BIG desktop = dual monitors = what video card supports?
location:
winsecrets.com - date:
September 8, 2012
I want to run a wide desktop screen and stretch an Excel spreadsheet across both screens, or have one browser on 1 screen and another on the other, etc.
How much to do the above?
Buying 1 card with 2 ports seems like it would be the most cost effective solution, right? Especially if I want the desktop to span both screens...How much (if any) to add TV capability?How much to add gaming?
I have only the mildest interest but it's a nice option if it doesn't cost much extra. Which I'm quite sure is NOT the case! I always feel like it might be good to try out a game - it's a technology that has passed me by (I started programming with IBM 1400 series computers in 1966, so I've seen a lot of growth in computers [and I'm old]).
Equipment:
1280

How to update my video card
location:

November 28, 2010
Hello, I installed Windows 7 Home Premium on an IBM ThinkPad T40. I have been trying to get aero to work, so I did the troubleshooter and this came up: The current video card may support Aero with a driver that is compliant with the Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM). Contact the manufacturer of your computer or video card for a WDDM-compatible driver. So, all I know is that my video card is ATI some thing....where can I find out what I have for a video card?

I did backup online through McAfee from my pc with xp. During a storm, it crashed and I had to buy a new pc with windows 7. I restored the online backup and now the new pc doesn't recognize those files. There were jpegs, word and works documents and music
files. Everything except bitmaps are showing up as thumb database files. What can I do to get them back?

Re-installed Windows XP, How do I update the service packs?
location:

July 10, 2012
I had a computer boot issue and had to re-install Windows XP. I went to the download site (automatic update no longer active) and it advises the 3 service pack updates must be installed in order. When I attempt to install the initial service pack, it aborts
the installation process saying the server is not responding.
How can update Windows XP to SP3?
Or is this no longer possible?
