I do not need or expect math equasions. Explainations will be sufficient.

  • An economical way to separate hydrogen from water and use it to power a generator? (Univ of CO at Boulder,CO?

    University Of Colorado at Boulder, Colorado, USA, had a project using hydrogen to power a generator using air conditioning compressors as an engine and hydrogen as the power source. No one monitors the email address listed 2 years ago. I am interested in providing power to locations where power is not currently available due to distance or location. I propose the program would be funded by the Philippine govenment. My services nearly free. I would like to solve this as my contribution to society in my retirement years.
