    Laptop going in hibernation mode

    Well, I have a different chipset in my lappy but I solved my heating issue by putting two ballpoint pens underneath it. Sometimes simple and cheap can do the job.

    Help needed selecting comp

    For that, you don't really need a whole lot of power. That being said, more is always better. What is your price range and what OS do you need?

    No root file system is defind - shows when install ubuntu

    Do you have partitions set up? If not, you will need to use the fdisk utility to do that. If you can't get there, you might try getting UBCD from here: Ultimate Boot CD - Overview

    Opening laptop battery

    I did that same job a while back. Yah, they don't make it easy. My experience is that the tolerances is so tight that there is hardly room to get a tool in there in the first place. So tool selection is likely the make or break deal here. Assuming that you are dealing with the same thing...

    what is the simple UPS which can handel to run TV?

    Yah, any UPS will do the job more or less. What you want to do is think about how much run time you want and select the batteries with that in mind. Check the electrical specs on the TV that you have in mind and calculate what your needs are going to be. Also, keep in mind that different sets...

    HP Server 24xCDROM - will support DVD?

    Re: HP Server 24xCDROM Hey Tom, As far as the hardware goes, there really ought to be little problem doing that. The one issue that you could get stuck on would be the physical connections that the motherboard supports. There are a few standards and you will need to get a drive that matches...

    Industrial printer powered from DC

    Well, I did a bit of googling for “replacement ac adapters printer”. I figure that the voltage spec will probably at least point you in the right direction. The best that I can come up with are web stores that sell the things but only for HP. Why that is I don't know, probably just bad...

    I need some help selecting a transformer for really old hardware. So my project is an early 70's synthesizer/keyboard that I am trying to rehab. I had it sort of working before but at one point, I realized that the transformer was damaged and needs to be replaced. While looking at it, the...

    .NET micro framework for embedded projects

    What code do you want to reuse? If it is FOSS, then check the documentation. The binaries are probably fair game. Even if the originator wants you to recompile or if you want to recompile, you should just have to make sure that you follow the license details. If it is MS .net stuff, well...

    Installing Windows xp on laptop

    Hello, I checked the Dell web site and it appears that they do support XP for the studio 1555. That is somewhat important as newer hardware sometimes does not have drivers for older operating systems. That being said, how inverted are you in what you have already done with your lappy? I ask...

    Importing CDs to my computer

    Hello there. Allow me to recommend my personal favorite program. CDEX. It is about the simplest interface that you are likely to come by. Once you have set the options that you like, ripping can be done with only a couple of mouse clicks. Also, you can save the files to nearly any format...
