    Outlook disconnects

    We're having an isolated issue using Outlook in our office. We have Mi8 hosting our emails and all 5 employees share the same email. Recently, one laptop continually disconnects and reconnects in Outlook, which makes it difficult to save and send emails. It uses a wired connection when in...

    Outlook File bar

    When making a new email using MS Outlook, the "File, Edit, View..." bar that is usually at the top of the page is not placed there. It is actually placed 4 lines down on the email body portion and words are hidden under the bar when typing. Is there a way to move this bar? There is no handle...

My screen developed 4 light lines on the right hand side and causes changes in my display if I enlarge a window or if I move part of a window into that area.

    Radeon 9250 Hangups

    My PC Chips M841LR has a built in video card and I purchased a Diamond ATI Radeon 9250 PCI 256MB card as an upgrade. My first problem with the installation was the bad CD driver it came along with. I then tried going to the Diamond website, which also had a bad release of the driver. ATI had...

    I reformatted my brother-in-law's computer and re-installed XP and all the required drivers. For some reason, I cannot hear anything. A SoundBlaster Audigy is being used with no onboard sound card. I had Windows automatically install the correct driver and no progress. I uninstalled all of...

    Lines on my screen

    There are lines showing up on my screens that are distorting my display. I noticed this after running Lavasoft Ad-Aware and I deleted everything that the app found. Could this have deleted certain window files or is this something totally different? If it is a windows file, I can easily...

    External or Internal HD?

    I have always had a dual HD setup for my last 2 computers. One for programs/apps and the second all for storage. A while back, someone told me this was the route to go in case your hard drive crashes and it would not affect the storage HD. My comps have been fine so far just because I have...

    Power supply issue

    I'm upgrading an older Gateway computer that had a PS that went out. In buying a new PS, I noticed that most do not have the 6-pin connector that is used for the motherboard's auxiliary power. Is this not needed since I went from 250W to 420W? Am i getting enough from the 20-pin connector? I...

    Hi, I reformatted and installed win98 to my old computer that I'm giving to my cousin. I did this using the setup of my newer computer (new monitor, mouse, KB) and everything went smoothly. When I gave it to my cousin, he used another monitor that he had and came across a boot display i've...

    Can't use various internet applications.

    I just bought a new computer with an AMD Athlon XP1700 CPU which is more then capable of running what I need to do. Here are my problems which might be kind of long: 1) When I first installed ME, I had 2 error messages regarding HWinfo.exe and control.dll. I never had these problems before...
