I have an Envy 14 Beats HP computer (2010). It's been working just fine for me until two weeks ago, when I downloaded a Google app for Chrome that switched the graphics to negative (black and white) viewing. After using that app (and deleting it) everything is messed up. My windows have taken on a different, less appealing basic design, and especially Word---this REALLY irks me---has changed so much that it looks like it came from a '98 PC. What happened? How can I change things back to how they were?!?! I tried messing around with control panel's display settings but NOTHING seems to work. Please help!

Thanks!

Hello Everyone!

I am a senior aspiring to become a neurologist someday.... To get there, I plan on applying (and getting into!!) to top undergraduate schools, including Dartmouth, Swarthmore, and Cornell U.

I have a 3.89 unweighted GPA, 2100 SAT score, and only one SAT Subject test taken.... This is where I worry, as I see online that Dartmouth and many of the other private schools recommend taking at least two Subject SAT's. Does anyone know if the two SAT subject tests are required for applying?? Right now, it is too late for me to take another Subject SAT test, so I am stuck!

Any information would help me out. Thanks for looking!

I have a SD/MMC 2GB chip for my camera. I took some videos a while ago, and when inside the camera, I can view them, but when I plug the chip in the computer, the computer can't find them. I know for sure the videos are not in the camera's own built-in memory.... and if it helps, there is another folder now called "Private" that was never on the chip until the videos came out. It looks like a bunch of ghost folders (I can't open them).

Would anyone have a clue what is going on here and HOW I can fix it to find, download, and enjoy my movies???

Thanks so much in advance, and have a happy holidays!!

So I was wondering, if, during the Jewish holiday Hanukkah, Jews hand out gifts (or gelt) to children each night on the eight days of the holiday. Also, do the gifts get better/larger/more expensive as the days progress?

Thanks!

Happy Holidays!!!

Which knot would be the best to tie to hold the drawstring tight on a sleeping bag where I can easily loosen it when I need to. I usually do a pretzel knot, but over time and use, the knot becomes tighter and even more impossible to undo. So does anyone have a good know for this situation?

Thanks!

Hey everyone! So I'm creating a photography club for my school.... the thing is, someone else submitted their forms for one before me, but the counselor said if I had different motives and title, I could still go through with mine. So what is a good title for a photography club besides Photography Club?

I'm thinking:

Pictorial Club

Exploring Photography

Photo Club

Ideas!!! Thanks!! :)

I am reading The Age of Innocence and have to write an essay based on the social themes and how they relate to present-day social life.... I chose duty, loyalty, tradition, and order as the primitive and necessary forms of an acceptable social life..... so..... what do you think duty means to society?? :)

I hate it when I walk through the metal detector and my abs of steel set it off.

Star if you like!

Hello!!

I'm entering my Junior Year in high school with a full course load ahead of me (4 APs, 1 Honors, 2nd year Theater). I want to know if I would have a good chance of getting into certain Ivy League schools, such as Brown, Princeton, and Stanford with the qualities and skills I have to offer now:

With divorced parents, I spend half of each week at each house. At my dad's I babysit my 4 yr old stepbrother, help my stepmother run her massage wellness business, and do my share of chores around the house. It's very much the same at my mom's except I'm the only child within the house.

I LOVE so many things-- I seriously do not have the will to discontinue any activity/hobby I do:

Lacrosse

Baking

Improvisational Piano

Volunteering

Eating! (a true epicurean indeed!)

Ballroom Dancing

Photography!

Inventing

Academically:

Latin Scholar (passed AP exam)

4.0 GPA

Independent Studies courses (includes History and English)

2nd year Theatre

I am a member and Treasurer of the Interact Club at my school and have participated/organized many events

I am a Varsity Lacrosse player and am planning to pursue the sport in college

I have interest in pursuing the following majors in college:

Medicine, particularly neuroscience (I have internship experience and am absolutely fascinated with human thinking)

Education (I love spending time with kids and helping them understand/comprehend the arts and works of life)

Unfortunately, besides honor roll, music composition awards, and business experience, I have intense stage-fright when it comes to public-speaking-- even in front of classrooms. I hate debate projects, for, even with the extensive research and time I put into studying and preparing for the big day, I break down at my very turn with the typical symptoms (sweaty palms, unstable limbs, aching head), plus I straight-out can't think straight!

On the plus, I have people who are willing to write Letters of Recommenation for me, even a Stanford alumni.

All this put together creates me. Do you think I have a chance of receiving the fat envelope from any of the Ivy Leagues?

Thank you so much,

Emily

Hi, I have several important meetings to make with people across the country. Would anyone know what the best web conferencing program is out there? I am looking for an affordable, reliable, speedy program that includes great sound and video quality. Something like Skype, but a little more upper-class.

Thanks so much!

What's wrong with my computer? I mean I just got it this year-- it's an envy 14.... is there an explanation and solution to this problem? I've run the Windows Task Manager, and there's nothing going on... so hahaa.

I'm an amateur photographer, but I love what I do. I pursue photography for a hobby to escape from my hectic lifestyle. I was just interested in how others, who are passionate about it, view photography. How are you moved by it? Why do you do it? What type of photography do you do? What does photography mean to you??

Just curious as to how others view it :) Thanks for sharing :)

The equation of the hyperbola is (y^2)/5 - ((x+20)^2)/24=1

how would you find the equation for its asymptote?

Thanks!

So I love my new Envy no doubt, just got it a couple months ago. But I've been having problems with the mousepad. Sometimes the Synaptics don't seem to work. The mousepad IS on, and when I try to scroll with my two fingers, it doesn't work after a couple hours of computer work. Does anybody know why and how to fix this? Thanks!

I need a good, worthy, free proxy/web that will allow me to access webs like Facebook, YouTube, etc.... and ones that will work for free. Thanks for you input.

"Anyone who considers him/herself an idiot, please stand up," said the sarcastic teacher.

There was a pause. No one stood.

Then, finally one student stood up.

"Now why do you consder yourself an idiot?" said the teacher with a sneer.

"I don't. I just felt bad that you were the only one standing up," said the student.

sorry haha... senior moment. :)

Hey, you know under advanced that you can gain the albums and names of unidentified music? Well, I have a CD with music I put onto it from another computer to transfer them to my computer... and they don't have their names (I forgot their names too...). I tried the name thing with iTunes and it said it couldn't b/c "CDDB info" wasn't available... what does that mean and do you know a way how I can get it available? Thanks a ton :)
