  • How do I save games to my Sim Card on phone?

    I have a Samsung Galaxy II. I have about few games on it that I have been playing for over a year. NO money has been invested in these games, but it's taken me a long time to get to the levels I am currently on.

    They are Jurassic Park, Tribez, MIB (which is worthless after Level 28) and a couple more.

    How do I save them to my Sim Card, and when I do get a new phone will the data be easily uploaded to my new phone. I am asking because I really couldn't find any help via the web. And I just don't feel like being on hold forever.

  • L A Noire PC Game activation code?

    l a noire. I love adventure games, Siberia, Blade Runner etc. however. I bout LA Noire online, installed it, and it asked for an activation code. I am a gamer, and play all my games via PC. I know the activiation code was NOT included, with what I bought, because it didn't come with a manual.

    I need one. I have searched online, and it gives these LONGGG ones that are not PC compatible. the code for pc is XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXX. which I have no idea what it is.

  • My computer died, and I need to buy another one, need some advice on lingo and type.?

    My computer has died. It was over 6 years old. It was the top at it’s time, but I pushed it to the limit.

    With Blu Ray Discs, cameras, and my detailed adventure games. I have to get a new one, the technology has grown since then.

    I have heard Cybertron PC’s are exceptional. However, my budget only allows me NO more than $800 including shipping.

    I have been looking around, but find it to be a whole different language than when I bought before.

    My family plays the following types of games, Syberia, L.A Noire, Blade Runner, (oldie but goodie) Sims games. We need the space and the power.

    Reading reviews are a mix of things. So I am putting out there for some help.

    I saw this, but have no idea what the numbers mean. If I could get a quick learning session, much appreciated. Here are the links of what I have looked at. Thanks all for help.

    What is the big difference in these two computers???

  • Unlock System Administrative Password Dell Laptop?

    I bought a Dell Laptop, pretty recent model for $10. Business filed Bankruptcy, all electronics were sold as is. So I took a chance, got a decent printer, monitor and this laptop all for under $40. It was amazing...just some extra for back up etc. I am a 'little' computer savvy, but this is something I can't figure out.

    The catch is this. I have played around with it, but can't get past or unlock the System Administrator Password.

    I did the F11 to boot into Recorvery.was able to change the internal passwords.F10 no help.

    I can't get past a screen that says System administrator log in and password.

    Its a Windows Xp Dell Laptop.

    I have 'heard', but this was years ago, you can put in CD's that have programs on them, which I have for Dell, but not sure which one to use. I have the ones that say, Operating System, and the majority say 'these are already installed on your computer". Is there a way to get it back to the Original Default Factory Settings. Or just get into the computer itself.

  • Gaming Computer Desktop?

    Gaming Computer Desk top.

    I am doing research on a powerful gaming computer that can handle such Adventure games as Syberia I and II. La Noire. The old original Bladerunner , Crystal Key etc.. Our family enjoys high quality adventure point click games, that have outstanding graphics. We were die hard The Sims players too, but that is on another desktop entirely.

    It also needs to have Windows 7. A graphics card that is listed and also powerful. I have checked out Cybertron, but found it has issues. Thought of building one at Walmart, but not sure of what all to list. Gone on Cnet…die hard gamers know what I am talking about. I have a Dell Flat screen monitor that is hooked up to my old one. Wondering if its UNIVERSAL. I think all monitors are, but now a days, I am not 100% positve.

    The computer I have, WAS top of the line 6 years ago. Now it just can’t handle the graphics, and it just DIED…soooo….suggestions would help.

    If you can provide links that would be wonderful.

  • tribez android game help?

    I was a huge fan in the beginning of this game. I have been playing for 2 months. Have over 2 million in gold. Even bought some gems for expansion.

    Now I am completely stuck, due to I don't have marble and sand. Can't build the circus on the 1st Island, can't get upgrades on anything.

    I just play it now to accumulate gold. I have all the islands except the Alien one...but they all require Sand and Marble to complete anything.

    Its more can'ts, and its just frustrating. Is there anyway to get marble and sand. I have all the buildings, but can't produce. Can't upgrade the warehouses, have read all kinds of crap online...I don't see how anyone advances in this game...

  • My daughters and I adopted a 7 year old male Chihuahua?

