  • Should I be concerned about my Scoliosis?

    I am currently 18 years old, and I have the whole "S" shaped thing going on, and recently I have been having, what I think, is nerve pain on the back of my neck. I don't like how I look, its certainly not attractive. I have been sitting in a computer chair for a good amount of my life, and I definitely have not been using good posture. I just want to know if there is a way to fix this, or a surgery or something that isn't life threatening. I have a heart condition too, just throwing that out there...

  • Friends HP Monitor only working at my house?

    Hello, I am having a bit of a strange event going on....my friend has an HP VS15 Monitor that only seems to work when it is plugged into the wall at my house, and no other home so far. He has tried it at two other homes that are about a 40 minute drive away from each other, and still the monitor refuses to even turn on unless it is plugged into the wall at my house. I have the same model monitor so I took it over to his house and it didn't work either...so its not his monitor...I have tried about 10 different power cables and VGA cords and still no change. The outlets that he is plugging into do work and I have used other devices plugged into them fine, just this certain type of monitor. We tried another monitor and it worked fine, just this model doesn't. Anyone have any ideas?

  • Cannon Camera video exporting help.?

    Hi, I have a Cannon camera with a DV output. I had a laptop with a 1394 connection or whatever it is called that looks just like the one on the camera and I had a cord that connected them both, my laptop recently quit working and now all I have is a desktop, that is pretty good. Unfortunately I do not have a DV input on my desktop. I went to radioshack and they told me that I could get a PCI

    card that would have the right connection, I was browsing the internet but was unable to find what I am looking for. Here is a picture of the camera connection if you are wondering what type it is: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/443/201209161...

    If you could tell me what I can do to transfer video from my camera to my desktop, that would be wonderful, thank you.

  • My laptop lost all sound?

    My Toshiba laptop suddenly lost sound one day, I am not a computer dummy and know a good amount, but this has stumped me. It is showing no problem with the installed driver, and when sound should be coming out of the computer, the green bar moves to show sound. Headphones don't even work. I did a complete factory re-install, and that did not fix the problem. Can someone help me

    please?

  • Can't Connect to Xbox Live Anymore?

    I am using my Laptop to connect my Xbox 360 to the internet through an Ethernet cable. I had my xbox on and I connected my other laptop to the network. My other laptop said that there is a problem with the IP Adress. About 2 minutes after my other laptop said that, my Xbox said Disconnected From Xbox Live. And when I try to connect my xbox back to xbox live, it says there is a problem with your IP Adress. I can use the internet on my laptop that my xbox is connected to, but my xbox cant get to the internet. I tried disabling and re-inabling Local Area Connection and it still doesn't work! I think I have to enable sharing or something like I did before but thats not working either.
