    PC crashing and I need to reboot

    As of last week my PC started freezing on me. After around 30 seconds from booting up (and after the last program, whatever that was) loaded in the system, the computer froze up and I had to reboot.

    Simple examples on book not working. Help needed !!

    Thanks for the advice mate... I will follow it but I would still love to know what I was doing wrong.

    Simple examples on book not working. Help needed !!

    I have just started to learn MySQL, and I'm following the book "Sams teach yourself MySQL in 21 days" Seems that I might have made a mistake getting this book since I just noticed that it was published in 2000. Anyway.. I also noticed that some examples are not working. One of these...

    This might sound like a stupid question but I'm stuck...

    Which key do I press when I need to use the ' character in syntaxes like the following: INSERT INTO mysql VALUES('localhost','databasename', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y'); I am using an American Keyboard and I cannot seem to find the key. P.S... I used cut and paste in...
