What would be a good default username for a PC resetup.?
I work at a tech company and usually they put "Preferred Customer" as the default username for a Fresh resetup pc to sell to someone. I'm trying to think of a better shorter name to use as the default. I've thought of "User", "Admin", "Owner" "Dell,HP......(Name of PC manufacturer)". I don't really feel like these are professional or would make any sense to the buyer. Anyone got any better names?
3 AnswersOther - Hardware4 years agoWhich Inverter do I need to get?
http://www.amazon.com/outlets-inverter-adapter-not...
This one was the one I was going to get until I read one of the answered questions at the bottom. When asked why their laptop was making weird noises, the answer was b/c this wasn't a pure sine wave inverter and that over time it will destroy your laptop. I don't need my laptop to be destroyed by an inverter!!! The description says for laptops and it is the #1 best seller for inverters on amazon.

I found this one as an alternative but I still can't figure out what sine wave technology it uses. I like this one b/c it puts out more wattage than the BASTEK, but I'm still really confused.
In the future I plan to get a monitor or tv with HDMI so I can play my PS3 or so my friend could play his XBOX ONE in the car (not at the same time of course). So thats why I'm interested in a little more wattage, but I have calculated that the 300W one would be fine. So I just need to know which one won't blow up my laptop or our consoles and a TV.
Thanks...
1 AnswerLaptops & Notebooks6 years agoHow to remap a mouse (buttons)?
The scroll button on my mouse is way to sensitive and there is no software setting to fix it, it's just the way the mouse was made. I need some software to disable forever the scroll button and remap it to the button beside the left click (see pic). Anyone know of some software that can do that.
P.S. the mouse has no make or model #.

I have 2 processors picked out and i need to know which one will be the best. don't answer if all you are going to do is tell me how outdated my system is.

2 AnswersOther - Hardware7 years agoCan dual core processors only use one core?
I know this may seem like a stupid question but i have an older PC and it won't run with 2 cores. I had already picked out the perfect processor but it was dual core and then I found out that it wouldn't run with my PC. So I was wondering if my PC would limit itself to use only one core (half) of the processor. The PC is a Dell Dimension 4700.

1 AnswerDesktops7 years agoMy Icons Keep Disappearing?
I am the main user on my Dell Inspiron N5040 running Windows 7. Occasionally my mom gets on her account to do stuff. She doesn't log off so I check her account for anything unwanted. and I find that some of my application icon shortcuts are on her desktop. Since she won't use them I delete them. But when I go back to my account, the icons that I deleted from her account have been deleted from mine.
I thought user accounts were like having different PCs inside one PC. this is very aggravating, how do I fix this?
1 AnswerSoftware8 years agoWhy is my keyboard not working?
I have a Dell Inspiron N5040 laptop and the keyboard suddenly stopped working. When I go into control panel, it says that the keyboard is present and is hooked up to the PC. I tried to update the driver and it is up to date, I uninstalled and then re-installed the driver and even put the driver and utility CD that came with the computer in it and still nothing. I have also downloaded driver scanners from the internet and they all say the drivers to all installed keyboards are installed and up-to-date. I've run out of options and need help.