    He is one of the sweetest dogs. He was traumatized, and we can tell he was evidently shifted around a lot. We feel he his orignial owner must have died. We found out thru his chip, that he had hip surgery. Someone loved him very much to have paid for him to have that. We have had him a solid year. We don't feel he was beaten, or abused. Due to he has no broken bones, or scars. But, he does scour the floor constantly for food. Even though we feed him, a high quality food "Wellness brand, with snacks'.He is loved. But....he has a major issue. Within this year he has NEVER ONCE gone a week without pooping or peein in his crate or somewhere in the house. We have tried everything.

    its a LIE, that they don't go where they sleep or eat, he has gone in my daughter's beds, on the floor, by the cloests, by the doors, on his blankets, in his crates, we downsized to a smaller craze, he has gone in there, we stopped giving him water after a certain time, so its not that, we feed him Wellness food, so its NOT the food. We only give him bottled water so its not the water. So its not any of that. We don't BEAT him when he has accidents. WE ahve done everything but send him back. The pea pads don't work. The threats don't work. We have caught him in the act, We have him on a schedule, we all have a work schedule, and he wil do great for about 4 days, and then wam he will pee and poop, EVEN after going on a walk. Its crazy.

    My daughters, who are not youngsters, they are 18 and 21. They love the dog. I am ready to send him to the shelter, I do not want my house to smell like ammonia. Its just to much work to come in from a long hard days work to clean up a crate,and shampoo a dog who is swimmin in poop. We have taken him to the VET..its nothing wrong with him No diseases. He is just old.

    Plus, Winter is coming, and this is getting way out of hand.

    We beleive the last owners just didn't TELL us this is why they got rid of him, and the owner before him the same...and we understand now too. But, he is really a sweet dog. No biting, lovaable, doesn't paly with ANY toys, loves to be held. Just...pees and poops.

    Next we are going to try the diapers, but they don't hold poop...or do they.

  • I accidently unplugged my desktop computer?

    It was working perfectly fine before I accidently unplugged it. Now, its going thru a constant loop of the black screen, sorry for the inconvenince, and it gives me the options of starting it in various modes.

    safe mode, safe mode with networking, last known configuration, safe mode with command prompt, and start windows normally.

    i have tried all of these...but it will go thru a loop, show me the windows xp logo, look like its going to load, then do a flash page, then go right back to the same page i mentioned first. this has been going on for about an hour.

    All i did was accidently unplug it...THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE.

    I tried the F10, nothing, tried the f12 nothing. I don't understand the prompts.

    I have this laptop, but all of my main work is on my desktop. I need help. I cant even get to the start button to go to system restore. tried ctrl alt delete,nothing.

    its stuck in this loop....and its a 30 second countdown...

  • Getting rid of cable, read below for questions?

    I am sick of paying high prices for cable. I am simplifying my life as much as possible. Due to the economy is not going in many peoples favor. And like most, I have to start saving all the money I can.

    Called the cable company, and they told me, due to me having older tv’s, I need the converter boxes, and even if I downgrade my cable to ‘basic’ I still would have to pay $8 a piece for the boxes, and also the big box cost extra too. So it really wouldn’t be a savings.

    I have had a few people tell me to buy a converter box for really cheap, maybe $20, and I can just get signals from ‘where ever’. The sky I guess.

    I also can do streaming from Netflix via the WII system I have. And watch television programs an movies via the Wii on my television. I have no idea how to connect this up, but will find out somehow.

    My question are, will I need a converter box for just ONE of my tv’s or ALL of them? Is there an online service where my daughter can watch Disney channels? I know via You tube, you can watch everything imaginable, but its only in 8 minute intervals.

    What are the best online free sites to watch programs of all kinds?

    I have really cheap, fast internet. And I just need help in adjusting to not having cable. I am sick of the high prices, and it doesn’t work half the time anyway. And a dish is out of the question. My neighbor has one, and he is constantly complaining about it. And when it snows, he has to get up there in the dead of winter and clean it off. NO way…

    Also, yes I have older tv’s, and they work just fine. I refuse to go out and spend a small fortune on an digital tv which starting cost is my mortgage.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • How to get my chihuahua to play with toys.?

    We just adopted a Chihuahua who we are estimating is about 3 years old. (he has a vet visit in a couple days, so we will know better his age then)

    I have a couple questions.

    He is loving, house trained, still working on the crate, a really sweet lil guy.

    My question is, he doesn’t like any toys at all. And we have small ones that are his size.

    What is the best way to get him to play with his toys? we have soft ones, squeakers…so we have a variety.

    The next question is, how can we get him to sleep thru the night. He wakes up like every 2 hours, and we know he is not a puppy. He doesnt' make a mess, chew or anything. he just wakes up and wines...is this normal behaviour?

    We do NOT put him in the crate while we are home, only when we are gone. We tried that once while we were home, and he barked for 3 hours straight.

    There are so many sites on this breed of dog, but some straight answers is what I need.
