There seems to be quite a few computer problems around here.

I would be happy to help if you have issues and patience (depending on how bad the problem).

If you want to run a problem by me - post it here and I'll look it over for you. If it's something that you don't understand my answer to, I'll be happy to PM or IM with you until we are able to get it cleaned up.

There are VERY few true problems that you can't fix yourself if you just know where to start.

<oh - and I can now post 2 references from this site if you're curious...lol!>

Yes - D can be used
I write and fix programs mostly - not network pcs and nat IP addys.

HOWEVER - if you do need something fixed, I'll be happy to help ya.



PR:
Building your PC can be cheaper if you know what you want AND if you are specializing in one thing or another (tons of graphics, using it for gaming, etc)

Most PCs today - unless you are just abusing it in one form or another, have the speed you'll need for normal processing.

I can't tell you of a reputable dealer in Australia so I don't want to lead you too deep into building it yourself. What I can say though is, before you jump into making your own pc, be sure you know who you are buying from and what you are buying. Make sure the different elements are warrantied. Quiz the person that is selling you the parts and see if they can explain it in a way you understand. Don't buy from the first person you talk to or at the first visit.

Good luck!

Not that you care, but.....

IPv4 Addressing Notation
An IPv4 address consists of four bytes (32 bits). These bytes are also known as octets.
For readability purposes, humans typically work with IP addresses in a decimal notation that uses periods to separate each octet. For example, the IP address

00001010 00000000 00000000 00000001
usually appears in the equivalent dotted decimal representation
10.0.0.1
Because each byte is 8 bits in length, each octet in an IP address ranges in value from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 255. Therefore, the full range of IP addresses is from 0.0.0.0 through 255.255.255.255. That represents a total of 4,294,967,296 possible IP addreses.
IPv6 Addressing Notation
IP addressing changes significantly with IPv6. IPv6 addresses are 16 bytes (128 bits) long rather than four bytes (32 bits). That represents more than

300,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
possible addresses! In the coming years, as an increasing number of cell phones, PDAs, and other network appliances expand their networking capability, this much larger IPv6 address space will probably be necessary.
IPv6 addresses are generally written in the following form:

hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh:hhhh
In this notation, pairs of IPv6 bytes are separated by a colon and each byte in turns is represented as an equivalent pair of hexadecimal numbers, like in the following example:
E3D7:0000:0000:0000:51F4:9BC8:C0A8:6420
IPv6 addresses often contain many bytes with a zero value. Shorthand notation in IPv6 removes these values from the text representation (though the bytes are still present in the actual network address) as follows:
E3D7::51F4:9BC8:C0A8:6420
Finally, many IPv6 addresses are extensions of IPv4 addresses. In these cases, the rightmost four bytes of an IPv6 address (the rightmost two byte pairs) may be rewritten in the IPv4 notation. Converting the above example to mixed notation yields
E3D7::51F4:9BC8:192.168.100.32

Here's one. My Laptop has a 1.4ghz pentium M chip in it. I'm still not sure what that would be the equivalent of in Pentium IV.

Oh and what is it about M chips that makes them fast :?

I am running WinXP Home

Here are my problems

1. When I try to print a email I get this box, with this message.

An error has occurred in the script on this page

Line: 1344

Char: 1

Error: Unspecified error.

Code: 0

URL: res://C:\\WINDOWS\system32\shdoclc.dll/preview.dlg


2. Using CD Writing Wizard, I get this message.

Cannot Complete the CD Writing Wizard.

There was a error in the writting process. The disc you have attempted to write to may no longer be useable.

What do you want to do.

Eject this discand try making another CD.

Delete the files that are waiting to be written.

Save files so that I can try again later.


BTW: The disc I am using are brand new.
