  • 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac Key Problem?

    I have a 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac with 142K miles on it. I only have ONE key. The problem is the drivers door lock is acting up and being very difficult to use to unlock the truck. Passenger side and ignition locks still work for now. If I change out all four locks (Ignition, 2 door locks and the tailgate (hardly ever used and might not bother with) ) About how much would a locksmith charge to program two keys for the ignition switch? And how much to key all locks alike?

  • What year did gold Cadillac keys come out?

    Specifically for a 73 Eldorado, What year did the gold tone keys come out and what was the emblem on them? Was it just the Cadillac emblem or the Cadillac with the crest emblem on the keys. We are looking for authentic keys for a gift and want to get the right ones if we can.

  • Convert a 7 speed to 8 speed on a 700 wheel?

    I have a older Linear Recumbent Bike with a rear 700 wheel and a 7 speed gear cluster. Can I change it to a 8 speed? Do I have a wide enough hub? I know I need a 8 speed derailleur and I already have a 8 speed grip shifter.

  • Gaming Video Card needed for a slim Dell 531s case?

    Looking for a PCI Express 16x Low profile video card for my Dell Inspiron 531s (slim/narrow case). The game we just bought is requiring a NVIDIA 8800 with 512 MB ram OR a ATI Radeon HD 2900 with 512 MB ram. All I have is the installed video graphics on the Motherboard. One more thing is I would like it to have a VGA port and not just DVI ports.

    I don't know video cards that well so if there are newer cards that are NOT expensive, we are taking cheap, please tell me the models and info so I can get it local (Wally World or Ebay).

    Again it has to be a Low Profile card!!!

    The game is Sonic Generations for the PC.

  • Can you convert a 6 speed rear cassette to 8 or 9 speed?

    I am buying a used Recumbent bike that is currently a 18 speed (3 front and 6 rear gear wheels). I understand that I would have to change the Cassette and the Derailleur but do I need to change the chain also?

    And the biggest question is do you think it will fit in the rear frame mount for the back wheel?

    Extra info: this bike manufacturer is no longer in business so I can not ask them. The bike is from the 1990's.

  • A/C Controls Problem?

    I have a 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac 4.6L V6 with working A/C (that is the compressor works and it blows cold air). The problem is that it is stuck blowing the air only out of the defog vents, and not the main vents. Also, the Max A/C is not functioning as it did before Just Regular A/C. Temp setting is also functional.

    It has 115K miles on it, and is well cared for.

    Could it be the right knob that directs where to blow the A/C or the duct work under the hood (which one is the problem)?

  • Windows 7 Theme Question - Themes not changing?

    Before I go any further I do know how to change the desktop theme in Windows 7. I have Win 7 Ultimate at home. I have a custom theme setup on that computer.

    I am using Windows 7 Professional on a networked computer at work. I have researched this problem and have come across no workable solution.

    The themes are not grayed out and a custom theme is the default theme setup associated with the organization that I work for. This is a networked computer and I DO NOT have administrative sign on ability. I cannot sellect a different theme.

    So with all this being said does anyone know how to allow changing of the desktop theme?

    Please spare your time by telling me that I need to right click on the desktop (or get there some other way) and left click on "Personalize". And then click on the theme I want to use, it does not work, that is my problem!!!

  • Dell Latitude CPi a400xt hard drive upgrade from a 6 GB to a 80 GB not reconized it bios.?

    I am upgrading a older 1999 Dell Latitude CPi model A400XT. Specs are: 400 MHz Intel Processor, 64 MB ram running XP Pro. (Service Tag VR4HH) with a 6 GB IDE hard Drive and I bought a 80 WD IDE hard drive. It is not being recognized in bios, in fact after I put in the new hard drive nothing is resettable. I have a few questions: 1. Is the 80 GB to big. 2. Can and how (at what site exactly) can I upgrade the bios? Would that fix it? 3. If I made the 80 GB an external would it be recognized?

    I bought the Hard Drive on Craigslist so it is not returnable.

    This is my Sister in Laws laptop and I am upgrading it for her.

    Thanks for any help you can offer.
