I would like to get your recommendations for an inexpensive video monitoring system. My car was vandalised 2x last week. I do not want to rely on the landlord (doubt anything will be done). So a set-up/cams recording system recommendations is appreciated. I was hoping to set up a cam at my...

thanks for the input guys!

will this be suitable for my needs: it is HP stream mini desktop hp mini desktop...

yes it is. It actually happened while the computer was on/idle. I went back to it and it would not respond, so I pressed the power button to switch it off. When I tried to start the PC...the symptoms I described happened. did something get fried or just conked up....what could it be. in...

i tried a different power supply from another pc, and still the same situation : power button not "ON", fans on.... the other symptoms: the keyboard does not respond the monitor "wakes up" but goes to sleep....before it does I see something on the screen saying not receiving signal??? hp...

Hello, My pc power button is black and won't light up. I noticed a lot of dust in the air "vents" and cleaned this up. When I press the power button, the fans to the MOBO, power supply and case start. There is a green light on the back of the power supply that is on. But the power on button is...

I agree with the posters suggesting Linux OS's. If you decide to squeeze the last remaining bits of life from your OLD laptops/pcs, this is the way to go. My circa 2001 pentium 4 512mb laptop has regained some of its pep when I replaced XP with Wary Puppy (Puppy Linux-based). Great again for...

I am not sure what the catch is....hopefully none. That is why I am still waiting for the early adopters to update their reviews. It is no contract, but only uses "T-mobile phones". I was going to purchase a Samsung Galaxy Light....budget smartphone with good specs (from QVC only $150)to bring...

I am thinking of using this T-Mobile MVNO named 35orless. Very new, but seems to be very interesting. There have been a couple positive feedback on this provider on HowardForums, although the duration of the reviewers on the plan has been extremely short. Waiting for them to update their...

Hokiefyd, I occasionally buy dog food from tractor supply. When my mini schnauzer was a pup, I used the 4Health (tractor's house brand), and then their small bites formula when he was older. I also used to buy the Wellness whitefish and sweet potato there. I stopped buying the 4Health brand...

When a lab gives you a (?) question mark instead of a value or reading for coolant level, then I would definitely look elsewhere. I have seen more than a few results like that from [censored].

I am overdue in replacing a single core pc running XP. Hoping to use replacement for internet surfing and streaming video (in place of cable TV). I intend to browse the black friday deals and then possibly wait in line at the store on Thursday (Thanksgiving evening). Has anyone done the "wait in...

what minimum internet speed is needed to get high definition quality (at least 720p)?

I believe I read about this app on BITOG. It transfers everything, including downloaded programs. I haven't used it, but looked into it (will be switching from XP to WIndows 7). pickmeapp.com
