I just got a new dell studio laptop with windows vista. I can’t get on my home network. I type in the WEP, then it says I’m connected, but don’t have access to the internet. My old laptop worked fine, and this new one did fine with unsecured networks.

As dumb as it sonds, I bought an IPod and downloaded about 190+ songs on ITunes to my old laptop that does not have a cd burner. Does anyone know how I can get the songs to my new laptop (I purchased after I bought my IPod)? I tired connecting my IPod to my new computer and it did’t work. Since the laptop is old I fear I cannot download anymore songs to it. Have I lost those songs forever? Thanks in advanced!

Just bought a new laptop, not sure whether there is a way to take firefox bookmarks from old laptop to new laptop.

Thanks.

Just got a new HP Laptop, brand new, with windows Vista. The first time I used the whole battery, the battery died, and the machine just shut off and lost all of my data. My old laptop would hibernate when the battery died (saving all my data). How do I change this setting? Is there something wrong with my laptop?
Any help would be, really, really appreciated!
I already look in Power Options, the only ones that are there are for closing the lid, and for setting when it sleeps.
This must be specific to Vista.

I took my old laptop in to Best Buy today because it had stopped booting. It is a few years old and they said it is more cost efficeient to buy a new one than to put money into the old one. So, now i’m trying to choose a new notebook computer. I am a teacher but this is my home computer. I want it for music, picture and video playing and editing, School related things (word processing, powerpoint) and internet as well as my financial records etc. I do not want a Mac because it will not be compatible with my computers at school. Any suggestions? What should I be looking for?

I’ve recently recieved a new laptop from work. I work from home sometimes and need to connect to the internet. My laptop shows that I’m connected to the internet, however I can’t get any pages to download. I’ve disabled the firewalls on the computers, but to no avail. My old laptop, I just plugged in wireless card and it connected fine. With the new laptop, It won’t. What am i missing? Thanks!

I need to use a hard drive with windows XP on from an old laptop in a newer laptop. The newer laptop does not recognize the hard drive from the old laptop. How can I get the laptop to recognize the old laptops hard drive?

The hard drive from the newer laptop does not work properly so I want to use the hard drive from an old laptop that already has windows XP installed on it (drivers will not be a problem).

The hard drive does work and should work in the old laptop.

I have a new laptop with a broken screen, and I have an old laptop that is terribly slow but the screen works. Is it possible to take my new laptop and put all of the hardware into the old laptop so I can use that screen? I can’t return my laptop and I don’t want to use an external monitor. Thanks.
